To provide electronic equipment whose lid can be prevented from being suddenly opened and can be easily opened as occasion demands.
A cover member 12 is provided with a substantially L-shaped first guide hole 12c, and the moving direction of an operating member 11 between a first position and a second position and the moving direction of the operating member 11 between the second position and a third position are made different from each other. A lock plate 13 is displaced only when the operating member 11 moves between the second position and the third position. That is, the displacement direction of the operating member 11 when the engagement between an engaging portion 13f of the lock plate 13 and an engaging rib 21 is released is different from the displacement direction of the operating member 11 when the displacement of the lock plate 13 is regulated/released, so that the lock can be prevented from being easily released due to an impact or the like applied from the external.
