Abstract:
Fixtures (100a, 100b) for securing an object (2) onto a member (1) to be secured are provided, the fixtures (100a, 100b) comprising: male members (4, 5) which protrude from the member (1) to be secured; and female members (3, 6) which are disposed on the object (2) and can engage with the male members (4, 5). The female members (3, 6) comprise: cylindrical wall parts (311, 711) which accommodate the male members (4, 5) by elastically deforming radially outward when a tip end part (3a) of the female members (3, 6) comes into contact with the male members (4, 5); and locking mechanisms (32, 72) which lock the male members (4, 5) within the wall parts (311, 711) by limiting the elastic deformation of the wall parts (311, 711).
