Image reading apparatus, moving body fixing structure, and electronic equipment

A moving body fixing structure comprising:

• a moving body on which a catch receiving portion is formed and which is movable in a predetermined direction;
• a fixing body on which a catching portion is formed to catch the catch receiving portion in order to fix the moving body in a predetermined position, and which is movable in a direction substantially orthogonal to the predetermined direction;
• a first position retaining portion for engaging a projected portion, formed on either one of a housing and the fixing body, with a first recessed portion formed on the other so that the fixing body can be retained in a position in which the catching portion catches the catch receiving portion;
• and
• a second position retaining portion for engaging the projected portion with a second recessed portion, formed on either the housing or the fixing body on which the first recessed portion is formed, so that the fixing body can be retained in a position in which the catching portion does not catch the catch receiving portion.

Electronic equipment comprising:

• a moving body on which a catch receiving portion is formed and which is movable in a predetermined direction;
• a fixing body on which a catching portion is formed to catch the catch receiving portion in order to fix the moving body in a predetermined position, and which is movable in a direction substantially orthogonal to the predetermined direction;
• a first position retaining portion for engaging a projected portion, formed on either one of a housing and the fixing body, with a first recessed portion formed on the other so that the fixing body can be retained in a position in which the catching portion catches the catch receiving portion;
• and
• a second position retaining portion for engaging the projected portion with a second recessed portion, formed on either the housing or the fixing body on which the first recessed portion is formed, so that the fixing body can be retained in a position in which the catching portion does not catch the catch receiving portion.
