Lens barrel and exterior housing

Abstract

Provided are a lens barrel and an exterior housing with a high appearance dignity and an excellent strength. A switch pedestal (20) includes four fixation metal fitting mounting shafts (25) that protrude to the inside of a fixation frame (10) through an opening portion (13) provided in the fixation frame (10). A fixation portion (26) is provided at a distal end of each fixation metal fitting mounting shaft (25). A fixation metal fitting (30) is attachably and detachably mounted onto the fixation portion (26). The fixation metal fitting (30) is formed of a leaf spring. The fixation metal fitting (30) mounted onto the fixation metal fitting mounting shafts (25) is engaged with an inner peripheral surface of the fixation frame (10) with a spring portion (32) elastically deformed. As a result, a force that pulls the switch pedestal (20) into the inside of the fixation frame (10) acts and the switch pedestal (20) is fixed to the fixation frame (10) with a flange portion (24) of the switch pedestal (20) pressed against an outer peripheral surface of the fixation frame (10).
