Abstract
The invention provides an electronic device which has a connecting means for assembling a front and top panels, and a position restricting means for restricting the position of the top panel. The connecting means is composed of a tongue block extending substantially horizontally with respect to the top panel from a front end of a bent block bent downward from the front side of the top panel, an insertion block extending downward from the end of the bent block by cutting off a portion of the tongue block, and a supporting block having an insertion hole to which is fit the insertion block extended rearward from the inner side of the front panel. The position restricting means is composed of a through hole formed to the bent block and a projection fit to the through hole extended rearward from the inner side of the front panel.
