Original Abstract Submitted
A control apparatus includes a housing, a holding plate pivotable between a first state at which a first surface of the holding plate is close to the first panel and a second state at which the first surface is spaced apart from the first panel, and a locking member. The locking member includes a locking plate, a bush and a pin. The locking plate is pivotably supported so as to be pivotable about an opening of the engaging portion in a state in which the engaging portion is held between a collar portion of the bush and the first panel of the housing.
