An electronic device housing comprises a cover with a locking groove, an operation portion with a locking portion corresponding to the locking groove, and a housing to which the cover is attached. The cover is slidably mounted on the housing. Both the locking groove of the cover and the locking portion have portions inclined with respect to the cover, for instance, a portion shaped as a parallelogram in cross-section. The operation portion has a portion that slides in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the cover. With this sliding portion, the locking portion is slidably inserted into and withdrawn from the locking groove. When the locking portion is fitted into the locking groove so that the cover is mounted on the housing, the cover cannot be dropped from the housing. The operation portion is attached to a portion of the housing, and is moved downwardly by depressing the housing from the upper direction. When the cover is mounted on the housing and the operation portion is depressed downwardly, the locking portion fitted to the locking groove of the cover also moves downward. A wedge effect is produced by the force exerted between the locking portion and an inclined edge located opposite to the locking groove. The cover then slides along the removing direction in response to force produced by this wedge effect. As a consequence, the cover may be removed, by simply taking it out from the housing without sliding the locking piece. Since the cover moves downward when the operation portion is depressed, the pawl of the engaging piece for preventing the cover from being dropped is automatically released from the housing and removed.
