Abstract

See full text

A cylindrical member holding apparatus which is flexible in an axial direction of a cylindrical member and resists being deformed in directions perpendicular to the axial direction of the cylindrical member. A plurality of elastically-deformable supporting portions are disposed on respective opposite sides of the cylindrical member held by a holder portion in a direction of an axis of the cylindrical member and connect a base portion and the holder portion together. The supporting portions have such a shape as to be more easily elastically deformed in a first direction than in a second and third direction. The first direction is the axial direction of the cylindrical member, the second direction is a direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and connects the holder portion and the base portion together, and the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and also perpendicular to the second direction.
