A waterproof structure that is provided on a device includes a waterproof member. A pipe with no flash of a parting line, which is formed by extrusion-molding an elastic material such as a rubber or a resin, is used as the waterproof member. The waterproof member is interposed at a coupling part between members that is to be waterproofed, such that terminal-end faces of the pipe are disposed to be opposed to each other with their center (axes) being aligned (coaxial). When pressure is applied by engagement between the to-be-waterproofed members, the terminal-end faces of the pipe are put in close contact with each other. Alternatively, terminal-end portions of the pipe are juxtaposed with their centers being made parallel, and when pressure is applied, side faces of the terminal-end portions are put in close contact with each other. Thus, waterproofing is effected.
