An accessory includes a main body including a communication module configured to communicate with a predetermined network, and a transmission member that includes a window exposed to an outside and configured to pass a predetermined optical signal. The main body further includes an optical signal light-emitting unit located inward of the window of the transmission member and configured to emit the predetermined optical signal in a transmission direction, and a side member defining a circumferential external appearance of the main body and including an inclined surface that slopes with respect to a central axis passing through the main body in a vertical direction and that defines a transmission member location hole configured to receive the transmission member. The window includes a central part parallel with the central axis, and the predetermined optical signal emitted from the optical signal light-emitting unit perpendicularly passes through the central part.

1. An accessory comprising: a main body that includes a communication module configured to communicate with a predetermined network; anda transmission member that includes a window that is exposed to an outside and configured to pass a predetermined optical signal,wherein the main body further includes: an optical signal light-emitting unit that is located inward of the window of the transmission member and configured to emit the predetermined optical signal in a transmission direction, anda side member that defines a circumferential external appearance of the main body and that includes an inclined surface that slopes with respect to a central axis passing through the main body in a vertical direction, the inclined surface defining a transmission member location hole that is configured to receive the transmission member,wherein the window includes a central part that is parallel with the central axis, andwherein the predetermined optical signal emitted from the optical signal light-emitting unit perpendicularly passes through the central part of the window. 2. The accessory of claim 1, wherein the window includes an edge that protrudes radially outward to thereby correspond to the inclined surface. 3. The accessory of claim 2, wherein the inclined surface becomes more distant from the central axis in an upward direction. 4. The accessory of claim 3, wherein the window further includes a vertical portion located at the central part and at a lower portion the window, the vertical portion including a surface parallel with the central axis. 5. The accessory of claim 4, wherein the surface of the vertical portion is aligned with an outer surface of the side member located below the transmission member location hole. 6. The accessory of claim 3, wherein the window further includes circumferential portions that protrude radially outward from portions of a circumference of the window. 7. The accessory of claim 6, wherein the circumferential portions include: an upper circumferential portion that protrudes radially outward from an upper part of the window; andside circumferential portions that protrude radially outward from side parts of the window, each of the side circumferential portions becoming more distant from the central axis in the upward direction. 8. The accessory of claim 2, wherein an outer surface of the edge of the window is aligned with the inclined surface of the side member. 9. The accessory of claim 1, wherein the optical signal light-emitting unit includes: a proximity sensor that is configured to emit a first predetermined optical signal in a first transmission direction; anda control signal light-emitting unit that is configured to emit a second predetermined optical signal in a second transmission direction. 10. The accessory of claim 1, wherein the transmission member further includes a disposition guide that protrudes inward from an inner surface of the window, the disposition guide being configured to guide the optical signal light-emitting unit to a set position relative to the window. 11. The accessory of claim 10, wherein the disposition guide includes a rib that extends vertically and that partitions the inner surface of the window into multiple portions, each of the multiple portions being configured to receive each of a plurality of the optical signal light-emitting units. 12. The accessory of claim 1, wherein the transmission member further includes a catching portion that extends from a rear edge of the window, that contacts an inner wall of the side member, and that is configured to restrict the transmission member from escaping from the transmission member location hole. 13. The accessory of claim 12, wherein the optical signal light-emitting unit includes a module case that contacts an inner surface of the window. 14. The accessory of claim 1, further comprising: a container including a main body-coupling portion that is located at an upper portion of the container and separably coupled to the main body,wherein the container comprises an external coupling portion that is configured to couple the container to an external object, andwherein the main body further includes: an exposed portion that is configured, based on the main body being coupled to the container, to expose to the outside, andan insertion portion that is configured to be received by the main body-coupling portion. 15. An accessory comprising: a main body that includes a communication module configured to communicate with a predetermined network; anda transmission member that includes a window that is exposed to an outside and configured to pass a predetermined optical signal,wherein the main body further includes: an optical signal light-emitting unit that is located inward of the window and configured to emit the predetermined optical signal in a transmission direction, anda side member that defines a circumferential external appearance of the main body, the side member defining a transmission member location hole that is configured to receive the transmission member, andwherein the transmission member further includes a disposition guide that protrudes from an inner surface of the window, the disposition guide being configured to guide the optical signal light-emitting unit to a set position relative to the transmission member. 16. The accessory of claim 15, wherein the disposition guide comprises a rib that extends vertically and that partitions the inner surface of the window into multiple portions, each of the multiple portions being configured to receive each of a plurality of the optical signal light-emitting units. 17. The accessory of claim 15, wherein the transmission member further includes a catching portion that extends from a rear edge of the window, that contacts an inner wall of the side member, and that is configured to restrict the transmission member from escaping from the transmission member location hole. 18. The accessory of claim 17, wherein the optical signal light-emitting unit comprises a module case that contacts the inner surface of the window. 19. An accessory comprising: a main body that includes a communication module configured to communicate with a predetermined network; anda transmission member that includes a window that is exposed to an outside and configured to pass a predetermined optical signal,wherein the main body comprises: an optical signal light-emitting unit configured to emit the predetermined optical signal in a transmission direction, anda side member that defines a circumferential external appearance of a circumference of the main body and that includes an inclined surface that slopes with respect to a central axis passing through the main body in a vertical direction, the inclined surface defining a transmission member location hole that is configured to receive the transmission member, andwherein the window includes a central part that is parallel with the central axis.
