ABSTRACT:
To prevent the disengagement of housings by a simple construction, four projections 14 stand on the upper surface of a lower housing 1, and round holes 14 into which the corresponding projections 14 are fitted are formed in the lower surface of the upper housing 2. The end face of each projection 14 is bevelled to form a tapered guide surface 15. When the upper housing 2 is placed on the lower housing 1, the housings 1, 2 are locked by the lock portions 5, and the projections 14 and the round holes 16 provided on the surfaces of the housings 1, 2, which come together are engaged in four positions. In this way, the relative rotation of the housings 1, 2 is prevented and such a force as to elastically deform the lock portions 5 does not act. The projections 14 and the round holes 16 are engaged with each other by being guided by the guide surfaces 15, thereby easily positioning the housings 1, 2. Thus, the housings 1, 2 can be smoothly placed one over the other.
