ABSTRACT:
A mounting structure of lock pieces on a connector hood includes L-shaped lock piece support portions projecting from side surfaces of the connector hood and having free ends rising upwardly, respectively, and L-shaped window portions provided in the lock pieces and having provisional window portions and complete window portions, respectively. Each of the provisional window portions has a width for receiving one of the L-shaped lock piece support portions and a height much more than a thickness of the L-shaped lock piece support portion. On the other hand, each of the complete window portions is continuous to the provisional window portion at its upper end and has a width and a height somewhat more than the width and the thickness of the L-shaped lock piece support portion, respectively. With this arrangement, the lock pieces are able to be mounted on the metal hood by once inserting the lock pieces into the provisional window portions, respectively, and then moving the lock pieces into the complete window portions of the lock pieces.
