ABSTRACT:
Provided is a structure for housing an electrical junction box in a housing box by inserting the electrical junction box into the housing box from above and also for fixing the electrical junction box to the housing box so as to prevent slipping-off thereof by engagement between engagement parts provided on external side surfaces of the electrical junction box and engagement parts provided on internal side surfaces of the housing box, both of which face each other in parallel with an insertion direction in insertion of the electrical junction box. Moreover, groove-like depressions extended along the insertion direction into the housing box are provided in the external side surfaces of the electrical junction box, and engagement convex parts are provided in the depressions. Furthermore, engagement projections engaged with the engagement convex parts are provided on the internal side surfaces of the housing box. As depressions behind the engagement convex parts in the insertion direction, die-releasing holes for injection molding for forming locking parts of the electrical junction box are used.
