Abstract
Since an opening of a lower cover and a side wall of an upper cover are formed in a trapezoid shape so that an upper width is larger than a lower width, a packing between fitting portions is suitably compressed on right and left inclined portions on the side wall and the opening only by fitting the upper cover to the lower cover from above. As a result, high waterproofing can be obtained.
