Abstract
Areas at outer edge sides of a draw-out area for wires (13) out of a rear end surface (10R) of a housing (10) serve as operation surfaces (14) used to push the housing (10) forward. Areas of the outer periphery of a rear end portion of the housing (10) corresponding to and before the operation surfaces (14) are recessed to form outward forming grooves (15). The housing (10) is formed with bores (18) by further recessing parts of groove bottom surfaces (17) of the outward facing grooves (15). Inward facing projections (26) engageable with the outward facing grooves (15) are formed on the inner surface of a wire cover (20). Each locking projection (26) is formed with restricting projections (27) engageable with the bores (18).
