The protector body 3 is formed in a substantially U-shape by integrally forming a pair of side walls 9a and 9b in the same direction from both sides of the bottom portion 7. The lid 5 has a flat plate shape, and both sides thereof are bent in the same direction.
a and 13b are integrally molded. Locking protrusions 15 are provided on the lock arms 11 in a protruding manner.

The space between 17 becomes narrower. Therefore, the pair of lock arms 1
The distance between the locking holes 19 and 19 is narrower than the distance between the locking holes 1 and 11, and it becomes difficult to insert the lock arm 11 into the locking hole 19, so that the locking work is troublesome.

The thickness of the connecting portion between the bottom portion 7 and the side wall 9a is ½ of the thickness t of the bottom portion 7. Further, in the protector shown in FIG. 5B, the thickness of the bottom portion 7 immediately before the side wall 9a is set to the thickness t of the bottom portion 7.
It is set to 1/2.

When accommodating the wire harness in the protector body 3, it is necessary to break and remove the fall-in prevention member 23 from the protector body 3, which increases the number of working steps and wastefully requires the member (the fall-in prevention member 23). In addition, since the structure of the mold for molding the protector 25 is complicated, the manufacturing cost is high.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-1997 proposes a protector 29 in which a collapse prevention rib 27 having a substantially triangular shape is provided outside a continuous portion of a bottom portion 7 and a pair of side walls 9a and 9b, as shown in FIG. In this protector 29, when the temperature drops after molding, the triangular fall-in prevention ribs 27 cause the side walls 9 a, 9 to fall.
By pulling b outward, the collapse of the side walls 9a and 9b inward is reduced.

品の変形防止構造の提供を目的とする。However, although the protector 29 can prevent the side walls 9a and 9b from being collapsed after molding, when the upper portion of the protector body 3 is closed by the lid body 5,
It is difficult to insert the lock arm 11 into the locking hole 19. That is, when the lock arm 11 of the lid 5 is inserted into the locking hole 19, the side walls 9a and 9b are pushed inward when the holder body 3 is held by both sides and aligned, and falls.
Since the distance between the locking holes 19 and 19 is narrower than that between the lock arms 11 and 11, the lock arm 11 is locked into the locking holes 19 and 19.
Hard to insert into. Therefore, if the lock arm 11 of the lid body 5 is to be inserted into the locking hole 19 without the protector body 3, it is difficult to insert the lock arm 11 into the locking hole 19 because there is no standard for positioning. Therefore, in the present invention, in a substantially U-shaped resin molded product in which a pair of side walls are integrally molded in the same direction from both sides of the bottom wall, it is possible to reduce the collapse of the side walls and to prevent the other side from engaging with the locking portion. An object of the present invention is to provide a structure for preventing deformation of a resin molded product that can easily lock the lock portion.

In a structure for preventing deformation of a resin molded product, which is provided at an end part of a lock part that engages with a mating locking part,
At least one of the side walls is continuously formed integrally with the side wall with a collapse prevention rib that prevents the side wall from falling toward the bottom wall from the lock portion.

の目安となり、容易に係合させることが出来る。According to the first aspect of the present invention, the collapse prevention member is integrally formed on the side wall from the lock portion toward the bottom wall, so that after the resin molded product is molded, the collapse prevention member shrinks to form the inside of the side wall. Falling into the area is reduced. That is, when the molten resin is injected into the mold, the resin forming the plate member is first filled with the resin, and the previously filled resin comes into contact with the surface of the mold. For this reason, cooling starts first from the portion forming the plate member. As a result, the contraction of the plate member portion due to cooling starts first, and the side wall portion where cooling starts later than the plate member portion is pulled outward, and the collapse of the side wall to the inside is reduced. Also, when engaging the lock part with the mating locking part, by pushing the part where the collapse prevention rib is formed from the bottom wall side, the collapse preventing rib aligns the lock part with the mating locking part. It serves as a guide and can be easily engaged.

の倒れ込み量をより少なくすることが出来る。According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the collapse preventing rib is formed by the plate member standing upright in a direction substantially perpendicular to the side wall, the collapse of the side wall to the inside after molding is reduced. In this case, by projecting the two plate members substantially parallel to each other from the side wall, the force of pulling the side wall outward when contracting due to cooling of the plate member acts strongly, so that the amount of collapse of the side wall to the inside can be further reduced. Can be done.

で、両側の側壁及び底壁が補強される。According to the third aspect of the present invention, the collapse prevention rib is formed continuously from the lock portion at the end of one side wall to the circumference of the bottom wall to the lock portion at the end of the other side wall. It is possible to further reduce the collapse of the side wall to the inside. In addition, when the locking portion is engaged with the locking portion on the other side, if the collapse prevention rib that goes around the bottom wall is pressed,
This pressing force is transmitted to the collapse prevention rib and directly applied to the lock portion, so that the lock portion can be easily engaged with the locking portion of the other party. Further, since the collapse prevention ribs are formed from one side wall to the other side wall around the bottom wall, the side walls and the bottom wall on both sides are reinforced.

り、コストを低減することが出来る。Further, the connector cover 31 of this embodiment is
The fall-in prevention ribs 53 and 61 reduce the fall of the side walls 37 and 39 into the inside after injection molding with resin. That is, when the melted resin is injected into the mold by integrally forming the collapse prevention ribs 53 and 61 on the outside of the side walls 37 and 39, the collapse prevention rib 5
The portions 3, 61 are filled first and come into contact with the mold, and cooling starts first. Therefore, the collapse prevention ribs 5 are delayed from the side wall portions where cooling starts later than the collapse prevention ribs 53 and 61.
Side walls 3, 3 and 61 contract later, because they contract earlier.
7 and 39 are pulled outward, and as a result, the collapse of the side walls 37 and 39 inward is reduced. Further, the connector cover 31 of the present embodiment has the side walls 37, 39.
Since the collapse prevention ribs 53 and 61 are formed on the outer surface of the side wall, the side walls 37 and 39 can be reinforced. Therefore, the thickness of the side walls 37 and 39 can be reduced, and the cost can be reduced.
