A double-shot molded resin article comprises a primary molding part and a secondary molding part. The secondary molding part is molded from a thermoplastic resin having a melting point higher than the melting point of the primary molding thermoplastic resin. The primary molding part has a plurality of raised portions formed upon its surface so as to be fusion bonded to the secondary molding part. These raised portions are fused by means of the secondary molten resin at the time of the secondary molding process, whereby the primary and secondary molding parts are fusion-bonded to each other.

A locking device includes a striker and a latch. The striker projects from the back side of an openable wall which is hinged on a housing. The latch is secured to the edge of an opening of the housing so that it faces the striker for engaging with and holding the striker in a snap-engaged state when the openable wall is closed. The latch is rotatably mounted in the housing so that the rotation thereof follows the direction of insertion of the striker into the latch.
