Abstract
A retainer,comprises a pair of half members,U and,L connected to each other by a hinge,When the retainer,is fitted to a housing,in a state where the half members,U and,L are combined, the retainer,retains rubber caps,from the rear so as to restrict the disengagement of the rubber caps,Restricting portions,U,,U,,L and,L are formed on abutment surfaces,U,U,U,L,L,and,L,of the half members,U and,L, respectively. When the half members,U and,L are combined, the restricting portions,U,,U,,L and,L are retained by the restricting portions on the mating half member, so that the relative displacement of the pair of half members,U and,L in directions along abutment surfaces,U,U,U,L,L,and,L,can be restricted.
