Abstract
A protection cover includes a lid ( ) and a cover ( ) which have interfering portions ( ), which do not interfere with each other while the cover ( ) is being displaced from an exposing position to a protecting position, if the lid ( ) is mounted properly in a closing position with respect to the accommodating portion ( ). However the interfering portions ( ) interfere to prevent the cover ( ) from reaching the proper closing position when the lid ( ) is mounted improperly. Thus, whether the lid ( ) is mounted properly on the accommodating portion ( ) can be detected based on whether or not the interfering portions ( ) interfere with each other while the cover ( ) is being displaced to the pretecting position.
