An engagement regulating portion is provided so as to regulate the movement in the disengaging direction of the slide member and the lock member in a state in which the engaging portion and the engagement receiving portion are engaged. By removing the regulation by the engagement regulating portion, the engaging portion and the engagement receiving portion are disengaged from each other.
