Then, when the cover-attached cover 1 is further rotated around the side portion 144 as the rotation center, the distal end portion 12 is detached from the wall portion 30 as shown in FIG. Thereby, as shown in FIG.4 (b), the cover with a fastener 1 can be removed from the wall part 30. FIG. Here, as shown in FIG. 5, the distance l ₄ from the side part 144 of the arm part 14 to the tip part of the tip part 12 (the position facing the side part 144 through the center of the arc) is an opening 300. It is preferable to form with a length equivalent to the width L of (including the same and substantially the same concept).

  In addition, since the front-end | tip part 12 has circular arc shape by planar view, the front-end | tip part 12 moves the opening 300 smoothly. Further, since the loop portion 11 and the distal end portion 12 include the space 18 inside and are formed of an elastic material, even if the loop portion 11 and the distal end portion 12 are deformed when passing through the opening 300, the fastener After removing the attached cover 1 from the wall part 30, the loop part 11 and the front-end | tip part 12 return to the original shape.
