[0010] If the case upper is unduly vigorously lifted when the case upper is removed from the case lower, the lead wire comes off the temporary fixing member before the lead wire is completely extended. Since an impact is generated when the lead wire comes off the temporary fixing member, the worker who is pulling up the case upper senses this impact, notices the existence of the lead wire, and then slowly removes the case upper. . Therefore, no excessive stress is applied to the lead wire.

In the toilet seat box according to the second aspect, exactly the same operation is achieved by holding the connector provided in the middle of the lead wire on the temporary fixing member. In addition,
In general, the connector is a block made of a synthetic resin, so that the connector can be pinched and easily attached to the temporary fixing member.
