  • the connecting portion 14b consisting of the through hole 27 and the gate 38 can be miniaturized and a simple connection structure can be obtained.
  • the long side 27b of the through hole 27 is disposed in parallel with the steps 28 and 28a, so that the width of the flange 26 can be narrowed. Since the overlapping portion can be reduced, the first cowl 15 and the second cowl 16 can be miniaturized.

  • the connecting portion 14 b tends to shift in the Y direction of FIG. 7.
  • the long side 27b of the through hole 27 is disposed in parallel with the Y direction, and the primary vibration is received by the surface of the foot 38a of the gate 38 by the side 39d of the foot 38a contacting the short side 27a.
  • the alignment line 14a is disposed in parallel with the Y direction even if there is a displacement in the Y direction, it is possible to prevent the deformation of the connecting portion 14b that would cause the alignment portion to open. Since the alignment line 14 c is inclined with respect to the Y direction, the deviation tends to occur also in the direction orthogonal to the long side 27 b of the through hole 27. However, in this case, the end face 39 c of the foot 38 a is blocked by coming into contact with the long side 27 b of the through hole 27. Further, the shift in the direction of the long side 27b is prevented by the contact of the side surface 39d of the foot 38a with the short side 27a.
  • the front portion 30 is fitted into the recess 25 and pressed in the direction of the alignment line 14c. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the deformation of the connecting portion 14b such that the joint portion is opened also at the joint line 14c.
  • the engagement rib 45 also abuts the through hole inner surface 26c at the long side 27b and slides against the through hole inner surface 26c, so that the wear of the engagement rib 45 is reduced.
  • the engagement rib 45 is a member for preventing movement of a longitudinal middle portion of the long side 27b of the through hole 27 which is not in contact with the foot portion 38a, but is provided temporarily on the short side 27a side orthogonal to the Y direction. Also, since the friction between the short side 27a and the engagement rib 45 due to vibration increases and wears in a relatively short time, it is necessary to replace the clip 40 itself in a relatively short time. However, by arranging the engagement rib 45 on the long side 27 b side, such wear can be reduced, and the durability of the clip 40 can be enhanced to lengthen the replacement cycle.
  • the through hole 27 is rectangular and the long side 27 b is provided, the movement in the longitudinal middle portion of the long side 27 b can be blocked by the engagement rib 45, and thus the clip 40 having the engagement rib 45 The use itself of the rectangular through hole 27 can be enabled.
  • the connecting portion 14b when receiving a large external force in the direction to open the connecting portion 14b, ie, receiving a force in the direction orthogonal to the mating lines 14a and 14c, the end face 39c of the foot 38a abuts on the long side 27b of the through hole 27, This force can be received by the long side 27b, and the shift in the direction in which the connecting portion 14b opens can be prevented. Therefore, even if a large external force is applied to the tank cowl 14 and a force acts in the direction of opening the connecting portion 14b, the connecting portion 14b can be made difficult to open. Furthermore, the stress applied to the through hole 27 can be reduced by receiving the end face 39c of the foot 38a by the long side 27b.
