A bundle 11 of electric wires is contained in a protector (20) which is a tubular body formed by assembling a main body (21) and a cover (22) together, and the main body (21) and the cover (22) are fixed to each other by means of locking parts (30). On this occasion, backlash preventive locking parts 31 each having backlash preventing means (34) are arranged in at least two positions, in place of the locking parts 30 which are arranged on the main body (21) and the cover (22) at a determined interval in a longitudinal direction. As the results, backlashes of the locking parts can be eliminated by a simple structure, and a twist of the protector can be prevented.

What is claimed is: 1. A locking structure for a protector comprising: a main body and a cover assembled together to form a tubular body capable of containing a bundle of electric wires; and a plurality of locking parts for enabling said main body and said cover to be engaged with each other, said locking parts being arranged on said main body and said cover at a determined interval in a longitudinal direction thereof, at least two of said plurality of locking parts serving as backlash preventive locking parts, each backlash preventive locking parts having a backlash preventing latching piece which mates with an opposing latched part with an interference fit therebetween, said backlash preventive locking parts arranged in at least two positions out of positions where said locking parts are to be arranged. 2. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 1, wherein said backlash preventive locking parts are arranged at least in opposite end parts in the longitudinal direction of said main body and said cover. 3. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 1, wherein said tubular body formed by assembling said main body and said cover together is crooked to define a crooked part, and that said backlash preventive locking parts are arranged near the crooked part of said tubular body. 4. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 1, wherein said backlash preventive locking parts are arranged so as to be opposed to each other along a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of said tubular body. 5. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 1, wherein said latching piece is adapted to be inserted into said latched part, and wherein a width of said latching piece is slightly larger than an inner width of said latched part, and said latching piece is provided, on its both end edges in a lateral direction, with tapered parts which are gradually reduced in thickness in the lateral direction of the latching piece. 6. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 5, wherein said backlash preventive locking parts are arranged at least in opposite end parts in the longitudinal direction of said main body and said cover. 7. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 5, wherein said tubular body formed by assembling said main body and said cover together is crooked to define a crooked part, and that said backlash preventive locking parts are arranged near the crooked part of said tubular body. 8. A locking structure for a protector as claimed in claim 5, wherein said backlash preventive locking parts are arranged so as to be opposed to each other along a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of said tubular body.
