However, in this example, since the locking portion 6 for locking with the bracket 13 is provided on the mounting member 2 side, when the holder 1 is mounted on the bracket 13, the closed state of the mounting member 2 is also locked by the bracket 13. As a result, the closed state of the mounting member 2 is locked by the two lock mechanisms.

Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, an external force in the opening direction of the mounting member 2 is applied to the wire harness W, and the lock receiving portion 16 is damaged, thereby causing the lock claw 1 to be damaged.
Even when the lock members 5 and 15 are disengaged from the lock receiving portions 16 and 16, the closed state of the attachment member 2 and the holding member 3 is still maintained, and the wire harness W is reliably prevented from being detached from the holder 1. Is done. And this holder 1
Is used for clamping a wire harness in, for example, an engine room of a vehicle, the wire harness can always be arranged neatly in the engine room.

Further, the closed state of the mounting member 2 with respect to the holding member 3 is held by the two lock mechanisms, so that the wire harness W can be held more firmly than in the conventional case.

Next, a modified example of the bracket 13 will be described. The bracket 13 'shown in FIG. 6 is used to hold the wire harness W or the like at a position separated from the body 14 by a certain distance, for example, to avoid other components, and the rising piece is formed longer than the bracket 13. ing. A locking hole 13a is formed near the upper end of the rising piece, and a cut-and-raised claw 13b for preventing disengagement is formed below the locking hole 13a. The bracket 13 'thus formed is attached to a predetermined position of the body 14 in an engine room, for example. Note that the holder 1 itself does not need to be changed.

According to the bracket 13 ', the leading end of the rising piece is inserted into the bracket receiving slit 7 of the holding member 3, and the holding member 3 is cut and raised so that the holding member 1 is mounted on the claw 13b. Is set, and after the wire harness W is mounted on the holding member 3, the mounting member 2
