1 . An indoor unit of an air conditioner comprising:
 a wire passing portion that passes a cable;   a covering member that is movable between a covering position where the covering member covers at least a portion of the wire passing portion, and an opening position where the wire passing portion is opened;   a sliding member that is movable along a sliding direction between a restricting position that restricts a movement of the covering member, and a releasing position that allows the movement of the covering member, and   a first support member that has a head that supports the sliding member in the restricting position from a bottom side, and a shoulder portion with a diameter that is smaller than the head; wherein   the covering member has a first locking portion in which a first insertion hole that passes the shoulder portion through is formed,   the first locking portion is positioned in a top side more than the sliding member, and   in an up-down direction, when a dimension of the shoulder portion is La1, a thickness of a portion supported by the head out of thicknesses of the sliding member is Ta1, and a thickness of the first locking portion is Tb1,   La1>Ta1+Tb1 is satisfied.   
     
     
         2 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 1 , wherein
 an inner diameter of the first insertion hole is larger than an outer diameter of the head.   
     
     
         3 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 1 , wherein
 a notch portion that passes the shoulder portion through is formed in the sliding member, and   the notch portion is open towards one side in the sliding direction.   
     
     
         4 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 1  further comprising:
 a second support member that supports the sliding member in the restricting position and the sliding position from the bottom side; wherein 
 the covering member has a second locking portion in which a second insertion hole that passes the second support member through is formed, and 
 the second locking portion is positioned in a top side more than the sliding member. 
 
     
     
         5 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 4 , wherein
 in the sliding member, a long hole is formed extending along the sliding direction, and   the second support member is passed through the long hole.   
     
     
         6 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 5 , wherein
 the long hole has a pair of side surfaces that extend in the sliding direction, and   at least on a part of the pair of side surfaces, a protrusion that protrudes in an orthogonal direction that is orthogonal to both the sliding direction and the up-down direction is formed,   the protrusion goes over the second support member in the sliding direction when the sliding member is sliding between the restricting position and the releasing position.   
     
     
         7 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 6 , wherein
 when a gap between the pair of side surfaces is W2, a width of a portion of the long hole where the protrusions are formed is Wt2, and an outer diameter of the portion passed through the long hole out of the second support member is Dc2,   Wt2<Dc2<W2 is satisfied.   
     
     
         8 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the covering member has a guide groove that extends along the sliding direction, and   the sliding member has a guide claw that is locked to the guide groove.   
     
     
         9 . The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to  claim 1 , wherein
 when the sliding member is in the restricting position, a first blind that covers at least a portion of the first support member from the bottom side is formed in the sliding member.
