Wire harness

Abstract

Provided is a wire harness which enables at least part of a mark formed on the outer surface of a covering portion to be prevented from peeling off and an electric wire to be identified. A wire harness (1) comprises an electric wire (2) and a connector (3). The electric wire (2) is provided with a conductive core wire (21) and an insulating covering portion (22) for covering the core wire (21). The connector (3) is attached to the end portion (2a) of the electric wire (2) and houses the end portion (2a) of the electric wire (2) therein. A first mark (6) and a second mark (7) are formed on the outer surface (22a) of the covering portion (22) of the electric wire (2). The first mark (6) is formed by coloring part of the outer surface (22a) of the covering portion (22) of the electric wire (2) housed in the connector (3) in a color (A) different from the single color (N) of the outer surface (22a). The second mark (7) is formed by coloring part of the outer surface (22a) of the covering portion (22) of the electric wire (2) exposed to the outside of the connector (3) in the same color (A) as that of the first mark (6).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a wire harness including an electric wire having a conductive core wire, an insulating covering portion covering the core wire, and a connector accommodating an end portion of the electric wire inside. Background technique [0002] Various electronic devices are mounted on a mobile vehicle or the like. For this reason, the automobile or the like is equipped with a wire harness (for example, refer to Patent Document 1) to transmit electric power from a power source or the like or a control signal from a computer or the like to the electronic equipment. The wire harness described in Patent Document 1 includes at least a plurality of electric wires and a connector that is attached to the ends of the electric wires and accommodates the ends inside. [0003] The wires are so-called covered wires. The electric wire includes a conductive core wire and an insulating covering portion covering the core wire. For such electric ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, the marking of the wire harness described in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 may be damaged due to external factors such as contact friction with exterior parts such as corrugated tubes, peripheral parts, or vehicle body panels during wiring work or assembly work. Peeling occurs

In addition, when these marks peel off, there is a problem that it becomes difficult to identify the electric wire

Especially in the case where the mark is formed only on the portion between the connector of the electric wire and the corrugated tube, there is a problem that the electric wire cannot be recognized at all when the mark is peeled off
