[0024] (Embodiment)
[0025] <1. Overall structure of the wiring unit>
[0026] Figure 1 It is a perspective view showing the wiring unit 1 of the embodiment. The wiring unit 1 is a component for electrically connecting a plurality of components (for example, a plurality of in-vehicle components). The wiring unit 1 includes, for example, a plurality of shielding bus bars 10, a plurality of electric wires 20, and a plurality of insulating members 30 (see Figure 2) Multiple shielding components 40 and connecting components 50. In the present embodiment, an example of a "connecting component group AS" is formed by the multiple shielding components 40 and the connecting components 50.
[0027] <2. Shielding bus bar>
[0028] First, the shielding bus bar 10 will be described.
[0029] The shielding bus bar 10 is a bus bar having a shielding structure. In addition, the term "shielding bus bar" in the present disclosure is used for convenience of explanation and does not limit the scope of the invention to a specific structure.
[0030] Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view showing a part of the wiring unit 1. In the present embodiment, the multiple shielding bus bars 10 include a first shielding bus bar 10A and a second shielding bus bar 10B. The first shielding bus bar 10A is an example of each of the "first bus bar" and the "first wiring member". The second shielding bus bar 10B is an example of each of the "second bus bar" and the "third wiring member". Hereinafter, when the first shielding bus bar 10A and the second shielding bus bar 10B are not distinguished, they are simply referred to as the "shielding bus bar 10".
[0031] Figure 3 is a perspective view showing an end portion 10e of the shielding bus bar 10. Figure 4 is along Figure 3 A cross-sectional view taken along line F4 - F4 of the shielding bus bar 10 shown. The shielding bus bar 10 includes, for example, a conductor 11, an insulating coating 12, and a shielding layer 13.
[0032] <2.1 Conductor>
[0033] The conductor 11 forms a conduction path through which current or a signal flows in the shielding bus bar 10. The conductor 11 is, for example, made of metal. The conductor 11 is, for example, a prismatic member having a flat rectangular cross-sectional shape.
[0034] As Figure 4As shown, the conductor 11 has a first main surface 11s1, a second main surface 11s2, a first side surface 11s3, and a second side surface 11s4. The first main surface 11s1 is at the end of the conductor 11 on the -Z direction side. The first main surface 11s1 is a plane along the X direction and the Y direction. The second main surface 11s2 is at the end of the conductor 11 on the +Z direction side. The second main surface 11s2 is a plane along the X direction and the Y direction. The first side surface 11s3 is at the end of the conductor 11 on the +Y direction side. The first side surface 11s3 is a plane along the X direction and the Z direction. The second side surface 11s4 is at the end of the conductor 11 on the -Y direction side. The second side surface 11s4 is a plane along the X direction and the Z direction. In the present embodiment, the first main surface 11s1 and the second main surface 11s2 are larger than the first side surface 11s3 and the second side surface 11s4.
[0035] As Figure 3 shown, the conductor 11 has an end portion 11e as the end portion on the -X direction side. The end portion 11e protrudes in the -X direction from the end portion 12e of the insulating film 12 described later. The end portion 11e is not covered by the insulating film 12 and the shielding layer 13 and is exposed to the outside of the shielding bus bar 10. The end portion 11e is an example of a "conductor end portion".
[0036] <2.2 Insulating Film>
[0037] The insulating film 12 is an insulating member that covers the outer periphery of the conductor 11. The insulating film 12 is, for example, made of synthetic resin. The insulating film 12 covers the outer periphery of the conductor 11 so as to surround the entire circumference of the cross-sectional shape of the conductor 11 having a flat rectangular cross-sectional shape, for example. The insulating film 12 has an end portion 12e as the end portion on the -X direction side. The end portion 12e of the insulating film 12 is not covered by the shielding layer 13 and is exposed to the outside of the shielding bus bar 10.
[0038] <2.3 Shielding Layer>
[0039] The shielding layer 13 is a shielding portion that covers the outer periphery of the insulating film 12. The shielding layer 13 is, for example, a shielding portion for reducing noise. The shielding layer 13 is, for example, a braided layer, a mesh structure, or a metal foil, etc., but is not limited thereto. In the present embodiment, the shielding layer 13 is integrated with the conductor 11 and the insulating film 12. The shielding layer 13 covers the outer periphery of the insulating film 12 so as to surround the entire circumference of the cross-sectional shape of the conductor 11 having a flat rectangular cross-sectional shape, for example.
[0040] As Figure 4 shown, the shielding layer 13 has a first main surface portion 13s1, a second main surface portion 13s2, a first side surface portion 13s3, and a second side surface portion 13s4.
[0041] The first main face portion 13s1 is the end portion of the shielding layer 13 on the -Z direction side. The first main face portion 13s1 is a flat portion along the X direction and the Y direction. The first main face portion 13s1 is a flat portion along the first main face 11s1 of the conductor 11.
[0042] The second main face portion 13s2 is the end portion of the shielding layer 13 on the +Z direction side. The second main face portion 13s2 is a flat portion along the X direction and the Y direction. The second main face portion 13s2 is a flat portion along the second main face 11s2 of the conductor 11.
[0043] The first side face portion 13s3 is the end portion of the shielding layer 13 on the +Y direction side. The first side face portion 13s3 is a flat portion along the X direction and the Z direction. The first side face portion 13s3 is a flat portion along the first side face 11s3 of the conductor 11.
[0044] The second side face portion 13s4 is the end portion of the shielding layer 13 on the -Y direction side. The second side face portion 13s4 is a flat portion along the X direction and the Z direction. The second side face portion 13s4 is a flat portion along the second side face 11s4 of the conductor 11.
[0045] It should be noted that in the present disclosure, the so-called "flat portion" is not limited to a strictly flat portion, and may also include a portion that can be regarded as flat in macroscopic observation. For example, even if it is formed by a braided layer or a mesh structure body, etc., and has small steps or pits, or voids, etc., it also conforms to an example of the "flat portion" referred to in the present disclosure.
[0046] The shielding layer 13 has an end portion 13e as the end portion on the -X direction side. The end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 is located on the +X direction side compared to the end portion 12e of the insulating coating 12. The shielding layer 13 is exposed to the outside of the shielding bus bar 10.
[0047] <2.4 Shape of the shielding bus bar>
[0048] In the present embodiment, the shielding bus bar 10 has an end portion 10e as the end portion on the +X direction side. The end portion 10e of the shielding bus bar 10 includes, for example, the end portion 11e of the conductor 11, the end portion 12e of the insulating coating 12, and the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13. In the present embodiment, the end portion 10e of the shielding bus bar 10 extends linearly in the X direction.
[0049] <2.5 Configuration structure of two shielding bus bars>
[0050] As Figure 2As shown, the first shielding bus bar 10A and the second shielding bus bar 10B are arranged in the Y direction. The first shielding bus bar 10A and the second shielding bus bar 10B are arranged in the Y direction such that, for example, the short sides included in the flat rectangular cross-sectional shape of the conductor 11 face each other.
[0051] In addition, in the present disclosure, the phrase "the first bus bar and the second bus bar are arranged in the Y direction" does not necessarily mean that the first bus bar and the second bus bar are arranged in the Y direction over the entire lengths of the first bus bar and the second bus bar. It may also include a case where a part of the first bus bar (for example, the end portion 10e on the -X direction side) and a part of the second bus bar (for example, the end portion 10e on the -X direction side) are arranged in the Y direction, while another part of the first bus bar and another part of the second bus bar are not arranged in the Y direction. The same definition applies to the first electric wire 20A and the second electric wire 20B described later.
[0052] <3. Electric wire>
[0053] Next, the electric wire 20 will be described.
[0054] As Figure 2 shown, the plurality of electric wires 20 include a first electric wire 20A and a second electric wire 20B. The first electric wire 20A is an example of the "second wiring member". The second electric wire 20B is an example of the "fourth wiring member". Hereinafter, when not distinguishing between the first electric wire 20A and the second electric wire 20B, they are simply referred to as "electric wire 20". The electric wire 20 includes, for example, a core wire 21 and an insulating coating 22 (see Figure 5 ).
[0055] <3.1 Core wire>
[0056] Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view along the F5 - F5 line of the wiring unit 1 shown Figure 1 in the figure. The core wire 21 forms a conduction path for current or signals to flow in the electric wire 20. The core wire 21 is, for example, made of metal. The core wire 21 is, for example, cylindrical. The core wire 21 has an end portion 21e as the end portion on the +X direction side. The end portion 21e protrudes from the end portion 22e of the insulating coating 22 described later in the +X direction. The end portion 21e is not covered by the insulating coating 22 and is exposed to the outside of the insulating coating 22. The end portion 21e is an example of the "core wire end portion".
[0057] The end portion 21e of the core wire 21 has, for example, a flat portion 21p formed by flattening the end portion 21e. The end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the shielding bus bar 10 overlaps with the flat portion 21p of the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 in the Z direction. Moreover, the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the shielding bus bar 10 and the flat portion 21p of the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 are joined. By this joining, the conductor 11 of the shielding bus bar 10 is physically and electrically connected to the core wire 21 of the electric wire 20. The above-described joining method is, for example, ultrasonic welding or resistance welding, but is not limited to this example.
[0058] <3.2 Insulating coating>
[0059] The insulating coating 22 is an insulating member that covers the outer periphery of the core wire 21. The insulating coating 22 is, for example, made of synthetic resin. The insulating coating 22 covers the outer periphery of the core wire 21 so as to surround the entire circumference of the core wire 21. The insulating coating 22 has an end portion 22e as an end portion on the +X direction side.
[0060] <3.3 Arrangement structure of two electric wires>
[0061] As Figure 2 shown, the first electric wire 20A and the second electric wire 20B are arranged and disposed in the Y direction. In the present embodiment, the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the first shielding bus bar 10A is joined to the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the first electric wire 20A. In addition, the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the second shielding bus bar 10B is joined to the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the second electric wire 20B.
[0062] <4. Insulating member>
[0063] Next, the insulating member 30 will be described.
[0064] As Figure 2 shown, the plurality of insulating members 30 include a first insulating member 30A and a second insulating member 30B. Hereinafter, when the first insulating member 30A and the second insulating member 30B are not distinguished, they are simply referred to as "insulating member 30".
[0065] As Figure 5 shown, the insulating member 30 is a member that externally insulates and protects the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the shielding bus bar 10 and the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the electric wire 20. The insulating member 30 is provided in the X direction so as to extend from the end portion 12e of the insulating coating 12 of the shielding bus bar 10 to the end portion 22e of the insulating coating 22 of the electric wire 20. The insulating member 30 is, for example, cylindrical. The insulating member 30 covers the outer periphery of the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the shielding bus bar 10 and also covers the outer periphery of the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the electric wire 20. The insulating member 30 is, for example, a heat-melt type heat-shrinkable tube.
[0066] In the present embodiment, the first insulating member 30A is installed at the connection portion between the first shield bus bar 10A and the first electric wire 20A. On the other hand, the second insulating member 30B is installed at the connection portion between the second shield bus bar 10B and the second electric wire 20B.
[0067] <5. Shielding member>
[0068] Next, the shielding member 40 will be described.
[0069] As Figure 2 shown, the plurality of shielding members 40 include a first shielding member 40A and a second shielding member 40B. Hereinafter, without distinguishing between the first shielding member 40A and the second shielding member 40B, they are simply referred to as "shielding member 40".
[0070] As Figure 5 shown, the shielding member 40 is an outer packaging member provided along with the electric wire 20. The shielding member 40 is, for example, an outer packaging member for reducing noise. The shielding member 40 is, for example, a sheet-shaped corrugated tube having a shielding layer 41.
[0071] The shielding member 40 includes, for example, a shielding layer 41 and an outer packaging member 42. The shielding layer 41 is, for example, sheet-shaped. The shielding layer 41 is, for example, a non-woven fabric applied with a metal plating. The outer packaging member 42 is, for example, a mesh structure provided on the outer surface of the shielding layer 41. The outer packaging member 42 is, for example, a member applied with a metal plating. The shielding member 40 is wound into a cylindrical shape so as to surround the entire circumference of the electric wire 20 for installation.
[0072] In the present embodiment, the shielding member 40 extends more toward the +X direction side than the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the electric wire 20 in such a manner as to cover the outer circumference of the end portion 10e of the shield bus bar 10 in addition to the outer circumference of the electric wire 20. The shielding member 40 has a main body portion 45 that covers the outer circumference of the electric wire 20 and an end portion 46 that covers the outer circumference of the end portion 10e of the shield bus bar 10 (for example, the outer circumference of the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13). The main body portion 45 is annular along the outer circumference of the cylindrical electric wire 20. The main body portion 45 is an example of the "first part". The end portion 46 is a flat rectangular ring along the outer circumference of the end portion 10e of the flat prismatic shield bus bar 10. The end portion 46 is an example of the "second part".
[0073] In the present embodiment, the first shielding member 40A covers the outer circumference of the first electric wire 20A and the outer circumference of the end portion 10e of the first shield bus bar 10A. The second shielding member 40B covers the outer circumference of the second electric wire 20B and the outer circumference of the end portion 10e of the second shield bus bar 10B.
[0074] Figure 6 is along Figure 5Cross-sectional view of the F6-F6 line of the wiring unit 1 shown. The end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 includes a flat portion 46s1 and a flat portion 46s2.
[0075] The flat portion 46s1 is the end portion of the shielding member 40 on the -Z direction side. The flat portion 46s1 is a flat portion along the X direction and the Y direction. The flat portion 46s1 is a flat portion along the first main surface portion 13s1 of the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10.
[0076] The flat portion 46s2 is the end portion of the shielding member 40 on the +Z direction side. The flat portion 46s2 is a flat portion along the X direction and the Y direction. The flat portion 46s2 is a flat portion along the second main surface portion 13s2 of the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10.
[0077] In addition, as described above, in the present disclosure, the so-called "flat portion" is not limited to a strictly flat surface, and may also include a portion that can be regarded as flat when observed macroscopically. For example, even when the outer packaging member 42 is formed of a woven fabric or a mesh structure body, and has small steps, pits, or voids, etc., it can be regarded as an example of the "flat portion" referred to in the present disclosure.
[0078] Hereinafter, the assembly formed by assembling the first shielding bus bar 10A, the first electric wire 20A, the first insulating member 30A, and the first shielding member 40A will be referred to as the first conduction path assembly CA1. In addition, the assembly formed by assembling the second shielding bus bar 10B, the second electric wire 20B, the second insulating member 30B, and the second shielding member 40B will be referred to as the second conduction path assembly CA2.
[0079] <6. Connection member>
[0080] Then return Figure 2 , and the connection member 50 will be described.
[0081] The connection member 50 is a member that presses the shielding member 40 against the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10. The connection member 50 has, for example, a base 60, a lid 70, and a pressing portion 80 (see Figure 5 ).
[0082] <6.1 Base>
[0083] The base 60 is a member that faces the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 from the -Z direction. The base 60 is an example of the "first member". The base 60 is formed of an insulating material such as synthetic resin, for example. The base 60 includes, for example, a first main wall portion 61, a first side wall portion 62, a second side wall portion 63, and a standing wall portion 64. The +Z direction side of the base 60 is open.
[0084] (First main wall portion)
[0085] The first main wall portion 61 is a wall portion facing the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 from the -Z direction. The first main wall portion 61 includes a first region R1 and a second region R2. The first region R1 faces the first conduction path assembly CA1 from the -Z direction. The first accommodation portion S1 is a space portion in the connecting member 50 for arranging the first conduction path assembly CA1. The second region R2 faces the second conduction path assembly CA2 from the -Z direction. The second accommodation portion S2 is a space portion in the connecting member 50 for arranging the second conduction path assembly CA2.
[0086] In the present embodiment, for example, the first region R1 has a first part 61a, a second part 61b, and a third part 61c.
[0087] In the region where the first shielding member 40A is removed when viewed from the Z direction, the first part 61a faces a part of the first shielding bus bar 10A from the -Z direction. The first part 61a is a flat wall portion along the X direction and the Y direction. The first part 61a is along the first main surface portion 13s1 of the shielding layer 13 of the first shielding bus bar 10A.
[0088] The second part 61b is located on the -X direction side of the first part 61a. The second part 61b faces the end portion 46 of the first shielding member 40A from the -Z direction. The second part 61b is a flat wall portion along the X direction and the Y direction. The second part 61b is along the flat portion 46s1 of the first shielding member 40A.
[0089] The second part 61b is offset in the -Z direction with respect to the first part 61a in such a manner that the first accommodation portion S1 expands toward the -Z direction side. Thus, a stepped portion ST1 in the Z direction is formed at the boundary between the first part 61a and the second part 61b. The stepped portion ST1 extends in the Y direction at a position corresponding to the +X direction side end 46ea of the first shielding member 40A. The positioning of the first conduction path assembly CA1 (for example, the positioning of the first shielding member 40A) can be performed, for example, by arranging the +X direction side end 46ea of the first shielding member 40A along the stepped portion ST1.
[0090] The third part 61c is located on the -X direction side of the second part 61b. The third part 61c faces a part of the main body portion 45 of the first shielding member 40A from the -Z direction. The third part 61c is an arc shape along the outer shape of the main body portion 45 of the first shielding member 40A. The third part 61c is integrated with the first side wall portion 62 and the standing wall portion 64 described later.
[0091] The third part 61c expands toward the -Z direction side with the first accommodation part S1 expanding, and expands toward the -Z direction side relative to the second part 61b. As a result, a stepped portion ST2 in the Z direction is formed at the boundary between the second part 61b and the third part 61c. The stepped portion ST2 is provided at a position corresponding to the boundary between the main body portion 45 and the end portion 46 of the first shielding member 40A. The positioning of the first conduction path assembly CA1 (for example, the positioning of the first shielding member 40A) can be performed, for example, by arranging the boundary portion between the main body portion 45 and the end portion 46 of the first shielding member 40A along the stepped portion ST2.

[0118] (Second protruding portion)
[0119] As Figure 5 shown, the second protruding portion 82 is provided in the second part 71b of the second main wall portion 71 of the cover 70. The second protruding portion 82 is provided at a position overlapping with the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 (a position overlapping with the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10) when viewed from the Z direction. The second protruding portion 82 is, for example, arranged at a position facing the first protruding portion 81 in the Z direction. The second protruding portion 82 protrudes from the inner surface 71s1 of the second part 71b of the second main wall portion 71 in the -Z direction. When the base 60 and the cover 70 are combined (for example, engaged), the second protruding portion 82 contacts the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 from the +Z direction side, and presses the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 against the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10. When the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 is pressed against the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10, the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 and the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 are reliably in contact. As described above, when the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 and the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 are reliably in contact, the electrical connection between the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 and the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 is stable. In the present embodiment, the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 is clamped by the first protruding portion 81 and the second protruding portion 82 from both sides in the Z direction.
[0120] As Figure 6 shown, the second protruding portion 82 is a rib having a certain height with respect to the inner surface 71s1 of the second main wall portion 71 and extending in the Y direction. When viewed from the Z direction, the second protruding portion 82 overlaps with the flat portion 46s2 of the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 and the second main surface portion 13s2 of the shielding layer 13 of the shielding bus bar 10.

The third protruding portion 83 protrudes from the inner surface 61s1 of the first main wall portion 61 of the base 60 in the +Z direction. When the base 60 and the lid 70 are combined (for example, engaged), the third protruding portion 83 contacts the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40 from the -Z direction side. When the third protruding portion 83 contacts the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40, the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40 is stably held.
[0124] (Fourth protruding portion)
[0125] The fourth protruding portion 84 is provided in the second main wall portion 71 of the lid 70. The fourth protruding portion 84 is provided at a position overlapping with the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40 when viewed from the Z direction. The fourth protruding portion 84 protrudes from the inner surface 71s1 of the second main wall portion 71 of the lid 70 in the -Z direction. When the base 60 and the lid 70 are combined (for example, engaged), the fourth protruding portion 84 contacts the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40 from the +Z direction side. When the fourth protruding portion 84 contacts the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40, the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40 is stably held.
[0126] <7. Additional waterproof treatment>
[0127] In addition to the above structure, the connecting member 50 may also have a waterproof treatment portion WP (refer to Figure 5 ). The waterproof treatment portion WP is a portion where waterproof treatment for suppressing corrosion of the connection portion between the conductor 11 of the shielding bus bar 10 and the core wire 21 of the electric wire 20 is performed. The waterproof treatment portion WP is formed between the base 60 and the lid 70 by injecting a potting material between the base 60 and the lid 70. For example, the waterproof treatment portion WP is formed by injecting a potting material between the base 60 and the lid 70 through an injection hole 91 provided in the base 60 or the lid 70.
[0128] <8. Assembly method of the wiring unit 1>
[0129] Next, the assembly method of the wiring unit 1 will be described.
[0130] Figure 7 It is a diagram for explaining the assembly method of the wiring unit 1. First, the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the first shield bus bar 10A is joined to the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the first electric wire 20A. In addition, the end portion 11e of the conductor 11 of the second shield bus bar 10B is joined to the end portion 21e of the core wire 21 of the second electric wire 20B (refer to Figure 7 (a) in
[0131] Next, the insulating member 30 is installed. For example, the first insulating member 30A before heat shrinkage is installed at the connection portion between the first shield bus bar 10A and the first electric wire 20A. In addition, the second insulating member 30B before heat shrinkage is installed at the connection portion between the second shield bus bar 10B and the second electric wire 20B. And, by performing a heating process, the first insulating member 30A and the second insulating member 30B are heat-shrunk (refer to Figure 7 (b) in . Through this process, the insulation of the connection portion between the first shield bus bar 10A and the first electric wire 20A, and the connection portion between the second shield bus bar 10B and the second electric wire 20B is ensured.
[0132] Next, the shielding member 40 is installed. For example, the first shielding member 40A is provided so as to cover the outer periphery of the end portion 10e of the first shield bus bar 10A and the outer periphery of the first electric wire 20A. In addition, the second shielding member 40B is installed so as to cover the outer periphery of the end portion 10e of the second shield bus bar 10B and the outer periphery of the second electric wire 20B (refer to Figure 7 (c) in . Thus, the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 are assembled.
[0133] Next, the connecting member 50 is installed. For example, in a state where the base 60 and the cover 70 are separated, the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 are placed inside the base 60. Next, the cover 70 is combined with the base 60 (refer to Figure 7 (d) in . When the cover 70 is combined with the base 60, each of the first protrusion 81 and the second protrusion 82 presses the end portion 46 of the first shielding member 40A toward the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the first shield bus bar 10A, and presses the end portion 46 of the second shielding member 40B toward the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the second shield bus bar 10B.
[0134] <9. Advantages>
[0135] When conceiving a structure in which a bus bar with a shielding layer is connected to a wire accompanied by a shielding member, the operation of electrically connecting the shielding layer and the shielding member may become complicated.
[0136] On the other hand, in the present embodiment, a shielding member 40 is provided. The shielding member 40 includes a main body portion 45 that covers the outer periphery of the insulating coating 22 of the wire 20 and an end portion 46 that covers the outer periphery of the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the shielded bus bar 10. The connecting member 50 has a base 60, a lid 70, and a pressing portion 80. The base 60 faces the shielding member 40 from the Z direction. The lid 70 is disposed on the opposite side of the shielding member 40 with respect to the base 60 and is combined with the base 60. When the base 60 and the lid 70 are combined, the pressing portion 80 presses the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 toward the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13. With such a structure, the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 is pressed by the pressing portion 80 toward the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13, so that the operation of electrically connecting the shielding member 40 and the shielding layer 13 can be simply performed. Therefore, an improvement in operability can be achieved.
[0137] In the present embodiment, the shielding member 40 is a sheet-shaped bellows having a shielding layer 41. With such a structure, the shielding member 40, which is a sheet-shaped bellows, can be simply connected to the shielding layer 13 of the shielded bus bar 10.
[0138] In the present embodiment, the pressing portion 80 includes a protruding portion 81 or a protruding portion 82 that is provided on the base 60 or the lid 70 and presses the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 toward the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13. With such a structure, the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40 can be more reliably pressed toward the end portion 13e of the shielding layer 13 by the protruding portion 81 or the protruding portion 82.
[0139] In the present embodiment, the shielding member 40 has a flat portion 46s1 or a flat portion 46s2 along the main surface portion 13s1 or the second main surface portion 13s2 of the shielding layer 13. The protruding portion 81 or the protruding portion 82 is a rib extending in the Y direction. The protruding portion 81 or the protruding portion 82 presses the flat portion 46s1 or the flat portion 46s2 of the shielding member 40 toward the first main surface portion 13s1 or the second main surface portion 13s2 of the shielding layer 13. With such a structure, by using the structure having the flat portion 46s1 or the flat portion 46s2, the contact area between the shielding member 40 and the shielding layer 13 can be increased.
[0140] In the present embodiment, at least one of the base 60 and the cover 70 has a stepped portion ST1, which is provided at a position corresponding to the end 46ea in the X direction of the shielding member 40 to restrict the position of the shielding member 40 in the X direction. With such a structure, positioning of the shielding member 40 in the X direction and / or suppression of position deviation can be performed by the base 60 or the cover 70.
[0141] In the present embodiment, when the base 60 and the cover 70 are combined, the pressing portion 80 presses the end 46 of the first shielding member 40A against the end 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the first shielding bus bar 10A, and presses the end 46 of the second shielding member 40B against the end 13e of the shielding layer 13 of the second shielding bus bar 10B. With such a structure, by the operation of combining the base 60 and the cover 70, the operation of electrically connecting multiple pairs of the shielding member 40 and the shielding layer 13 can be concentrated.
[0142] <10. Modified Example>
[0143] Next, a modified example of the embodiment will be described. In addition, the structure other than the following description is the same as that of the above-described embodiment.
[0144] Figure 8 is a cross-section of the wiring unit 1 showing the modified example. In the present modified example, the shielding member 40 includes a braided layer or a mesh structure body and has a plurality of pits or voids. For example, the outer package 42 of the shielding member 40 is a braided layer or a mesh structure body and has a plurality of pits or voids.
[0145] In the present modified example, at least one of the base 60 and the cover 70 includes a plurality of protrusions 101. The plurality of protrusions 101 project from the first main wall portion 61 or the second main wall portion 71 toward the end 46 of the shielding member 40. The plurality of protrusions 101 are arranged at equal intervals in, for example, the X direction and the Y direction. The plurality of protrusions 101 bite into the end 46 of the shielding member 40 from the Z direction.
[0146] In the present modified example, the plurality of protrusions 101 are provided on the second portion 61b of the first main wall portion 61 of the base 60 or the second portion 71b of the second main wall portion 71 of the cover 70. The plurality of protrusions 101 include two or more protrusions 101 that are arranged at different positions with respect to the Y direction. In the present disclosure, the so-called "arranged at different positions with respect to the Y direction" is not limited to the case of being arranged in the Y direction, and may also include the case of being arranged at positions that are inclined and offset with respect to the Y direction. The above two or more protrusions 101 bite into the flat portion 46s1 or the flat portion 46s2 of the end 46 of the shielding member 40 from the Z direction.
[0147] As described above, in the present modification, the connecting member 50 has a plurality of protrusions 101 that bite into the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40. With such a structure, the positioning of the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 and / or the suppression of position deviation can be achieved by the plurality of protrusions 101.
[0148] In addition, in the present modification, two or more protrusions 101 that are arranged at different positions in the Y direction bite into the flat portion 46s1 or the flat portion 46s2 of the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40. With such a structure, by utilizing the structure of the shielding member 40 having the flat portion 46s1 or the flat portion 46s2, the positioning of the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 and the suppression of position deviation can be more firmly achieved.
[0149] Here, when two or more such protrusions are provided in a base or a cover corresponding to a cylindrical shielded cable, all the protrusions are arranged toward the center of the conductor. In this case, the problem of undercutting occurs during the molding of the base or the cover, and it is difficult to provide the above-mentioned protrusions. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the protrusions 101 are provided by utilizing the structure of the base 60 or the cover 70 corresponding to the shield bus bar 10, so the protrusions 101 are easily formed.
[0150] In addition, instead of the end portion 46 of the shielding member 40, the plurality of protrusions 101 may also bite into the main body portion 45 of the shielding member 40. In addition, instead of / in addition to the shielding member 40, the plurality of protrusions 101 may also bite into the shielding layer 13 of the shield bus bar 10. Even with a structure in which the plurality of protrusions 101 bite into the shielding layer 13, the positioning of the first conduction path assembly CA1 and the second conduction path assembly CA2 and / or the suppression of position deviation can be achieved.
[0151] The above describes the embodiments and a plurality of modifications. However, the embodiments and the modifications are not limited to the above examples. For example, a plurality of modifications may be combined with each other to be implemented. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the engaging portions 65 and 66 of the base 60 are claw portions, and the engaging portions 75 and 76 of the cover 70 are engaging holes. Instead of this solution, the engaging portions 75 and 76 of the cover 70 may be claw portions, and the engaging portions 65 and 66 of the base 60 may be engaging holes.
[0152] In addition, for the preferred embodiments of the present invention, they have been described and illustrated above, but they are examples of the present invention and are not limiting. Without departing from the scope of the present invention, addition, omission, substitution, and other changes can be made. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the foregoing description, but only by the appended scope of protection.
