Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to wire harnesses. Background Technology

[0002] Conventionally, wiring harnesses include a wire assembly extending from the vehicle body to a sliding door that can be opened and closed relative to the vehicle body, and multiple separate conveyor members covering the wire assembly (for example, see Patent Document 1). The multiple separate conveyor members are arranged along a connecting axis and rotatably connected to each other, wherein the connecting axis is along the extension direction of the wire assembly, thereby protecting the wire assembly while allowing it to bend.

[0003] Each of the separating conveyor components has a separating conveyor body and a conveyor cover. The separating conveyor body is formed in a U-shape with an opening along a connecting cross axis that intersects the connecting axis, and has a locking claw protruding along the connecting cross axis. The conveyor cover has a locking hole, which engages with the locking claw when the locking claw passes through the locking hole. By moving the conveyor cover relative to the separating conveyor body along the connecting cross axis, the locking claw passes through the locking hole. Thus, the conveyor cover is fixed to the separating conveyor body and closes the opening of the separating conveyor body. Existing technical documents Patent documents

[0010] (Description of embodiments of the present invention) First, embodiments of the present invention will be described. (1) The wiring harness of the present invention comprises: a wire assembly extending from a vehicle body to a sliding door that can be opened and closed relative to the vehicle body; and a plurality of separation conveyors covering the wire assembly and arranged along a connecting axis and rotatably connected to each other, the connecting axis being along the extension direction of the wire assembly, each of the separation conveyors having: a U-shaped separation conveyor body having an opening along a connecting cross axis that intersects the connecting axis through a pair of sidewalls having a back wall and extending from both ends of the back wall; and a conveyor cover having a plate-like portion that closes the opening of the separation conveyor body, the separation conveyor body having a locking portion on each of the pair of sidewalls, the conveyor cover having a locking portion, the locking portion being fixed by sliding relative to the locking portion along the connecting axis.

[0011] According to this structure, the conveyor cover has a locking portion that is fixed by sliding relative to the locking portion of the separating conveyor body along the connecting axis, thus suppressing the conveyor cover from wobbling in the direction along the connecting cross axis. That is, for example, in a structure where the separating conveyor body has a locking claw that protrudes along the connecting cross axis and engages with the locking hole of the conveyor cover, the conveyor cover is prone to wobbling in the direction along the connecting cross axis, but in contrast, it is less prone to wobbling.

[0012] (2) In (1) above, the engaging portion may also have: an insertion recess recessed from the outside of the arrangement axis along the pair of sidewalls and extending from the ends of the pair of sidewalls along the connecting cross axis; and a sliding recess bent from the insertion recess and extending along the connecting axis, the engaging portion having: an insertion protrusion protruding from the plate-like portion in a manner that allows it to be inserted into the insertion recess; and an embedding protrusion extending from the insertion protrusion along the connecting axis and capable of embedding into the sliding recess.

[0013] According to this structure, the insertion protrusion is inserted into the insertion recess along the connecting cross axis, and further, the embedding protrusion is embedded into the sliding recess along the connecting axis, thereby fixing the conveyor cover to the separate conveyor body. In this structure, because the embedding protrusion is embedded into the sliding recess along the connecting axis, the wobbling of the conveyor cover in the direction along the connecting cross axis can be suppressed.

[0014] (3) In (2) above, the insertion protrusion may also have an inclined surface that increases in distance from the bottom surface of the insertion recess as it moves toward the end. According to this structure, the insertion protrusion has an inclined surface that increases in distance from the bottom surface of the insertion recess as it moves toward the end, thus facilitating the insertion of the insertion protrusion into the insertion recess. That is, when the insertion protrusion is inserted into the insertion recess via the inclined surface, it can prevent the insertion protrusion from getting stuck.

[0015] (4) In any of (1) to (3) above, the conveyor cover may also have a pair of inner walls opposite to the inner surfaces of the pair of sidewalls respectively. According to this structure, the conveyor cover has a pair of inner walls that face the inner surfaces of each of the pair of side walls, thus, for example, suppressing large swaying of the conveyor cover in the direction along the axis of the arrangement of the pair of side walls.

[0016] (5) In (1) above, the engaging portion may also have: an insertion recess recessed from the outside of the arrangement axis along the pair of sidewalls and extending from the ends of the pair of sidewalls along the connecting cross axis; and a sliding recess bent from the insertion recess and extending along the connecting axis. The engaging portion has: an insertion protrusion protruding from the plate-like portion in a manner that allows it to be inserted into the insertion recess; and an embedded protrusion extending from the insertion protrusion along the connecting axis, thereby allowing a residual wall to be embedded between the embedded protrusion and the plate-like portion, the residual wall being formed between the ends of the pair of sidewalls and the sliding recess.

[0017] According to this structure, the insertion protrusion is inserted into the insertion recess along the connecting cross axis. Furthermore, a residual wall formed between the ends of a pair of sidewalls and the sliding recess is embedded between the embedded protrusion and the plate-like portion, thereby fixing the conveyor cover to the separating conveyor body. In this structure, because the residual wall is embedded between the embedded protrusion and the plate-like portion along the connecting axis, the swaying of the conveyor cover in the direction along the connecting cross axis can be suppressed.

[0018] (Details of embodiments of the present invention) Specific examples of the wire harness of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, for ease of explanation, some parts of the structure are sometimes exaggerated or simplified. Furthermore, the dimensional ratios of the various parts may differ in the drawings.

[0019] The term "orthogonal" in this specification includes not only cases where they are strictly orthogonal, but also cases where they are approximately orthogonal within the range that achieve the effects described in this embodiment. The term "cylindrical" as used in this specification includes not only shapes with a continuous circumferential wall, but also shapes formed by combining multiple components, and shapes with a notch in a portion of the circumference, such as a C-shape. The outer circumferential shape of a "cylindrical" includes, but is not limited to, circles, ellipses, and polygons with pointed or rounded corners. "Cylindrical" refers to a shape having a through hole when viewed from above, including cylinders with the same outer circumferential shape and the same inner circumferential shape as the through hole, or cylinders with different outer circumferential shapes and different inner circumferential shapes as the through hole. "Cylindrical" includes cylinders extending along an axial direction of a predetermined length, regardless of the magnitude of that length, where the axial direction is the direction extending through the center axis of the through hole.

[0020] In this specification, "opposite" refers to a position where surfaces or components are directly opposite each other, including not only positions where they are completely opposite each other, but also positions where they are partially opposite each other. Furthermore, "opposite" in this specification includes both cases where a component independent of the two parts is interposed between the two parts and cases where nothing is interposed between the two parts.

[0021] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in this specification are only for distinguishing objects and do not constitute a ranking of objects. This invention is not limited to these examples, but is intended, through the claims, to include all modifications of the same meaning and scope as those claims.

[0022] (Structure of wire harness 20) like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the wiring harness 20 includes a wire assembly 21, which extends from the vehicle body 30 to the sliding door 40. The wire assembly 21 electrically connects a power control device (not shown) installed on the vehicle body 30 and an electrical device (not shown) installed on the sliding door 40. It should be noted that the electrical device may be, for example, a power window motor or a locking actuator, and the power control device is used to supply power to those electrical devices. The vehicle body 30 has an opening 31 that can be opened and closed through the sliding door 40. Additionally, a step 32 for getting on and off the vehicle is provided on the vehicle body 30. The step 32 is located at a position corresponding to the sliding door 40 and is positioned on the outer side of the opening 31. Figure 1 The lower end of the vehicle is located near the inner side of the vehicle. Figure 1 The upper part of the vehicle body 30. The step 32 is used to place the user's feet when getting in and out of the vehicle. Additionally, the sliding door 40 is configured to be accessible from the front and rear of the vehicle body 30 via a mechanism not shown. Figure 1 The sliding door 40 can slide from the fully closed state (see right and left) via a mechanism not shown. Specifically, the sliding door 40 can move from the fully closed state (see left and right) to the fully closed state. Figure 1 ) To the outside of the vehicle body 30 ( Figure 1 Move one side towards the rear of the vehicle body (the lower side of the vehicle body). Figure 2Slide to the left of the middle, and can slide to the fully open state (see reference). Figure 3 ).

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the wiring harness 20 includes a wire assembly 21, multiple separate delivery components 22, and a rubber sleeve 23. It should be noted that... Figure 4 A portion of the wire harness 20 is shown in a disassembled state, with the separate conveyor 22 and rubber sleeve 23 separated. Additionally, the wire assembly 21 is formed by bundling multiple wires, but in the figure, the multiple wires are not shown in detail; instead, they are schematically concentrated.

[0024] (Structure of multiple separate conveyor components 22) Multiple separate conveyor components 22 are made of resin material. Multiple separate conveyor components 22 cover the wire assembly 21 and are arranged and rotatably connected along a connecting axis X, which is along the extending direction of the wire assembly 21. It should be noted that the connecting axis X mentioned here is along the axis of the wire assembly 21 in a straight state.

[0025] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, each of the multiple separating conveyor components 22 has a separating conveyor body 50 and a conveyor cover 60. It should be noted that the figure shows the connecting axis X, the connecting cross axis Y that intersects the connecting axis X and is orthogonal to the connecting axis X, and the arrangement axis Z that is orthogonal to the connecting axis X and the connecting cross axis Y.

[0026] The separation conveyor body 50 is formed in a U-shape with an opening along the connecting cross axis Y by having a back wall 51 and a pair of side walls 52 that are opposed to and extend from both ends of the back wall 51. In other words, when viewed along the connecting axis X, the separation conveyor body 50 is formed in a U-shape.

[0027] Furthermore, the conveyor cover 60 has a plate-shaped portion 61, which closes the U-shaped opening of the separating conveyor body 50 when the conveyor cover 60 is fixed to the separating conveyor body 50. That is, the conveyor cover 60 has a plate-shaped portion 61 arranged in such a way that the ends of a pair of sidewalls 52 are connected to each other.

[0028] The main body 50 of the separating conveyor has a locking portion 53 on each of a pair of sidewalls 52. Furthermore, the conveyor cover 60 has a locking portion 62, which is fixed by sliding relative to the locking portion 53 along the connecting axis X.

[0029] In detail, the engaging portion 53 is recessed on a pair of sidewalls 52 from the outside of the arrangement axis Z along the pair of sidewalls 52. The engaging portion 53 has an insertion recess 53a extending from the end of the pair of sidewalls 52 along the connecting cross axis Y, and a sliding recess 53b that bends from the insertion recess 53a and extends along the connecting axis X. In addition, a locking claw portion 53c is formed in the sliding recess 53b. In this embodiment, the locking claw portion 53c is located on the side of the sliding recess 53b from the end of the sidewall 52 ( Figure 10 The lower side of the surface protrudes to form the shape.

[0030] The engaging portion 62 includes: an insertion protrusion 62a that protrudes from the plate-like portion 61 along the connecting cross axis Y in a manner that allows it to be inserted into the insertion recess 53a; and an inserting protrusion 62b that extends from the insertion protrusion 62a along the connecting axis X and can be inserted into the sliding recess 53b. Furthermore, a locking claw portion 62c that can be locked to the locking claw portion 53c is formed in the inserting protrusion 62b. In this embodiment, the locking claw portion 62c is formed to protrude further along the connecting axis X from the end of the inserting protrusion 62b and can be locked to the locking claw portion 53c.

[0031] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the insertion protrusion 62b is configured such that the gap between the sliding recess 53b and the connecting cross axis Y is 0. That is, the width of the insertion protrusion 62b along the connecting cross axis Y is the same as the width of the sliding recess 53b along the connecting cross axis Y.

[0032] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the conveyor cover 60 first moves relative to the separation conveyor body 50 along the connecting cross axis Y, and then slides along the connecting axis X, thereby fixing itself to the separation conveyor body 50.

[0033] In addition, such as Figure 8 and Figure 11 As shown, the insertion protrusion 62a has an inclined surface 62d that increases in distance from the bottom surface of the insertion recess 53a as it moves toward the end. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the inclined surface 62d forms a plane from the insertion protrusion 62a to the insertion protrusion 62b.

[0034] Additionally, the conveyor cover 60 has a pair of inner walls 63 that oppose the inner surfaces of a pair of sidewalls 52 in the separating conveyor body 50. For example... Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, a pair of inner walls 63 are formed in the plate-shaped portion 61 of the conveyor cover 60 along the width of the connecting axis X.

[0035] In addition, such as Figure 7As shown, the separation conveyor body 50 has a rotating shaft portion 54 at a first end along the connecting axis X, and a rotatable shaft portion 55 at a second end that can be connected to the rotating shaft portion 54. The rotating shaft portion 54 protrudes from the outer surface of each of a pair of sidewalls 52 along the arrangement axis Z. Furthermore, the rotatable shaft portion 55 is a hole penetrating each of the pair of sidewalls 52. Moreover, each of the plurality of separation conveyor bodies 50 is rotatably connected to the rotatable shaft portion 55 in an adjacent separate separation conveyor body 50 via the rotating shaft portion 54, thereby allowing rotation relative to the adjacent separate separation conveyor body 50.

[0036] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the plurality of separation conveyors 22 have a first separation conveyor 22A capable of rotating at different angles (see reference). Figure 5 ) and the second separation conveyor 22B (refer to Figure 6 These two types. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the first separating conveyor 22A can rotate 15° from a straight position in the first rotation direction (counterclockwise as shown in the figure) and can rotate 30° from a straight position in the second rotation direction (clockwise as shown in the figure). Additionally, as... Figure 6 As shown, the second separating conveyor 22B cannot rotate from a straight position to the first rotation direction, i.e., counterclockwise as shown in the figure, but can rotate 45° from a straight position to the second rotation direction, i.e., clockwise as shown in the figure. It should be noted that the rotation angle of the separating conveyor 22 is set by a known structure that changes the shape of the engaging part with the adjacent separating conveyor 22 (figure omitted).

[0037] Furthermore, multiple separate conveyor elements 22 prevent the wire harness 20 from extending towards the pre-extension wire L (see reference). Figure 3 ) 30 sides of the vehicle body ( Figure 3 The first separation conveyor 22A and the second separation conveyor 22B extend from the upper side of the vehicle body 30. It should be noted that the anti-extension line L is, for example, a line set according to each vehicle model in a way that maintains a constant distance from the vehicle body 30.

[0038] And, as Figure 3 As shown, for example, in this embodiment, a second separation conveyor 22B is used within the intermediate range A of the wire harness 20 (see reference). Figure 6 Therefore, the wiring harness 20 is prevented from extending towards the side of the vehicle body 30 compared to the side where the extension wire L is prevented (). Figure 3 It extends from the upper side of the wire harness 20. Therefore, it can prevent the wire harness 20 from colliding with the vehicle body 30. It should be noted that the first separation conveyor 22A (refer to the upper side of the wire harness 20) is used in the area other than the middle range A in the wire harness 20. Figure 5In addition, of course, the combination of the first separation conveyor 22A and the second separation conveyor 22B can also be appropriately changed, for example, according to the anti-extension line L set for each vehicle model.

[0039] (Structure of rubber sleeve 23) The rubber sleeve 23 is made of rubber material. like Figure 4 As shown, the rubber sleeve 23 is configured to cover a plurality of rotatably connected separate conveyor members 22. The rubber sleeve 23 is formed in a cylindrical shape and is corrugated by repeatedly protruding and recessing in the extending direction. The rubber sleeve 23 is formed to be easily bent by the corrugated structure and to allow rotation of the plurality of separate conveyor members 22.

[0040] (The function of this implementation method) Next, the function of the wire harness 20 constructed as described above will be explained. like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, when the conveyor cover 60 moves first along the connecting cross axis Y relative to the separating conveyor body 50, and then slides along the connecting axis X, the engaging protrusion 62b of the engaging portion 62 engages with the sliding recess 53b of the engaged portion 53. Furthermore, the locking claw portion 62c engages with the locked claw portion 53c. Thus, the conveyor cover 60 is fixed to the separating conveyor body 50. Therefore, the wire assembly 21 (see reference...) Figure 4 The entire circumference of the component is covered by the separate conveyor 22.

[0041] (Effects of this implementation method) Next, the effects of the above-described embodiments will be described. (1) The conveyor cover 60 has a locking portion 62, which is fixed by sliding relative to the locking portion 53 of the separating conveyor body 50 along the connecting axis X, thus suppressing the wobbling of the conveyor cover 60 in the direction along the connecting cross axis Y. That is, for example, in a structure where the separating conveyor body 50 has a locking claw that protrudes along the connecting cross axis Y and engages with the locking hole of the conveyor cover 60, the conveyor cover 60 is prone to wobbling in the direction along the connecting cross axis Y. In contrast, the conveyor cover 60 is less prone to wobbling in the direction along the connecting cross axis Y. In other words, the amount of wobbling of the conveyor cover 60 relative to the separating conveyor body 50 along the connecting cross axis Y can be reduced. Thus, for example, the vibration of the conveyor cover 60 relative to the separating conveyor body 50 can be suppressed, thereby suppressing the generation of abnormal noise.

[0042] (2) In this embodiment, the insertion protrusion 62a is inserted into the insertion recess 53a along the connecting cross axis Y, and further, the insertion protrusion 62b is inserted into the sliding recess 53b along the connecting axis X, thereby fixing the conveyor cover 60 to the separate conveyor body 50. In this structure, because the insertion protrusion 62b is inserted into the sliding recess 53b along the connecting axis X, the wobbling of the conveyor cover 60 in the direction along the connecting cross axis Y can be suppressed.

[0043] (3) The insertion protrusion 62a has an inclined surface 62d that increases in distance from the bottom surface of the insertion recess 53a as it moves toward the end, thus facilitating the insertion of the insertion protrusion 62a into the insertion recess 53a. That is, when the insertion protrusion 62a is inserted into the insertion recess 53a via the inclined surface 62d, the insertion protrusion 62a is prevented from getting stuck.

[0044] (4) The conveyor cover 60 has a pair of inner walls 63 opposite to the inner surfaces of the pair of side walls 52, so, for example, the conveyor cover 60 can be suppressed from swaying too much in the direction of the arrangement axis Z along the pair of side walls 52.

[0045] (Modified example) The above embodiments can be implemented with the following modifications. The above embodiments and the following variations can be combined with each other within the scope of technical inconsistency.

[0046] The engaging portion 62 provided on the conveyor cover 60 in the above embodiment can be modified to other structures, as long as it is fixed by sliding relative to the engaging portion 53 of the separating conveyor body 50 along the connecting axis X. It should be noted that the structure of the engaging portion 53 can also be modified.

[0047] For example, in the above embodiment, the engaging portion 62 has an engaging protrusion 62b that engages with the sliding recess 53b along the connecting axis X, but it can be changed to other structures as long as it can suppress the wobbling of the conveyor cover 60 in the direction along the connecting cross axis Y.

[0048] Specifically, for example, such as Figure 12 As shown, the engaging portion 70 can also have a structure with an insertion protrusion 70a and an embedded protrusion 70b. The insertion protrusion 70a protrudes from the plate-like portion 61 in a manner that allows it to be inserted into the insertion recess 53a. Furthermore, the embedded protrusion 70b extends from the insertion protrusion 70a along the connecting axis X, thereby allowing a residual wall 56 to be embedded between itself and the plate-like portion 61. The residual wall 56 is formed at the ends of a pair of sidewalls 52. Figure 12 Between the lower end of the middle portion and the sliding recess 53b. In addition, a locking claw portion 70c that can lock with the locking claw portion 53c is formed in the embedded protrusion 70b.

[0049] In this way, the insertion protrusion 70a is inserted into the insertion recess 53a along the connecting cross axis Y. Furthermore, a residual wall 56 is embedded between the embedded protrusion 70b and the plate-like portion 61, thereby fixing the conveyor cover 60 to the separate conveyor body 50. In this structure, because the residual wall 56 is embedded between the embedded protrusion 70b and the plate-like portion 61 along the connecting axis X, the wobbling of the conveyor cover 60 in the direction along the connecting cross axis Y can be suppressed.

[0050] In the above embodiment, the insertion protrusion 62a has an inclined surface 62d that increases in distance from the bottom surface of the insertion recess 53a as it moves toward the end, but it is not limited to this and may also be a structure without the inclined surface 62d.

[0051] In the above embodiment, the conveyor cover 60 has a pair of inner walls 63 opposite to the inner surfaces of each of the pair of sidewalls 52, but it is not limited thereto and may also be a structure without inner walls 63.

[0052] The locking claw portion 53c in the above embodiment can also be provided at other positions in the separating conveyor body 50. In addition, the locking claw portion 62c can also be provided at other positions in the conveyor cover 60, as long as the position corresponds to that of the locking claw portion 53c.

[0053] In the above embodiment, the width of the embedded protrusion 62b along the connecting cross axis Y and the width of the sliding recess 53b along the connecting cross axis Y are set to be the same, but it is not limited to this.

[0054] For example, the width of the embedded protrusion 62b along the connecting cross axis Y can also be slightly larger than the width of the sliding recess 53b along the connecting cross axis Y, and the embedded protrusion 62b can be a structure that presses into the sliding recess 53b. Alternatively, for example, the width of the embedded protrusion 62b along the connecting cross axis Y can also be slightly smaller than the width of the sliding recess 53b along the connecting cross axis Y, i.e., reduced within a range where the amount of wobble is smaller than in the prior art.

[0055] In the above embodiment, the plurality of separating conveyors 22 may use either a first separating conveyor 22A or a second separating conveyor 22B that can rotate at different angles, but this is not a limitation. For example, the plurality of separating conveyors 22 may use either a single separating conveyor 22 that can rotate at a constant angle, or three or more separating conveyors 22 that can rotate at different angles.

[0056] In the above embodiment, the wire harness 20 includes a rubber sleeve 23, but it is not limited to this and may also have a structure without the rubber sleeve 23. That is, the plurality of separate conveying members 22 may also have a structure that is exposed to the outside.

[0057] The embodiments disclosed herein are illustrative in all respects, and the invention is not limited to these illustrative examples. That is, the scope of the invention is defined by the claims and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope equivalent to the claims.
