Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of wire harnesses, in particular to a sealed wire harness for an automobile. Background Art
[0002] The automotive wiring harness is the main network of the automotive circuit. Without the wiring harness, there would be no automotive circuit. The wiring harness is a component that is formed by crimping, then plasticizing or adding a metal shell, etc., to form a wiring harness to connect the circuit. The vehicle body wiring harness connects the entire vehicle body. The wiring harness industry chain includes wires and cables, connectors, processing equipment, wiring harness manufacturing and downstream application industries. The wiring harness is widely used.
[0003] Automotive wires are also called low-voltage wires. They are different from ordinary household wires. Ordinary household wires are single-core copper wires with a certain hardness. Automotive wires are multi-core copper soft wires, some of which are as thin as hair. Several or even dozens of soft copper wires are wrapped in plastic insulation tubes (polyvinyl chloride), which are soft and not easy to break.
[0004] Multiple automotive wires are wrapped in plastic insulating tubes and routed inside the automotive sheet metal. When the automotive wiring harness reaches the door position, the automotive wiring harness needs to be branched out from the plastic insulating tube so that it can be connected to the target electrical components for power supply or control of the target components. Sealed joints are used to guide the branching positions so that the branching positions are wrapped and sealed to prevent the wires at this position from being pulled and disordered, and to prevent solid particle impurities from entering the plastic insulating tube to affect the properties of the wires themselves.
[0005] Currently, sealing joints are mainly of two-piece structure. During installation, they are placed outside the branch line position and fixed one by one with multiple screws to complete the installation of the sealing joints. The operation time is long, which affects the wiring time. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0025] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides an embodiment: a sealed wiring harness for automobile, comprising a main harness 1, branch wires 2 and a sealing joint 3, wherein the main harness 1 and the branch wires 2 are located on both sides of the sealing joint 3, and the main harness 1 and the branch wires 2 are branched in the sealing joint 3;
[0026] The sealing joint 3 includes an outer seal 4, which is composed of an upper sealing shell 5 and a lower sealing shell 6. A hollow cavity is formed inside the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6. A side fixing half ring 11 is fixed in the middle of both sides of the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6. A limited position fixing half ring 12 is fixed on the outer side of the side fixing half ring 11. An outer fixing half ring 13 is fixed on the outer side of the limited position fixing half ring 12. An outer locking sleeve 18 is provided on the outer side of the upper and lower outer fixing half rings 13 on each side. An anti-slip patch 20 is fixed to the front and rear ends of the outer locking sleeve 18 by hot melt, and the outer surface of the anti-slip patch 20 is provided with anti-slip patterns;
[0027] The outer locking sleeve 18 is pushed toward the outer fixing half ring 13 , and the outer locking sleeve 18 is pushed inward until the middle spring piece 16 corresponds to the position of the through rectangular groove 19 . At this time, the outer locking sleeve 18 fixes the positions of the two outer fixing half rings 13 to create a sealed environment inside the outer seal 4 .
[0028] A rectangular groove 9 is provided at the inner end in the middle of the rear end surface of the upper sealing shell 5, and a protruding strip 10 is integrally connected to the rear end position of the lower sealing shell 6 and the matching position of the rectangular groove 9. The protruding strip 10 is located in the rectangular groove 9 and is rotatably connected to the upper sealing shell 5 through an axis. A front extension plate 7 is fixed in the middle of the inner ends of the front ends of the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6, and the two front extension plates 7 are fixed by fixing bolts 8; when the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6 are connected and fixed by a fixing bolt 8, the temporary fixing force of the outer locking sleeve 18 on the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6 during the advancement process can be reduced, so that the two outer fixing half rings 13 can be directly fitted, which is convenient for the advancement of the outer locking sleeve 18.
[0029] Furthermore, connecting spring pieces 17 are fixed on both sides of the middle of the outer side of the outer fixing half ring 13. The connecting spring pieces 17 are arranged obliquely, and an intermediate spring piece 16 is integrally connected between each group of two connecting spring pieces 17. A through rectangular groove 19 is penetrated through the outer locking sleeve 18 at a position corresponding to the intermediate spring piece 16. The length of the through rectangular groove 19 is greater than the length of the intermediate spring piece 16, and the width of the through rectangular groove 19 is slightly greater than the width of the intermediate spring piece 16. The outer diameter of the outer fixing half ring 13 is smaller than the inner diameter of the outer locking sleeve 18, leaving deformation space for the connecting spring piece 17 and the intermediate spring piece 16.
[0030] Press the two middle spring pieces 16 that penetrate the rectangular grooves 19 to deform the middle spring pieces 16 and the connecting spring pieces 17 inwardly, then take out the outer locking sleeve 18; then unscrew the nuts of the fixing bolts 8 to complete the preparatory work before installation.
[0031] Open the upper sealing shell 5 upwards, place the branching position of the automobile wiring harness between the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6 of the outer sealing member 4, then rotate the upper sealing shell 5 downwards to drive the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6 to form a whole again, and use the fixing bolts 8 to complete the simple fixation of the upper sealing shell 5 and the lower sealing shell 6.
[0032] Furthermore, semi-cylindrical bars 14 are hot-melt-fixed on the inner surfaces of the side fixing semi-ring 11, the limiting fixing semi-ring 12 and the outer fixing semi-ring 13. The semi-cylindrical bars 14 are arranged in a circular array on the inner surfaces of the side fixing semi-ring 11, the limiting fixing semi-ring 12 and the outer fixing semi-ring 13. The internal structure is squeezed by external pressure so that the gap between the structures is as small as possible to achieve relative sealing. The diameter of the semi-cylindrical bars 14 located outside the bus harness 1 is smaller than the diameter of the semi-cylindrical bars 14 located outside the branch wire 2. The branch wire 2 loses the external insulating tube after branching, and the overall diameter is reduced. Therefore, the size of the sealing structure here is set to be larger.
[0033] A cable cavity 15 is formed between the two upper and lower sets of side fixing half rings 11, the limiting fixing half ring 12 and the outer fixing half ring 13 on each side. The cable cavity 15 is connected with the hollow cavity, and the bus harness 1 and the branch wires 2 are respectively clamped in the two cable cavities 15.
[0034] The outer locking sleeve 18 is pushed toward the outer fixing half ring 13, and the outer locking sleeve 18 is pushed inward along the two outer fixing half rings 13 and the connecting spring piece 17 until the middle spring piece 16 corresponds to the position of the through rectangular groove 19, and the middle spring piece 16 can be reset halfway and stuck in the through rectangular groove 19. At this time, the outer locking sleeve 18 exerts pressure on the middle spring piece 16 and the connecting spring piece 17, and the pressure is transmitted to the position of the semi-cylindrical strip 14 through the outer fixing half ring 13. The semi-cylindrical strip 14 squeezes the cable in the cable cavity 15 to create a sealed environment in the outer seal 4.
[0035] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
