Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wire harness protection accessories, in particular to an external protection device for an engine wire harness. Background Art

[0002] The engine wiring harness refers to a system composed of wires, cables and connectors that connect various engine components. It is mainly responsible for transmitting power signals and control signals. Due to the high-temperature exhaust airflow in the engine compartment, the engine wiring harness is usually subjected to a high-temperature environment, so it needs to be equipped with a protective cover on its surface. The protective cover on the outside of the engine wiring harness can provide thermal protection, dust and water resistance, insulation protection and mechanical protection, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the wiring harness and extending its service life.

[0003] In the prior art, the external protection device of the wire harness mostly adopts a bellows for protection. However, since the temperature around the engine is generally very high, the traditional bellows is easily deformed and melted under the influence of high temperature, resulting in poor sealing effect on the wire harness.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] A plurality of elastic bands 1 are fixed inside the braid, and a plurality of elastic bands 2 are fixed inside the braid. The elastic bands 1 and 2 are used for classifying multiple harnesses.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:
