[0024] The following will further elaborate on the universal wire harness clip installation structure of this utility model with reference to specific embodiments, so as to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the technical solution of this utility model.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] like Figure 2-9 As shown, the generalized wire harness clip mounting structure of this embodiment is mainly used for mounting wire harnesses on bumpers or other exterior parts. Specifically, the wire harness clip mounting structure includes a bumper skin 1, a wire harness 2, a wire harness strip 3, a wire harness clip 4, and a fixing bracket 5. The bumper skin 1 is an injection-molded plastic part, the wire harness clip 4 is a rigid plastic part with an embedded spring steel sheet 410, and the fixing bracket 5 is a rigid plastic part. The fixing bracket 5 includes a bracket panel 550 and a snap-fit rib 510 disposed on the bracket panel. The snap-fit rib 510 is in the shape of a thin sheet, and triangular reinforcing ribs 540 connected to the bracket panel are provided on both sides of the snap-fit rib 510. The bracket panel 550 is bonded to the first bonding surface 610 of 3M adhesive 6, while the second bonding surface 620 of the 3M adhesive 6 is bonded to the bumper skin 1. The back of the bracket panel 550 is provided with a transverse groove structure 530 and a longitudinal groove structure 520, which makes the local thickness of the bracket panel 550 thinner, such as... Figure 7-8 As shown, the local thickness of the bracket panel 550 is f and g, where f and g can be set to 0.6–0.7 mm. This allows for adaptation to different curvature surfaces of bumper skins or other exterior parts even with a relatively thin material thickness. Utilizing the excellent adhesive properties of 3M adhesive, effective connections to different locations on the bumper skin or other exterior parts are achieved, maintaining good stability. The wire harness 2 is connected to the wire harness clip 4 via the clamping surface 310 of the wire harness strip 3. The wire harness clip 4 has an embedded spring steel sheet 410, which is engaged with the locking rib 510. The interference fit c between the spring steel sheet 410 and the locking rib 510 is 0.5 mm–0.8 mm. The triangular reinforcing rib 540 effectively strengthens the fixed bracket, improving the locking strength of the wire harness bracket.
[0027] For those skilled in the art, the specific embodiments are merely exemplary descriptions of the present invention. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
