[0009] Hereinafter, a wiring structure according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment. In addition, the components in the following embodiment include those that a person skilled in the art can easily imagine or that are substantially the same.

[0010] [Embodiment] An embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1 to Fig. 9. The embodiment relates to a wiring structure. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the wiring structure according to the embodiment, Figs. 2 and 3 are plan views of the wiring structure according to the embodiment, Figs. 4 and 5 are exploded perspective views of the wiring structure according to the embodiment, Fig. 6 is a plan view showing the inside of a protector according to the embodiment, Fig. 7 is a front view of the wiring structure according to the embodiment, Fig. 8 is a plan view showing the inside of the protector according to the embodiment, and Fig. 9 is a front view of the wiring structure according to the embodiment.

[0011] As shown in Fig. 1, the wiring structure 1 of the present embodiment includes a protector 2, a rotating member 3, a shielding member 4, and an electric wire W. As shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the electric wire W connects a vehicle body 110 and a sliding door 120 of a vehicle 100. The electric wire W is connected to a power source such as a battery and a control unit such as an ECU in the vehicle body 110.

[0012] The sliding door 120 slides along a first direction X relative to the vehicle body 110. The first direction X is, for example, the front-rear direction of the vehicle 100. The sliding door 120 slides while being guided, for example, by a rail arranged in the vehicle body 110. The sliding door 120 may slide by the operation of a link mechanism that connects the vehicle body 110 and the sliding door 120.

[0013] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the wiring structure 1 when the sliding door 120 is in a fully closed position. When the sliding door 120 is in a fully closed position, as shown in FIG. 2, the electric wire W extends from the protector 2 in a first direction X. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the wiring structure 1 when the sliding door 120 is in a fully open position. When the sliding door 120 is in a fully open position, as shown in FIG. 3, the electric wire W extends from the protector 2 in a second direction Y. The second direction Y is, for example, the vehicle width direction of the vehicle 100. When the sliding door 120 is in a fully open position, the rotating member 3 protrudes from the protector 2 toward the space 130 on the vehicle body 110 side. In the wiring structure 1 of this embodiment, the rotation angle of the rotating member 3 when the sliding door 120 moves between the fully closed position and the fully open position is greater than 90°.

[0014] The protector 2 is disposed on the sliding door 120 and is held by the sliding door 120. The rotating member 3 is rotatably supported by the protector 2. As shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the rotating member 3 rotates following a change in the extending direction of the electric wire W caused by the movement of the sliding door 120.

[0015] A cylindrical exterior member 5 may be disposed between the rotating member 3 and the vehicle body 110. In this case, the rotating member 3 holds one end 5a of the exterior member 5. The other end of the exterior member 5 is held by a holding member disposed in the vehicle body 110. The electric wires W are inserted into the exterior member 5 and are protected by the exterior member 5.

[0016] The shielding member 4 is a member that shields the electric wires W inside the protector 2 from the space on the side of the vehicle body 110. The shielding member 4 is configured to be slidable with respect to the protector 2 and to follow the rotation of the rotating member 3.

[0017] As shown in Fig. 4, the protector 2 has a protector body 6 and a cover 7. The protector body 6 and the cover 7 are molded, for example, from an insulating synthetic resin. The protector body 6 has a semi-cylindrical shape. The protector body 6 has a wiring path 60 in which the electric wire W is wired. The wiring path 60 is composed of a bottom wall 61, a first side wall 64, and a second side wall 65.

[0018] The wiring path 60 has a first opening 60a and a second opening 60b. The first opening 60a is an opening through which the electric wire W is drawn toward the vehicle body 110. The vicinity of the first opening 60a in the wiring path 60 has a tapered shape in which the opening width narrows toward the second opening 60b. The first opening 60a is formed so as not to interfere with the rotating member 3 based on the rotation range of the rotating member 3. The second opening 60b is an opening through which the electric wire W is drawn toward the sliding door 120. The illustrated second opening 60b opens upward.

[0019] A through hole 62 that rotatably supports the rotation shaft 83 of the rotation member 3 is provided in the bottom wall 61 of the wiring passage 60. The through hole 62 is disposed in the vicinity of the first opening 60a. A guide groove 63 that guides the shielding member 4 is provided in the bottom wall 61. The guide groove 63 extends from the vicinity of the through hole 62 toward the second opening 60b along the wiring direction of the electric wire W.

[0020] The cover 7 is a member that engages with the protector body 6 to cover the wiring passage 60 from above. The protector body 6 and the cover 7 surround the electric wire W routed in the wiring passage 60 to protect the electric wire W. The cover 7 has a recess that rotatably supports the rotating shaft 93 of the rotating member 3. The recess is disposed at a position facing the through hole 62 of the protector body 6.

[0021] As shown in Fig. 5, the rotating member 3 has a first member 8 and a second member 9. The first member 8 and the second member 9 are molded, for example, from an insulating synthetic resin. The first member 8 has a bottom wall 80, a first side wall 81, and a second side wall 82. The bottom wall 80, the first side wall 81, and the second side wall 82 form a semi-cylindrical portion having a rectangular cross-sectional shape. A cylindrical rotating shaft 83 is provided at an end of the bottom wall 80. The rotating shaft 83 is rotatably supported by the through hole 62 of the protector 2.

[0022] The second member 9 has a top wall 90, a first side wall 91, and a second side wall 92. The top wall 90, the first side wall 91, and the second side wall 92 form a semi-cylindrical portion having a rectangular cross-sectional shape. A cylindrical rotating shaft 93 is provided at an end of the top wall 90. The rotating shaft 93 is rotatably supported by the cover 7 of the protector 2.

[0023] 4, the rotating member 3 has a square cylindrical portion 31. The cylindrical portion 31 is formed by a semi-cylindrical portion of the first member 8 and a semi-cylindrical portion of the second member 9. The rotating member 3 is rotatable about rotation axes 83 and 93. When the sliding door 120 opens and closes, the rotating member 3 changes the orientation of the cylindrical portion 31 to follow the electric wire W.

[0024] As shown in Fig. 5, the shielding member 4 is a plate-shaped member. The shielding member 4 is molded, for example, from an insulating synthetic resin. The shielding member 4 has a main body 40, a first shaft portion 41, and a second shaft portion 42. The main body 40 has a plate shape that is substantially rectangular in a plan view. The main body 40 has a bent portion 43. The main body 40 is bent at an obtuse angle at the bent portion 43.

[0025] The first shaft portion 41 is rotatably supported by the rotating member 3. The shielding member 4 is connected to the rotating member 3 at the first shaft portion 41. The second shaft portion 42 is guided by the guide groove 63 of the protector 2. The first shaft portion 41 is provided at one end of the main body 40 and protrudes on both sides of the main body 40 in the width direction of the main body 40. The first member 8 of the rotating member 3 has a recess 84 that rotatably supports the first shaft portion 41. The recess 84 is adjacent to an end portion 81a of the first side wall 81. The end portion 81a is an end portion on the side closer to the rotating shaft 83. In other words, the recess 84 is arranged so that the first side wall 81 and the shielding member 4 form a continuous wall portion to cover and conceal the electric wire W. The second member 9 has a recess similar to the recess 84 and rotatably supports the first shaft portion 41. In other words, the rotating member 3 rotatably supports both ends of the first shaft portion 41.

[0026] The second shaft portion 42 is provided at an end portion of the main body 40 opposite to the side of the first shaft portion 41. The second shaft portion 42 protrudes to one side of the main body 40 in the width direction of the main body 40.

[0027] Fig. 6 shows the inside of the protector 2 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position. The cover 7 of the protector 2 and the second member 9 of the rotating member 3 are omitted in Fig. 6. The shielding member 4 is disposed on the vehicle body 110 side with respect to the electric wire W of the wiring path 60. In other words, the shielding member 4 is disposed so as to cover and conceal the electric wire W with respect to the space 130 on the vehicle body 110 side.

[0028] 6, the guide groove 63 has a first end 63a and a second end 63b. The first end 63a is an end located on the side of the first opening 60a. The second end 63b is an end located on the side of the second opening 60b. When the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position, the second shaft portion 42 of the shielding member 4 is positioned at the first end 63a.

[0029] The first end 63a is disposed so as to overlap with the first side wall 64 when viewed from the second direction Y. Therefore, the shielding member 4 can cover and conceal the wiring path 60 when viewed from the space 130 on the vehicle body 110 side. As shown in FIG. 6, the guide groove 63 of the protector 2 is disposed along the first side wall 64. Therefore, the shielding member 4 is positioned on the first side wall 64 side with respect to the electric wire W of the wiring path 60. The shielding member 4 can cover and conceal the electric wire W routed between the first side wall 64 and the second side wall 65.

[0030] 7 is a front view of the protector 2, the rotating member 3, and the shielding member 4 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position, as viewed from the second direction Y. As shown in Fig. 7, the shielding member 4 covers and conceals the electric wires W inside the protector 2 from the outside space. The height of the shielding member 4 is determined so as to cover the electric wires W from the upper end to the lower end. In addition, the length of the shielding member 4 is determined so that the electric wires W inside the protector 2 are not visible when viewed from the second direction Y.

[0031] More specifically, the length of the shielding member 4 is set based on the opening width L1 between the rotating member 3 and the protector 2. The opening width L1 is the length in the first direction X from the end 31a of the rotating member 3 to the end 64a of the protector 2. The end 31a is the end on the rotation center side of the cylindrical portion 31. The end 64a is the end on the first opening 60a side of the first side wall 64 of the protector body 6. The length of the shielding member 4 is the same as or greater than the opening width L1.

[0032] 6 indicates the rotation direction of the rotating member 3 when the sliding door 120 opens. The rotation direction of the arrow AR1 is referred to as the "first rotation direction." When the rotating member 3 rotates in the direction of the arrow AR1, the shielding member 4 is pushed by the rotating member 3 and slides. The sliding direction at this time is the direction approaching the second opening 60b along the guide groove 63.

[0033] FIG. 8 shows the inside of the protector 2 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully open position. In FIG. 8, the cover 7 of the protector 2 and the second member 9 of the rotating member 3 are omitted. When the sliding door 120 is in the fully open position, the second shaft portion 42 of the shielding member 4 is positioned at the second end portion 63b of the guide groove 63. The electric wire W is curved inside the protector 2. The electric wire W has a first extension portion W1, a second extension portion W2, and a curved portion W3. The first extension portion W1 is a portion that extends in the second direction Y from the protector 2 toward the vehicle body 110. The second extension portion W2 is a portion that extends in the wiring path 60 of the protector 2 along the first direction X. The curved portion W3 is a portion that is curved between the first extension portion W1 and the second extension portion W2.

[0034] The shielding member 4 is housed in the space between the first side wall 64 of the protector 2 and the second extending portion W2 of the electric wire W. By positioning the shielding member 4 on the inside of the curved electric wire W in the curved direction, the shielding member 4 is less likely to interfere with the electric wire W.

[0035] Fig. 9 is a front view of the protector 2 and the rotating member 3 as viewed from the space 130 on the vehicle body 110 side when the sliding door 120 is in the fully open position. As shown in Fig. 9, the rotating member 3 covers and conceals the electric wires W inside the protector 2. As shown in Figs. 8 and 9, the shielding member 4 overlaps with the rotating member 3 when viewed from the second direction Y, and is concealed by the rotating member 3.

[0036] When the sliding door 120 rotates from the fully open position to the fully closed position, the rotating member 3 rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow AR2 in FIG. 8. The rotation direction of the arrow AR2 is referred to as the "second rotation direction." When the rotating member 3 rotates in the second rotation direction, the shielding member 4 slides in conjunction with the rotation of the rotating member 3. The movement direction of the shielding member 4 at this time is a direction away from the second opening 60b along the first direction X. The shielding member 4 moves in conjunction with the rotation of the rotating member 3 while covering and concealing the electric wires W inside the protector 2.

[0037] In this manner, the wiring structure 1 of the present embodiment is configured such that the electric wires W inside the protector 2 are not visible from the side of the vehicle body 110 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position, the fully open position, and while the sliding door 120 is moving. Therefore, the wiring structure 1 of the present embodiment can suppress deterioration in appearance caused by the electric wires W being visible to the user.

[0038] As described above, the wiring structure 1 of the present embodiment includes the protector 2, the electric wire W, the cylindrical rotating member 3, and the shielding member 4. The protector 2 is disposed on the sliding door 120 of the vehicle 100. The electric wire W connects the vehicle body 110 of the vehicle 100 and the sliding door 120. The rotating member 3 is rotatably supported by the protector 2, and the electric wire W is inserted through the rotating member 3. The shielding member 4 follows the rotation of the rotating member 3 while sliding relative to the protector 2.

[0039] The protector 2 has a wiring path 60 in which the electric wire W is routed and drawn from the rotating member 3 toward the sliding door 120. The shielding member 4 is disposed closer to the vehicle body 110 than the electric wire W in the wiring path 60, and covers and conceals the electric wire W from the space 130 on the vehicle body 110 side. The wiring structure 1 of this embodiment has the shielding member 4 that covers and conceals the electric wire while following the rotation of the rotating member 3. Therefore, the wiring structure 1 of this embodiment can achieve the effect that the electric wire W is difficult to see from the space 130 on the vehicle body 110 side.

[0040] The shielding member 4 in this embodiment is connected to the rotating member 3. The protector 2 has a guide groove 63 that guides the shielding member 4. The shielding member 4 is connected to the rotating member 3, and follows the rotation of the rotating member 3 while being guided by the guide groove 63. With this configuration, it is possible to slide the shielding member 4 along a predetermined trajectory.

[0041] [First Modification of the Embodiment] A first modified example of the embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 10. Fig. 10 is a diagram showing an internal structure of a protector according to the first modified example of the embodiment. The wiring structure 1 of the first modified example of the embodiment differs from the wiring structure 1 of the above embodiment in that the protector 2 has an accommodation chamber 66 that accommodates the shielding member 4, for example.

[0042] The shielding member 4 of the first modified example slides along the extending direction of the electric wire W in the wiring path 60, similar to the shielding member 4 of the above embodiment. As shown in FIG. 10 , the protector 2 of the first modified example has an accommodation chamber 66. The accommodation chamber 66 is provided inside the protector body 6, and is disposed on the first side wall 64 side with respect to the wiring path 60. The accommodation chamber 66 has a partition wall 67. The partition wall 67 stands upright on the bottom wall 61 of the protector body 6. The partition wall 67 extends along the wiring direction of the electric wire W in the wiring path 60, and separates the electric wire W from the shielding member 4.

[0043] The guide groove 63 is disposed between the partition wall 67 and the first side wall 64. Therefore, the guide groove 63 can guide the shielding member 4 into the accommodation chamber 66 when the sliding door 120 is opened.

[0044] As described above, in the wiring structure 1 according to the first modified example of the embodiment, the shielding member 4 slides along the extending direction of the electric wire W in the wiring path 60. The protector 2 has an accommodation chamber 66 that accommodates the shielding member 4. The accommodation chamber 66 has a partition wall 67 that separates the shielding member 4 and the electric wire W. Therefore, the wiring structure 1 of the first modified example can suppress interference between the electric wire W and the shielding member 4.

[0045] [Second Modification of the Embodiment] A second modified example of the embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 11 to Fig. 14. The wiring structure 1 of the second modified example of the embodiment differs from the wiring structure 1 of the above embodiment in that, for example, the weight of the shielding member 4 is utilized to make the shielding member 4 follow the rotation of the rotating member 3. Fig. 11 and Fig. 12 are diagrams showing the internal structure of a protector according to the second modified example of the embodiment, and Fig. 13 and Fig. 14 are cross-sectional views of the wiring structure according to the second modified example of the embodiment.

[0046] 11, the protector 2 of the second modified example has an accommodation chamber 66 similar to the accommodation chamber 66 of the first modified example. The accommodation chamber 66 has a partition wall 67 that separates the electric wire W from the shielding member 4. The partition wall 67 stands on the bottom wall 61 of the protector body 6 and extends along the extension direction of the electric wire W in the wiring path 60.

[0047] The shielding member 4 of the second modified example is not connected to the rotating member 3 and can slide independently of the rotating member 3. The shielding member 4 has a main body 40 similar to the main body 40 of the above embodiment. The main body 40 has a first end 44 and a second end 45. The first end 44 is one end of the main body 40 in the first direction X. The shielding member 4 slides in the first direction X while being guided by the partition wall 67 and the first side wall 64.

[0048] The end 31a of the rotating member 3 is disposed on the trajectory of the first end 44 when the shielding member 4 slides. The rotating member 3 is configured so as to be able to rotate while keeping the end 31a in contact with the first end 44. Therefore, the rotating member 3 can slide the shielding member 4 to the innermost part of the accommodation chamber 66 while rotating in the direction of the arrow AR1.

[0049] The second end 45 of the shielding member 4 is the other end of the main body 40 in the first direction X. Fig. 11 shows the inside of the protector 2 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position. When the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position, the second end 45 of the shielding member 4 is inserted into the accommodation chamber 66. Therefore, the shielding member 4 can shield the electric wires W inside the protector 2 from the external space when the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position.

[0050] 11 indicates the rotation direction of the rotating member 3 when the sliding door 120 opens. The end portion 31a of the rotating member 3 pushes the shielding member 4 into the accommodation chamber 66 when the sliding door 120 opens.

[0051] 12 shows the inside of the protector 2 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully open position. The shielding member 4 is accommodated in the accommodation chamber 66 and is locked by the rotating member 3.

[0052] FIG. 13 shows a cross section of the storage chamber 66 along the first direction X. The bottom wall 68 of the storage chamber 66 has an inclined surface 68a. The inclined surface 68a is inclined so as to face upward as it approaches the second opening 60b from the first opening 60a along the first direction X. When the rotating member 3 rotates as shown by the arrow AR1 in FIG. 11, the rotating member 3 presses the shielding member 4. The pressing force F1 at this time is a force in a direction that pushes the shielding member 4 deeper into the storage chamber 66 as shown in FIG. 13. Due to this pressing force F1, the shielding member 4 is inserted into the storage chamber 66 while sliding against the inclined surface 68a. When the sliding door 120 moves to the fully open position, the rotating member 3 stops rotating and locks the shielding member 4 in a state where it is stored in the storage chamber 66.

[0053] When the sliding door 120 moves from the fully open position to the fully closed position, the rotating member 3 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow AR1. This releases the lock of the rotating member 3 from the shielding member 4. By releasing the lock, the shielding member 4 slides down along the inclined surface 68a as shown by the arrow AR3 in Fig. 14. In other words, the shielding member 4 slides in the direction opposite to the insertion direction into the accommodation chamber 66. Therefore, the shielding member 4 can follow the rotation of the rotating member 3 while sliding against the inclined surface 68a.

[0054] As described above, the rotating member 3 according to the second modified embodiment presses the shielding member 4 when rotating in a first rotation direction, thereby inserting the shielding member 4 into the accommodating chamber 66. The protector 2 has an inclined surface 68a. The inclined surface 68a slides the shielding member 4 in the direction opposite to the insertion direction into the accommodating chamber 66. Therefore, the wiring structure 1 of the second modified embodiment can cause the shielding member 4 to follow the rotation of the rotating member 3.

[0055] [Third Modification of the Embodiment] A third modified example of the embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 15 to Fig. 18. The wiring structure 1 of the third modified example of the embodiment differs from the wiring structure 1 of the above embodiment in that, for example, a spring 69 for biasing the shielding member 4 is provided. Fig. 15 is a diagram showing an internal structure of a protector according to the third modified example of the embodiment, Fig. 16 is a cross-sectional view of the wiring structure according to the third modified example of the embodiment, Fig. 17 is a diagram showing an internal structure of a protector according to the third modified example of the embodiment, and Fig. 18 is a cross-sectional view of the wiring structure according to the third modified example of the embodiment.

[0056] 15 and 16 , the wiring structure 1 according to the third modified example of the embodiment has a spring 69 disposed in an accommodation chamber 66. The spring 69 is, for example, a coil spring. The spring 69 extends in a first direction X and generates a biasing force in the first direction X. One end of the spring 69 abuts against the shielding member 4, and the other end of the spring 69 abuts against the protector body 6. The spring 69 presses the shielding member 4 toward the rotating member 3.

[0057] 15 and 16 show the shielding member 4 and the spring 69 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position. When the sliding door 120 is in the fully closed position, the spring 69 is contracted between the shielding member 4 and the protector body 6. The spring 69 presses the shielding member 4 toward the rotating member 3, and can suppress vibration of the shielding member 4.

[0058] When the rotating member 3 rotates as shown by the arrow AR1 in FIG. 15, the rotating member 3 presses the shielding member 4. The pressing force F1 at this time is a force in a direction pushing the shielding member 4 deeper into the storage chamber 66 as shown in FIG. 16. This pressing force F1 causes the shielding member 4 to be inserted into the storage chamber 66 while compressing the spring 69. When the sliding door 120 moves to the fully open position, the rotating member 3 stops rotating and locks the shielding member 4 in a state where it is housed in the storage chamber 66. FIG. 17 shows the rotating member 3, the shielding member 4, and the spring 69 when the sliding door 120 is in the fully open position. The spring 69 applies a biasing force F2 to the shielding member 4. The biasing force F2 is a force in a direction pushing the shielding member 4 out of the storage chamber 66. The rotating member 3 locks the shielding member 4 against the biasing force F2.

[0059] When the sliding door 120 moves from the fully open position to the fully closed position, the rotating member 3 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow AR1. This releases the lock of the rotating member 3 with respect to the shielding member 4. When the lock is released, the shielding member 4 moves due to the biasing force F2 of the spring 69. As shown by the arrow AR4 in FIG. 18, the shielding member 4 slides toward the first opening 60a. The spring 69 presses the shielding member 4 toward the rotating member 3, causing the shielding member 4 to follow the rotation of the rotating member 3.

[0060] As described above, when rotating in the first rotation direction, the rotating member 3 according to the third modified example presses the shielding member 4 to insert the shielding member 4 into the accommodating chamber 66. A spring 69 is disposed in the accommodating chamber 66. The spring 69 biases the shielding member 4 in the direction opposite to the insertion direction into the accommodating chamber 66. Thus, the wiring structure 1 according to the third modified example can cause the shielding member 4 to follow the rotation of the rotating member 3.
