AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing multi-core cables for EMB devices have difficulty in distinguishing between wires connecting to electric motors or actuators and sensors due to exposed ends, making it challenging to identify connection destinations.
Method used
The multi-core cable design features distinct outer peripheral surface configurations for each internal cable through varying shapes of the first covering members, allowing easy identification of individual cables based on their outer appearances.
Benefits of technology
Facilitates easy determination of connection destinations by providing visually distinguishable outer surfaces for each internal cable, enhancing identification and reducing potential damage to inner sheaths during bending.

Abstract
To provide a multicore cable making it easy to discern a connection destination.SOLUTION: A multicore cable is provided with: three or more internal cables 10, 20A, 20B, and 30 having at least one electric wire 11, 21 and 31 having conductors 12, 22, and 32 and first covering members 15, 25A, 25B and 35 covering a periphery of at least one electric wire 11, 21, 31; and a second covering member 40 covering the periphery of the three or more internal cables 10, 20A, 20B, 30, wherein aspects of outer peripheral surfaces of the first covering members 15, 25A, 25B and 35 in three or more internal cables 10, 20A, 20B and 30 are all different. By doing so, all aspects of the outer peripheral surfaces of the first covering members 15, 25A, 25B and 35 are different, each of the three or more internal cables 10, 20A, 20B, and 30 is easily discerned based on the aspect of the outer peripheral surfaces of the first covering members 15, 25A, 25B, and 35.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
