Sheet Wiring Assembly Using Adhesive Tape for Wire Retention
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
It is challenging to securely hold wire-like transmission members, such as electric wires, on a sheet material when fusion is difficult due to differences in material compatibility and peeling strength between the wire and the sheet.
Innovation Solution
A wiring member configuration that includes a wire-like transmission member, a sheet member, and at least one adhesive tape member with an adhesive surface facing the wire-like transmission member, which is wound around and adhered to the sheet member to securely hold the wire in place, even if fusion is not possible.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If fusion method is used to attach wire to sheet material, then bonding strength is improved, but it becomes difficult to attach when material compatibility is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces adhesive tape as an intermediary component between the wire and sheet material. The adhesive tape member has an adhesive surface that bonds to the wire and another surface that bonds to the sheet material, serving as a mediator that enables attachment even when the wire and sheet material are not compatible for direct fusion. This resolves the contradiction by allowing versatile material selection while maintaining bonding strength through the adhesive intermediary.
2Ease of manufacture
If adhesive tape member is added to enable easy attachment, then ease of manufacture is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The adhesive tape member combines multiple functions into a single component: it provides bonding between wire and sheet material, protects the wire surface, and maintains positional stability. By merging these functions into one integrated component rather than using separate bonding agents, protective layers, and positioning elements, the patent improves ease of manufacture while minimizing the increase in device complexity.
3Stability of the object's composition
If wire is securely held on sheet material, then positioning stability is improved, but peeling strength between wire and sheet becomes insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The adhesive tape member acts as an intermediary that provides both positioning stability and peeling strength. The adhesive surface bonds to the wire while the other surface bonds to the sheet material, creating a secure connection that simultaneously achieves stable positioning and high peeling resistance, even when direct fusion between wire and sheet material is not feasible.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This configuration allows for easy and firm attachment of wire-like transmission members to the sheet member, ensuring stable positioning and reliable holding, even when fusion is not feasible, and enables the combination of fusion-capable and non-fusion-capable wires in a thin wiring setup.
Implementation Method 1
at least one adhesive tape member whose one main surface is an adhesive surface... is adhered to the sheet member with interposition of the adhesive surface

AI summary
A wiring member includes: a wire-like transmission member; a sheet member including a main surface on which the wire-like transmission member is disposed; and at least one adhesive tape member whose one main surface is an adhesive surface. The at least one adhesive tape member surrounds the wire-like transmission member in a state where the adhesive surface faces toward the wire-like transmission member. The at least one adhesive tape member extends outward from the wire-like transmission member and is adhered to the sheet member with interposition of the adhesive surface.
