Wire Protection Member Partitioning for Flat Wire Arrangement
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Multiple wires supported on a main surface of a wire supporting member tend to bulge at the central portion in the width direction, making it difficult to maintain a flat arrangement.
Innovation Solution
A wire module with a supporting plate portion that includes partitioning portions formed by cutting and raising the plate to restrict wire positions, using bundling members to press and draw wires to the center, ensuring they are flatly arranged and partitioned.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If multiple wires are supported on a main surface of the wire supporting member, then the wire supporting member can hold multiple wires, but the multiple wires tend to bulge at the central portion in the width direction
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting plate portion is divided into multiple regions by forming partitioning portions that extend in the width direction. These partitioning portions create separate zones for different wires, preventing them from bulging at the center by providing structural division and position restriction across the supporting surface
Solution Approach 2:
The partitioning portions are formed with varying heights along the length direction, creating different local support characteristics. The higher partitioning portions provide stronger lateral restriction at critical locations, while lower portions allow appropriate wire positioning, thereby maintaining overall flatness while supporting multiple wires
2Shape
If partitioning portions are formed by cutting and raising the supporting plate portion, then wire positions are restricted and bulging is prevented, but the manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The partitioning portions are formed by controlling the height parameter along the length direction of the supporting plate portion. By varying the height of partitioning portions at different locations, the invention achieves effective wire position restriction while using a relatively simple cutting and raising process rather than complex multi-step manufacturing

AI summary
A wire module includes multiple wires and a wire protection member including a supporting plate portion with a main surface on which the multiple wires can be arranged. A partitioning portion that partitions the plurality of wires in a width direction of the supporting plate portion is formed due to the supporting plate portion being partially cut and raised. A partitioning plate portion includes a first partitioning portion and a second partitioning portion that are cut and raised from mutually opposite sides in the width direction of the supporting plate portion and come into contact with each other in directions of supporting each other in their upright states, in a state of being mutually upright.
