Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid an increase in sliding resistance between a guide rail and a guided member. <P>SOLUTION: There is a fear that a movable end side horizontal cabling part 30b of the conductive path 30 which extends from the movable end 37 along the guide rail 12 approaches the guide rail 12 side and becomes skew against the guide rail 12 when the moving end 37 and a guided member 38 move to the fold back side of the conductive path 30, if a gap is present between the movable end 37 of the conductive path 30 and the guide rail 12. However, a sliding part 43 provided to the conductive path 30 slides on a sliding guide part 13 so that the movable end side horizontal cabling part 30b is kept parallel to the guide rail 12. Therefore, a reactive force acting on the guided member 38 from the movable end 37 side comes to be parallel to the guide rail 12, thus avoiding an increase in the sliding resistance at the contact part between the guided member 38 and the guide rail 12. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

JP 2003-25850 A

導電路の可動端は、ガイドレールに対して直接嵌合されているのではなく、ガイドレールに嵌合されている被ガイド部材に支持されている。そのため、導電路の可動端とガイドレールとの間には、ガイドレールによるガイド方向、即ち可動端の移動方向と交差する方向に隙間が生じることがある。   The movable end of the conductive path is not directly fitted to the guide rail, but is supported by a guided member fitted to the guide rail. Therefore, a gap may be generated between the movable end of the conductive path and the guide rail in the guide direction by the guide rail, that is, the direction intersecting the moving direction of the movable end.

このような隙間が空いている構造になっている場合、可動端と被ガイド部材が導電路の折返部側へ移動するときに、導電路のうち可動端からガイドレールに沿って延びている部分が、ガイドレール側へ変位してガイドレールに対して斜め姿勢となり、可動端側から被ガイド部材に作用する反力もガイドレールに対して斜めの方向になる。このように被ガイド部材に対する反力がガイドレールに対して斜め姿勢になると、被ガイド部材とガイドレールとの接触部分における摺動抵抗が増大して、被ガイド部材の円滑な摺動が妨げられることが懸念される。   When the gap is open, when the movable end and the guided member move to the folded portion side of the conductive path, the portion of the conductive path that extends along the guide rail from the movable end However, it is displaced to the guide rail side to be inclined with respect to the guide rail, and the reaction force acting on the guided member from the movable end side is also inclined to the guide rail.

<Invention of Claim 1>
When there is a gap between the movable end of the conductive path and the guide rail, the movable end and the guided member move from the movable end of the conductive path along the guide rail when moving toward the folded portion of the conductive path. There is a concern that the extending portion approaches the guide rail side and assumes an oblique posture with respect to the guide rail. However, in the present invention, when the sliding contact means provided on the conductive path is in sliding contact with the sliding guide means, the portion extending from the movable end of the conductive path is maintained in a posture parallel to the guide rail. Therefore, the reaction force acting on the guided member from the movable end side is in a direction parallel to the guide rail. This avoids an increase in sliding resistance at the contact portion between the guided member and the guide rail.

<Embodiment 1>
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

本実施形態のガイド装置Aは、自動車の車体(図示せず)の左側に設けたスライドドアSに固定して取り付けられ、車体に設けた車体側回路(図示せず)とスライドドアSに設けたドア側回路(図示せず)とを電気的に接続するための可撓性を有する導電路30を、スライドドアSの開閉に伴なって所定の領域内で折り返し状に屈曲させつつ配索される状態を保つようにガイドするようになっている。尚、以下の説明において、前後方向については図1,図4及び図5における右方向を前方とし、左右方向については図2及び図3を基準とする。   The guide device A of the present embodiment is fixedly attached to a slide door S provided on the left side of a vehicle body (not shown) of an automobile, and is provided on a vehicle body side circuit (not shown) provided on the vehicle body and the slide door S. A flexible conductive path 30 for electrically connecting to a door-side circuit (not shown) is bent while being folded back in a predetermined area as the slide door S is opened and closed. It is designed to guide you so that you can keep it. In the following description, with respect to the front-rear direction, the right direction in FIGS. 1, 4 and 5 is the front, and the left-right direction is based on FIGS. 2 and 3.

ガイド装置Aは、左右一対のベース部材10(本発明の構成要件であるガイド部材)と、左側のベース部材10の上端縁に取り付けられた規制部材20(本発明の構成要件である保持部材)とを備えている。ベース部材10は導電路30の下側に位置する可動端37を案内する機能を有し、規制部材20は導電路30の上側に位置する固定端36を保持する機能を有しており、ガイド装置Aは、この2つの機能を上下2段に分かれて配された別個の部材(ベース部材10と規制部材20)に分担させていることになる。   The guide device A includes a pair of left and right base members 10 (guide members that are constituent elements of the present invention) and a regulating member 20 that is attached to the upper edge of the left base member 10 (holding members that are constituent elements of the present invention). And. The base member 10 has a function of guiding the movable end 37 positioned on the lower side of the conductive path 30, and the regulating member 20 has a function of holding the fixed end 36 positioned on the upper side of the conductive path 30. In the device A, these two functions are shared by separate members (the base member 10 and the regulating member 20) arranged in two upper and lower stages.

ベース部材10は、前後方向(即ち、スライドドアSの開閉時の移動方向とほぼ平行)に直線状に延びた形態であり、アルミニウム合金製の長尺の略平板状をなす押出材、即ち、長さ方向と直交する横断面形状が全長に亘って一定の材料からなる。この押出材は、車種(即ち、スライドドアSの前後長やスライドドアSにおけるガイド装置Aの収容スペース等)に応じて、所定の長さに切断され、これによりベース部材10が得られる。切断されて得られた2つのベース部材10は、左右対称となるように互いに平行に配置されている。   The base member 10 has a form extending linearly in the front-rear direction (that is, substantially parallel to the moving direction when the slide door S is opened and closed), and is an extruded material having a long, substantially flat plate shape made of aluminum alloy, that is, The cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the length direction is made of a constant material over the entire length. This extruded material is cut into a predetermined length according to the vehicle type (that is, the longitudinal length of the sliding door S, the accommodation space of the guide device A in the sliding door S, etc.), and thereby the base member 10 is obtained. The two base members 10 obtained by cutting are arranged in parallel to each other so as to be symmetrical.

ベース部材10の形状及び向きについて説明すると、一対のベース部材10は、略平板状をなす本体部11の内面同士が互いに平行をなして左右方向に対向する向きで、互いに同じ高さに配置されている。本体部11の下端部には、横向きの略U字形断面をなすとともにその折返部分を内側に位置させたガイドレール12が、互いに同じ高さで内側へ突出するように形成されている。   The shape and orientation of the base member 10 will be described. The pair of base members 10 are arranged at the same height in such a direction that the inner surfaces of the substantially flat main body 11 are parallel to each other and face in the left-right direction. ing. At the lower end of the main body 11, guide rails 12 having a substantially U-shaped cross section in the horizontal direction and a folded portion positioned inside are formed so as to protrude inward at the same height.

また、本体部11のガイドレール12よりも僅かに上方の位置には、横向きの略I字形(水平板状)をなす摺接案内部13(本発明の構成要件である摺接案内手段)が、本体部11の内面から内側へ略直角に突出する形態で、且つ互いに同じ高さで形成されている。この摺接案内部13の本体部11の内面からの突出寸法は、ガイドレール12の本体部11の内面からの突出寸法とほぼ同じである。尚、摺接案内部の突出寸法については、後述する摺接部43が当接する(引っ掛かる)ことのできる寸法であれば、ガイドレール12の突出寸法よりも長く又は短くてもよい。   Further, at a position slightly above the guide rail 12 of the main body portion 11, there is a sliding contact guide portion 13 (sliding contact guide means which is a constituent element of the present invention) having a substantially horizontal I shape (horizontal plate shape). The main body 11 protrudes from the inner surface to the inside at a substantially right angle and is formed at the same height. The projecting dimension of the sliding guide part 13 from the inner surface of the main body part 11 is substantially the same as the projecting dimension of the guide rail 12 from the inner surface of the main body part 11. In addition, about the protrusion dimension of the sliding contact guide part, as long as the sliding contact part 43 mentioned later can contact | abut (hook), it may be longer or shorter than the protrusion dimension of the guide rail 12. FIG.

また、本体部11の上端部には、規制部材20を取り付けるための取付部14が形成されている。取付部14は取付溝15を有し、その取付溝15の内部空間は、L字形に屈曲した断面形状、即ち略上半分領域の左右幅が略下半分領域の左右幅よりも大きくなった断面形状をなしている。また、取付溝15の上端は、その内部空間における略上半分領域の幅寸法よりも幅狭の開口部として上方へ開放されている。この開口部は内側へ偏って配置されており、これにより、ベース部材10(取付部14)の上端面には、開口部の外側に隣接して位置する水平受け面16が構成されている。   An attachment portion 14 for attaching the regulating member 20 is formed at the upper end portion of the main body portion 11. The mounting portion 14 has a mounting groove 15, and the inner space of the mounting groove 15 is an L-shaped cross-sectional shape, that is, a cross section in which the left and right width of the substantially upper half region is larger than the left and right width of the substantially lower half region. It has a shape. Further, the upper end of the mounting groove 15 is opened upward as an opening portion narrower than the width dimension of the substantially upper half region in the internal space. The opening is arranged inwardly, and thus, a horizontal receiving surface 16 located adjacent to the outside of the opening is formed on the upper end surface of the base member 10 (mounting portion 14).

また、ベース部材10には、その長さ方向(前後方向)における適当な間隔を空けて複数の叩き出し部17が形成されている。叩き出し部17は、円形をなし、内側へ皿状に膨出した形態であり、この叩き出し部17には同心円形の貫通孔18が形成されている。   Further, the base member 10 is formed with a plurality of hitting portions 17 with appropriate intervals in the length direction (front-rear direction). The hitting portion 17 has a circular shape and is bulged in the shape of a dish. The hitting portion 17 has a concentric circular through hole 18 formed therein.

左右一対のベース部材10は、軸線を左右方向に向けた円筒状のスペーサ19を介して一体に組み付けられている。スペーサ19の左右両端面を叩き出し部17の内面に密着させた状態で、一方のベース部材10の貫通孔18に外側から貫通させたボルト(図示せず)をスペーサ19の中空内に貫通させて他方のベース部材10の貫通孔18から外側へ突出させ、そのボルトの突出部分にナット(図示せず)を螺合して締め付けることにより、一対のベース部材10が、スペーサ19により所定の間隔を空けた状態で固定されている。   The pair of left and right base members 10 are assembled together via a cylindrical spacer 19 having an axis line in the left-right direction. With the left and right end surfaces of the spacer 19 being in close contact with the inner surface of the protruding portion 17, a bolt (not shown) that has been penetrated from the outside into the through hole 18 of one base member 10 is penetrated into the hollow of the spacer 19. Then, the base member 10 is protruded outward from the through hole 18 of the other base member 10, and a nut (not shown) is screwed and tightened to the protruding portion of the bolt, whereby the pair of base members 10 are separated by a spacer 19 at a predetermined interval. It is fixed in a state with a gap.

規制部材20は、全体として略平板状をなす。規制部材20の前後長はベース部材10よりも短く、規制部材20の高さ寸法は、規制部材20の前後長よりも小さく且つベース部材10の高さ寸法よりも大きい。規制部材20は、本実施形態では合成樹脂製であるが、金属製としてもよい。規制部材20は、左側のベース部材10に対してその上方へほぼ面一に連なるように配されている。規制部材20の下端面には、前後方向に延びるリブ21が規制部材20の全長に亘って下向きに突出形成されている。リブ21は、取付溝15に緊密に嵌合し得る略L字形の断面形状を有する。また、規制部材20の下端面、即ちリブ21が形成されている面におけるリブ21よりも外側の領域は、ベース部材10の取付部14の水平受け面16と密着する水平当接面22となっている。かかる規制部材20は、その後端を左側のベース部材10の後端と合致させるようにして、リブ21を取付溝15に嵌合させるとともに水平当接面22を水平受け面16に対して面接触状に当接させた状態で取り付けられている。   The restriction member 20 has a substantially flat plate shape as a whole. The longitudinal length of the regulating member 20 is shorter than the base member 10, and the height dimension of the regulating member 20 is smaller than the longitudinal length of the regulating member 20 and larger than the height dimension of the base member 10. The regulating member 20 is made of synthetic resin in the present embodiment, but may be made of metal. The restriction member 20 is arranged so as to be substantially flush with the left base member 10 upward. A rib 21 extending in the front-rear direction is formed on the lower end surface of the regulating member 20 so as to protrude downward over the entire length of the regulating member 20. The rib 21 has a substantially L-shaped cross-sectional shape that can be closely fitted in the mounting groove 15. Further, the lower end surface of the regulating member 20, that is, the region outside the rib 21 on the surface where the rib 21 is formed, is a horizontal contact surface 22 that is in close contact with the horizontal receiving surface 16 of the mounting portion 14 of the base member 10. ing. The restricting member 20 has the rear end thereof matched with the rear end of the left base member 10, and the rib 21 is fitted into the mounting groove 15 and the horizontal contact surface 22 is in surface contact with the horizontal receiving surface 16. It is attached in a state of being in contact with the shape.

規制部材20の内側の面(右側面)における前端部と後端部には、夫々、内側へ突出する複数の補強壁からなる前部補強部23と後部補強部24とが形成されている。規制部材20の外側の面にも、前部補強部23及び後部補強部24よりも突出寸法は小さく、複数の補強壁から構成される外面側補強部25が形成されている。   A front reinforcing portion 23 and a rear reinforcing portion 24 each formed of a plurality of reinforcing walls projecting inward are formed on the front end portion and the rear end portion of the inner surface (right side surface) of the regulating member 20. On the outer surface of the restricting member 20, an outer surface side reinforcing portion 25 constituted by a plurality of reinforcing walls is formed with a projecting dimension smaller than that of the front reinforcing portion 23 and the rear reinforcing portion 24.

規制部材20の前後方向に直線状に延びた上縁には、内側(右側)へ略直角に突出する規制壁26(本発明の構成要件である規制部)が形成されている。この規制壁26の突出寸法は、後述する導電路30の保持片34の幅寸法よりも僅かに大きい寸法、即ち、左右両ベース部材10間の間隔よりも僅かに小さい寸法とされている。また、規制壁26の前後両端部は前部補強部23及び後部補強部24に連なっている。さらに、規制壁26の前端部における前傾勾配の傾斜部27には、後述する導電路30の固定端36を保持するための切欠部28が形成されている。   On the upper edge of the restricting member 20 that extends linearly in the front-rear direction, a restricting wall 26 (a restricting portion that is a constituent feature of the present invention) is formed to protrude inwardly (rightward) at a substantially right angle. The projecting dimension of the restriction wall 26 is slightly larger than the width dimension of the holding piece 34 of the conductive path 30 described later, that is, slightly smaller than the distance between the left and right base members 10. Further, both front and rear end portions of the restriction wall 26 are connected to the front reinforcing portion 23 and the rear reinforcing portion 24. Further, a notched portion 28 for holding a fixed end 36 of the conductive path 30 described later is formed in the inclined portion 27 of the forward inclination gradient at the front end portion of the regulating wall 26.

次に、導電路30について説明する。   Next, the conductive path 30 will be described.

導電路30は、複数本の電線31を束ねたハーネス32と、このハーネス32を折り返された形態に保持するための可撓性保持体33とを備えている。可撓性保持体33は、内部がハーネス32を挿通できるように中空とされた枠状をなす複数の保持片34を左右方向の連結軸35(本発明の構成要件である軸)により相対変位可能に且つ直列状に連結して構成されている。可撓性保持体33は、各連結軸35を支点として隣り合う保持片34同士が連結軸35と直交する二次元平面上において自在に屈曲し得るようにした有端のキャタピラ状若しくはチェーン状をなす。可撓性保持体33が屈曲するときには、捻れたり、保持片34同士が連結軸35の軸線と平行な方向へ傾動したりすることはない。ハーネス32は、各保持片34の内部を貫通する形態で可撓性保持体33により一体に変位(屈曲)するように保持されている。また、保持片34の左右幅寸法は、ベース部材10間の間隔よりも小さい寸法となっている。   The conductive path 30 includes a harness 32 in which a plurality of electric wires 31 are bundled, and a flexible holding body 33 for holding the harness 32 in a folded shape. The flexible holding body 33 relatively displaces a plurality of holding pieces 34 having a frame shape that is hollow so that the harness 32 can be inserted through the connecting shaft 35 in the left-right direction (an axis that is a constituent feature of the present invention). It is possible and connected in series. The flexible holding body 33 has an endless caterpillar shape or a chain shape so that adjacent holding pieces 34 can be freely bent on a two-dimensional plane orthogonal to the connecting shaft 35 with each connecting shaft 35 as a fulcrum. Eggplant. When the flexible holding body 33 is bent, the holding pieces 34 are not twisted or tilted in a direction parallel to the axis of the connecting shaft 35. The harness 32 is held so as to be integrally displaced (bent) by the flexible holding body 33 in a form penetrating the inside of each holding piece 34. Further, the horizontal width dimension of the holding piece 34 is smaller than the interval between the base members 10.

かかる導電路30は、その上側に位置する一方の端部である固定端36(即ち、可撓性保持体33の一端側の最端位置に連結されている保持片34)がガイド装置Aに対して移動規制されるとともに、固定端36よりも下方に位置する他方の端部である可動端37(即ち、可撓性保持体33の他端側の最端位置に連結されている保持片34)がガイド装置Aに対して前後方向へ直線的に(即ち、スライドドアSの移動経路と平行に)移動し得るように案内された状態で、且つ略半円状に折り返されてその折返部から固定端36側の保持片34列と可動端37側の保持片34列が共に前方へ水平に延出し得るように配索された状態でガイド装置Aに取り付けられている。   The conductive path 30 has a fixed end 36 (that is, a holding piece 34 connected to the extreme end position on the one end side of the flexible holding body 33), which is one end portion located above the conductive path 30, in the guide device A. On the other hand, while being restricted in movement, the movable end 37 which is the other end located below the fixed end 36 (that is, the holding piece connected to the extreme end position on the other end side of the flexible holding body 33) 34) is guided so that it can move linearly in the front-rear direction with respect to the guide device A (that is, parallel to the movement path of the slide door S), and is folded back in a substantially semicircular shape. Both the holding piece 34 row on the fixed end 36 side and the holding piece 34 row on the movable end 37 side are attached to the guide device A in such a state that they can be extended horizontally forward.

固定端36の外面にはスリット36aが形成されており、このスリット36aを規制部材20の切欠部28に緊密に嵌合させることにより、導電路30の固定端36が規制部材20に対して移動規制された状態で固定されている。この固定端36の内部にはハーネス32が挿通されており、このハーネス32は、スライドドアSに配索されているドア側回路に接続されている。   A slit 36 a is formed on the outer surface of the fixed end 36, and the fixed end 36 of the conductive path 30 moves relative to the regulating member 20 by closely fitting the slit 36 a to the notch 28 of the regulating member 20. It is fixed in a regulated state. A harness 32 is inserted into the fixed end 36, and the harness 32 is connected to a door side circuit routed in the slide door S.

可動端37には、保持片34よりも上下寸法及び前後寸法の大きい被ガイド部材38が、その上端部前端において保持片34同士を連結する連結軸35と平行な連結軸35により相対変位可能に連結されている。この被ガイド部材38の内部にはハーネス32が挿通されており、このハーネス32は、被ガイド部材38の下端部(即ち、ベース部材10よりも下方の位置)に連結された蛇腹状のゴムブーツ39の内部に挿通されて車体側回路に接続されている。   At the movable end 37, a guided member 38 having a vertical dimension and a longitudinal dimension larger than the holding piece 34 can be relatively displaced by a connecting shaft 35 parallel to the connecting shaft 35 connecting the holding pieces 34 at the front end of the upper end portion. It is connected. A harness 32 is inserted into the guided member 38, and the harness 32 is connected to a lower end portion of the guided member 38 (that is, a position below the base member 10) and has a bellows-like rubber boot 39. And is connected to the vehicle body side circuit.

被ガイド部材38の左右両側面における可動端37よりも下方の位置には、前後方向に直線状に延びる一対の被ガイド溝40が形成されている。この一対の被ガイド溝40は、ベース部材10の一対のガイドレール12に対して上下方向へのガタ付きを規制され、且つ前後方向への移動を自在に嵌合されている。これにより、被ガイド部材38及び可動端37が、ベース部材10に対してスライドドアSの移動方向と平行に前後方向へ移動し得るようにガイドされている。   A pair of guided grooves 40 extending linearly in the front-rear direction are formed at positions below the movable end 37 on both the left and right side surfaces of the guided member 38. The pair of guided grooves 40 are regulated to be rattled in the vertical direction with respect to the pair of guide rails 12 of the base member 10 and are freely fitted in the front-rear direction. Thus, the guided member 38 and the movable end 37 are guided so as to be movable in the front-rear direction in parallel to the moving direction of the slide door S with respect to the base member 10.

このようにして導電路30をベース部材10及び規制部材20によって保持させたガイド装置Aは、スライドドアSの外側の金属パネルSaと内側の樹脂パネルSbとの間の空間内に収容され、金属パネルSaに対してベース部材10及び規制部材20の左側面を近接して対向させた状態で固定されている。尚、固定手段については、ベース部材10及び規制部材20の所定位置に溶接、ボルト締めなどにより予め取り付けられているブラケットScを利用する。また、ガイド装置Aは金属パネルSaに比較的近い位置に配置されているが、樹脂パネルSbとの間には大きな空間が空けられているため、導電路30が樹脂パネルSbと干渉する虞はない。   In this way, the guide device A in which the conductive path 30 is held by the base member 10 and the regulating member 20 is accommodated in a space between the outer metal panel Sa and the inner resin panel Sb of the slide door S. The base member 10 and the restricting member 20 are fixed in a state where the left side surfaces of the base member 10 and the regulating member 20 are close to each other and face the panel Sa. In addition, about the fixing means, bracket Sc previously attached to the predetermined position of the base member 10 and the control member 20 by welding, bolting, etc. is utilized. Further, the guide device A is disposed at a position relatively close to the metal panel Sa, but since there is a large space between the guide panel A and the resin panel Sb, there is a possibility that the conductive path 30 may interfere with the resin panel Sb. Absent.

スライドドアSがその移動領域の前端に位置して閉じられた状態(図4を参照)においては、導電路30のうち固定端36側の領域(以下、「固定端側水平配索部30a」という)が規制部材20の右側面及び規制壁26の下面に沿い且つ規制壁26のほぼ全長に亘ってほぼ水平(直線状)に配索されるとともに、可動端37側の領域(以下、「可動端側水平配索部30b」という)が両ベース部材10の間に挟まれた状態でガイドレール12の上面に沿ってほぼ水平(直線状)に配索され、さらに固定端側水平配索部30aと可動端側水平配索部30bの後端同士の間で略半円弧状に屈曲された領域(本発明の導電路30の折返部に相当する領域であって、以下、「弧状配索部30c」ということにする)が、後部補強部24に沿うように配索されている。このとき、被ガイド部材38と可動端37は、ガイドレール12のうちの後端寄りの位置にあり、可動端側水平配索部30bの長さは固定端側水平配索部30aよりも短くなっている。   In a state where the sliding door S is positioned and closed at the front end of the moving region (see FIG. 4), the region on the fixed end 36 side of the conductive path 30 (hereinafter, “fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a”). Are arranged along the right side surface of the restricting member 20 and the lower surface of the restricting wall 26 and substantially horizontally (straight) over almost the entire length of the restricting wall 26, and an area on the movable end 37 side (hereinafter, “ The movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b ”) is sandwiched between the base members 10, and is routed substantially horizontally (straight) along the upper surface of the guide rail 12, and further the fixed end side horizontal routing. A region bent in a substantially semicircular arc shape between the rear ends of the portion 30a and the movable end side horizontal wiring portion 30b (a region corresponding to the folded portion of the conductive path 30 of the present invention, hereinafter referred to as “arc-shaped arrangement”). The cable portion 30c ") along the rear reinforcing portion 24. It is search. At this time, the guided member 38 and the movable end 37 are located near the rear end of the guide rail 12, and the length of the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b is shorter than that of the fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a. It has become.

一方、スライドドアSが閉じられた状態から開かれた状態(図5を参照)へ後方へ移動すると、被ガイド部材38が相対的にガイドレール12の前端部まで移動することになる。これに伴い、固定端側水平配索部30aを構成していた保持片34が弧状配索部30cを構成するように下方へ移行するとともに、弧状配索部30cを構成していた保持片34が可動端側水平配索部30bを構成する位置へ下方へ移行し、これによって、可動端側水平配索部30bが全体的に前方へ移動しつつその前後長を増していくとともに、弧状配索部30cが全体として前方へ変位し、固定端側水平配索部30aの前後長が次第に短くなって最終的に固定端側水平配索部30aが消失する状態となる。   On the other hand, when the slide door S moves backward from the closed state (see FIG. 5), the guided member 38 relatively moves to the front end of the guide rail 12. Accordingly, the holding piece 34 constituting the fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a moves downward so as to constitute the arcuate routing portion 30c, and the holding piece 34 constituting the arcuate routing portion 30c. Is moved downward to a position constituting the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b, whereby the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b is moved forward as a whole, and its longitudinal length is increased, and the arcuate arrangement The cable portion 30c is displaced forward as a whole, and the longitudinal length of the fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a is gradually shortened so that the fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a finally disappears.

そして、この開状態からスライドドアSを閉じるのに伴ない、弧状配索部30cが後方へ移動しつつ固定端側水平配索部30aの長さが長くなるのであるが、このとき、保持片34の弧の外側となる面が規制壁26の下面に衝突する虞がある。ここで、保持片34は、剛性を確保するためにガラス繊維入りのポリアミド製とされていることから、規制壁26に衝突したときに大きな衝突音が発生することが懸念される。そこで、可撓性保持体33を構成する複数の保持片34のうち2つおきに配された保持片34には、夫々、POM(ポリアセタール)製の緩衝部材41が取り付けられている。緩衝部材41をPOM製としたことにより、緩衝部材41が規制壁26に衝突したときに発生する衝突音が、保持片34の衝突音よりも小さく抑えられている。   As the sliding door S is closed from this open state, the length of the fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a is increased while the arcuate routing portion 30c moves rearward. There is a possibility that a surface which is outside the arc of 34 may collide with the lower surface of the regulating wall 26. Here, since the holding piece 34 is made of polyamide containing glass fiber in order to ensure rigidity, there is a concern that a large collision sound is generated when the holding piece 34 collides with the regulation wall 26. Therefore, a buffer member 41 made of POM (polyacetal) is attached to each of the holding pieces 34 arranged every two of the holding pieces 34 constituting the flexible holding body 33. Since the buffer member 41 is made of POM, the collision sound generated when the buffer member 41 collides with the restriction wall 26 is suppressed to be smaller than the collision sound of the holding piece 34.

緩衝部材41は、保持片34同士を連結する連結軸35と平行であり、且つ保持片34の両端の2つの連結軸35同士を結ぶ仮想線(仮想面)と平行をなす平板部42を有しており、この平板部42が規制壁26に当接することにより、規制壁26への衝突音が低減されるようになっている。   The buffer member 41 has a flat plate portion 42 that is parallel to the connecting shaft 35 that connects the holding pieces 34 and that is parallel to an imaginary line (imaginary plane) that connects the two connecting shafts 35 at both ends of the holding piece 34. In addition, when the flat plate portion 42 abuts against the regulation wall 26, the collision sound with the regulation wall 26 is reduced.

また、上記のように可動端37に連結された被ガイド部材38は、可動端37よりも下方の位置に形成した被ガイド溝40をガイドレール12に嵌合させているため、ガイドレール12の上面と可動端側水平配索部30bの下面との間に隙間が空いている。したがって、この隙間のために可動端側水平配索部30bが下方へ垂れ下がるように湾曲する虞がある。そこで、本実施形態では、緩衝部材41の平板部42のうち保持片34よりも外側へ翼状に張り出した左右両側縁部を摺接部43(本発明の構成要件である摺接手段)として機能させるようにしている。可動端側水平配索部30bを構成する保持片34に取り付けられている緩衝部材41の一対の摺接部43は、左右一対のベース部材10の摺接案内部13の上面に対して同時に面接触状態で当接又は摺接し得るようになっている。   In addition, the guided member 38 connected to the movable end 37 as described above has a guided groove 40 formed at a position below the movable end 37 fitted to the guide rail 12, so that the guide rail 12 There is a gap between the upper surface and the lower surface of the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b. Therefore, there is a possibility that the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b may be bent so as to hang downward due to the gap. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the right and left side edge portions of the flat plate portion 42 of the buffer member 41 projecting in a wing shape outward from the holding piece 34 function as the slidable contact portion 43 (the slidable contact means that is a component of the present invention). I try to let them. The pair of sliding contact portions 43 of the buffer member 41 attached to the holding piece 34 constituting the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b is simultaneously surfaced with respect to the upper surfaces of the sliding contact guide portions 13 of the pair of left and right base members 10. It can come into contact with or slide in contact.

本実施形態では、導電路30の可動端37とガイドレール12との間に上下方向の隙間が空いているため、可動端37と被ガイド部材38が導電路30の弧状配索部30c側(折返部側)へ移動するときに、導電路30のうち可動端37からガイドレール12に沿って延びている可動端側水平配索部30bが、ガイドレール12側へ垂れ下がるように接近してガイドレール12(被ガイド部材38の移動方向)に対して斜め姿勢となり、その結果、可動端37側から被ガイド部材38に作用する反力がガイドレール12に対して斜め方向となり、被ガイド部材38とガイドレール12との接触部分における摺動抵抗が増大することが懸念される。   In the present embodiment, since there is a vertical gap between the movable end 37 of the conductive path 30 and the guide rail 12, the movable end 37 and the guided member 38 are on the arcuate routing portion 30 c side of the conductive path 30 ( When moving to the folding portion side), the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30b extending from the movable end 37 along the guide rail 12 of the conductive path 30 approaches the guide rail 12 so as to hang down to the guide rail 12 side. As a result, the reaction force acting on the guided member 38 from the movable end 37 side becomes the oblique direction with respect to the guide rail 12, and as a result, the guided member 38 is inclined. There is a concern that the sliding resistance at the contact portion between the guide rail 12 and the guide rail 12 increases.

しかし、本実施形態では、ベース部材10にガイドレール12と平行な摺接案内部13を形成し、導電路30には摺接案内部13と摺接可能な摺接部43を設け、摺接部43が摺接案内部13に摺接する状態では、導電路30のうちの摺接部43が設けられている領域のうちの可動端側水平配索部30bがガイドレール12に対して平行な姿勢に保たれるようにしている。これにより、可動端37側から被ガイド部材38に作用する反力がガイドレール12と平行な向きとなり、被ガイド部材38とガイドレール12との接触部分における摺動抵抗の増大が回避されている。   However, in the present embodiment, the base member 10 is formed with the sliding contact guide portion 13 parallel to the guide rail 12, and the conductive path 30 is provided with the sliding contact portion 43 capable of sliding contact with the sliding contact guide portion 13. In a state where the portion 43 is in sliding contact with the sliding contact guide portion 13, the movable end side horizontal routing portion 30 b in the region where the sliding contact portion 43 of the conductive path 30 is provided is parallel to the guide rail 12. I try to keep my posture. As a result, the reaction force acting on the guided member 38 from the movable end 37 side becomes parallel to the guide rail 12, and an increase in sliding resistance at the contact portion between the guided member 38 and the guide rail 12 is avoided. .

また、摺接部43の形成されている緩衝部材41は、導電路30の長さ方向において間隔を空けた複数位置に配置されているので、摺接部43が導電路30の長さ方向において連続している場合に比べると、摺接部43と摺接案内部13との間の摺動抵抗が低減されている。   Moreover, since the buffer member 41 in which the sliding contact portion 43 is formed is disposed at a plurality of positions spaced in the length direction of the conductive path 30, the sliding contact portion 43 is disposed in the length direction of the conductive path 30. Compared with the case where it continues, the sliding resistance between the sliding contact part 43 and the sliding contact guide part 13 is reduced.

また、導電路30を挟んでガイドレール12とは反対の上側に位置するとともに、固定端側水平配索部30a(導電路30の固定端36に連なる部分)の配索経路に沿うことでその固定端側水平配索部30aが上方へ膨らむように変位することを規制する規制壁26を設け、さらに、導電路30のうちの規制壁26と対応可能な面に緩衝部材41を設け、導電路30の弧状配索部30c(折返部)が規制壁26に向かいつつ略直線状の固定端側水平配索部30aへと変位する際に、緩衝部材41を規制壁26に当接させるようにすることで、保持片34が規制壁26と衝突するときよりも衝突音を小さくするようにしているが、本実施形態では、この緩衝部材41を利用し、この緩衝部材41の左右両側縁部を摺接部43として機能させるようにしている。つまり、緩衝部材41が摺接手段としての摺接部43を兼ねているので、摺接手段を緩衝部材とは別体のものとした場合に比べて、部品点数の増大を回避することができるようになっている。   In addition, it is located on the upper side opposite to the guide rail 12 with the conductive path 30 interposed therebetween, and along the routing path of the fixed end side horizontal routing part 30a (part connected to the fixed end 36 of the conductive path 30) A restriction wall 26 for restricting displacement of the fixed end side horizontal wiring portion 30a so as to swell upward is provided, and a buffer member 41 is provided on a surface of the conductive path 30 that can correspond to the restriction wall 26 to When the arcuate routing portion 30c (folding portion) of the path 30 is displaced toward the substantially straight fixed end side horizontal routing portion 30a while facing the regulating wall 26, the buffer member 41 is brought into contact with the regulating wall 26. By doing so, the collision sound is made smaller than when the holding piece 34 collides with the restriction wall 26. In this embodiment, the buffer member 41 is used, and both the left and right edges of the buffer member 41 are used. The part functions as the sliding contact part 43 It has to. That is, since the buffer member 41 also serves as the sliding contact portion 43 as the sliding contact means, it is possible to avoid an increase in the number of parts compared to the case where the sliding contact means is separate from the buffer member. It is like that.

また、摺接案内部13が一対のベース部材10の双方に形成され、摺接手段としての緩衝部材41の幅方向(左右方向)における両側縁部(摺接部43)が一対の摺接案内部13に摺接されるようにしているが、もし、導電路30が左右に傾いたり捻れたりするような構造の場合、摺接案内部13に摺接するのが左右いずれか一方の摺接部43のみになってしまい、その結果、摺動抵抗が増大してしまうことが懸念される。しかし、本実施形態の導電路30の骨組みを構成している可撓性保持体33は、複数の保持片34を、一対の摺接部43の離間方向と平行な連結軸35によって直列状に連結した形態とされているので、導電路30が左右に傾いたり捻れたりする虞がなく、一対の摺接部43が一対の摺接案内部13の双方に摺接する状態に保つことができる。   The sliding contact guide portions 13 are formed on both of the pair of base members 10, and both side edges (sliding contact portions 43) in the width direction (left-right direction) of the buffer member 41 as the sliding contact means are a pair of sliding contact guides. In this structure, the conductive path 30 is tilted to the left or right or twisted, and either of the left and right sliding parts is in sliding contact with the sliding contact guide part 13. As a result, there is a concern that the sliding resistance increases. However, the flexible holding body 33 constituting the framework of the conductive path 30 of the present embodiment has a plurality of holding pieces 34 arranged in series by a connecting shaft 35 parallel to the separating direction of the pair of sliding contact portions 43. Since it is set as the connected form, there is no possibility that the conductive path 30 may be tilted to the left or right or twisted, and the pair of sliding contact portions 43 can be kept in a state of sliding contact with both the pair of sliding contact guide portions 13.

また、導電路30の可動端37を案内するためのガイドレールを有するベース部材をプレス成形によって製造する場合、異なる車種に対応させるためには、車種別に専用のプレス型を用意する必要があるので、コストが高騰することが懸念される。しかし、本実施形態のベース部材10は、ガイドレール12と平行な方向と直交する断面形状が全長に亘って一定な形態とされているので、長尺に成形した原材(押出材)を車種に合わせて所定の長さに切断するだけでベース部材10を得ることが可能である。したがって、車種別にプレス型を用意する必要がなく、コスト低減を図ることができる。また、ベース部材10は、可動端37の移動経路を挟んで対称な形態とされているので、長尺に形成する原材が1種類だけで済み、この点においてもコスト低減を図ることができるようになっている。   Further, when a base member having a guide rail for guiding the movable end 37 of the conductive path 30 is manufactured by press molding, it is necessary to prepare a dedicated press die for each vehicle type in order to cope with different vehicle types. There is concern that costs will soar. However, since the base member 10 of the present embodiment has a constant cross-sectional shape that is perpendicular to the direction parallel to the guide rail 12 over the entire length, the base material (extruded material) formed in a long shape is used for the vehicle type. It is possible to obtain the base member 10 only by cutting to a predetermined length according to the above. Therefore, it is not necessary to prepare a press die for each vehicle type, and costs can be reduced. Further, since the base member 10 is symmetrical with respect to the moving path of the movable end 37, only one type of raw material is required to be formed in a long shape, and the cost can be reduced also in this respect. It is like that.

また、導電路30の固定端36をスライドドアSに直接固定する構造の場合、ガイド装置AをスライドドアSに装着していない状態では、ガイド装置Aに対して導電路30がその可動端37のみを支持された状態となり、固定端36がふらついたりガイド装置Aから垂れ下がったりするため、ガイド装置Aと導電路30が扱い難くなることが懸念される。しかし、本実施形態では、ベース部材10の取付部14に規制部材20を取り付けて、その規制部材20に導電路30の固定端36を保持させておくことにより、ガイド装置Aに対して導電路30を両端支持状態で一体化させることができる。したがって、ガイド装置Aと導電路30の取り扱いが容易となる。   In the case where the fixed end 36 of the conductive path 30 is directly fixed to the slide door S, the conductive path 30 has a movable end 37 with respect to the guide apparatus A when the guide apparatus A is not attached to the slide door S. Since the fixed end 36 fluctuates or hangs down from the guide device A, there is a concern that the guide device A and the conductive path 30 become difficult to handle. However, in the present embodiment, the restricting member 20 is attached to the attachment portion 14 of the base member 10, and the restricting member 20 holds the fixed end 36 of the conductive path 30, so that the conductive path with respect to the guide device A is maintained. 30 can be integrated with both ends supported. Accordingly, the guide device A and the conductive path 30 can be easily handled.

また、ベース部材10の取付部14には、導電路30の移動経路に沿った形態の規制部材20が取り付けられているので、導電路30がその移動経路から外れる方向、即ち、上方や左方(スライドドアSの金属パネルSa側)へ変位することが防止されている。これにより、導電路30(可撓性保持体33)が金属パネルSaに干渉することが防止される。   In addition, since the regulating member 20 having a configuration along the movement path of the conductive path 30 is attached to the mounting portion 14 of the base member 10, the direction in which the conductive path 30 deviates from the movement path, that is, upward or leftward Displacement to the metal panel Sa side of the slide door S is prevented. This prevents the conductive path 30 (flexible holder 33) from interfering with the metal panel Sa.

<実施形態2>
本発明の実施形態2を図6によって説明する。
上記実施形態1では、摺接案内部13をガイドレール12とは別個に設けたが、本実施形態2では、ガイドレール12が摺接案内部(摺接案内手段)を兼用している。また、保持片34に取り付けられた緩衝部材50は、平板部51と、この平板部51の左右両側縁から直角下向き(ガイドレール12の埋め面に向かって)に突出する左右一対の板状をなす摺接部52とから構成される。そして、この両摺接部の下端面がガイドレール12の上面に当接又は摺接するようになっている。尚、上記以外の構成は、実施形態1と同じであるので、同一構成については同一符号を付すに留め、詳しい説明は省略する。
<Embodiment 2>
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
In the first embodiment, the sliding contact guide portion 13 is provided separately from the guide rail 12, but in the second embodiment, the guide rail 12 also serves as the sliding contact guide portion (sliding contact guide means). Further, the buffer member 50 attached to the holding piece 34 has a flat plate portion 51 and a pair of left and right plates protruding from the right and left side edges of the flat plate portion 51 downward at right angles (toward the filling surface of the guide rail 12). The slidable contact portion 52 is formed. The lower end surfaces of both sliding contact portions are in contact with or in sliding contact with the upper surface of the guide rail 12. Since the configuration other than the above is the same as that of the first embodiment, the same components are only given the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.
