Description

本発明は、締結部材を用いて線状部材を固定対象物に取り付ける際に用いる固定補助具に関する。より詳細には、本発明は、例えば、車両に搭載されるウィンドレギュレータにおいて使用される窓ガラスを駆動するケーブル等を、締結部材によりモータ等の固定対象物に固定する際に用いる固定補助具に関する。   The present invention relates to a fixing aid used when a linear member is attached to an object to be fixed using a fastening member. More specifically, the present invention relates to a fixing aid used when, for example, a cable for driving a window glass used in a window regulator mounted on a vehicle is fixed to a fixed object such as a motor by a fastening member. .

車両には多くの可動装置が搭載されているが、このような可動装置は、油圧システムおよび電磁ソレノイド等の駆動手段や、ケーブル等の可動部材によって動作される。これらのうち、ケーブルは、汎用のモータと組み合わせるだけで比較的簡単かつ安価な可動装置を構成することができるため、幅広い用途に使用されている。   Many movable devices are mounted on a vehicle, but such movable devices are operated by a drive unit such as a hydraulic system and an electromagnetic solenoid, or a movable member such as a cable. Among these, the cable is used for a wide range of applications because it can be configured as a relatively simple and inexpensive movable device only by combining with a general-purpose motor.

装置の動作に使用されるケーブルとしては、アクセルの開度を調節するアクセルワイヤの他、パワーウインドウやパワースライドドアなどを動作させる駆動ワイヤ等がある（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。   As a cable used for the operation of the apparatus, there are a drive wire for operating a power window, a power slide door, and the like in addition to an accelerator wire for adjusting the opening of the accelerator (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

このようなケーブルは、一般に、インナー部材とそれを外囲して保護する柔軟なアウター部材とからなる二重構造を有している。従来、このようなケーブルの取り付けは、締結部材（結束バンドなど）を用いて固定対象物（例えば、モータのヨーク部、フレーム等）に直接締め付けることによって行うか、あるいは、ケーブルを結束バンドで一旦ケーブル固定具に固定し、さらにこのケーブル固定具を別の結束バンドで対象物に取り付けていた（例えば、特許文献２参照。）。   Such a cable generally has a double structure including an inner member and a flexible outer member that surrounds and protects the inner member. Conventionally, such a cable is attached by directly fastening it to a fixed object (for example, a motor yoke, a frame, etc.) using a fastening member (such as a binding band), or once the cable is attached with a binding band. It fixed to the cable fixing tool, Furthermore, this cable fixing tool was attached to the target object with another binding band (for example, refer patent document 2).

特開２００３−１２９７４７号公報（第１図）JP 2003-129747 A (FIG. 1) 特開２００１−３２０８１９号公報（第６図）JP 2001-320819 A (FIG. 6)

ところが、上述したように、特許文献１のケーブル固定具は、ケーブルの外側が柔軟なアウター部材で外囲されているため、ケーブルを締結部材で直接締め付けるとアウター部材が潰れ、これにより内部のインナー部材が圧迫され、インナー部材の摺動抵抗が増大する原因となっていた。
特許文献２に記載のケーブル固定具を使用した場合であっても、ケーブルをケーブル固定具に締結部材で直接締め付けるため、アウター部材が潰れる場合があった。また、複数の締結部材によってケーブルを締め付ける場合には、アウター部材が変形するとケーブルの締結力にばらつきが生じるため、ケーブルを安定して固定することが困難であった。 However, as described above, in the cable fixing device of Patent Document 1, since the outer side of the cable is surrounded by a flexible outer member, when the cable is directly tightened with the fastening member, the outer member is crushed. The member was pressed, causing the sliding resistance of the inner member to increase.
Even when the cable fixture described in Patent Document 2 is used, the outer member may be crushed because the cable is directly fastened to the cable fixture with a fastening member. Further, when the cable is fastened by a plurality of fastening members, if the outer member is deformed, the fastening force of the cable varies, so that it is difficult to stably fix the cable.

従って、本発明は、上記問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、締結部材の締め付けによってケーブルが潰れることを防止し、ケーブルを確実に対象物に固定することが可能な固定補助具を提供することを目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a fixing aid that can prevent a cable from being crushed by tightening a fastening member and can reliably fix the cable to an object. For the purpose.

本発明に係る固定補助具は、締結部材を用いて線状部材を固定対象物に取り付ける際に用いる固定補助具であって、その特徴構成は、保持すべき前記線状部材を前記固定補助具に取り付ける第１取付部と、前記固定補助具を前記固定対象物に装着すべく締結部材を取り付ける第２取付部とを備えており、前記第１取付部の形成箇所が、前記固定補助具を前記固定対象物に締結固定したとき、前記第２取付部から前記固定対象物に当接する部位に至る締結力の伝達経路と異なる位置に設けた点にある。   The fixing auxiliary tool according to the present invention is a fixing auxiliary tool that is used when a linear member is attached to an object to be fixed using a fastening member, and the feature of the fixing auxiliary tool is that the linear member to be held is the fixing auxiliary tool. And a second attachment part for attaching a fastening member to attach the fixing aid to the object to be fixed, and a place where the first attachment part is formed is provided with the fixing aid. When fastened and fixed to the fixed object, it is provided at a position different from the transmission path of the fastening force from the second mounting portion to the portion that contacts the fixed object.

本構成の固定補助具においては、締結部材の力の伝達経路とは異なる部位に第１取付部を形成することで、前記線状部材が変形し易い部材で構成してある場合などでも、締結部材を締結したときに、線状部材の断面形状が変形することを防止することができる。例えば、線状部材がアウター部材とインナー部材とで構成される操作ケーブルなどの場合、アウターケーブルを変形させないことで、当該操作ケーブルの機能を損なわずに確実な取り付けを行なうことができる。   In the fixing auxiliary tool of this configuration, the first mounting portion is formed at a site different from the force transmission path of the fastening member, so that the linear member can be fastened even when it is configured with a member that is easily deformed. When the member is fastened, it is possible to prevent the cross-sectional shape of the linear member from being deformed. For example, in the case of an operation cable or the like in which the linear member is composed of an outer member and an inner member, the outer cable is not deformed, so that reliable attachment can be performed without impairing the function of the operation cable.

本発明の固定補助具では、前記固定対象物の一部形状に適合させた位置固定部を備えることも可能である。   In the fixing auxiliary tool of the present invention, it is possible to provide a position fixing unit adapted to the partial shape of the fixed object.

締結部材によって線状部材を取り付ける場合、取付対象物の表面形状としては様々な形状を取り得る。また、取付部位も、静的な部位であったり、常に振動を発生させるような部位など、各種の部位が想定される。
そこで、本構成の固定補助具においては、取付対象物の表面形状に適合させた形状を設けることで、固定補助具の取付状態を安定なものにすることができる。 When attaching a linear member by a fastening member, various shapes can be taken as the surface shape of an attachment target. Also, various parts are assumed such as a static part or a part that always generates vibration.
Therefore, in the fixing auxiliary tool of this configuration, the mounting state of the fixing auxiliary tool can be made stable by providing a shape adapted to the surface shape of the object to be attached.

本発明の固定補助具では、前記締結部材の締め付けにより、前記固定補助具のうち少なくとも前記固定対象物に当接する部位の近傍が弾性変形するように構成することも可能である。   The fixing aid of the present invention can be configured such that at least a portion of the fixing aid that is in contact with the fixed object is elastically deformed by tightening the fastening member.

例えば、線状部材が各種の操作ケーブルのような場合には、固定対象物に対する取り付け時において確実に取り付け得ることが必要である上に、その後の継続的な使用に際しても取り付け状態が維持できることが重要である。
そこで、本構成の固定補助具を、前記固定対象物に当接する部位の近傍が弾性変形するものとすれば、仮に締結部材が伸びて、その締結力が低下しそうな場合でも、当該弾性力によって、前記締結部材の機能低下を補うことができる。この結果、線状部材の安定な固定状態をより長期にわたって維持することができる。 For example, when the linear member is a variety of operation cables, it is necessary that the linear member can be securely attached at the time of attachment to the fixed object, and the attached state can be maintained during subsequent continuous use. is important.
Therefore, if the fixing aid of this configuration is assumed to be elastically deformed in the vicinity of the portion that comes into contact with the fixed object, even if the fastening member is extended and its fastening force is likely to decrease, , The functional deterioration of the fastening member can be compensated. As a result, the stable fixed state of the linear member can be maintained for a longer period.

本発明の固定補助具では、前記締結部材の長手方向に沿って凹凸部を繰り返し形成してあり、前記第２取付部に、前記凹凸部に対する係合部を備えることも可能である。   In the fixing auxiliary tool of the present invention, the uneven portion is repeatedly formed along the longitudinal direction of the fastening member, and the second mounting portion can include an engaging portion for the uneven portion.

前記締結部材の種類によっては、締結部材自身に凹凸形状など各種の形状が備わっている。例えば、当該形状は、締結部材の締結状態を維持して締結力を持続するため等に設けられている。
そこで、本構成の固定補助具によれば、当該凹凸形状を利用して、締結部材に対する固定補助具の移動を阻止することができる。この結果、例えば、固定対象物の表面形状によっては、当該固定補助具を取り付けた後、固定対象物に対する固定補助具の位置が変化し易い場合でも、少なくとも固定補助具と締結部材との相対移動を阻止することができる。この結果、固定対象物に対する固定補助具の相対移動を効果的に阻止することができる。 Depending on the type of the fastening member, the fastening member itself has various shapes such as an uneven shape. For example, the shape is provided for maintaining the fastening state of the fastening member and maintaining the fastening force.
Therefore, according to the fixing auxiliary tool of this configuration, the movement of the fixing auxiliary tool with respect to the fastening member can be prevented using the uneven shape. As a result, for example, depending on the surface shape of the fixed object, even if the position of the fixing auxiliary tool with respect to the fixing object is likely to change after the fixing auxiliary tool is attached, at least relative movement between the fixing auxiliary tool and the fastening member. Can be prevented. As a result, the relative movement of the fixing assisting tool with respect to the fixing object can be effectively prevented.

本発明の固定補助具では、前記固定対象物に対して接着性を有する樹脂材料で構成することも可能である。   In the fixing auxiliary tool of the present invention, it is also possible to configure with a resin material having adhesiveness to the fixing object.

本構成の固定補助具においては、固定補助具の材質を固定対象物に対して接着性を有する樹脂材料で構成してあれば、当該固定補助具を固定対象物に固定する際に両者の固定度合いを向上させることができる。
この接着力は、締結時に直ちに接着力が得られないようなものであっても、締結力を付与したのち一定期間が経過することで、加圧力によって接着効果が生じるものや、使用時の熱変化によって接着効果が生じるものであれば良い。
このような固定補助具を用いることで、固定対象物に対する固定効果をさらに向上させることができる。 In the fixing auxiliary tool of this configuration, if the material of the fixing auxiliary tool is made of a resin material having adhesiveness to the fixed object, the fixing auxiliary tool is fixed when the fixing auxiliary tool is fixed to the fixed object. The degree can be improved.
Even if this adhesive force is such that the adhesive force cannot be obtained immediately at the time of fastening, after a certain period of time has passed since the fastening force was applied, the adhesive effect is produced by the applied pressure, or the heat during use Any adhesive may be used as long as the change produces an adhesive effect.
By using such a fixing aid, the fixing effect on the fixed object can be further improved.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。なお、本発明は以下の実施の形態および図面に記載される構成に限定されるものではない。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, this invention is not limited to the structure described in the following embodiment and drawing.

［第１実施形態］
図１は、本発明の第１実施形態の固定補助具１００を用いて、ケーブル２０を固定対象物３０に取り付けている状態を示す側面図である。図２には、図１の固定補助具１００の一部断面図を示す。図３は、この固定補助具１００の斜視図である。 [First Embodiment]
FIG. 1 is a side view showing a state in which a cable 20 is attached to a fixed object 30 using the fixing auxiliary tool 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 shows a partial cross-sectional view of the fixing aid 100 of FIG. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the fixing auxiliary tool 100.

この固定補助具１００は、締結部材（例えば、トーマスアンドベッツインターナショナルインク社製のタイラップ、タイトン社製のインシュロックなど）１０を用いて線状部材（例えば、ケーブル）２０を固定対象物（例えば、モータのヨーク部）３０に取り付ける際に使用するものである。   The fixing aid 100 uses a fastening member (for example, a tie wrap manufactured by Thomas and Bets International Inc., an insulation lock manufactured by Tighton Co., Ltd.) 10 to fix a linear member (for example, a cable) 20 to an object to be fixed (for example, a motor). (Yoke portion) 30 is used when attached to the yoke portion.

固定補助具１００は、保持すべき線状部材２０を固定補助具１００に取り付ける第１取付部２と、固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に装着すべく締結部材１０を取り付ける第２取付部３とを備えている。第１取付部２は、例えば、線状部材２０を挿入するための第１挿入孔１２とすることができる。第２取付部３は、例えば、締結部材１０を挿入するための第２挿入孔１３とすることができる。この場合、第１挿入孔１２および第２挿入孔１３は、それぞれ、線状部材２０および締結部材１０をスムーズに挿入することが可能であるとともに、挿入した線状部材２０および締結部材１０が大きくがたつかないような適切なサイズおよび形状に形成される。固定補助具１００は、一体物の素材から削り出して作製してもよいし、金型を用いたモールド成形により作製してもよい。   The fixing assisting tool 100 includes a first mounting part 2 for attaching the linear member 20 to be held to the fixing assisting tool 100, and a second attaching part 3 for attaching the fastening member 10 to attach the fixing assisting tool 100 to the fixed object 30. And. The 1st attachment part 2 can be used as the 1st insertion hole 12 for inserting the linear member 20, for example. The 2nd attachment part 3 can be made into the 2nd insertion hole 13 for inserting the fastening member 10, for example. In this case, the first insertion hole 12 and the second insertion hole 13 can smoothly insert the linear member 20 and the fastening member 10, respectively, and the inserted linear member 20 and the fastening member 10 are large. It is formed in an appropriate size and shape so as not to rattle. The fixing assisting tool 100 may be manufactured by cutting out from a single material, or may be manufactured by molding using a mold.

第１取付部２の形成箇所は、固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に締結固定したとき、第２取付部３から固定対象物３０に当接する部位（図３における当接面１）に至る締結力の伝達経路と異なる位置に設けられる。具体的には、例えば、図２に最もよく示されるように、固定対象物３０の側から見て、線状部材２０が取り付けられる第１取付部２を、締結部材１０が取り付けられる第２取付部３の外側に設けることが好ましい。このように第１取付部２および第２取付部３を形成すると、締結部材１０を締結したときに、当該締結力は線状部材２０に伝達されない。このため、線状部材２０が変形し易い部材で構成してある場合などでも、締結部材を締結したときに、線状部材２０の断面形状が変形することを防止することができる。例えば、線状部材２０がアウター部材とインナー部材とで構成される操作ケーブルなどの場合、アウター部材を変形させないことで、当該操作ケーブルの機能を損なわずに確実な取り付けを行なうことができる。   The location where the first attachment portion 2 is formed extends from the second attachment portion 3 to a portion (abutment surface 1 in FIG. 3) that contacts the fixed object 30 when the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is fastened and fixed to the fixed object 30. It is provided at a position different from the transmission path of the fastening force. Specifically, for example, as best shown in FIG. 2, when viewed from the fixed object 30 side, the first mounting portion 2 to which the linear member 20 is mounted is replaced with the second mounting to which the fastening member 10 is mounted. It is preferable to be provided outside the portion 3. When the first attachment portion 2 and the second attachment portion 3 are formed in this manner, the fastening force is not transmitted to the linear member 20 when the fastening member 10 is fastened. For this reason, even when the linear member 20 is comprised with the member which is easy to deform | transform, when the fastening member is fastened, it can prevent that the cross-sectional shape of the linear member 20 deform | transforms. For example, in the case of an operation cable or the like in which the linear member 20 is composed of an outer member and an inner member, the outer member is not deformed, so that reliable attachment can be performed without impairing the function of the operation cable.

なお、固定補助具１００の当接面１は、固定する対象物３０の表面形状に適合するように、適宜曲面状に加工したり、あるいは多面状に形成したりすることも可能である。また、締結部材１０を締め付けた後、固定補助具１００が位置ずれを起こしたり、固定対象物３０の表面を滑動したりしないように、例えば、図１０に示すように、当接面１に複数の長手形状突起物からなる滑り止め４を設けることも可能である。   In addition, the contact surface 1 of the fixing assisting tool 100 can be appropriately processed into a curved surface shape or formed into a multi-surface shape so as to match the surface shape of the object 30 to be fixed. In addition, after the fastening member 10 is tightened, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, a plurality of fixing aids 100 may be placed on the contact surface 1 so that the fixing auxiliary tool 100 does not shift in position and does not slide on the surface of the fixing object 30. It is also possible to provide a non-slip 4 made of a long protrusion.

また、固定補助具１００に複数の締結部材１０を取り付けることができるように、第２取付部３を複数の挿入孔（図示せず）として形成することも可能である。このように構成することで、固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に対して、より強力に取り付けることが可能になる。   Moreover, it is also possible to form the 2nd attaching part 3 as a some insertion hole (not shown) so that the some fastening member 10 can be attached to the fixing auxiliary tool 100. FIG. By comprising in this way, it becomes possible to attach the fixing auxiliary tool 100 more strongly with respect to the fixing target object 30.

［第２実施形態］
図４は、本発明の第２実施形態の固定補助具１００を用いて、ケーブル２０を固定対象物３０に取り付けている様子を示す一部断面図である。図５（ａ）は、この固定補助具１００の斜視図である。また、図５（ｂ）は、この固定補助具１００の変形例の斜視図である。 [Second Embodiment]
FIG. 4 is a partial cross-sectional view showing a state in which the cable 20 is attached to the fixed object 30 using the fixing auxiliary tool 100 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5A is a perspective view of the fixing assisting tool 100. FIG. 5B is a perspective view of a modified example of the fixing assisting tool 100.

当該固定補助具１００は、固定対象物３０の一部形状に適合させた位置固定部５を備えること以外は第１実施形態と同様の構成である。   The fixing assisting tool 100 has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment except that the fixing assisting tool 100 includes the position fixing unit 5 adapted to the partial shape of the fixing object 30.

締結部材１０によって線状部材２０を取り付ける場合、固定対象物３０などの取付対象物の表面形状としては様々な形状を取り得る。また、取付部位も、静的な部位であったり、常に振動を発生させるような部位など、各種の部位が想定される。そこで、取付対象物の表面形状に適合させた形状を有する位置固定部５を設けることで、固定補助具１００の取付状態を安定なものにすることができる。この位置固定部５は、例えば、図５（ａ）に最もよく示されるように、当接面１の一端を延長して形成する。この場合、位置固定部５は、図４に示すように、固定対象物３０の隅部分に適合させることができるので、より安定した固定補助具１００の取り付けが可能となる。   When the linear member 20 is attached by the fastening member 10, various shapes can be used as the surface shape of the attachment object such as the fixed object 30. Also, various parts are assumed such as a static part or a part that always generates vibration. Therefore, by providing the position fixing portion 5 having a shape adapted to the surface shape of the object to be attached, the attachment state of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 can be stabilized. For example, the position fixing portion 5 is formed by extending one end of the contact surface 1 as best shown in FIG. In this case, as shown in FIG. 4, the position fixing unit 5 can be adapted to the corner portion of the fixed object 30, so that the fixing auxiliary tool 100 can be more stably attached.

なお、図５（ａ）に示す固定補助具１００の位置固定部５には、締結部材１０が通る部分に切欠き部８を設けている。この切欠き部８は、締結部材１０によって固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に締め付けた場合に、締結部材１０と固定対象物３０との間に隙間ができないようにするとともに、固定補助具１００の表面から締結部材１０が過度に突出するのを防止するためのものである。しかし、このような切欠き部８を設けずに、位置固定部５の上から締結部材１０を締め付ける構成とすることも勿論可能である。また、図示しないが、位置固定部５は、当接面１の両端から延長して形成したものとすることも勿論可能である。この場合、固定補助具１００と固定対象物３０との接触面積を大きくすることができるので、固定対象物３０の表面形状に当接面１および位置固定部５の形状を適合させることにより、固定補助具１００をさらに安定して取り付けることが可能となる。
なお、図５（ａ）に示す固定補助具１００では、当接面１の一端に位置固定部５を形成しているが、図５（ｂ）に示す固定補助具１００のように、当接面１の両端に位置固定部５を形成することも可能である。この場合の各位置固定部５も、取付対象物の表面形状に適合させた形状を有している。 In addition, the position fixing | fixed part 5 of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 shown to Fig.5 (a) is provided with the notch part 8 in the part through which the fastening member 10 passes. The notch 8 prevents a gap between the fastening member 10 and the fixed object 30 when the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is fastened to the fixed object 30 by the fastening member 10, and the fixing auxiliary tool 100. This is for preventing the fastening member 10 from excessively protruding from the surface of the wire. However, it is of course possible to employ a configuration in which the fastening member 10 is fastened from above the position fixing portion 5 without providing such a notch portion 8. Further, although not shown, it is of course possible to form the position fixing portion 5 extending from both ends of the contact surface 1. In this case, the contact area between the fixing auxiliary tool 100 and the fixed object 30 can be increased. The auxiliary tool 100 can be attached more stably.
5A, the position fixing portion 5 is formed at one end of the abutting surface 1. However, like the fixing assisting device 100 shown in FIG. It is also possible to form the position fixing portions 5 at both ends of the surface 1. Each position fixing portion 5 in this case also has a shape adapted to the surface shape of the attachment object.

［第３実施形態］
図６は、本発明の第３実施形態の固定補助具１００を示す模式図である。ここで、図６（ａ）は固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に取り付ける前の状態を示す模式図であり、図６（ｂ）は固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に取り付けた後の状態を示す模式図である。 [Third Embodiment]
FIG. 6 is a schematic view showing a fixing aid 100 according to the third embodiment of the present invention. Here, FIG. 6A is a schematic diagram illustrating a state before the fixing assisting tool 100 is attached to the fixed object 30, and FIG. 6B is a view after the fixing assisting tool 100 is attached to the fixing object 30. It is a schematic diagram which shows a state.

第３実施形態の固定補助具１００は、締結部材１０の締め付けにより固定補助具１００のうち少なくとも固定対象物３０に当接する部位、すなわち当接面１の近傍が弾性変形するように構成したこと以外は第１実施形態と同様の構成とすることができる。また、この第３実施形態の固定補助具１００では、当接面１の曲率を固定対象物３０の取付面の曲率よりも小さくしている。   The fixing auxiliary tool 100 of the third embodiment is configured such that at least a part of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 that contacts the fixing object 30, that is, the vicinity of the contact surface 1 is elastically deformed by tightening the fastening member 10. Can have the same configuration as in the first embodiment. Further, in the fixing auxiliary tool 100 of the third embodiment, the curvature of the contact surface 1 is made smaller than the curvature of the mounting surface of the fixed object 30.

例えば、線状部材２０が各種の操作ケーブルのような場合には、固定対象物３０などの固定対象物に対する取付け時において確実に取り付け得ることが必要である上に、その後の継続的な使用に際しても取り付け状態が維持できることが重要である。そこで、このような目的を達成する手段として、固定補助具１００の固定対象物３０に当接する部位、すなわち当接面１の近傍を弾性変形するように構成することが有効である。   For example, in the case where the linear member 20 is a variety of operation cables, it is necessary that the linear member 20 can be securely attached to a fixed object such as the fixed object 30 and the subsequent continuous use. It is important that the attachment state can be maintained. Therefore, as a means for achieving such an object, it is effective to configure the portion of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 that contacts the fixed object 30, that is, the vicinity of the contact surface 1 to be elastically deformed.

具体的には、例えば、図６（ａ）に示すように、固定補助具１００の当接面１の曲率が固定対象物３０の取付面の曲率より小さくなるようにしておく。ここで、締結部材１０を締め付けて固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に取り付けるとき、当接面１の近傍が弾性変形可能である場合、固定補助具１００は、図６（ｂ）のように、固定対象物３０の表面形状に隙間なく適合することができる。このような状態においては、仮に締結部材１０が伸びて、その締結力が低下しそうな場合でも、固定補助具１００の弾性力（すなわち、図６（ｂ）中の矢印で示した復元力）によって締結部材１０に張力が与えられるので、締結部材１０の機能低下を補って固定補助具１００と固定対象物３０との当接状態が維持される。この結果、線状部材２０の安定な固定状態をより長期にわたって維持することができる。   Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 6A, the curvature of the contact surface 1 of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is made smaller than the curvature of the mounting surface of the fixed object 30. Here, when the fastening member 10 is fastened and the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is attached to the fixing object 30, when the vicinity of the contact surface 1 is elastically deformable, the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is as shown in FIG. The surface shape of the fixed object 30 can be adapted without a gap. In such a state, even if the fastening member 10 is stretched and the fastening force is likely to be reduced, the elastic force of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 (that is, the restoring force indicated by the arrow in FIG. 6B). Since tension is applied to the fastening member 10, the contact state between the fixing assisting tool 100 and the fixed object 30 is maintained by compensating for a decrease in the function of the fastening member 10. As a result, the stable fixed state of the linear member 20 can be maintained over a longer period.

［第４実施形態］
図７は、本発明の第４実施形態の固定補助具１００を示す模式図である。ここで、図７（ａ）は固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に取り付ける前の状態を示す模式図であり、図７（ｂ）は固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に取り付けた後の状態を示す模式図である。 [Fourth Embodiment]
FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram showing a fixation assisting tool 100 according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. Here, FIG. 7A is a schematic diagram illustrating a state before the fixing assisting tool 100 is attached to the fixed object 30, and FIG. 7B is a view after the fixing assisting tool 100 is attached to the fixing object 30. It is a schematic diagram which shows a state.

第４実施形態の固定補助具１００は、締結部材１０の締め付けにより固定補助具１００のうち少なくとも固定対象物３０に当接する部位、すなわち当接面１の近傍が弾性変形するように構成したこと以外は第１実施形態と同様の構成とすることができる。また、この第４実施形態の固定補助具１００では、当接面１の曲率を固定対象物３０の取付面の曲率よりも大きくしている。   The fixing auxiliary tool 100 according to the fourth embodiment is configured such that at least a portion of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 that comes into contact with the fixed object 30 by tightening the fastening member 10, that is, the vicinity of the contact surface 1 is elastically deformed. Can have the same configuration as in the first embodiment. Further, in the fixing auxiliary tool 100 of the fourth embodiment, the curvature of the contact surface 1 is made larger than the curvature of the mounting surface of the fixed object 30.

この第４実施形態の固定補助具１００は、上記の第３実施形態と同じ原理で締結部材１０の締結力の低下を防止することができる。具体的には、例えば、図７（ａ）に示すように、固定補助具１００の当接面１の曲率が固定対象物３０の取付面の曲率より大きくなるようにしておく。ここで、締結部材１０を締め付けて固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に取り付けるとき、当接面１の近傍が弾性変形可能である場合、固定補助具１００は、図７（ｂ）のように、固定対象物３０の表面形状に隙間なく適合することができる。このような状態においては、仮に締結部材１０の締結力の低下が起こり得るような場合でも、固定補助具１００の弾性力（すなわち、図７（ｂ）中の矢印で示した復元力）によって締結部材１０に張力が与えられるので、締結部材１０の機能低下を補って固定補助具１００と固定対象物３０との当接状態が維持される。この結果、線状部材２０の固定状態をより長期にわたって維持することができる。   The fixing assisting tool 100 according to the fourth embodiment can prevent a decrease in the fastening force of the fastening member 10 based on the same principle as that of the third embodiment. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 7A, the curvature of the contact surface 1 of the fixing assisting tool 100 is set to be larger than the curvature of the mounting surface of the fixed object 30. Here, when the fastening member 10 is fastened and the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is attached to the fixed object 30, when the vicinity of the contact surface 1 is elastically deformable, the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is as shown in FIG. The surface shape of the fixed object 30 can be adapted without a gap. In such a state, even if the fastening force of the fastening member 10 may decrease, the fastening force is fastened by the elastic force of the fixing assisting tool 100 (that is, the restoring force indicated by the arrow in FIG. 7B). Since tension is applied to the member 10, the contact state between the fixing assisting tool 100 and the fixed object 30 is maintained by compensating for the lowering of the function of the fastening member 10. As a result, the fixed state of the linear member 20 can be maintained for a longer period.

［第５実施形態］
図８は、本発明の第５実施形態の固定補助具１００を示す模式図である。第５実施形態の固定補助具１００は、締結部材１０の長手方向に沿って繰り返し形成した凹凸部に係合する係合部７を第２取付部３に備えたこと以外は第１実施形態と同様の構成である。具体的には、第２取付部３として構成した第２挿入孔１３の双方の出口部であって、前記当接面１の側に係合部７を突出形成する。 [Fifth Embodiment]
FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram showing a fixing aid 100 according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention. The fixing auxiliary tool 100 of the fifth embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment except that the second mounting portion 3 includes the engaging portion 7 that engages with the uneven portion that is repeatedly formed along the longitudinal direction of the fastening member 10. It is the same composition. Specifically, the engaging portion 7 is formed so as to protrude from both of the outlet portions of the second insertion hole 13 configured as the second attachment portion 3 and on the contact surface 1 side.

前記タイラップ等の締結部材１０は、通常、係止機能をもつ凹凸部を締結部材１０自身に備えている。締結部材１０を第２挿入孔１３に通して締め付けると、締結部材１０は、締まる方向に係合部７を容易に乗り越え、締結部材１０の張力が高まる。所定の張力に達した状態で締め付けをやめ、固定対象物３０に対して固定補助具１００が固定される。この状態で、締結部材１０は、その凹凸部によって固定対象物３０に対して確実に位置固定される。そして、固定補助具１００の係合部７が締結部材１０の凹凸部に係合するから、固定対象物３０に対して固定補助具１００が強固に固定される。この結果、例えば、固定対象物３０の表面形状によっては、当該固定補助具１００を取り付けた後、固定対象物３０に対する固定補助具１００の位置が変化し易い場合でも、固定対象物３０に対して締結部材１０さえ固定することができれば、固定補助具１００の移動をも阻止することができる。   The fastening member 10 such as the tie wrap usually includes an uneven portion having a locking function in the fastening member 10 itself. When the fastening member 10 is tightened through the second insertion hole 13, the fastening member 10 easily gets over the engaging portion 7 in the tightening direction, and the tension of the fastening member 10 increases. The tightening is stopped in a state where the predetermined tension is reached, and the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is fixed to the fixing object 30. In this state, the fastening member 10 is reliably fixed to the fixed object 30 by the uneven portion. And since the engaging part 7 of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 engages with the concavo-convex part of the fastening member 10, the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is firmly fixed to the fixed object 30. As a result, for example, depending on the surface shape of the fixed object 30, even if the position of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 with respect to the fixed object 30 is likely to change after the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is attached, If even the fastening member 10 can be fixed, the movement of the fixing aid 100 can be prevented.

尚、本実施形態では、第２取付部３に対して係合部７を二箇所設けたが、何れか一方に設けるものであっても良い。勿論、複数箇所設けておけば、固定補助具１００の配置方向に拘らず、締結部材１０を何れの方向に巻き付けても良く、締結時の作業性が向上する。   In the present embodiment, two engaging portions 7 are provided with respect to the second attachment portion 3, but may be provided on either one. Of course, if a plurality of locations are provided, the fastening member 10 may be wound in any direction regardless of the arrangement direction of the fixing assisting tool 100, and workability at the time of fastening is improved.

また、この第５実施形態のように、係合部７を設けることで、以下のように固定補助具１００を締結することができる。
図９（ａ）は、固定対象物３０の平坦面に固定補助具１００を取り付ける初期状態を示し、図９（ｂ）は、その後、固定補助具１００を強固に固定した最終状態を示す。 Further, by providing the engaging portion 7 as in the fifth embodiment, the fixing assisting tool 100 can be fastened as follows.
FIG. 9A shows an initial state in which the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is attached to the flat surface of the fixed object 30, and FIG. 9B shows a final state in which the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is firmly fixed thereafter.

図９（ａ）では、固定対象物３０の平坦面の略中央に固定補助具１００を位置させている。この状態で、締結部材１０が所定の張力となるまで締め付ける。このとき、双方の係合部７と夫々が近接する固定対象物３０の角部との距離ｄ１およびｄ２は略等しい。
この状態から、固定補助具１００を、図９（ｂ）の右側、即ち、締結部材１０の凹凸部が係合部７を乗り越え易い方向に固定補助具１００をスライドさせる。この結果、上記二箇所の距離は夫々ｄ３・ｄ４となる。
これら（ａ）（ｂ）の状態を比較すると、常に ｄ３＋ｄ４＞ｄ１＋ｄ２ となる。つまり、第１段階の締結を終えた（ａ）の状態から、締結部材１０の必要長さが長い（ｂ）の状態に移行させることで、締結部材１０の張力をさらに増加させることができる。このように、固定補助具１００を楔のように使用することで、固定対象物３０の表面が広い場合であっても、固定補助具１００を強固に固定することができる。 In FIG. 9A, the fixing assisting tool 100 is positioned substantially at the center of the flat surface of the fixed object 30. In this state, the fastening member 10 is tightened until a predetermined tension is reached. At this time, the distances d1 and d2 between the engaging portions 7 and the corner portions of the fixed object 30 that are close to each other are substantially equal.
From this state, the fixing assisting tool 100 is slid in the right side of FIG. 9B, that is, in a direction in which the uneven portion of the fastening member 10 easily gets over the engaging portion 7. As a result, the distance between the two locations is d3 and d4, respectively.
When these states (a) and (b) are compared, d3 + d4> d1 + d2 is always satisfied. That is, the tension | tensile_strength of the fastening member 10 can further be increased by making it transfer from the state of (a) which finished the fastening of the 1st step to the state of (b) where the required length of the fastening member 10 is long. As described above, by using the fixing auxiliary tool 100 like a wedge, the fixing auxiliary tool 100 can be firmly fixed even when the surface of the fixing object 30 is wide.

［第６実施形態］
第６実施形態は、固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に対して接着性を有する樹脂材料で構成したものであり、これ以外の構成は、第１実施形態と同様の構成とすることができる。 [Sixth Embodiment]
In the sixth embodiment, the fixing assisting tool 100 is made of a resin material having adhesiveness to the fixing object 30, and other configurations can be the same as those of the first embodiment. .

本実施形態において使用可能な樹脂材料には、ポリプロピレン、ポリフッ化ビニリデンおよびポリビニルアセテート等のガラス転移温度が比較的低い樹脂、イソブチレンゴム、ネオプレンゴム、ブタジエンゴムおよび天然ゴム等のエラストマー、エポキシ樹脂、フェノール樹脂、ポリウレタン、メラミン樹脂およびユリア樹脂等の熱硬化性樹脂などが挙げられる。   Resin materials that can be used in this embodiment include resins having a relatively low glass transition temperature such as polypropylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, and polyvinyl acetate, elastomers such as isobutylene rubber, neoprene rubber, butadiene rubber, and natural rubber, epoxy resins, phenols Examples thereof include thermosetting resins such as resins, polyurethanes, melamine resins and urea resins.

本実施形態のように、固定補助具１００の材質を固定対象物３０に対して接着性を有する樹脂材料で構成してあれば、固定補助具１００を固定対象物３０に固定する際に両者の固定度合いを向上させることができる。   If the material of the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is made of a resin material having adhesiveness to the fixing object 30 as in the present embodiment, when the fixing auxiliary tool 100 is fixed to the fixing object 30, The degree of fixation can be improved.

この接着力は、締結時に直ちに接着力が得られないようなものであっても、締結力を付与したのち一定期間が経過することで、加圧力によって接着効果が生じるものや、使用時の熱変化によって接着効果が生じるものであれば良い。   Even if this adhesive force is such that the adhesive force cannot be obtained immediately at the time of fastening, after a certain period of time has passed since the fastening force was applied, the adhesive effect is produced by the applied pressure, or the heat during use Any adhesive may be used as long as the change produces an adhesive effect.

このような固定補助具１００を用いることで、固定対象物３０に対する固定効果をさらに向上させることができる。   By using such a fixing aid 100, the fixing effect with respect to the fixed object 30 can be further improved.

本発明の固定補助具は、本明細書において説明した車両に搭載されるウィンドレギュレータ等に使用される駆動ケーブルの固定の他にも、例えば、各種の産業用機械におけるケーブル類の固定、家電機器の可動部に使用する駆動ワイヤの固定など、種々の分野において利用することが可能である。   The fixing auxiliary tool according to the present invention includes, for example, fixing cables in various industrial machines, household appliances, in addition to fixing drive cables used in a window regulator or the like mounted on a vehicle described in this specification. The present invention can be used in various fields such as fixing a drive wire used for the movable part.
