Description

本発明は、コネクタに被さりかつ電線群を横出しするコネクタカバーおよびワイヤハーネスに関する。   The present invention relates to a connector cover and a wire harness that covers a connector and extends a group of electric wires.

自動車等の車両のエンジンルーム、その他の被水領域に配索されるワイヤハーネスは、電源用と信号用とアース用の複数の電線を束ねた電線群と、この電線群の端部に接続されたコネクタと、コネクタに被さるとともに電線群のコネクタ側の端部に被さるコネクタカバーとを備えている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。   Wire harnesses that are routed in the engine room of a vehicle such as an automobile and other areas subject to water are connected to a group of wires bundled with a plurality of wires for power, signals, and ground, and the ends of the wires. And a connector cover that covers the connector and covers an end of the electric wire group on the connector side (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

しかし、特許文献１のコネクタカバーは、コネクタの接続方向とコネクタカバーから取り出す電線群の軸線方向が一致している。このコネクタカバーは、コネクタに被さるコネクタカバーからコネクタの接続方向と直交方向に電線群を横出しする横出しタイプではない。   However, in the connector cover of Patent Document 1, the connecting direction of the connector and the axial direction of the electric wire group taken out from the connector cover are the same. This connector cover is not a side-out type in which a group of electric wires is extended from a connector cover that covers the connector in a direction orthogonal to the connection direction of the connector.

一方、特許文献としての開示はないが、図６に示すように、従来の横出しタイプのコネクタカバー２０は、電線群３１に接続されるコネクタ３２に被着されるコネクタ被着部２１と、コネクタ被着部２１の一側面２１ａより筒孔２３を介して電線群３１を横出しする電線群被着部２２とを有する形態である。   On the other hand, although there is no disclosure as a patent document, as shown in FIG. 6, the conventional side-out connector cover 20 includes a connector attaching portion 21 attached to a connector 32 connected to the wire group 31, and This is a form having an electric wire group adhering portion 22 that juts out the electric wire group 31 from one side surface 21 a of the connector adhering portion 21 through the cylindrical hole 23.

特開２００５−９３０９１号公報JP 2005-93091 A

しかしながら、図６に示す横出しタイプのコネクタカバー２０は、電線群３１を横出しする筒孔２３の径がコネクタ３２の外形よりも小さいので、電線群３０とコネクタ３２とを接続した状態では、コネクタ被着部２１をコネクタ３２に被せることができなかった。   However, the laterally extending connector cover 20 shown in FIG. 6 has a diameter of the cylindrical hole 23 that laterally extends the wire group 31 is smaller than the outer shape of the connector 32, so that in a state where the wire group 30 and the connector 32 are connected, The connector attaching portion 21 could not be covered on the connector 32.

このため、ワイヤハーネスの製作における結束作業では、図板上にコネクタ３２を固定し、該コネクタ３２の背面の接続孔に複数の電線３１ａの各端部に付設された接続ピン３３を差し込み、複数の電線３１ａを仮結束して電線群３１とすることを、図示しない複数のコネクタについて行い、複数の電線群を仮結束して幹線とする仮結束作業を行う。続いて、図板上に固定されたコネクタ３２から接続ピン３３を抜いて、接続ピン３３を図６に示す横出しタイプのコネクタカバー２０の筒孔２３に通し、さらにコネクタ被着部２１の開口より大きく引き出した状態にしてから、コネクタ３２の背面の接続孔に接続ピン３３を差し込み、コネクタ被着部２１をコネクタ３２に被さるように移動し、その後に各電線３１ａの緊張箇所と余長が大きすぎる箇所を解消するように配索状況を確認して本結束する作業を行う。   For this reason, in the binding work in the production of the wire harness, the connector 32 is fixed on the drawing board, and the connection pins 33 attached to the respective end portions of the plurality of electric wires 31a are inserted into the connection holes on the back surface of the connector 32. The electric wires 31a are temporarily bundled into the electric wire group 31 for a plurality of connectors (not shown), and a temporary bundling operation for temporarily bundling the plurality of electric wire groups into a trunk line is performed. Subsequently, the connection pin 33 is removed from the connector 32 fixed on the drawing board, the connection pin 33 is passed through the cylindrical hole 23 of the laterally extending type connector cover 20 shown in FIG. After making it draw out more, the connection pin 33 is inserted into the connection hole on the back surface of the connector 32 and moved so that the connector attachment portion 21 is covered with the connector 32. Check the status of the cable so that the part that is too large is eliminated, and perform the main binding.

したがって、仮結束作業後、本結束作業における、コネクタ被着部２１をコネクタ３２に被せるまでの作業工数が多く、作業性が頗る悪いという問題があった。また、接続ピン３３を一本一本コネクタカバー２０の筒孔２３に通す作業に手間が掛かり、時には接続ピン３３を曲げてしまい、コネクタ３２への接続が難しくなる虞れもあった。   Therefore, there is a problem that after the temporary bundling work, the number of work steps until the connector attaching portion 21 is put on the connector 32 in the main bundling work is large, and workability is poor. Further, it takes time and labor to pass the connection pins 33 one by one through the tube hole 23 of the connector cover 20, and sometimes the connection pins 33 are bent, which may make connection to the connector 32 difficult.

本発明は、上述のような課題を解決するためになされたもので、電線群とコネクタとが接続された状態で、コネクタを電線群被着部の筒孔を通してコネクタ被着部に収容することができて、コネクタと接続された電線群を電線群被着部の筒孔より横出し状態とすることができ、作業効率を高めることができるコネクタカバーおよびワイヤハーネスを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention was made to solve the above-described problems, and in a state where the wire group and the connector are connected, the connector is accommodated in the connector attaching portion through the cylindrical hole of the wire group attaching portion. An object of the present invention is to provide a connector cover and a wire harness capable of improving the working efficiency by allowing the electric wire group connected to the connector to be laterally extended from the tube hole of the electric wire group attaching portion. .

本発明に係るコネクタカバーは、上記目的を達成するために、電線群に接続されるコネクタを収容する収容空間を有するとともに前記コネクタの接続側端面部に対応する開口を有し、前記コネクタに被さるコネクタ被着部と、前記コネクタ被着部の一側面部より筒孔を有する突出状態に一体成形されており、前記電線群を横出しするように前記電線群の対コネクタ近傍部分に被着される電線群被着部とを有するコネクタカバーであって、前記電線群被着部は、前記コネクタ被着部の前記開口と対応するように突出部を有するとともに、前記突出部に前記筒孔から前記突出部の突出方向に延びる１つまたは２つのスリットを有し、該スリットにより、前記コネクタ被着部の前記一側面部、前記電線群被着部および前記突出部に亘り、前記筒孔が拡開されるように構成されている。   In order to achieve the above object, a connector cover according to the present invention has an accommodating space for accommodating a connector to be connected to an electric wire group, and has an opening corresponding to a connection side end surface portion of the connector, and covers the connector. It is integrally formed in a protruding state having a cylindrical hole from one side surface portion of the connector attaching portion and the connector attaching portion, and is attached to a portion of the wire group near the pair of connectors so as to laterally protrude the wire group. A wire cover attached portion, wherein the wire group attached portion has a protruding portion corresponding to the opening of the connector attached portion, and the protruding portion extends from the cylindrical hole. One or two slits extending in the protruding direction of the protruding portion, and the cylindrical hole extends across the one side surface portion of the connector attached portion, the wire group attached portion, and the protruding portion by the slit. It is configured to be opened.

この構成により、本発明に係るコネクタカバーは、突出部をスリットにより展開して電線群被着部の筒孔を、コネクタを通せる大きさに拡開することができるので、従来とは異なり、電線群とコネクタとが接続された状態で、コネクタを電線群被着部の筒孔を通してコネクタ被着部に収容することができて、コネクタと接続された電線群を電線群被着部の筒孔より横出し状態とすることができる。   With this configuration, the connector cover according to the present invention can expand the projecting portion with a slit and expand the cylindrical hole of the wire group attached portion to a size that allows the connector to pass through. In a state where the wire group and the connector are connected, the connector can be accommodated in the connector attached portion through the tube hole of the wire group attached portion, and the wire group connected to the connector can be accommodated in the tube of the wire group attached portion. It can be set in a lateral state from the hole.

また、本発明に係るワイヤハーネスは、上記目的を達成するために、電線群と、前記電線群に接続されたコネクタと、上記構成のコネクタカバーとを有し、前記コネクタが前記コネクタカバーの筒孔を通して前記収容空間に収容されることにより、前記コネクタが前記コネクタ被着部に被着され、前記電線群が前記電線群被着部の筒孔を通して横出しされている構成である。   In order to achieve the above object, a wire harness according to the present invention includes an electric wire group, a connector connected to the electric wire group, and a connector cover having the above configuration, and the connector is a tube of the connector cover. By being accommodated in the accommodation space through a hole, the connector is attached to the connector attaching portion, and the electric wire group is laterally exposed through a cylindrical hole of the electric wire group attaching portion.

この構成により、本発明に係るワイヤハーネスは、製作時に、図板上にコネクタを固定するとともに、複数の電線の各端部の接続ピンをコネクタの対相手方コネクタ接続面と反対側面部に差し込み接続して、複数の電線を電線群として纏まるように配索し、この時点で緊張箇所と余長が大き過ぎる箇所を解消して本結束することができる。すなわち、従来では、この時点で本結束ではなく仮結束して、接続ピンをコネクタから外してコネクタカバーに通してから再度コネクタに接続し、その後に複数の電線の積層状態を確認し、緊張箇所と余長が大きすぎる箇所を解消して本結束して電線群となるように構成していた。これに対し、本発明では、電線群と接続された状態のコネクタを、該コネクタを通せるように大きく拡開した筒孔を通してコネクタ被着部の収容空間に収容することができるから、上記のように、コネクタカバーを取り付ける前に、複数の電線を、電線群として纏まるように配索した時点で緊張箇所と余長が大きすぎる箇所を解消して本結束することができ、結束工程における作業を大幅に省略することができ、作業効率を高めることができる。   With this configuration, the wire harness according to the present invention fixes the connector on the drawing board at the time of manufacture, and inserts and connects the connection pins at each end of the plurality of electric wires to the opposite side connector connection surface of the connector. Then, a plurality of electric wires can be arranged so as to be bundled as an electric wire group, and at this point, the tension portion and the portion where the surplus length is too large can be eliminated and the wires can be bound together. In other words, conventionally, at this time, instead of the actual binding, the temporary binding is performed, the connection pins are removed from the connector, passed through the connector cover, and then connected to the connector again. And the part where the extra length was too large was eliminated, and it was configured to be bundled into an electric wire group. On the other hand, in the present invention, the connector connected to the electric wire group can be accommodated in the accommodating space of the connector attaching portion through the cylindrical hole that is greatly expanded so that the connector can be inserted. Thus, before attaching the connector cover, it is possible to eliminate the tension part and the part where the extra length is too large at the time when the plurality of electric wires are arranged so as to be bundled as a group of electric wires, and to perform the main binding. Can be largely omitted, and work efficiency can be improved.

本発明によれば、電線群とコネクタとが接続された状態で、コネクタを電線群被着部の筒孔を通してコネクタ被着部に収容することができて、コネクタと接続された電線群を電線群被着部の筒孔より横出し状態とすることができ、作業効率を高めることができるコネクタカバーおよびワイヤハーネスを提供することができる。   According to the present invention, in a state where the electric wire group and the connector are connected, the connector can be accommodated in the connector attaching portion through the cylindrical hole of the electric wire group attaching portion, and the electric wire group connected to the connector can be It is possible to provide a connector cover and a wire harness that can be set in a laterally extending state from the cylindrical hole of the group attaching portion and can improve the working efficiency.

以下、本発明を実施するための形態について図面を参照して詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

［第１の実施の形態］
図１に示すように、図１の実施の形態に係るコネクタカバー１は、軟質のゴム成形体であり、コネクタ被着部２と、電線群被着部３と、突出部４と、スリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃを有している。 [First Embodiment]
As shown in FIG. 1, the connector cover 1 according to the embodiment of FIG. 1 is a soft rubber molded body, and includes a connector adherent portion 2, an electric wire group adherent portion 3, a protruding portion 4, and a slit 5a. , 5b, 5c.

図２に示すように、コネクタ被着部２は、周壁部と上面部とを逆さキャップ状に形成され、周壁部と上面部により形成される収容空間２ａが、図示しない電線群に接続される図示しないコネクタに被さるように該コネクタを収容するとともに、下面側の開口２ｂが各電線との被接続面側を露出されるように構成されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the connector attaching portion 2 is formed in an inverted cap shape with the peripheral wall portion and the upper surface portion, and the accommodation space 2 a formed by the peripheral wall portion and the upper surface portion is connected to a wire group (not shown). The connector is accommodated so as to cover a connector (not shown), and the opening 2b on the lower surface side is exposed to the surface to be connected to each electric wire.

コネクタ被着部２は、コネクタが直方体形状である場合、周壁部２ｃがコネクタの４つの側面部に密着し、かつコネクタの４つの側面部よりも丈が長い角筒状に形成されるとともに、該周壁部２ｃが上面部２ｄによって閉じられている。したがって、コネクタ被着部２は、例えば後述するコネクタ１２を収容する場合において、コネクタ１２の上側に接続された電線群１１のコネクタ近傍部分１１ａを９０度折り曲がる状態に収容する収容空間２ａを有している。   When the connector has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, the connector attaching portion 2 is formed in a rectangular tube shape in which the peripheral wall portion 2c is in close contact with the four side surface portions of the connector and is longer than the four side surface portions of the connector. The peripheral wall portion 2c is closed by the upper surface portion 2d. Therefore, the connector attaching portion 2 has an accommodation space 2a for accommodating the connector vicinity portion 11a of the wire group 11 connected to the upper side of the connector 12 in a state of being bent by 90 degrees, for example, when accommodating the connector 12 described later. doing.

さらに、コネクタ被着部２は、内面部に位置決め用突起２ｅを備えている。この位置決め用突起２ｅは、図示しないコネクタをコネクタ被着部２の収容空間２ａに収容し、かつ開口２ｂとコネクタの各電線との非接続面とが一致した状態で、コネクタの各側面部に当接し、コネクタの収容空間２ａ内での位置ずれを阻止するようになっている。   Further, the connector adherent portion 2 includes positioning protrusions 2e on the inner surface portion. The positioning protrusion 2e accommodates a connector (not shown) in the housing space 2a of the connector attaching portion 2, and the side surface portion of the connector in a state where the opening 2b and the non-connection surface of each electric wire of the connector coincide with each other. The connector abuts to prevent positional displacement of the connector in the accommodation space 2a.

電線群被着部３は、コネクタ被着部２の一側面部２ｆより横方向に突出していて、該一側面部２ｆを貫通する筒孔３ａを有する筒状に形成されている。   The electric wire group adherent portion 3 protrudes laterally from the one side surface portion 2f of the connector adherent portion 2 and is formed in a cylindrical shape having a cylindrical hole 3a penetrating the one side surface portion 2f.

突出部４は、コネクタ被着部２の一側面部２ｆおよび電線群被着部３と一体に設けられているとともに、電線群被着部３の下面部より、コネクタ被着部２の開口２ｂ側の端部に一致するように延びる板状に形成されている。   The projecting portion 4 is provided integrally with the one side surface 2 f of the connector adherent portion 2 and the wire group adherent portion 3, and the opening 2 b of the connector adherent portion 2 from the lower surface portion of the wire group adherent portion 3. It is formed in a plate shape extending so as to coincide with the end portion on the side.

図３に示すように、本実施の形態では、突出部４に、該突出部４の筒孔３ａに直交する方向の厚さを４等分する厚さとなるように、かつコネクタ被着部２の一側面部２ｆを切り開くように３つのスリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃが設けられている。３つのスリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃのうち、中央のスリット５ｂは、突出部４の下端面から筒孔３ａの手前まで切り開かれ、両側のスリット５ａ，５ｃは、筒孔３ａから突出部４の下面の手前まで切り開かれている。   As shown in FIG. 3, in the present embodiment, the protrusion 4 has a thickness that divides the thickness of the protrusion 4 in the direction perpendicular to the cylindrical hole 3a into four equal parts, and the connector attaching portion 2. Three slits 5a, 5b, 5c are provided so as to cut open one side surface portion 2f. Of the three slits 5a, 5b, 5c, the central slit 5b is cut open from the lower end surface of the projecting portion 4 to the front of the cylindrical hole 3a, and the slits 5a, 5c on both sides are opened from the cylindrical hole 3a to the lower surface of the projecting portion 4. It is opened up to the front.

したがって、突出部４を構成している蛇行状に連続する４つの薄板部４ａ，４ｂ，４ｃ，４ｄのうち、両側の２つの薄板部４ａ，４ｄは、電線群被着部３の下部およびコネクタ被着部２の一側面部２ｆに一体に連結されており、３つのスリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃにより展開されることにより、筒孔３ａの開口面積を含む大きなコネクタ導入孔６を形成することができるようになっている。コネクタカバー１は軟質のゴム成形体なので、コネクタ導入孔６を、後述するコネクタ１２を押し込むのに充分に拡開させることができる。よってコネクタカバー１は、該コネクタ１２をコネクタ被着部２の収容空間２ａ内のコネクタ１２が収容される位置まで容易に通すことができる。   Therefore, among the four thin plate portions 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d that constitute the protruding portion 4 in a meandering manner, the two thin plate portions 4a, 4d on both sides are the lower part of the wire group attached portion 3 and the connector. A large connector introduction hole 6 including the opening area of the cylindrical hole 3a can be formed by being integrally connected to one side surface portion 2f of the adherend portion 2 and being developed by the three slits 5a, 5b, 5c. It can be done. Since the connector cover 1 is a soft rubber molded body, the connector introduction hole 6 can be expanded sufficiently to push in a connector 12 described later. Therefore, the connector cover 1 can easily pass the connector 12 to a position where the connector 12 is accommodated in the accommodation space 2 a of the connector attaching portion 2.

図４は、上述した構成のコネクタカバー１を含むワイヤハーネス１００を示す。すなわち、ワイヤハーネス１００は、電線群１１と、電線群１１に接続されたコネクタ１２と、上述した構成のコネクタカバー１とを有し、コネクタ１２がコネクタカバー１に拡開されるコネクタ導入孔６を通して収容空間２ａに収容されることにより、コネクタ１２がコネクタ被着部２に被着され、電線群１１が電線群被着部３の筒孔３ａを通して横出しされている。   FIG. 4 shows a wire harness 100 including the connector cover 1 configured as described above. That is, the wire harness 100 includes a wire group 11, a connector 12 connected to the wire group 11, and the connector cover 1 having the above-described configuration, and the connector introduction hole 6 through which the connector 12 is expanded to the connector cover 1. The connector 12 is attached to the connector attaching portion 2 by being accommodated in the accommodating space 2a, and the electric wire group 11 is laterally exposed through the cylindrical hole 3a of the electric wire group attaching portion 3.

図４（ａ）に示すように、ワイヤハーネス１００は、コネクタカバー１の突出部４のスリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃにより筒孔３ａを大きく拡開してコネクタ導入孔６を形成し、電線群１１と接続されているコネクタ１２をコネクタ導入孔６を通して押し込むと、コネクタ１２をコネクタ被着部２に収容することができるとともに、スリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃを閉じて筒孔３ａを元に戻すことにより、電線群１１をコネクタカバー１の筒孔３ａから横出し状態とすることができる。   As shown in FIG. 4 (a), the wire harness 100 has a cylindrical hole 3a that is greatly expanded by the slits 5a, 5b, and 5c of the protrusion 4 of the connector cover 1 to form a connector introduction hole 6, and a wire group 11 When the connector 12 connected to is pushed through the connector introduction hole 6, the connector 12 can be accommodated in the connector attaching portion 2, and the slits 5a, 5b, 5c are closed and the tube hole 3a is returned to the original position. The electric wire group 11 can be set to a side-out state from the cylindrical hole 3 a of the connector cover 1.

コネクタカバー１は、コネクタ１２および電線群１１の対コネクタ接続部に被さり、防水機能を有する。   The connector cover 1 covers the connector-connecting portion of the connector 12 and the wire group 11 and has a waterproof function.

次に、ワイヤハーネス１００の製作工程を簡単に説明する。図示しない図板上にコネクタ１２を固定するとともに、複数の電線の各端部の接続ピンをコネクタ１２の各電線との接続面側に差し込み接続して、複数の電線を纏まるように配索し、本結束して電線群１１を構成する。ついで、電線群１１と接続されたままのコネクタ１２を図板から外すとともに、コネクタカバー１についてスリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃにより筒孔３ａをコネクタ１２を通せる大きさに拡開してコネクタ導入孔６を形成し、このコネクタ導入孔６に図板から外した電線群１１と接続されたコネクタ１２を押し込んでコネクタ被着部２の収容空間２ａに収容し、その後、拡開したコネクタ導入孔６を元の状態に戻すと、筒孔３ａが復元され、電線群被着部３が電線群１１に被さる。   Next, the manufacturing process of the wire harness 100 will be briefly described. The connector 12 is fixed on a not-shown drawing board, and the connection pins at the ends of the plurality of electric wires are inserted and connected to the connection surface side with the electric wires of the connector 12 so that the plurality of electric wires are arranged together. The electric wire group 11 is configured by bundling. Next, the connector 12 that is still connected to the wire group 11 is removed from the drawing plate, and the connector cover 1 is expanded to a size that allows the connector 12 to pass through the slit 5a, 5b, 5c, and the connector introduction hole. 6, the connector 12 connected to the wire group 11 removed from the drawing plate is pushed into the connector introduction hole 6 to be accommodated in the accommodation space 2 a of the connector adherent portion 2, and then the connector introduction hole 6 that is expanded. Is returned to its original state, the cylindrical hole 3a is restored, and the wire group attached portion 3 covers the wire group 11.

したがって、図板上で、コネクタカバー１を取り付ける前に、電線群１１とコネクタ１２とを接続し、緊張箇所と余長が大き過ぎる箇所を解消して本結束することができ、本結束後は、電線群１１と接続した状態のコネクタ１２を図板上から外して、コネクタカバー１を取り付けることができるから、冒頭で述べた従来の製作作業に比べて、作業を大幅に省略することができ、作業効率を飛躍的に高めることができる。   Therefore, before attaching the connector cover 1 on the drawing board, the electric wire group 11 and the connector 12 can be connected, and the tension portion and the excessively long portion can be eliminated and the main binding can be performed. Because the connector 12 connected to the wire group 11 can be removed from the drawing board and the connector cover 1 can be attached, the work can be largely omitted compared to the conventional manufacturing work described at the beginning. , Work efficiency can be dramatically improved.

［第２の実施形態］
図５は、本発明の第２の実施の形態に係るコネクタカバー１Ａを示している。コネクタカバー１Ａは、軟質のゴム成形体であり、コネクタ被着部２と、電線群被着部３と、突出部４Ａと、スリット５ｄを有している。コネクタカバー１Ａの、第１の実施の形態に係るコネクタカバー１との構造上の相違は、コネクタカバー１の突出部４が３つのスリット５ａ，５ｂ，５ｃによって展開されるように構成されるのに対し、コネクタカバー１Ａの突出部４Ａが、突出部４よりも肉薄で１つのスリット５ｄによって展開される２つの薄板部４ｅ，４ｆを有するように構成される点にある。 [Second Embodiment]
FIG. 5 shows a connector cover 1A according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The connector cover 1A is a soft rubber molded body, and includes a connector adherent portion 2, an electric wire group adherent portion 3, a protruding portion 4A, and a slit 5d. The structural difference between the connector cover 1A and the connector cover 1 according to the first embodiment is that the protruding portion 4 of the connector cover 1 is developed by three slits 5a, 5b, and 5c. On the other hand, the protruding portion 4A of the connector cover 1A is configured to have two thin plate portions 4e and 4f that are thinner than the protruding portion 4 and developed by one slit 5d.

コネクタカバー１Ａは、スリット５ｄによって２つの薄板部４ｅ，４ｆが展開されたときのコネクタ導入孔６Ａの形状が、第１の実施の形態として示したコネクタ導入孔６の形状と相違するが、コネクタ１２をコネクタ導入孔６Ａに押し込んで収容空間２ａに収容できることで機能を果たすものであり、本質的な相違はない。   In the connector cover 1A, the shape of the connector introduction hole 6A when the two thin plate portions 4e and 4f are developed by the slit 5d is different from the shape of the connector introduction hole 6 shown as the first embodiment. 12 is pushed into the connector introduction hole 6A and can be accommodated in the accommodation space 2a, and there is no essential difference.

コネクタカバー１Ａを含むワイヤハーネスは、第１の実施の形態に係るコネクタカバー１を含むワイヤハーネス１００と同等である。   The wire harness including the connector cover 1A is equivalent to the wire harness 100 including the connector cover 1 according to the first embodiment.

以上のように、本発明は、電線群とコネクタとが接続された状態でコネクタを電線群被着部の筒孔を通してコネクタ被着部に収容することができて、コネクタと接続された電線群を電線群被着部の筒孔より横出し状態とすることができ、作業効率を高めることができるという効果を有し、横出しタイプのワイヤハーネスに装着されるコネクタカバーおよびワイヤハーネス全般に有用である。   As described above, the present invention can accommodate the connector in the connector attaching portion through the cylindrical hole of the wire group attaching portion in a state where the wire group and the connector are connected, and the wire group connected to the connector. Can be placed sideways from the cylindrical hole of the wire group attachment part, which has the effect of improving work efficiency and is useful for connector covers and wire harnesses that are attached to sideways type wire harnesses. It is.
