Description

この発明はワイヤハーネスの保持構造及び方法に係り、特に、ワイヤハーネスに取り付けたプロテクタを車体または車載部材に保持する際の作業性を向上させたワイヤハーネスの保持構造及び方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a wire harness holding structure and method, and more particularly, to a wire harness holding structure and method with improved workability when holding a protector attached to the wire harness on a vehicle body or a vehicle-mounted member.

車両に配索されるワイヤハーネスは、車両走行時の振動などにより車体または車載部材と干渉することを防止するため、プロテクタにより車体または車載部材に保持される。
従来のワイヤハーネスの保持構造としては、特許文献１において、ワイヤハーネスを車体または車載部材に保持するために、コネクタホルダに突出させた棒状体と大径部を設け、車体または車載部材に大径部よりも大きい大径孔部と大孔径部よりも小さい小幅孔部とを設け、大径部を大径孔部に貫通させた後に小幅孔部にスライドさせて着脱自在に係止するコネクタホルダの保持構造が知られている。 The wire harness routed to the vehicle is held on the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member by a protector to prevent the wiring harness from interfering with the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member due to vibration or the like during traveling of the vehicle.
As a conventional wire harness holding structure, in Patent Literature 1, in order to hold a wire harness on a vehicle body or a vehicle-mounted member, a rod-shaped body and a large-diameter portion protruding from a connector holder are provided. A connector holder that has a large-diameter hole larger than the large-diameter portion and a small-diameter hole smaller than the large-diameter hole, penetrates the large-diameter portion through the large-diameter hole portion, and then slides into the small-diameter hole portion to detachably lock. Is known.

特開２００３−１９７３０７号公報JP 2003-197307 A

しかしながら、上記特許文献１のコネクタホルダの保持構造では、作業者が大径部を大径孔部に貫通させる場合、大径部を貫通させるようコネクタホルダを車体または車載部材側に押し込む際に、どこまで押し込んだ後に小幅孔部にスライドさせればよいのかが分かりづらく、作業性が低下する可能性があり、改善が望まれている。   However, in the connector holder holding structure of Patent Document 1, when an operator pushes the large diameter portion through the large diameter hole portion, when pushing the connector holder into the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member side so as to penetrate the large diameter portion, It is difficult to know how far the slide should be pushed into the narrow hole after being pushed in, and there is a possibility that workability may be reduced, and improvement is desired.

この発明は、上記課題を鑑みてなされるものであり、車両に配索されるワイヤハーネスのプロテクタを車体または車載部材に保持させる際の作業性を向上させることを目的とする。   This invention is made in view of the said subject, and an object of this invention is to improve the workability | operativity at the time of holding the protector of the wire harness wired in a vehicle to a vehicle body or a vehicle-mounted member.

この発明は、車両に配索されるワイヤハーネスのプロテクタが、車両の車体または車載部材に保持されるワイヤハーネスの保持構造において、車体または車載部材は、プロテクタが保持される孔部を有し、プロテクタは、孔部に挿入される係止部を有し、係止部は、孔部周囲の車体または車載部材に係止する爪部と、該爪部よりも後方側において上方に突出して車体または車載部材に接触するリブとを有しており、係止部は、挿入方向から見た爪部の下面とリブの上面との距離が孔部の孔径よりも大きく、かつ、リブの爪部を向く面が車体または車載部材に接触した状態で爪部のリブを向く面が孔部周囲の車体または車載部材に係止してワイヤハーネスを保持し、爪部の後方側には略Ｕ字形状に窪む嵌合溝を有し、挿入方向から見た嵌合溝の底面とリブの上面との距離が、孔径よりも大きいことを特徴とする。 According to the present invention, in a wire harness holding structure in which a wire harness protector routed to a vehicle is held by a vehicle body or a vehicle-mounted member of the vehicle, the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member has a hole in which the protector is held, The protector has a locking portion inserted into the hole, the locking portion includes a claw portion that locks to a vehicle body or a vehicle-mounted member around the hole portion, and a vehicle body that protrudes upward on a rear side behind the claw portion. Alternatively, the locking portion has a rib that is larger than the hole diameter of the hole when the distance between the lower surface of the claw portion and the upper surface of the rib as viewed from the insertion direction is greater than the diameter of the hole. holding the wire harness surface facing the rib claws in contact with the vehicle body or vehicle member locked to the vehicle body or vehicle surrounding members hole portion surface facing a substantially U-shaped at the rear side of the pawl portion It has a fitting groove depressed in the shape, and the fitting groove The distance between the upper surface of the face and ribs being greater than the hole diameter.

この発明は、プロテクタに設けたコネクタ（係止部）が爪部とリブを有しており、挿入方向から見た爪部の下面とリブの上面との距離が孔部の孔径よりも大きいため、リブが車体または車載部材に接触してコネクタがそれ以上挿入されることを防止し、この状態から爪部を孔部周囲の車体または車載部材に係止してワイヤハーネスを車体または車載部材に保持するため、作業性を向上させることができる。 According to the present invention, the connector (locking portion) provided on the protector has the claw portion and the rib, and the distance between the lower surface of the claw portion and the upper surface of the rib as viewed from the insertion direction is larger than the hole diameter of the hole portion. The rib prevents the connector from being further inserted by contact with the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member. From this state, the claw portion is locked to the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member around the hole and the wire harness is connected to the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member. Since the holding is performed, workability can be improved.

以下、図面に基づいて、この発明の実施例を説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図１〜図４は、この発明の実施例を示すものである。図１において、車両に配索されるワイヤハーネス１には、保護用のプロテクタ２を取り付けている。プロテクタ２は、車体であるサイドメンバ３に保持され、ワイヤハーネス１をサイドメンバ３に保持する構造である。
ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造において、サイドメンバ３には、プロテクタ２が保持される孔部４を有する。サイドメンバ３は、図３・図４に示すように、断面が箱形状を有する。孔部４は、図３（Ａ）に示すように、孔部４の中心点Ｃで直交して径外方向に延び、孔部４の縁５を結ぶ２本の線分Ｌ１・Ｌ２の長さＲ１・Ｒ２がそれぞれ異なるように、サイドメンバ３に形成される。
実施例において、孔部４は、図３（Ａ）における上下方向の長さＲ１が、左右方向の長さＲ２よりも長い（Ｒ１＞Ｒ２）。これより、孔部４は、長さＲ１を長径とし、長さＲ１よりも小さい長さＲ２を短径とする孔径の長円形状に形成される。 1 to 4 show an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, a protector 2 for protection is attached to a wire harness 1 arranged in a vehicle. The protector 2 is held by a side member 3 that is a vehicle body, and has a structure in which the wire harness 1 is held by the side member 3.
In the holding structure of the wire harness 1, the side member 3 has a hole 4 in which the protector 2 is held. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the side member 3 has a box-shaped cross section. As shown in FIG. 3A, the hole 4 extends radially outward at right angles at the center point C of the hole 4, and has a length of two line segments L 1 and L 2 connecting the edge 5 of the hole 4. R1 and R2 are formed on the side member 3 so as to be different from each other.
In the embodiment, the length R1 of the hole 4 in the vertical direction in FIG. 3A is longer than the length R2 of the horizontal direction (R1> R2). As a result, the hole 4 is formed in an oval shape having a length R1 as a major axis and a minor axis with a length R2 smaller than the length R1.

プロテクタ２は、孔部４に挿入されるコネクタ（係止部）６を有する。コネクタ６は、図２に示すように、コネクタ本体７と軸部８と爪部９とリブ１０とを有する。コネクタ本体７は、プロテクタ２の側部に突条形状に突出して設けられる。軸部８は、コネクタ本体７から孔部４に向かう挿入方向Ｘに突出して設けられる。
爪部９は、軸部８の挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の一側（図３において下側）から、挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の一方（図３において下方）に突出して設けられる。爪部９は、軸部８の挿入方向Ｘにおける後方側が、コネクタ本体７と離間している。爪部９は、孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３に係止される。 The protector 2 has a connector (locking portion) 6 inserted into the hole 4. As shown in FIG. 2, the connector 6 has a connector main body 7, a shaft portion 8, a claw portion 9, and a rib 10. The connector body 7 is provided on the side of the protector 2 so as to protrude in a ridge shape. The shaft portion 8 is provided to protrude in the insertion direction X from the connector main body 7 toward the hole portion 4.
The claw portion 9 is provided so as to protrude from one side (lower side in FIG. 3) of the direction intersecting the insertion direction X of the shaft portion 8 in one direction (lower side in FIG. 3) in the direction intersecting the insertion direction X. The claw portion 9 is separated from the connector body 7 on the rear side in the insertion direction X of the shaft portion 8. The claw 9 is locked to the side member 3 around the hole 4.

爪部９の後方側には、コネクタ本体７との間に嵌合溝１１を有する。嵌合溝１１は、軸部８の挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の一側（図３において下側）に、逆向きの略Ｕ字形状をしている。嵌合溝１１には、サイドメンバ３の孔部４の縁５側からサイドメンバ３が嵌合する。
嵌合溝１１は、図３（Ｂ）に示すように、挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の上方側に位置する底面１２と、挿入方向Ｘにおける前方側に位置する前方側面１３と、後方側に位置する後方側面１４とを有する。嵌合溝１１にサイドメンバ３が嵌合した状態においては、図４（Ｂ）に示すように、底面１２に孔部４の縁５が接触し、前方側面１３にサイドメンバ３の内面１５が接触し、後方側面１４にサイドメンバ３の外面１６が接触する。
嵌合溝１１の前方側面１３は、爪部９の後方側の側面となる。嵌合溝１１の後方側面１４は、コネクタ本体７の前方側の側面となる。嵌合溝１１は、サイドメンバ３を嵌合させるために、前方側面１３と後方側面１４との間の幅Ｗ１を、サイドメンバ３の厚さＷ２以上とする（Ｗ１≧Ｗ２）。 A fitting groove 11 is provided on the rear side of the claw portion 9 between the claw portion 9 and the connector body 7. The fitting groove 11 has a substantially U-shape in a reverse direction on one side (lower side in FIG. 3) in a direction intersecting the insertion direction X of the shaft portion 8. The side member 3 is fitted into the fitting groove 11 from the edge 5 side of the hole 4 of the side member 3.
As shown in FIG. 3B, the fitting groove 11 has a bottom surface 12 located on the upper side in a direction intersecting the insertion direction X, a front side surface 13 located on the front side in the insertion direction X, and a rear side. And a rear side surface 14 located thereon. When the side member 3 is fitted in the fitting groove 11, the edge 5 of the hole 4 contacts the bottom surface 12 and the inner surface 15 of the side member 3 contacts the front side surface 13, as shown in FIG. The outer surface 16 of the side member 3 comes into contact with the rear side surface 14.
The front side surface 13 of the fitting groove 11 is the rear side surface of the claw portion 9. The rear side surface 14 of the fitting groove 11 is a front side surface of the connector body 7. The fitting groove 11 sets the width W1 between the front side surface 13 and the rear side surface 14 to be equal to or greater than the thickness W2 of the side member 3 in order to fit the side member 3 (W1 ≧ W2).

リブ１０は、爪部９よりも挿入方向Ｘにおける後方側において、コネクタ本体７の挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の他側（図３において上側）から、挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の他方（図３において上方）に突出して設けられる。リブ１０は、挿入方向Ｘにおける前方側に位置する前方側面１７を有する。リブ１０は、爪部９を孔部４に挿入してサイドメンバ３の内面１５に係止させるために、嵌合溝１１の前方側面１３からリブ１０の前方側面１７までの距離Ｗ３を、サイドメンバ３の厚さＷ２以上としている（Ｗ３≧Ｗ２）。
なお、嵌合溝１１の前方側面１３からリブ１０の前方側面１７までの距離Ｗ３は、嵌合溝１１の前方側面１３と後方側面１４との間の幅Ｗ１よりも若干大きくすることで、爪部９の孔部４への挿入を容易にすることができる。 The rib 10 is located on the rear side of the claw portion 9 in the insertion direction X, from the other side (upper side in FIG. 3) in the direction intersecting the insertion direction X of the connector main body 7, from the other side (the upper side in FIG. 3 upwardly). The rib 10 has a front side surface 17 located on the front side in the insertion direction X. The rib 10 has a distance W3 from the front side surface 13 of the fitting groove 11 to the front side surface 17 of the rib 10 so that the claw portion 9 is inserted into the hole portion 4 and locked on the inner surface 15 of the side member 3. The thickness of the member 3 is not less than W2 (W3 ≧ W2).
Note that the distance W3 from the front side surface 13 of the fitting groove 11 to the front side surface 17 of the rib 10 is slightly larger than the width W1 between the front side surface 13 and the rear side surface 14 of the fitting groove 11, so that the claw is formed. Insertion of the portion 9 into the hole 4 can be facilitated.

コネクタ６は、挿入方向Ｘから見た場合、爪部９の下面１８とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ１が、孔部４の長径の長さＲ１よりも大きい（Ｄ１＞Ｒ１）。コネクタ６は、リブ１０の前方側面１７がサイドメンバ３の外面１６に接触した状態で、爪部９が孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３の内面１５に係止することで孔部４に係合し、プロテクタ２をサイドメンバ３に保持する。これにより、プロテクタ２は、ワイヤハーネス１をサイドメンバ３に保持する。
また、コネクタ６は、挿入方向Ｘから見た場合、嵌合溝１１の底面１２とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ２が、孔部４の長径の長さＲ１よりも大きい（Ｄ２＞Ｒ１）。これにより、コネクタ６は、リブ１０が孔部４に挿入されることを防止する。なお、嵌合溝１１の底面１２とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ２は、爪部９の下面１８とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ１よりも小さい（Ｄ２＜Ｄ１）。
さらに、コネクタ６は、図３に示すように、軸部８の挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の他側（図３において上側）に上側ガイド部２０を有し、軸部８の挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向、且つ上側ガイド部２０と交差する方向の両側（図３において右側、左側）に右側ガイド部２１、左側ガイド部２２を有する。上側ガイド部２０、右側ガイド部２１、左側ガイド部２２は、図３（Ａ）に示すように、コネクタ６を孔部４への挿入時に、爪部９とともに孔部４の縁５に接触し、挿入を案内する。 In the connector 6, when viewed from the insertion direction X, the distance D1 between the lower surface 18 of the claw portion 9 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 is larger than the length R1 of the long diameter of the hole portion 4 (D1> R1). The connector 6 engages with the hole 4 by engaging the claw 9 with the inner surface 15 of the side member 3 around the hole 4 with the front side surface 17 of the rib 10 in contact with the outer surface 16 of the side member 3. Then, the protector 2 is held on the side member 3. Thereby, the protector 2 holds the wire harness 1 on the side member 3.
In the connector 6, when viewed from the insertion direction X, the distance D2 between the bottom surface 12 of the fitting groove 11 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 is greater than the length R1 of the major axis of the hole 4 (D2> R1). . Thereby, the connector 6 prevents the rib 10 from being inserted into the hole 4. The distance D2 between the bottom surface 12 of the fitting groove 11 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 is smaller than the distance D1 between the lower surface 18 of the claw portion 9 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 (D2 <D1).
Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the connector 6 has an upper guide portion 20 on the other side (upper side in FIG. 3) in a direction intersecting the insertion direction X of the shaft portion 8, and A right guide portion 21 and a left guide portion 22 are provided on both sides (right and left sides in FIG. 3) in the direction intersecting and intersecting with the upper guide portion 20. As shown in FIG. 3A, the upper guide portion 20, the right guide portion 21, and the left guide portion 22 contact the edge 5 of the hole 4 together with the claw 9 when the connector 6 is inserted into the hole 4. Guide the insertion.

ワイヤハーネス１に取り付けたプロテクタ２は、図１に示すように、コネクタ６をサイドメンバ３の孔部４と対向するように位置させて、コネクタ６を孔部４に挿入する。コネクタ６は、孔部４への挿入時に、図３（Ａ）に示すように、軸部８の上側ガイド部２０、右側ガイド部２１、左側ガイド部２２、及び爪部９が孔部４の縁５に接触し、孔部４内への挿入を案内される。
コネクタ６は、挿入方向Ｘから見た爪部９の下面１８とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ１が、孔部４の長径の長さＲ１よりも大きい（Ｄ１＞Ｒ１）ので、図３（Ｂ）に示すように、嵌合溝１１が孔部４の下側の縁５と対向し、リブ１０の前方側面１７がサイドメンバ３の外面１６に接触し、また、嵌合溝１１の後方側面１４と連なるコネクタ本体７の前方側の側面がサイドメンバ３の外面１６に接触した状態となる。
この状態において、コネクタ６は、リブ１０及びコネクタ本体７がサイドメンバ３の外面１６に接触しているので、コネクタ６がそれ以上孔部４に挿入されることはない。 The protector 2 attached to the wire harness 1 positions the connector 6 so as to face the hole 4 of the side member 3 and inserts the connector 6 into the hole 4 as shown in FIG. When the connector 6 is inserted into the hole 4, as shown in FIG. 3A, the upper guide 20, the right guide 21, the left guide 22, and the claw 9 of the shaft 8 are connected to the hole 4. It touches the rim 5 and is guided for insertion into the hole 4.
In the connector 6, since the distance D1 between the lower surface 18 of the claw portion 9 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 as viewed from the insertion direction X is larger than the length R1 of the major axis of the hole 4 (D1> R1), FIG. As shown in B), the fitting groove 11 faces the lower edge 5 of the hole 4, the front side surface 17 of the rib 10 contacts the outer surface 16 of the side member 3, and the rear side of the fitting groove 11. The front side surface of the connector body 7 connected to the side surface 14 comes into contact with the outer surface 16 of the side member 3.
In this state, since the rib 10 and the connector body 7 are in contact with the outer surface 16 of the side member 3 in this state, the connector 6 is not inserted into the hole 4 any more.

コネクタ６は、孔部４内において挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の一側（図４において下側）に移動させて、嵌合溝１１に孔部４の下側のサイドメンバ３を嵌合すると、図４に示すように、嵌合溝１１の底面１２が孔部４の下側の縁５に接触し、孔部４に係合する。
孔部４に係合したコネクタ６は、挿入方向Ｘから見た嵌合溝１１の底面１２とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ２が、孔部４の長径の長さＲ１よりも大きい（Ｄ２＞Ｒ１）ので、嵌合溝１１の底面１２が孔部４の縁５と接触した状態において、リブ１０の前方側面１７がサイドメンバ３の外面１６に接触し、また、爪部９の後方側の側面である嵌合溝１１の前方側面１３がサイドメンバ３の内面１５に接触し、コネクタ本体７の前方側の側面となる嵌合溝１１の後方側面１４がサイドメンバ３の外面１６に接触した状態となる。
コネクタ６は、リブ１０がサイドメンバ３に接触した状態で、爪部９が孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３の内面１５に係止することで、プロテクタ２をサイドメンバ３に保持する。これにより、プロテクタ２は、ワイヤハーネス１をサイドメンバ３に保持する。
なお、サイドメンバ３に保持したプロテクタ２を取り外す際には、コネクタ６を孔部４内において挿入方向Ｘと交差する方向の他側（図４において上側）に移動させて嵌合溝１１から孔部４の下側のサイドメンバ３の嵌合を外し、コネクタ６を孔部４から外に抜き出すことで、プロテクタ２を容易にサイドメンバ３から外すことができる。 When the connector 6 is moved to one side (lower side in FIG. 4) in the direction intersecting the insertion direction X in the hole 4, the lower side member 3 of the hole 4 is fitted into the fitting groove 11. As shown in FIG. 4, the bottom surface 12 of the fitting groove 11 contacts the lower edge 5 of the hole 4 and engages with the hole 4.
In the connector 6 engaged with the hole 4, the distance D2 between the bottom surface 12 of the fitting groove 11 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 as viewed from the insertion direction X is larger than the length R1 of the major axis of the hole 4 (D2). > R1), in a state where the bottom surface 12 of the fitting groove 11 is in contact with the edge 5 of the hole 4, the front side surface 17 of the rib 10 contacts the outer surface 16 of the side member 3, and the rear side of the claw portion 9. The front side surface 13 of the fitting groove 11, which is the side surface of the connector body 7, contacts the inner surface 15 of the side member 3, and the rear side surface 14 of the fitting groove 11, which becomes the front side surface of the connector body 7, contacts the outer surface 16 of the side member 3. It will be in the state of having done.
The connector 6 holds the protector 2 on the side member 3 by engaging the claw 9 with the inner surface 15 of the side member 3 around the hole 4 while the rib 10 is in contact with the side member 3. Thereby, the protector 2 holds the wire harness 1 on the side member 3.
When the protector 2 held by the side member 3 is to be removed, the connector 6 is moved to the other side (upward in FIG. The protector 2 can be easily removed from the side member 3 by releasing the fitting of the lower side member 3 of the portion 4 and extracting the connector 6 from the hole 4.

このように、ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造においては、プロテクタ２に設けたコネクタ６が爪部９とリブ１０を有しており、挿入方向Ｘから見た爪部９の下面１８とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ１が孔部４の長さＲ１よりも大きい。
このため、上述ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造によれば、孔部４へのコネクタ６の挿入時に、リブ１０がサイドメンバ３に接触してコネクタ６がそれ以上挿入されることを防止でき、この状態から爪部９を孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３に係止してワイヤハーネス１をサイドメンバ３に保持するため、作業性を向上させることができる。
また、ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造においては、嵌合溝１１の底面１２とリブ１０の上面１９との距離Ｄ２が、孔部４の長径の長さＲ１よりも大きいので、爪部９を孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３に係止しても、リブ１０がサイドメンバ３に接触してコネクタ６がそれ以上挿入されることを防止すると共に、略Ｕ字形状の嵌合溝１１を支点としてコネクタ６が図４（Ｂ）における左向きに回転することを防止することができる。
このため、上述ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造によれば、プロテクタ２をサイドメンバ３に保持する際の作業性を向上させつつ、爪部９に応力が集中することを防止することができる。
さらに、ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造においては、孔部４の中心点Ｃで直交して、孔部４の縁５を結ぶ２本の線分Ｌ１・Ｌ２の長さＤ１・Ｄ２がそれぞれ異なり、孔部４が長円形状となっているため、コネクタ６が所定角度だけ軸部８の周方向に回転すると、上側ガイド部２０が孔部４の側方の縁５に接触して、嵌合溝１１からコネクタ６を抜き出すための孔部４内におけるコネクタ６の移動を阻止することから、コネクタ６を取り出すことができなくなる。
このため、上述ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造によれば、コネクタ６が長円形状の孔部４内において回転した場合であっても、サイドメンバ３に係止した爪部９が外れることを防止でき、プロテクタ２をサイドメンバ３に保持することができる。 As described above, in the holding structure of the wire harness 1, the connector 6 provided on the protector 2 has the claw portions 9 and the ribs 10, and the lower surface 18 of the claw portion 9 and the upper surface of the ribs 10 viewed from the insertion direction X. The distance D1 from the hole 19 is larger than the length R1 of the hole 4.
For this reason, according to the holding structure of the wire harness 1, when the connector 6 is inserted into the hole 4, the rib 10 can be prevented from contacting the side member 3 and the connector 6 can be prevented from being further inserted. Since the hook 9 is engaged with the side member 3 around the hole 4 to hold the wire harness 1 on the side member 3, workability can be improved.
Further, in the holding structure of the wire harness 1, since the distance D2 between the bottom surface 12 of the fitting groove 11 and the upper surface 19 of the rib 10 is larger than the length R1 of the major axis of the hole 4, the claw 9 is not provided. 4 prevents the rib 10 from coming into contact with the side member 3 to prevent the connector 6 from being further inserted even when the connector 6 is locked to the side member 3 around the connector. 6 can be prevented from rotating leftward in FIG. 4 (B).
For this reason, according to the holding structure of the wire harness 1, it is possible to prevent stress from being concentrated on the claw portion 9 while improving workability when holding the protector 2 on the side member 3.
Further, in the holding structure of the wire harness 1, the lengths D1 and D2 of two line segments L1 and L2 connecting the edge 5 of the hole 4 orthogonally at the center point C of the hole 4 are different from each other. When the connector 6 is rotated by a predetermined angle in the circumferential direction of the shaft portion 8, the upper guide portion 20 comes into contact with the side edge 5 of the hole portion 4, and the fitting groove is formed. Since the movement of the connector 6 in the hole 4 for extracting the connector 6 from the connector 11 is prevented, the connector 6 cannot be taken out.
For this reason, according to the above-described holding structure of the wire harness 1, even when the connector 6 rotates in the oval hole 4, the claw 9 locked on the side member 3 can be prevented from coming off. , The protector 2 can be held by the side member 3.

また、ワイヤハーネス１の保持構造は、サイドメンバ３にプロテクタ２が保持される孔部４を有し、孔部４に挿入されるコネクタ６を有し、コネクタ６は、孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３に係止する爪部９と、爪部９よりも後方側において上方に突出してサイドメンバ３に接触するリブ１０とを有している。このワイヤハーネス１の保持方法においては、コネクタ６が孔部４に挿入されるとリブ１０とサイドメンバ３とが接触し、その後、爪部９と孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３とが係止することで、ワイヤハーネス１を保持する。
このように、ワイヤハーネス１の保持方法によれば、コネクタ６が爪部９とリブ１０を有しているため、リブ１０がサイドメンバ３に接触してコネクタ６がそれ以上挿入されることを防止して、爪部９と孔部４周囲のサイドメンバ３とが係止してワイヤハーネス１をサイドメンバ３に保持するため、作業性を向上させることができる。 Further, the holding structure of the wire harness 1 has a hole 4 in which the protector 2 is held in the side member 3 and a connector 6 inserted in the hole 4. The claw portion 9 is engaged with the member 3, and the claw portion 9 has a rib 10 protruding upward at a rear side of the claw portion 9 and in contact with the side member 3. In the method of holding the wire harness 1, when the connector 6 is inserted into the hole 4, the rib 10 comes into contact with the side member 3, and then the claw 9 and the side member 3 around the hole 4 are locked. By doing so, the wire harness 1 is held.
As described above, according to the method of holding the wire harness 1, since the connector 6 has the claw portions 9 and the ribs 10, it is possible to prevent the ribs 10 from contacting the side members 3 and inserting the connector 6 further. In this case, the claw portion 9 and the side member 3 around the hole 4 are locked to hold the wire harness 1 on the side member 3, so that workability can be improved.

なお、上述実施例においては、プロテクタ２を保持する車体としてサイドメンバ３を例示したが、サイドメンバ３以外の車体として、サイドシルやピラーなどとすることもできる。また、プロテクタ２を保持する部材としては、車体以外に、車載部材であるブラケットやトレイ、電気接続箱などとすることもできる。なお、車体または車載部材とは、上述した部材に限らず、プロテクタ２が保持される孔部を有しているものであればよい。これら車体または車載部材にプロテクタ２を保持させることで、ワイヤハーネス１を保持させる際の作業性を向上することができる。   In the above-described embodiment, the side member 3 is illustrated as the vehicle body that holds the protector 2, but the vehicle body other than the side member 3 may be a side sill or a pillar. In addition, the member holding the protector 2 may be a vehicle-mounted member such as a bracket, a tray, or an electric connection box, in addition to the vehicle body. In addition, the vehicle body or the vehicle-mounted member is not limited to the above-described members, and may be any member having a hole for holding the protector 2. By holding the protector 2 on these vehicle bodies or vehicle-mounted members, workability when holding the wire harness 1 can be improved.

この発明は、ワイヤハーネスのプロテクタを車体または車載部材に保持させる際の作業性を向上させることできるものであり、ワイヤハーネスに限らず、索条体に取り付けた保持部材で索条体を他の部材に保持させる構造に応用が可能である。   The present invention can improve workability when holding a protector of a wire harness on a vehicle body or a vehicle-mounted member. It can be applied to a structure to be held by a member.
