2. Description of the Related Art It is generally known that a wire harness, for example, is wired as a bundle of wires at a predetermined position on a panel of a vehicle body or an electric device. The wiring harness is wired in accordance with the relationship with surrounding members, the positional relationship of the electronic device, and the like. After the wiring, predetermined portions are firmly bound with a vinyl tape or the like.

A conventional jig shown in FIG. 5 is used for wiring this kind of wire harness. FIG.
Numeral 1 denotes a wiring jig for a wire harness (not shown). The wiring jig 1 includes a U-shaped arm 2 that supports the wire harness so as to sandwich the wire harness and a rod-shaped member 3 connected to the arm 2. Have. This wiring jig 1
Are erected at predetermined intervals on the wiring harness wiring panel member 4, and the erected position is appropriately set according to the branch position of the wire harness, the attachment position of the binding band, and the like.

More specifically, the panel member 4 has an opening 4a.
Are formed, and the rod-shaped member 3 can be inserted through the opening 4a. The lower end of the rod-shaped member 3 has a screw portion 3a.
The bar-shaped member 3 is firmly attached to the panel member 4 by screwing a nut 5 into the screw portion 3a from the back surface of the panel member 4.

In order to wire the wiring harness with the wiring jig 1, wires of a type suitable for the application are inserted sequentially from the open end of the arm 2 into the arm 2, and after the wiring is completed, A vinyl tape or the like is attached to the wire harness to tie it.

The arm 2 is rotatable about the axis of the bar 3 with respect to the bar 3.
The arm 2 can be fixed to the bar-shaped member 3 by tightening the nut 6 attached to the tip of the arm. Therefore, by loosening the nut 6 and changing the direction of the arm 2, the wiring direction of the wire harness can be easily changed.

In such a wiring jig 1, when changing the design of the wire harness (for example, changing the branching position of the wire harness, changing the mounting position of the binding band, etc.). In addition, the position of the opening 4a formed in advance in the panel member 4a must be changed to change the standing position of the wiring jig 1.

Here, for example, in the case of a design change in which the wiring jig 1 needs to be shifted by about 5 mm from the initial position, the opening 4a needs to be shifted by 5 mm from the initial position. There is a problem that the opening 4a at the position overlaps a part of the opening to be formed later, so that the opening 4a cannot be newly formed, and it is not possible to cope with a minute design change. .

In addition, when the standing position of the wiring jig 1 is changed irrespective of such a minute design change, an opening must be newly formed. There is a problem that a troublesome operation for forming the opening occurs.

Further, when the opening 4a is formed obliquely at the initial position, the jig 1 for assembly is set up obliquely from the panel member 3 when the rod-shaped member 3 is inserted through the opening 4a. Also, there has been a problem that the wiring harness cannot be properly wired.

Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a case where the mounting position of the assembling jig can be changed without forming a new opening in the panel member, and the opening is formed in a wrong position.
