Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle body structure, and more particularly, to a vehicle body structure capable of easily removing a wire harness from a vehicle body to which the wire harness is routed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Amid increasing awareness of environmental issues, interest in the effective use of resources is increasing. Such problems are no exception for discarded vehicles. In particular, the amount of wire harnesses used in recent electronically controlled vehicles is enormous, and at present it cannot be ignored.

[0003] Under such circumstances, wire harnesses are sorted and collected for recycling, but there is a problem that the work for removing the wire harness from the vehicle body is not easy. That is, since the wiring harness is routed adjacent to the vehicle body, that is, in a state where there is almost no gap, when the dismantling company removes the wiring harness from the vehicle body, it is necessary to firmly engage the removal tool with the wiring harness. Is difficult. In order to engage the removal tool with the wire harness, extra work such as removing some clamps to create a space for inserting the tip of the removal tool is required. When removing the wire harness using a crane truck, pass the wire around the wire harness and pull the wire with a crane truck.
That was being done.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.
An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle body structure capable of improving workability of removing a wire harness from a vehicle body.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, there is provided a wiring harness for a vehicle body, wherein a recess opening toward the wiring harness is formed in a wiring route of the wire harness. The present invention is achieved by providing a vehicle body structure in which a concave portion forms an insertion space for a wire harness removal tool.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail based on preferred embodiments. FIG. 1 shows a wire harness 2 attached to a vehicle body side 1. The wire harness 2 has a connector 3 connected to an end of an electric wire, and connection with an electric system in a vehicle is performed via the connector 3. The wire harness 2 is routed at a predetermined position by a plurality of fasteners 4 arranged at intervals in the longitudinal direction. FIG. 2 is a schematic plan view of the vehicle body side 7 at the foot of the driver's seat in plan view. Even in this wire harness 8, it is arranged at a predetermined position by a plurality of fasteners 9 arranged at intervals in the longitudinal direction.

Although the wire harnesses 2 and 8 are mounted adjacent to the vehicle bodies 1 and 7 in a state where there is almost no gap (see FIG. 3), the wire harnesses 2 and 8 have
Along the wiring path of the wire harnesses 2 and 8, there are formed recesses 10 opening toward the wiring path of the wire harnesses 2 and 8, and a plurality of these recesses 10 are arranged at intervals. As can be understood from FIGS. 4 and 5, the recess 10 forms an insertion space for a wire harness removal tool between the wired wire harnesses 2 and 8 and the vehicle body sides 1 and 7. It is desirable that the shape of the insertion space formed by the recess 10 conforms to the shape of the tip of a wire harness removal tool such as a nibble or a clamper of a crane truck. By doing so, the operation of inserting the tip becomes very smooth.

When removing the wire harnesses 2 and 8 from the vehicle body sides 1 and 7, a removal tool such as a hook 11 of a crane truck is inserted into the recess 10 as shown in FIG. After the hooks 11 are hooked, the hooks 11 may be pulled up to remove the wire harnesses 2 and 8 from the vehicle body sides 1 and 7. As shown in FIG.
And put the wire harnesses 2 and 8 into the other gripper 12.
b, the wire harnesses 2, 8 are firmly gripped, and then the wire harnesses 2, 8 are pulled by the nibble 12 to connect the wire harnesses 2, 8 to the vehicle body 1,
7 can be removed.

[0009] As described above, since the insertion space of the removal tool is formed by the concave portion arranged along the wiring route of the wire harnesses 2 and 8,
12 can be easily and reliably engaged with the wire harnesses 2 and 8, so that the workability of the wire harness removal operation can be improved.

[0010]

According to the present invention, the above configuration is employed, so that the tip end of the wire harness removal tool can be easily and surely engaged in dismantling work of the vehicle, so that sorting and collecting can be performed with good workability. It becomes possible.
