The suction unit 14 comprises, for example, a well-known vacuum pump or the like, and is connected to the mold 16 or the like. The suction unit 14 sucks gas between the first resin sheet 8 and the second resin sheet 9 when assembling the wire harness 2 as described later.

When assembling the wire harness 2 with the wire harness manufacturing apparatus 1 having the above-described configuration, first, FIG.
In step S1 in the middle, the first resin sheet 8 is subjected to a punching process or the like, and unnecessary portions of the first resin sheet 8 are removed. Thus, in step S1, the first resin sheet 8 is formed into a desired shape, and the process proceeds to step S2. When the first resin sheet 8 is punched, a separate device from the wire harness manufacturing device 1 may be used. Furthermore, the first resin sheet 8 may be formed into a desired shape by punching the first resin sheet 8 by bringing the contact / separation portion 12 and the mold 16 closer to each other.

Then, as shown in FIG. 10, the second resin sheet 9 is
The first resin sheet 8 and the electric wire 3 are brought closer to each other.

Then, the second resin sheet 9 softens and the adhesive 10 melts. Then, the first resin sheet 8 and the second resin sheet 9 come into contact with each other, and the suction unit 14 sucks the gas between the first resin sheet 8 and the second resin sheet 9. The first resin sheet 8, the second resin sheet 9 and the electric wire 3 are in close contact with each other, and
The electric wire 3 is sandwiched between the resin sheet 8 and the second resin sheet 9. Both the first resin sheet 8 and the electric wire 3 and the second resin sheet 9 are joined to each other by the adhesive force of the adhesive 10. Thus, the first resin sheet 8 and the electric wire 3
And the second resin sheet 9 are joined to each other,
Proceed to step S6.

In step S 6, as shown in FIG. 8, after the contact / separation portion 12 is raised again, the electric wire 3 is removed from the mold 16 together with the resin sheets 8 and 9. Then, unnecessary portions of the first and second resin sheets 8 and 9 are cut off by punching or the like to obtain the wire harness 2 shown in FIG.

According to this embodiment, a plurality of heaters 13 as heating means are provided, and the holding jig 21 can hold a plurality of second resin sheets 9 side by side. For example, the holding jig 21 is provided with the second
By holding the resin sheet 9, only the second resin sheet 9 held by the holding jig 21 can be heated by the heater 13.
Thus, only the second resin sheet 9 at a required position can be heated.

Therefore, the second resin sheet 9 can be joined only to the required position of the first resin sheet 8. Therefore, after joining these resin sheets 8 and 9 to each other,
When punching is performed, the amount of wasted second resin sheet 9 is reduced. Therefore, particularly, the material yield of the second resin sheet 9 can be improved, and a rise in the cost of the wire harness 2 can be suppressed.

Further, the holding jig 21 can hold the second resin sheets 9 side by side along the arrows X and Y, respectively. Further, heaters 13 are arranged along the arrows X and Y, respectively. Therefore, the heaters 13 can reliably heat the second resin sheets 9 stored in the spaces K of the corresponding holding jigs 21. Therefore, only the second resin sheet 9 at the required position can be more reliably heated, and the second resin sheet 9 can be more reliably joined only at the required position of the first resin sheet 8.

For this reason, when the resin sheets 8 and 9 are joined to each other and then punched, the amount of wasteful second resin sheet 9 is more reliably reduced. Therefore, in particular, the material yield of the second resin sheet 9 can be more reliably improved, and a rise in the cost of the wire harness 2 can be more reliably suppressed.

Further, the suction unit 14 sucks gas from between the first resin sheet 8 and the second resin sheet 9. Therefore, the first resin sheet 8, the electric wire 3, and the second resin sheet 9 can be more reliably joined.

In the above-described embodiment, the wire harness manufacturing apparatus 1 joins the first resin sheet 8 and the second resin sheet 9. However, in the wire harness manufacturing apparatus 1 of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, only the second resin sheet 9 may be joined to the bent portion A and the branched portion B of the electric wire 3.
