Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To exactly hold wires, ranging from a thin wire to a thick wire. SOLUTION: The wire clamp 1 comprises a clamp base 3 that houses a wire 5 and a clamp cover 4 engaged with the clamp base, a flexible wire pressing part 8 is formed inside the clamp cover 4, the wire pressing part 8 is composed of a pressing part 9 at one end and a supporting part 10 at the other end, and the pressing part and the supporting part are continued to walls 21, 26 with which the clamp cover 4 crosses. The supporting part 10 is made thinner than the pressing part 9. A space 13 to which the wire 5 is inserted is formed in the clamp base 3 so as to oppose the pressing part 9. The wire pressing part 8, in a state that the wire 5 is not pressed, is made possible to enter the space 13. The supporting part 10 is brought into contact with a wall 14 at one side of the clamp base 3, to prevent the wire 5 to wraparound. A notch 27 to which the pressing part 9 is entered is formed at a wall 15 at the other side of the clamp base 3. The wire pressing part 8 is molded in one piece with the clamp cover 4.

As shown in FIG. 4, when a thin electric wire 5 is used, or when the number of electric wires 5 is small, a part of the electric wire 5 in the longitudinal direction is pressed by the electric wire pressing portion 8 into the hole portion 13, The electric wire 5 is pushed into the hole 13 in a bent state with the upper and lower edges 34 in front of and behind 13 as a fulcrum. This is a case where the pressing force of the wire pressing portion 8 is stronger than the bending force of the wire 5.
By bending and entering the electric wire 5 into the hole portion 13, the electric wire holding force with respect to the substrate portion 12 is increased, and the movement of the electric wire 5 is prevented even with respect to the tensile force in the longitudinal direction of the electric wire 5.
The inner width of the hole 13 with respect to the width L of the wire pressing portion 8 is set appropriately.
