Effects and effects of the invention

In the first aspect, the piping member can be passed through the mounting hole of the panel together with the piping restraint portion even from a position out of reach with the piping restraining portion attached to the piping member.
And after that, the pipe restraint part is connected to the attachment hole in a state where the pipe restraint part is pulled out to the side opposite to the insertion side into the attachment hole together with the pipe member, and then the pipe restraint part is pushed back into the attachment hole. The holder of the form divided | segmented into the collar part and the collar part can be fixed to a panel with a piping member.
According to the first aspect, after the piping member is passed through the mounting hole of the panel alone, the entire holder is attached to the piping member on the side opposite to the insertion side, and the piping member is fixed to the panel with the holder. In comparison, the number of work steps after passing the piping member through the mounting hole is small, and the piping member can be easily fixed to the panel.

  Here, the holder includes a fitting protrusion that is inserted into the mounting hole and is positioned and fitted in a direction perpendicular to the axis, and includes a first divided body that includes most of the fitting protrusion and a second portion that includes a small portion. It can divide | segment into a division body, the said pipe | tube restraint part can be comprised with the 1st division body, and the collar part can be comprised integrally with the 2nd division body.

Further, according to claim 2, in a state where a plurality of piping members are restrained by the piping restraining portion, the plurality of piping members together with the piping restraining portions are attached to the mounting holes of the panel, for example, even from a position where they cannot be reached. Then, after fixing the flange portion, the pipe restraining portion is pushed back into the mounting hole from the opposite side, whereby the holder and the piping member can be fixed to the panel.

  Here, the first holder 22, which is already fixed to the panel 16, holds the piping members 10, 12, and 14 so as to be relatively movable in the axial direction, so that the piping members 10, 12, and 14 are pushed back. The second holder 24 can be easily inserted into and fixed to the mounting hole 21 of the panel 18.

  When the first holder 22 holds the hoses 10A, 12A, and 14A in a fixed state in the axial direction, when the fitting pipes 10B, 12B, and 14B are attached and fixed to the attachment holes 21 of the panel 18 using the second holder 24 Further, the joint pipes 10B, 12B, and 14B, that is, the piping members 10, 12, and 14 cannot be pulled out from the mounting hole 21 of the panel 18 to the outer surface 25 side, and the second holder 24 is inserted into the mounting hole 21 of the panel 18. When pushing back from the outer surface 25 side, the piping members 10, 12, and 14 cannot be pushed back. Therefore, the joint pipes 10B, 12B, and 14B cannot be fixed to the panel 18 by the second holder 24. In the present embodiment, since the first holder 22 holds the hoses 10A, 12A, and 14A so as to be relatively movable in the axial direction, the space between the pair of panels 16 and 18 is the working space. Even if it cannot be used, the piping members 10, 12, 14 can be easily attached with a single touch using the pair of first and second holders 22, 24, and the mounting holes 20 of the pair of panels 16, 18. It can be attached and fixed to each of 21.

In the above description, the first holder 22 is first fixed to the mounting hole 20 of the panel 16, and then the second holder 24 is fixed to the mounting hole 21 of the panel 18. However, the order of fixing them is reversed. That is, the piping members 10, 12, 14 are first fixed to the mounting holes 21 of the panel 18 by the second holder 24, and then the piping members 10, 12, 14 are fixed to the mounting holes 20 of the panel 16 by the first holder 22. You may make it fix.
Even in this case, the hoses 10A, 12A, and 14A, that is, the piping members 10, 12, and 14 can be moved relative to the first holder 22 in the axial direction. Even when the first holder 22 is held so as not to be relatively movable in the axial direction, the first holder 22 can be pushed back into the mounting hole 20 of the panel 16 and fixed without any trouble.

According to the present embodiment as described above, the piping members 10, 12, and 14 can be passed through the mounting body 21 through the mounting hole 21 of the panel 18 even from a position out of reach.
After that, the divided body 24-1 is pulled out together with the piping members 10, 12, and 14 to a side opposite to the insertion side, and the divided body 24-2 including the flange portion 58 is joined thereto, and then divided. The second holder 24 and the piping members 10, 12, and 14 can be fixed to the panel 18 by pushing the fitting protrusion 56 of the body 24-1 back into the mounting hole 21 from the outer surface 25 side.
According to this embodiment, since the divided body 24-1 is assembled with the piping members 10, 12, and 14 and passed through the mounting holes 21 of the panel 18, the piping members 10, 12, and 14 are attached. The number of work steps after passing through the hole 21 is small, and the piping members 10, 12, and 14 can be easily fixed to the panel 18.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, it is easier to insert the piping members 10, 12, and 14 into the mounting holes 21 than when the piping members 10, 12, and 14 are passed through the mounting holes 21 in a disjoint state. In addition to this, there is no problem in that the pipe members 10, 12, and 14 that are separated at that time are not easily passed through the mounting hole 21 and are damaged.

  Further, after the piping members 10, 12, and 14 are individually passed through the mounting holes 21, the entire second holder 24 is assembled to the piping members 10, 12, and 14 on the side opposite to the insertion side. However, in this embodiment, it is only necessary to join the divided body 24-2 later, and the work is simple.

  In the present embodiment, the divided bodies 22-1 and 22-2 and 24-1 and 24-2 are coupled in the direction perpendicular to the axis by the elastic claw 46 and the latching protrusion 48 provided on the divided bodies 22-1 and 22-2 and 24-1 and 24-2. By simply combining the divided bodies 22-1 and 22-2 and 24-1, 24-2, they can be automatically combined in the direction perpendicular to the axis.
