Description

  The present invention relates to a band clip for a wire harness used for bundling a plurality of electric wires arranged in a vehicle and fixing them to a vehicle body panel or the like.

  Conventionally, a band clip for a wire harness is used to bind a plurality of electric wires routed in a vehicle and fix them to an attachment member such as a vehicle body panel. This band clip for a wire harness includes a band part wound around the outer periphery of the wire harness, a band base part having an insertion hole in which the band part is locked so as not to be pulled out, and a clip fitted into the attachment hole of the attachment member For example, the structure described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-189806 (Patent Document 1) can be given.

  That is, in the wire harness band clip described in Patent Document 1, the band portion is wound around the plurality of electric wires, and the band portion is inserted from the distal end side into the insertion hole provided in the band base portion, so that the band portion is A plurality of electric wires are bundled together because they cannot be removed from the insertion hole. And a wire harness is fixed to a vehicle body panel by inserting the clip part provided in the band base into the attachment hole of the vehicle body panel.

  By the way, when fixing the wire harness to the vehicle body panel, since the fixing direction of the wire harness with respect to the vehicle body panel is determined, it is necessary to project the clip portion from a predetermined position on the circumference of the wire harness.

  However, in the wire harness band clip described in Patent Document 1, since the position of the clip portion cannot be changed in the circumferential direction of the wire harness, for example, when viewed from the operator, there is an attachment hole in the back of the wire harness. In some cases, the band base is located in the back of the wire harness, and there is a possibility that the operation of inserting the band through the insertion hole of the band base may be difficult.

JP 2007-189806 A

  Here, the present invention has been made in the background as described above, and the problem to be solved is that the protruding direction of the clip portion can be arbitrarily set in the circumferential direction of the wire harness. An object of the present invention is to provide a band clip for a wire harness having a novel structure.

  According to a first aspect of the present invention, a band portion wound around an outer periphery of a wire harness, a band base portion having an insertion hole in which the band portion is locked so as not to be pulled out, and a mounting hole of a mounting member are fitted. In the wire harness band clip including the clip portion, the band portion is provided with a plurality of rail regions that are separated from each other in the longitudinal direction of the band portion and extend by a predetermined length. An engagement portion that engages with each rail region is provided, and the clip portion engages the engagement portion with any one of the rail regions selected from the plurality of rail regions. The rail region is mounted so as to be movable and unremovable.

  According to the wire harness band clip structured according to this aspect, the band portion is provided with a plurality of rail regions, and the clip portion is extracted from any one of the plurality of rail regions. Since it is mounted impossible, the clip portion can be provided at an arbitrary position of the band portion wound around the outer periphery of the wire harness. Thus, for example, even when the mounting hole is at the back of the wire harness as viewed from the operator and the clip portion needs to protrude to the back of the wire harness, the band base can be positioned at a circumferential position that is easy to see from the operator. Thus, the operation of inserting the band portion into the insertion hole can be stably performed.

  In addition, since the clip portion can be attached to any one rail region selected from a plurality of rail regions, a plurality of types of band portions in which the positions of the clip portions are different using the same shape clip portion and band portion. Can be manufactured. Thereby, the effort and cost which manufacture separately the multiple types of band clip from which the position of a clip part differs can be reduced. In addition, the shape of a clip part can employ | adopt multiple types of shapes corresponding to the shape of a mounting hole, such as a round hole shape, an ellipse shape, and a bolt shape, for example, while making a band part and a band base common, Different types of clip portions may be prepared, and arbitrary clip portions may be selected according to the shape of the mounting hole. In addition, since the clip portion is engaged with the rail region so that it cannot be pulled out by engaging the engagement portion with the rail region, the wire harness is stably attached and held to the attachment member via the clip portion. It can be done.

  In addition, it is only necessary that the clip part is not able to be extracted from the rail area in the normal mounting state that engages with the rail area of the engaging part, and in the non-normal mounting state where the engaging part is not engaged with the rail area, It may be possible to extract from the rail region. Thus, even after the clip portion is mounted on the rail region, it is possible to remove the clip portion and mount it again to another rail region by setting the clip portion in a non-mounted state.

  Further, in the band portion, the rail region is provided with a predetermined length, and the clip portion is movable in the rail region. In other words, the movable range of the clip portion is defined by the rail region. Thereby, for example, when it is desired to suppress the displacement of the wire harness due to the vibration of the vehicle after the wire harness is fixed to the vehicle body panel, the length of each rail region is shortened so that the displacement between the band portion and the clip portion is reduced. It is possible to reduce the amount. Also, if you want to eliminate the difficulty in assembling the wire harness to the vehicle body panel due to variations in wire harness shape or dimensional tolerances, increasing the length of each rail area makes it easier to achieve dimensional tolerances. Absorption is also possible.

  A second aspect of the present invention is a wire harness band clip according to the first aspect, wherein the band part includes a rail part extending continuously in the longitudinal direction. Is provided with a plurality of stopper walls at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction, and the rail regions are defined by the adjacent stopper walls.

  According to the wire harness band clip structured according to this aspect, a plurality of rail regions are formed with a simple structure in which a rail portion provided in the band portion and extending in the longitudinal direction is divided by a stopper wall provided at a predetermined interval. Can be provided. Further, compared to the case where a plurality of rail regions are provided separately, the height direction position and the width direction position of the rail region in the band portion can be aligned, and the height direction in the clip portion mounted on the different rail region The positional deviation in the width direction can be effectively suppressed.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the wire harness band clip according to the second aspect, the clip portion is movable between the adjacent rail regions when the engaging portion gets over the stopper wall. It is what has been.

  According to the band clip for a wire harness structured according to this aspect, since the clip portion can move on the rail portion when the engaging portion gets over the stopper wall, for example, the position of the clip portion in the band portion is changed. When changing, it is not necessary to remove the clip part from the band part, and the position of the clip part in the band part can be easily set.

  In the wire harness fixture having the structure according to the present invention, a plurality of rail regions are provided in the band portion, and the clip portion can be engaged with any one rail region selected from the plurality of rail regions. The protruding direction of the clip portion can be arbitrarily set in the circumferential direction of the wire harness.

Furthermore, the vertical direction refers to the vertical direction in FIG.

  More specifically, the band portion 12 is a long member having flexibility as a whole, and extends in the left-right direction in FIG. 3 and 4, the band portion 12 includes a rail portion 15 having a substantially U-shaped cross section. That is, the rail portion 15 includes a bottom wall portion 16 and the bottom wall portion. 16 includes a pair of side wall portions 18 and 18 rising upward from both sides in the width direction (left and right direction in FIG. 3). Further, inwardly projecting portions 20 and 20 projecting inward in the width direction are provided at upper ends of the side wall portions 18 and 18. By providing such an inward projecting portion 20, a pair of engaging grooves 21, 21 are formed in the rail portion 15 so as to open and face inward in the width direction. In the present embodiment, the rail portion 15 extends continuously over substantially the entire length of the band portion 12 in the longitudinal direction. The region surrounded by the rail portion 15 is communicated with the external space through the opening 24 between the inward projecting portions 20 and 20.

  In addition, a pair of inward protrusion part 20 and 20 has the predetermined separation distance A (refer FIG. 3) in the width direction, and has opposed.

  A plurality of locking teeth 26 protrude from the upper surface of the bottom wall portion 16 at substantially equal intervals over a predetermined distance in the longitudinal direction of the band portion 12. Each locking tooth 26 has substantially the same shape, and has a substantially trapezoidal or substantially right-angled triangular cross section. That is, the surface on the distal end side of each locking tooth 26 is an inclined surface that inclines downward as it becomes the distal end side, while the surface on the proximal end side of each locking tooth 26 is a vertical surface extending in the vertical direction. Yes. In this embodiment, the dimension in the width direction (the dimension in the left-right direction in FIG. 3) of each locking tooth 26 is substantially equal to the facing distance A of the inwardly projecting portions 20 and 20.

  The rail portion 15 is provided with a plurality of stopper walls 28 at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction, and the rail portion 15 is divided into a plurality of rail regions 30 in the longitudinal direction. In other words, the band portion 12 is provided with a plurality of rail regions 30 that are separated from each other in the longitudinal direction and extend by a predetermined length.

  In the present embodiment, the stopper wall 28 is formed at four positions with a predetermined distance from the base end of the rail portion 15, and the first wall portion 28 a, the second wall portion 28 b, and the third wall portion are sequentially formed from the base end side. A wall portion 28c and a fourth wall portion 28d are provided. In particular, in the present embodiment, these first to fourth wall portions 28a, 28b, 28c, and 28d are projected from the upper surface of the bottom wall portion 16 to the inside of the engagement grooves 21 and 21 in the rail portion 15. A pair is provided, and the side wall portions 18 and 18 and the inward protruding portions 20 and 20 are integrally formed. In addition, in each wall part 28a, 28b, 28c, 28d, the opposing distance between the wall parts 28 and 28 which oppose in the width direction is made substantially equal to the opposing distance A of the inward projecting parts 20 and 20.

  And the rail part 15 is divided | segmented into the four rail area | regions 30 in the longitudinal direction by these wall parts 28a-28d, and the 1st area | region 30a, the 2nd area | region 30b, the 3rd area | region 30c, and the 4th are sequentially from the base end side. The region is defined as 30d. That is, the longitudinal dimension of each rail region 30 is defined by the stopper walls 28 and 28 adjacent in the longitudinal direction.

  In addition, although the longitudinal dimension of these 1st-4th area | regions 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d is not limited at all, in this embodiment, when the band part 12 is wound around the wire harness 50 mentioned later, The first to fourth regions 30a, 30b, 30c, and 30d allow the outer periphery of the wire harness 50 to be divided into substantially equal parts in the circumferential direction.

  A buckle portion 32 as a band base portion is integrally formed at the base end of the band portion 12 having such a structure. As shown in FIG. 5, the buckle portion 32 is formed into a block shape having a rectangular cross section as a whole, and the band portion 12 from the center in the width direction (vertical direction in FIG. 2) of the end surface on the front end side of the buckle portion 32. Has extended. Further, an insertion hole 34 is formed in the center of the buckle portion 32 so as to be able to be inserted through the band portion 12 and penetrates in the longitudinal direction.

  Further, a locking claw 36 is formed on the upper bottom surface of the insertion hole 34 so as to protrude from the center in the width direction, and the locking claw 36 can be elastically deformed to the tip side. In addition, the width direction dimension of the latching claw 36 is substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the facing distance A of the inward projecting portions 20, 20.

  A clip portion 14 is attached to the band portion 12 having the above shape. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the clip portion 14 has a shape in which a clip body 38 at the upper end and an engaging portion 40 at the lower end are connected by a shaft portion 42. Further, a substantially circular dish portion 44 is provided at the lower end of the clip body 38 in plan view, and a shaft portion 42 extends from the lower end of the dish portion 44. In addition, the clip main body 38 of the present embodiment has a shape in which a pair of locking pieces 46 and 46 extend obliquely downward from the upper end, while the engaging portion 40 has a block shape having a rectangular cross section. The shaft portion 42 has a rod shape with a smaller cross-sectional area than the engaging portion 40.

  Here, in the engaging portion 40, the width dimension B in the left-right direction in FIG. 6 is substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the facing distance A of the inward projecting portions 20, 20. On the other hand, in the engaging portion 40, the width dimension C in the left-right direction in FIG. 7 is made larger than the facing distance A between the stopper walls 28, 28 adjacent in the width direction, and both side inner surfaces (engagement) of the rail portion 15. It is made smaller than the distance between opposing surfaces between the both bottom surfaces of the joint grooves 21 and 21).

  The band portion 12 having the above-described shape is formed by integrally forming the band portion 12 other than the inward protruding portions 20 and 20 by injection molding using a hard synthetic resin, and then performing injection molding using the same synthetic resin. It may be manufactured by a method of post-fixing the separately formed inward protrusions 20 and 20. Moreover, the clip part 14 can be suitably formed by injection molding with a synthetic resin similar to the band part 12.

  And the clip part 14 is mounted | worn with any one rail area | region 30 selected from several rail area | region 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d, and the band clip 10 of this embodiment is comprised. . That is, the engaging portion 40 of the clip portion 14 is accommodated in the rail region 30 and placed on the upper surface of the locking tooth 26. Thereby, the upper side from the shaft part 42 of the clip part 14 protrudes from the band part 12 through the opening part 24, and the clip part 14 is a plane formed by the upper surfaces of the plurality of locking teeth 26 in the longitudinal direction of the rail region 30. It is possible to slide on the top. In FIGS. 1 and 2 and FIG. 9 to be described later, a state in which the clip portion 14 is attached to the third region 30c among the plurality of rail regions is indicated by a solid line, and the other rail regions 30a, 30b, and 30d are illustrated. The attached state is indicated by a virtual line.

  Here, when the clip portion 14 is mounted on the rail region 30, the clip portion 14 is aligned with the short side direction of the engaging portion 40 aligned with the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the band portion 12, as shown in FIG. 8. The clip portion 14 is attached to the rail region 30 in a non-normal state by inserting the base end portion thereof from the opening 24. At that time, since the width dimension B in the short side direction of the engaging portion 40 is substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the facing distance A of the inward projecting portions 20, 20, it is smoothly inserted without being caught. be able to.

  Then, when the clip portion 14 is rotated 90 degrees around the central axis from the non-normally attached state, the clip portion 14 is attached to the rail region 30 in the normal state as shown in FIG. In this state, since the width dimension C in the long side direction of the engaging portion 40 is larger than the width dimension (opposite distance between the inward projecting portions 20, 20) A in the opening 24, the clip portion 14. Is prevented from coming out of the rail region 30 through the opening 24. That is, the engaging portion 40 engages with the rail region 30, so that the clip portion 14 cannot be removed from the rail region 30.

  Further, since the width dimension C of the engaging portion 40 is larger than the facing distance A between the stopper walls 28 and 28 adjacent in the width direction, the engaging portion 40 can get over the stopper walls 28 and 28. It has been lost. In other words, the clip portion 14 is slidable on the plane formed by the upper surface of each locking tooth 26 in the longitudinal direction in the third region 30c, and the second wall portions 28b, 28b and the third It is impossible to move over the walls 28c, 28c to the adjacent second region 30b or fourth region 30d.

  In the band clip 10 of this embodiment having such a shape, as shown in FIG. 9, the band portion 12 is wound around a wire harness 50 including a plurality of electric wires 48 and the front end side of the band portion 12 is buckled. It is inserted into the insertion hole 34 of the part 32. As a result, the locking claw 36 is inserted between the inward protruding portions 20 and 20, and the protruding tip of the locking claw 36 is locked between the locking teeth 26 and 26, whereby a plurality of electric wires 48 are connected. It is bound by the band part 12. In addition, by pulling the distal end side of the band portion 12 inserted through the insertion hole 34, the locking claw 36 is elastically deformed toward the distal end side along the inclined surface on the distal end side of the locking tooth 26, and the locking tooth 26 , The locking claw 36 is restored and deformed and is locked between the locking teeth 26, 26. In such a case, even if the band portion 12 is pulled from the base end side, the base end side of the locking tooth 26 is a vertical surface, so that the locking claw 36 cannot get over the locking tooth 26 and the band The part 12 cannot be removed from the insertion hole 34.

  As described above, in the state where the plurality of electric wires 48 are bundled, the tip of the clip portion 14 protruding from the band portion 12 is inserted into the mounting hole 54 of the vehicle body panel 52, so that the wire harness 50 is attached to the vehicle body panel 52. Fixed. The clip main body 38 of the clip portion 14 is inserted into the mounting hole 54 of the vehicle body panel 52, thereby preventing the vehicle body panel 52 and the dish portion 44 from coming into contact with each other and preventing the clip portion 14 from wobbling with respect to the vehicle body panel 52. Has been.

  In the wire harness band clip 10 of the present embodiment configured as described above, the clip portion 14 is provided for any one rail region 30 selected from the plurality of rail regions 30a, 30b, 30c, and 30d. Since it is attached, the position of the clip portion 14 in the longitudinal direction of the band portion 12 can be arbitrarily selected. In addition, since the clip portion 14 is slidable within the selected rail region 30, the band portion 12 is wound around the outer periphery of the wire harness 50 from the periphery of the wire harness 50. The protruding direction can be arbitrarily set.

  Thereby, for example, even when the mounting hole 54 of the vehicle body panel 52 is positioned on the back side of the wire harness 50 when viewed from the user, the buckle portion 32 can be positioned in front of the wire harness 50 when viewed from the user. Thus, the wire 48 can be easily bundled.

  In addition, after the wire harness 50 is attached to the vehicle panel 52 by the band clip 10, the displacement of the clip portion 14 is limited by the contact between the engaging portion 40 and the stopper walls 28 and 28. Thus, the clip portion 14 is prevented from moving from the selected rail region 30 to the adjacent rail region 30, and the wire harness 50 and the vehicle body panel 52 are also moved even when the wire harness 50 is displaced due to vehicle vibration or the like. Relative displacement can be effectively suppressed.

  Next, FIG. 10 shows a cross-sectional view of the band portion 56 constituting the wire harness band clip as the second embodiment of the present invention. In the wire harness band clip of the present embodiment, the clip portion 14 is movable between the adjacent rail regions 30 and 30 ′ when the engaging portion 40 gets over the stopper wall 28. Note that members and portions that are substantially the same as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as those of the first embodiment in the drawings, and detailed description thereof is omitted. Further, the front view and the plan view of the band portion 56, and the shape of the clip portion 14 and the like are the same as those in the first embodiment, and thus illustration thereof is omitted.

  That is, in the present embodiment, in the band portion 56, the stopper walls 28, 28 protruding into the engagement grooves 21, 21 protrude upward from the bottom wall portion 16, and the side wall portions 18, 18 and the inward protruding portions. 20 and 20 are not connected. Further, the stopper walls 28 and 28 are thin enough to be elastically deformable in the longitudinal direction of the band portion 56.

  The band portion 56 having such a shape can be manufactured by the following method, for example. First, after manufacturing the parts other than the inward projecting portions 20 and 20 in the band portion 56 by the same method as in the first embodiment, a slit is formed between the stopper walls 28 and 28 and the side wall portions 18 and 18. Thereafter, the inward projecting portions 20, 20 separately formed on the upper ends of the side wall portions 18, 18 are post-fixed. By creating the band portion 56 by such a method, the stopper walls 28, 28 protruded in the rail portion 15 can be elastically deformed in the longitudinal direction with the connection position with the bottom wall portion 16 as a fulcrum.

  Further, FIGS. 11A to 11C sequentially show the operation in which the engaging portion 40 moves over the stopper wall 28 and moves between the adjacent rail regions 30 and 30 ′. That is, FIG. 11A shows a state in which the clip portion 14 is located in the left rail region 30 in the drawing. From this state, for example, when the front end portion of the clip portion 14 is gripped and pulled to the right side in the drawing, the engaging portion 40 and the stopper wall 28 come into contact with each other, and further pulled, as shown in FIG. As shown, the stopper wall 28 is elastically deformed in accordance with the tensile force of the clip portion 14. As a result, the engaging portion 40 can get over the stopper wall 28. When the engaging portion 40 gets over the stopper wall 28, as shown in FIG. It is possible to move from the inner left rail region 30 to the right rail region 30 '.

  Even in the band clip for a wire harness of this embodiment having such a structure, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be exhibited. In particular, in this embodiment, since the clip portion 14 is movable between the adjacent rail regions 30 and 30 ′, the rail region 30 can be changed even when the rail region 30 is changed after the clip portion 14 is attached. Therefore, the labor of the operator can be reduced. Thereby, the protrusion direction of the clip part 14 can be set more easily in the circumferential direction of the wire harness, and the work of fixing the wire harness to the vehicle body panel can be performed more efficiently.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited by the specific descriptions, and is implemented in a mode in which various changes, corrections, improvements, and the like are added based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art. Any of such embodiments can be included in the scope of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the stopper walls 28a, 28b, 28c, 28d are provided at four locations in the longitudinal direction of the band portion 12, so that each rail region 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d has a predetermined length dimension. However, the present invention is not limited to such a mode. That is, as shown in FIG. 12, many stopper walls 28 may be provided in the rail portion 15, and the longitudinal dimension of each rail region 30 may be set short. Thereby, the displacement allowable amount of the clip part 14 in the longitudinal direction of the rail area | region 30 can be restrained small. Therefore, for example, when the wire harness is fixed to the vehicle body panel by the band clip of this aspect, even when the wire harness is displaced with respect to the vehicle body panel due to the vibration of the vehicle, the relative displacement amount between the wire harness and the vehicle body panel is reduced. Can be suppressed. In this aspect, the engaging portion 40 may be able to get over the stopper wall 28 as in the second embodiment, but the engaging portion 40 may be positioned over the stopper wall 28 as in the first embodiment. By making it impossible to get over, it is possible to prevent the clip portion 14 from unintentionally moving to the adjacent rail region, so that the effect of suppressing the relative displacement between the wire harness and the vehicle body panel can be further enhanced.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the rail part 15 extended continuously in the longitudinal direction of the band part 12, it is not limited to this aspect. That is, as shown in FIGS. 13A and 13B, a plurality of receiving recesses 60 are formed on the upper surface of the band portion 58 so as to be separated from each other in the longitudinal direction and extend by a predetermined length. Region 62 may be configured. The band portion 58 in the present embodiment is formed integrally with the upper portion of the side wall portions 18 and 18 at the position where the accommodating recess 60 is formed after integrally forming the band portion 58 other than the inward protruding portions 20 and 20 by injection molding using a hard synthetic resin. It can be formed by post-fixing the inward protrusions 20, 20. In this embodiment, the plurality of locking teeth 26 are provided on the lower surface of the bottom wall portion 16 in the band portion 58, and the clip portion 14 slides on the upper surface of the bottom wall portion 16. Thereby, when the clip part 14 slides, a possibility that the engaging part 40 and the locking tooth 26 may be caught can be avoided.

  The effect similar to that of the first embodiment can also be exhibited in the wire harness band clip of this aspect having such a shape. For this reason, in the present invention, the rail portion extending continuously in the longitudinal direction in the band portion is not essential, and the rail regions may be provided independently of each other. However, by adopting a configuration in which a rail portion that continuously extends in the longitudinal direction is provided in the band portion and a plurality of rail regions are formed by providing a stopper wall in the rail portion, the band clip according to the present invention can be used. Not only can the structure be simplified, but also the possibility that the positions of the plurality of rail regions in the band portion and the clip portions attached to the rail region in the width direction and the height direction are shifted from each other can be reduced.

  In the above embodiment, the clip portion 14 is rotated 90 degrees around the central axis from the non-normal mounting state as shown in FIG. 8 to shift to the normal mounting state shown in FIG. On the other hand, the clip portion 14 can be extracted from the rail region 30 in the non-normal mounting state, while the clip portion 14 cannot be extracted from the rail region 30 in the normal mounting state. Therefore, in the above-described embodiment, whether the clip portion 14 can be extracted from the rail region 30 or not can be switched by rotating the clip portion 14. As described above, since the clip portion 14 can be easily assembled and removed from the rail region 30, a plurality of types of clip portions having different distal end shapes and having an engagement portion at the proximal end portion are prepared. By doing so, it is also possible to select a clip portion having a shape corresponding to the mounting hole of the vehicle body panel and attach it to the rail region.

  However, the method of attaching the clip portion to the rail region is not limited to the above-described method. For example, the band portion is pushed and widened so as to widen the opening above the rail region, and through the widened opening. You may make it insert the engaging part in a clip part in a rail area | region.

  In the embodiment, the engagement grooves 21 and 21 are opened inward in the width direction of the band portion 12 in the rail portion 15, but the engagement grooves are shown in FIG. 1 of JP-A-7-67232 and FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, it may be opened below the band part or outward in the width direction, and the engaging part of the clip part may have a shape corresponding to these engaging grooves. Even in such a case, for example, a plurality of rail regions can be formed by providing a stopper wall protruding in the engagement groove. However, by opening the engagement groove below the band part or outward in the width direction, the engagement part of the clip part is shaped to wrap around from the outside of the band part. By making it open, it is avoided that an engaging part turns around from the outer side of a band part, and the width dimension of the whole band clip can be restrained small.
