A portion 53 is provided. The rotation fulcrum receiving portion 53 is provided extending from the side surface portion 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cables 7, that is, toward the adjacent cable guide 5 (right direction in the drawing), and forms two grooves 55. It is composed of a plate shape.

  The groove width t <b> 2 of the groove portion 55 is set slightly larger than the wall thickness t <b> 1 of the rotation fulcrum portion 51 of the adjacent cable guide 5. Further, the rotation fulcrum receiving part 53 has a connecting pin hole 54 penetrating the groove 55. When the connecting pin hole 54 is fitted to the connecting pin 52 of the adjacent cable guide 5, the connected cable guide 5 can be rotated. In addition, the center 51a in the thickness direction of the thickness t1 of the rotation fulcrum 51 and the groove center 55a of the groove width t2 of the groove 55 are on the same straight line.

As shown in FIG.5 (b), the longitudinal direction both ends of the cables 7 of the upper surface part 11 of the cable guide 5 have the latching | locking part 40A and the latching | locking part 40B, respectively. Moreover, the longitudinal direction both ends of the cables 7 of the lower surface portion 12 of the cable guide 5 become a locking portion 41C and a locking portion 41D, respectively.

  As shown in FIG. 5 (c), before the cable retainer 6 is fitted to the opening 5e of the cable guide 5, the cables 7 are connected to the arrow H as the insertion direction of the cables 7 through the opening 5e. It can be inserted from the direction. As described above, the direction of the arrow H that can be inserted is a direction orthogonal to the bending surface of the cable protection guide device 4 as a surface parallel to the drawing of FIG. Therefore, since the insertion direction of the cables 7 can be performed from the direction orthogonal to the bent surface of the cable protection guide device 4, improvement in insertion workability can be expected.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the partition portions 14-1 and 14-2 provided at a right angle from the side surface portion 13 are elastic in the direction of arrow T shown in FIG. Have The claw portion 56 as a latching portion formed at the tip of the partition portions 14-1 and 14-2 has an inclined structure by an inclined portion 56a, and receives and fits into the long hole 64 of the cable holding portion 6 shown in FIG.

The distance m2 between the claw portion 56 and the respective tip portions of the upper surface portion 11 and the lower surface portion 12 is set to be slightly larger than the plate thickness m1 of the cable pressing portion 6. Thereby, the cable holding part 6 can maintain a fitting state by the nail | claw part 56 by fitting from the opening part 5e side. As described above, the arrow H direction as the insertion direction of the cables 7 is a bent surface formed by the bent portion R1 of the cable protection guide device 4, that is, a direction orthogonal to the arrow D direction as the sliding direction of the internal unit 3. is there.

FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the connecting portion of the cable protection guide device according to the first embodiment. In the figure, the connecting pin 52 and the connecting pin hole 54 as connecting means in the rotating fulcrum portion 51 of one cable guide 5 and the rotating fulcrum portion receiving portion 53 of the other cable guide 5 are horizontally shown. It is the cut | disconnected cross section. At the tip of the rotation fulcrum 51, a cylindrical connecting pin 52 is provided vertically in the figure. The plate-like rotation fulcrum portion 51 is inserted into the groove portion 55 of the rotation fulcrum portion receiving portion 53, and the upper and lower connection pins 52 of the rotation fulcrum portion 51 are fitted into the connection pin holes 54. The connecting pin 52 is provided with an inclined portion 52a for easy fitting.
When connecting the cable protection guide device 4, the operator holds the two cable guides 5 to be connected and inserts one rotation fulcrum 51 along the groove 55 of the other cable guide 5 in the direction of arrow P. When the insertion is continued, the inclined portion 52 a of the connecting pin 52 collides with the end of the groove portion 55. When inserted with further force, the rotation fulcrum receiving portion 53 is pushed outward from the substantially semicircular tip.

  When the connection pin 52 falls into the connection pin hole 54 of the rotation fulcrum portion receiving portion 53, the rotation fulcrum portion receiving portion 53 returns to its original shape. In this way, the two cable guides 5 are connected by the connecting pin 52 and the connecting pin hole 54 to generate a link mechanism. The cable protection guide device 4 having a desired length is formed by continuing these operations only a plurality of times.

  FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a cable housing state of the cable protection guide device according to the first embodiment. The cables 7 are inserted into the three-layer structure formed by the upper surface portion 11, the lower surface portion 12, and the partition portions 14-1 and 14-2 of the cable guide 5 from the opening 5e side indicated by the arrow H. For example, the A cable 7-1 is inserted into the upper layer space 61 formed by the upper surface part 11 and the partition part 14-1. Similarly, the B cable 7-2 is inserted into the middle layer space 62 formed by the partition portion 14-1 and the partition portion 14-2, and the lower layer space 63 formed by the partition portion 14-2 and the lower surface portion 12 is inserted. C cable 7-3 can be inserted through the cable.

  After these A cable 7-1 to C cable 7-3 are inserted, the cable holding portion 6 is attached. When the long hole 64 of the cable pressing portion 6 is fitted in the claw portion 56 of the partition portion 14 of the cable guide 5, the partition portion 14 bends in the direction of the arrow T, and the claw portion 56 appears on the surface of the cable pressing portion 6. . When the claw portion 56 passes through the long hole 64, the partition portion 14 is not bent and the fitting of the cable pressing portion 6 is finished. As a result, the cable retainer 6 itself is prevented from coming off, and the previously inserted cables 7-1 to 7-3 do not come out from the opening 5e of the cable guide 5.

  Depending on the rigidity of the cables 7 (wires and covering conditions), the cable retainer 6 can be thinned and attached. For example, the cable holding part 6 is fitted to the two connected cable guides 5, and the cable holding part 6 is not fitted into the third cable guide 5 adjacent thereto. In this relationship, the cable protection guide device 4 is configured. Thereby, there exists an effect that the number of members and a fitting man-hour can be reduced.

  A power supply system from a power supply unit or control unit (not shown) to the internal unit 3 is an A cable 7-1, and a signal system connecting various sensors in the internal unit 3 and the control board is a C cable 7-3. As a result, the cables are separated from each other, so that it is possible to eliminate the influence of erroneous detection due to noise from the A cable 7-1 of the power supply system to the C cable 7-3 which is a signal system. Note that the power supply cable wire is often set thicker than the signal cable wire. Therefore, it is preferable to insert the A cable 7-1 of the power supply system on the bent outer peripheral surface side of the cable protection guide device 4 having a large curvature radius. Note that both ends of the cable protection guide device 4 and the cables 7 that house the cables 7 are fixed to the casing 2 and the internal unit 3 described below by the stoppers 80.

  Next, an example in which one end side of the cable protection guide device 4 is fixed to the internal unit 3 will be described. FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of fixing the cable protection guide device according to the first embodiment. For example, instead of the internal unit side stopper 8 of the internal unit 3 shown in FIG. 3, a stopper 80 is used as shown in FIG. The stopper 80 is provided integrally with a cable presser 6-1 similar to the cable presser 6 described above, and the cable presser 6-1 is provided with long holes 84-1 and 84-2, and an internal The unit 3 is fixed with fixing screws 82. The claw portions 56 of the partition portions 14-1 and 14-2 are hooked on the long holes 84-1 and 84-2. A stopper 80 is incorporated in the cable guide 5-1 at the end of the cable protection guide device 4. Thereby, there exists an effect that the number of use of the cable holder 6 can be reduced.

FIG. 10 is an explanatory view showing a first modification of the cable guide according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 10A, the cable guide 500 as the link frame in the first modification is formed by integrally forming the cable pressing portion 560. In the first modification shown in FIG. 10, the cable pressing portion 560 is integrally formed with the upper surface portion 11 of the cable guide 500, but may be integrally formed with the lower surface portion 12 of the cable guide 500. .
One partition portion 514 is provided at a right angle from the side surface portion 13. As in the first embodiment, the partition portion 514 has a claw portion 556 as a latching portion. Further, the cable holding portion 560 is provided with only one long hole 564. Other parts are the same as those of the cable guide 5 described above.

  As shown in FIG. 10 (b), there is a rotating hinge portion 504 of the cable pressing portion 560 at the coupling portion between the cable guide 500 and the cable pressing portion 560. The rotating hinge 504 is manufactured by integral resin molding using a synthetic resin as a thin portion. The cable holder 560 can rotate in the direction of arrow M around the rotary hinge 505 as a rotation axis, and can close the opening 500e. In the housing space for housing the cables 7 in this case, an upper layer space 164 is formed by the upper surface portion 11 and the partition portion 514, and a lower layer space 165 is formed by the partition portion 514 and the lower surface portion 12.
