Description

The present invention relates to a mounting structure for mounting a long object such as a wire harness made of bundled electric wires to an object to be mounted such as a protector, a wire harness with a protector, and a protector.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Electrical equipment installed in automobiles and the like are connected to other electrical equipment and power supply devices via wire harnesses made up of bundles of covered electric wires to form electric circuits. Such a harness is inserted into the protector, the wiring direction is regulated, and the harness is protected by the protector.

Additionally, in electrical circuits, wire harnesses are often connected to a terminal block that holds multiple busbars with a busbar holder, or to an electrical connection box such as a junction box or relay box that has a board mounted inside. be.

Furthermore, as shown in Patent Document 1, the wire harness is sometimes attached to a protector, a terminal block, an electrical connection box, or the like using a cable tie.
For example, in Patent Document 1, in a protector that houses a wire harness inside, a branch line is attached with a binding band to a location where the branch line branches from the main line. It is said that this makes it possible to securely route the branch lines leading out from the protector.

In this way, a cable tie that attaches a long object such as a wire harness to an object to be attached such as a protector, terminal block, or electrical connection box has a band-shaped band portion and a base end in the longitudinal direction of the band portion. It is equipped with a lock part that is connected in series and locks the band part that is inserted in one direction, and the band part that passes through the insertion hole provided in the object to be installed is wrapped around the outer circumference of the elongated object to attach it. It will be attached to the object.

At this time, since the band portion of the binding band passes through the insertion hole provided in the object to be attached, the attachment position with respect to the object to be attached does not change. However, the attached binding band is not restricted in the winding direction, and may move in the winding direction due to vibration or external force.

In this way, when the attached cable tie moves in the winding direction, the lock part, which was placed at a predetermined position in the winding direction, protrudes radially outward from the band part. There was a risk of problems such as interference with surrounding parts or unintentional contact during service work.
