[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a wire harness mounting clip provided on a wire harness in order to maintain a layout position of a wire harness provided in an automobile or office automation equipment such as a copying machine and a personal computer. It is about.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A clip for attaching a wire harness has a shape in which a clip body having a locking head which is fitted in a locking hole formed in a vehicle body or the like in a non-return manner is erected on a clip base. The base is attached and fixed to the outer periphery of the wire harness, and the protruding locking head is fitted into a locking hole of a vehicle body or the like so that the wiring harness is arranged and maintained in a proper posture.

[0003] However, the locking head of the wire harness attachment clip which is attached to the wire harness in advance and the vehicle body side
Since it is practically difficult to exactly match the position of the locking holes on the device side with one-touch “snaps”, the clip body is slightly moved with respect to the clip base fixed to the outer periphery of the wire harness. The actual opening is 1-1165, which can be slid freely by the stroke described above, and the locking head of the clip body side can be aligned with the locking hole of the vehicle body or the like.
No. 22 and Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-10747 are known.

[0004] Among the above-mentioned known examples in which the locking head can be positioned, the former disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 1-152222 is a band wound around the outer periphery of a wire harness. A part of the portion is formed as a clip base, and the clip body is slidable with respect to the clip base, and the clip body merely moves linearly on a circumference along the outer periphery of the wire harness. In the latter Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-10747, the clip body is simply moved linearly with respect to a clip base fixed to the outer periphery of the wire harness in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the wire harness.

That is, in these known examples, the adjustment movement allowed for positioning the locking head of the clip on the wire harness side in the locking hole of the vehicle body or the like is different from the movement on a single line. Because of the restraint, there is a case where the displacement of the locking hole and the locking head that currently exist when arranging the wire harness cannot be absorbed. In such a case, the mounting position of the clip base itself needs to be changed. There is a problem in the wiring harness arrangement and maintenance work. The present invention provides a wire harness mounting clip that solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art.

[0006]

The wire harness mounting clip of the present invention, which solves the above technical problems, comprises a clip base mounted on the outer periphery of the wire harness, and a locking head for a locking hole on the mating side. The clip body is composed of a clip body assembled with the clip base, and the clip body has a columnar body erected on a substrate portion, and the clip base holds the substrate portion slidably in a biaxial direction on an allowable slide surface. A plate portion and a flexible retaining tongue for holding down the upper surface of the substrate portion on the holding plate portion, wherein the retaining tongue is provided between the opposing distal end portions to hold the substrate portion. The structure is characterized by having a space portion that allows reception on the plate portion and has a required multiple larger than the body diameter of the columnar body portion ”.

[0007]

In the wire harness mounting clip of the present invention having the above-described structure, the base portion of the clip main body having the columnar body erected is biaxially slidably combined on the allowable sliding surface of the clip base holding plate portion. A space between the retaining tongue for retaining the substrate portion in the combined posture and a space between the tips of the retaining tongue for securing the allowable sliding surface (a space having a required multiple larger than the body diameter of the columnar body). ), The board portion of the clip main body on the holding plate portion can be biaxially slid with a flat surface until at least the columnar body portion is suppressed and comes into contact with the tongue piece, and can be slid in the biaxial direction. In any position in the inside, the retaining tongue prevents the clip from coming off from the clip base, thereby ensuring the clip function. Since the locking head is linked to the sliding movement of the columnar body, the positioning of the locking hole and the locking head is improved to two-dimensional adjustment.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a detailed description will be given based on embodiments. Referring to FIG. 1 showing an embodiment of the present invention applied to a wire harness for an automobile, a wire harness mounting clip according to the present invention is a columnar columnar body erected in the center of a disk-shaped substrate portion 5. 6, a clip body 1 having a locking head 3 at the upper end

Then, the clip body 2 is combined with the clip base 2, and the clip base 2 is separated by a separate wrapping band 8.
The wire harness 12 is attached and fixed to the outer periphery, and the locking head 3 of the clip body 1 is fitted in the locking hole 14 of the vehicle body 13 in a non-return shape so that the arrangement posture of the wire harness 12 is adjusted and held. Has become.

More specifically, the clip base 2 has a frame portion 10 whose base 10A rises from the outer edge of the disc-shaped holding plate portion 7 and extends in the center direction in parallel with the holding plate portion 7. In the circular window 17 at the front end, there are provided two pairs of opposing flexible tongue pieces 9 divided by four radial slits 18. The clip body 1 is inserted into the gap between the frame 10 having the holding tongue 9 and the holding plate 7.
The substrate unit 5 can be slid in a biaxial direction on an allowable slide surface described later.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1B, the holding tongue piece 9 elastically bends to allow the board portion 5 to be inserted on the holding plate portion 7 and to any position on the allowable sliding surface. also is part 5 is present, to suppress the upper surface of the substrate 5, to prevent the omission of the base plate 5, and have the requisite elasticity and shape having a space portion of the required diameter D ₁ between the front end portion ing. The space diameter D ₁ between the distal end portions of the holding tongue pieces 9 is the clip body 1.
