In the known binding device 1 described above, when the wire 4 is thick, as shown in FIG. 1A, the center line 7 of the wire is changed to the mounting center line 8 of the binding device 1. In some cases, the attachment was unstable due to misalignment. Further, when the wire 4 is thin, as shown in FIG. 1B, the fastening of the band portion 5 may be insufficient. Tokunosho 5
In the binding band described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-28581, a specially shaped hinge is formed near the base of the band portion to bind the wires. The thing described in this publication is only a tying band, not a tying tool having a base portion and a panel mounting portion therebelow. Therefore, when the wire material 4 is thick, the center line of the wire material deviates from the mounting center line of the tying material 1. Does not solve the problem. In the case of a thin wire, the wire is improved from that of FIG. 1B, but still does not exhibit a binding force enough to prevent the wire from shifting in the longitudinal direction.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a binding device for a wire or the like which can be securely attached to a panel regardless of whether the elongated member such as a wire is thin or thick.
