In particular, the present invention relates to a clip for holding a wire harness or the like in a predetermined wiring state by being attached to a rib formed on a resin part such as an instrument panel of a vehicle or a flange formed on an end of a steel plate body.

  As a clip for a wire harness, for example, a clip disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-55835 (Patent Document 1) is known. This clip is composed of a clip main body that is a portion held by the rib of the clip mounting member and a support portion that is integrally formed with the clip main body and can support wiring such as a wire harness. The basic schematic shape of the main body is a U-shape having an opening, and is formed by incorporating a metal inner clip inside the outer resin clip main body. Then, a pair of locking claws formed on the metal inner clip is clamped and locked by a rib of a clip mounting member inserted into the inside of the clip body from the opening, whereby the clip body is clipped. It is held by the mounting member.

FIG. 11 shows a front view of a clip having substantially the same configuration as the clip disclosed in Patent Document 1. In FIG. As shown in FIG. 11, the clip main body 50 has a pair of leg pieces 52 coupled so as to be U-shaped as a whole, and a locking claw 53 extending inward from the U-shaped opening portion.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-55835

  By the way, the clip disclosed by patent document 1 can be carried in by the vehicle maker in the state where multiple clips were attached to the predetermined part of the wire harness by winding the harness support part 54 around the outer periphery of the wire harness with a tape or the like. Many. In the old type clip shown as the prior art of the clip of the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, there is a gap at the tip of the locking claw 60 of the inner clip 56, so that such a wire harness is being conveyed, etc. In this case, the electric wire may be caught between the opening 64 of the clip main body 50 and the leg piece 52, and the film of the electric wire may be damaged by the locking claw 60 or the like, or in the extreme case, the wire may be broken. On the other hand, in the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, since the locking teeth 62 formed at the tip of the locking claw 60 are engaged with each other, the locking claw 60 has no gap, It is possible to surely prevent the electric wire from entering the inside of the clip, and it is possible to prevent the coating of the electric wire from being damaged by the locking claw 60 of the metal inner clip.

By the way, when attaching a wire harness to an instrument panel of a vehicle, it is performed by locking a plurality of clips attached to the outer periphery of the wire harness at predetermined positions on the panel, but the attachment position to the panel is shifted. If the wire harness is slackened or attached while the wire harness is pulled, the attachment position needs to be adjusted. Therefore, it is possible to confirm the mounting state of the wire harness in a state where adjustment of the mounting position is easy and easy to adjust the mounting position before the main locking, and to hold it when inserting it into the rib. It is desirable to be able to do so.
However, the conventional clip for a wire harness adopts a method in which the rib of the mounting member is pushed into the opening 64 of the clip at a stroke and sandwiched, and even in the clip disclosed in Patent Document 1, the rib is drawn from the opening 64 at once. There was no temporary fixing function because it was pushed and pinched. Therefore, when the mounting position is inappropriate, it is necessary to perform the main fastening again in the mounting position correction work.
Further, in the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, since the locking teeth 62 formed at the distal end portion of the locking claw 60 of the metal inner clip 56 are set to engage with each other, the clip is attached to the clip mounting member. When engaging with the rib, it is necessary to deform the locking claw 60 more greatly than with an old type clip having a gap at the tip of the locking claw 60. There arises a problem that the fitting resistance increases.

The present invention is proposed as a solution to the above-described conventional problems, and the problem to be solved by the present invention is to prevent the wiring from entering the clip and to attach the clip to the clip mounting member. At this time, the clip is provided with a temporary fixing function to facilitate the mounting operation.
Furthermore, it is intended to prevent the wiring from entering the clip while reducing the attachment resistance when the clip is attached to the clip attachment member.

In order to solve the above problems, the clip according to the present invention takes the following means.
First, a clip according to a first aspect of the present invention supports a clip body that is a portion held by a rib of a clip mounting member and a wiring such as a wire harness that is formed integrally with the clip body. The clip body has a basic U-shape with an opening, and a pair of locking claws integrally extend from the positions of both ends of the U-shaped opening toward the inside. The inner end of the locking claw is expanded and deformed when the rib of the clip mounting member for holding the clip is inserted, and is held between the rib by the spring pressure. it is, the clip body has a configured format as a state in which the metal of the inner clip body which is disposed inside of the outer clip body and the outer clip body made of resin are superimposed inside and outside, The tree The inner tips of the pair of locking claws of the outer clip body made of plastic are arranged in a free state before the clip mounting member is inserted, and are connected to the opening side of the locking claws. There is a space for temporary fixing of the clip mounting member in the portion, and the pair of locking claws of the outer clip body are cut and raised inward from both sandwiching pieces of the inner clip body, respectively. A clip disposed so as to be covered from the outside with respect to the locking claw, wherein the inner front end portion is in contact with a central portion of the locking claw of the inner clip body at a base portion thereof It is characterized by that.
According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the distal end portion of the locking claw of the resin clip is disposed in a free form state before the clip mounting member is inserted, the clip is connected to the wire harness. When being transported while being attached to a wiring such as the like, it is possible to prevent a part of the wires of the wiring from entering the clip. In addition, since a space for temporary fixing is provided, the initial resistance when the rib is inserted into the opening for temporary fixing is reduced, and when the rib is inserted into the opening, the rib is made of resin. The clip body is temporarily attached to the rib by being sandwiched by the expansion deformation of the portion facing the void of the outer clip of the outer clip and further by the deformation of the inner tip of the locking claw of the resin outer clip. Stopped.

Next, a second invention of the present invention is the clip according to the first invention, wherein the pair of engagements of the metal inner clip body with respect to the pair of locking claws of the resin outer clip body. The pawl is inscribed and arranged.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, the resin is sandwiched by the expansion deformation of the portion facing the void of the outer clip and the expansion deformation of the inner end portion of the locking claw of the resin outer clip. The clip body is temporarily fixed to the rib. At this time, since the pair of latching claws of the metal inner clip body is inscribed with the pair of latching claws of the resin outer clip body, When the facing portion is expanded and deformed, the base portion of the locking claw of the metal clip inscribed in the resin clip is also expanded and deformed. Further, when the inner tip portion of the locking claw of the resin outer clip is expanded and deformed, the central portion of the locking claw of the metal clip inscribed therein is also expanded and deformed. As a result, the insertion resistance at the time of temporary fixing can be increased and the holding force by temporary fixing can be increased as compared with the case where temporary fixing is performed only by deformation of the resin outer clip.

Next, a third invention of the present invention is the clip according to the second invention, wherein a projection piece is formed at the inner tip of the engaging claw of the resin outer clip, and the projection piece Is arranged in a state having a gap with respect to the pair of locking claws of the metal inner clip body, and when the clip mounting member is inserted by this gap, the protruding piece contacts the inner clip body. It is characterized by elastic deformation until contact.
According to the third aspect of the present invention, when the protruding piece at the front end of the locking claw of the resin outer clip is expanded and deformed, only the protruding piece initially becomes the locking claw of the metal inner clip. The projection is deformed until it comes into contact with the central portion, and thereafter, the projecting piece and the central portion of the latching claw of the metal clip inscribed therein are expanded and deformed together. As a result, the initial resistance at the time of temporary fixing is reduced as compared with the case where the inner end of the locking claw of the resin outer clip and the locking claw of the inner metal clip are simultaneously deformed and temporarily fixed. be able to.

Next, a fourth invention of the present invention is the clip according to any one of the first to third inventions, wherein the inner tip portions of the pair of locking claws of the metal inner clip body are clips. In the free form state before the mounting member is inserted, the mounting member is arranged in a state having an interval.
According to this 4th invention, the inner front-end | tip part of a pair of latching claw of a metal inner clip main body is arrange | positioned as a state with the space | interval. This reduces the mounting resistance when attaching the clip to the clip mounting member compared to the case where the tip of the pair of locking claws of the metal inner clip body is joined to prevent the entry of the wiring. You can plan. That is, compared to the case where the tip of the metal locking claw is joined and the rib of the clip mounting member is inserted, the spring deformation of the locking claw is less when inserted with a gap, Insertion resistance is small. In the case of the present invention, the prevention of the entry of a part of the wires into the inside of the clip is performed by arranging the tips of the latching claws of the resin clip in a joined state as described above. The deformation resistance of the resin locking claw is smaller than that of the metal locking claw.

Next, a fifth invention of the present invention is the clip according to any one of the first to fourth inventions, wherein the inner end portions of the pair of locking claws of the metal inner clip body Comb-shaped locking teeth are formed, and the comb teeth of the locking teeth are arranged in such a manner that their teeth and grooves correspond to each other.
According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, the teeth of the comb-like locking teeth formed at the inner tip of the locking claw and the grooves are set and disposed as corresponding positional relationships. As a result, when the clip body is permanently fixed to the rib, the comb teeth are alternately pressed against the rib on the opposite side of the rib, and the locking force at the time of final locking is greater than when the locking teeth are not set. Can be increased.

According to each invention of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.
First, according to the first invention described above, since the distal end portion of the locking claw of the resin outer clip is arranged to be joined, it is possible that a part of the wires enter the clip. Can be prevented.
In addition, a space for temporary fixing is provided in the back side of the opening side of the locking claw of the resin outer clip, and the clip is temporarily fixed to the rib of the clip mounting member by the space for this temporary fixing. Therefore, the mounting work can be facilitated.

  Next, according to the second invention described above, the pair of latching claws of the metal inner clip body are disposed in contact with the pair of latching claws of the resin outer clip body. Compared with the case where temporary fixing is mainly performed by deformation of an outer clip made of resin, the insertion resistance at the time of temporary fixing can be increased, and the holding force by temporary fixing can be increased.

  Next, according to the third invention described above, the inner end of the engaging claw of the resin outer clip and the engaging claw of the inner metal clip are simultaneously deformed and temporarily fixed. The initial resistance at the time of temporary fixing can be reduced.

  Next, according to the above-described fourth invention, the inner tip portions of the pair of locking claws of the metal inner clip body are disposed with a space therebetween, so that the conventional metal inner Compared to the case where the tips of the pair of locking claws of the clip body are joined to prevent the entry of the wiring, it is possible to reduce the attachment resistance when the clip is attached to the clip attachment member.

  Next, according to the fifth aspect described above, the positional relationship between the teeth of the comb-like locking teeth and the grooves formed at the inner ends of the pair of locking claws of the metal inner clip body corresponds to each other. When the clip body is permanently fixed to the rib, the comb teeth are pressed against the rib alternately on the opposite side of the rib, and the comb-shaped locking teeth are not set. Compared to the case, it is possible to increase the locking force at the time of actual locking.

Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a wire harness clip according to an embodiment of the present invention. The clip 10 includes a clip main body 11 and a support portion 20. The clip body 11 is a part for attaching the clip 10 to the rib of the clip attachment member in a clamped state. The support part 20 is composed of a belt 21 and a buckle 22 and is a part for attachment to a wire harness. The clip body 11 and the support portion 20 are integrally formed.
FIG. 2 shows the overall structure of the clip main body 11, and the basic shape of the whole is a U-shape with one end opened. The clip body 11 includes a resin-made outer clip body 12 disposed on the outer side and a metal inner clip body 30 disposed on the inner side, and the clip bodies 12 and 30 are overlapped on the inside and the outside. It is arranged and constituted.
As shown in FIG. 2, the resin outer clip body 12 includes a leg piece 13 formed in a U-shape and a locking claw 14 extending inward from a U-shaped opening 26. I have. On the other hand, the metal inner clip body 30 is incorporated inside the U-shaped leg pieces 13, and the inner clip body 30 is coupled so as to be U-shaped as a whole as shown in FIG. A pair of sandwiching pieces 32 is provided.

3 to 6 show a metal inner clip body 30. FIG. 3 is a plan view, FIG. 4 is a front view, FIG. 5 is a right side view, and FIG. The external appearance perspective view seen from the direction of is shown. As shown in these drawings, the latching claws 36 are integrally formed on the sandwiching pieces 32 of the inner clip body 30 in a state where they are cut and raised inward.
In addition, comb-shaped locking teeth 38 are formed at the distal ends of the locking claws 36 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the locking teeth 38 of the both locking claws 36 are set so that the teeth and the grooves correspond to each other. As shown in FIG. The front ends of the locking teeth 38 do not wrap without entering the groove portion of the locking teeth 38, and the ends of both teeth are abutted so as to be aligned. A gap may be provided at the tip of the locking tooth 38.

The inner clip body 30 is formed with notch-shaped engaging grooves 34 on both side edges of the both sandwiching pieces 32 in order to engage with the resin outer clip body 12.
Engaging portions 16 that can be engaged with the engaging grooves 34 of the inner clip body 30 are formed on the inner side of the leg pieces 13 in the outer clip body 12. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the distal ends of the both engaging portions 16 are engaged with the inner sides of the sandwiching pieces 32 in the inner clip body 30 in a state where the engaging portion 16 and the engaging groove 34 are engaged. ing.
As shown in FIG. 2, the locking claws 14 of the outer clip body 12 are disposed so as to cover the locking claws 36 of the inner clip body 30 from the outside. A projection piece 15 is formed at the tip of the projection piece 15, and the projection piece 15 is in contact with the central portion of the locking claw 36 of the inner clip body 30 at the base portion. There is a gap, and the protruding pieces 15 are abutted with each other without a gap at the tip.
Further, the locking claw 14 and the protruding piece 15 form a temporary fixing space 24 at the back of the opening 26.

The outer clip body 12 and the buckle 22 of the support portion 20 are integrally formed of resin. The belt 21 is also preferably formed by integral molding together. The inner clip body 30 made of metal is separately configured so as to be located inside the both leg pieces 13 of the outer clip body 12 and inscribed in the both locking claws 14 of the outer clip body 12. It is assembled from the side so that the locking claw 36 is positioned. As a result, the engaging portion 16 of the outer clip body 12 and the engaging groove 34 of the inner clip body 30 are engaged as described above. In this embodiment, since the engaging grooves 34 are formed on both side edges of the sandwiching pieces 32, attention should be paid to the directionality of the inner clip body 30 when the inner clip body 30 is assembled to the outer clip body 12. There is no need.
Further, since the outer clip main body 12 made of resin has the protruding pieces 15 at the front ends of the locking claws 14 abutted with each other without a gap, the insertion force when the inner clip main body 30 is assembled to the outer clip main body 12. Is reduced. Further, the completed state of the clip main body 11 after assembly is also forced by the spring of the inner clip main body 30, so that it is easy to stabilize.

The clip 10 having the above-described configuration is attached to the wire harness by winding the belt 21 around the wire harness and fixing the belt 21 with the buckle 22. In addition, with respect to a wire harness, the clip 10 is each attached to the predetermined several places along the length direction.
The wire harness usually has branch lines (electric wires) at both ends or in the middle, and one or more wires enter between the leg pieces 13 of the outer clip body 12 during transportation of the wire harness. There is a case to try. In such a case, even if the electric wire enters between the both locking claws 14 of the outer clip body 12, the resin protrusion 15 formed at the tip of the locking claw 14 is abutted without a gap. Therefore, the electric wire is reliably received by the protruding piece 15. This reliably prevents the electric wire from entering the inside of the clip body 11 from the opening 26 of the clip 10 and prevents the electric wire from biting into the inner side of the sandwiching pieces 32 of the inner clip body 30. Troubles such as damage or disconnection can be solved.

  FIG. 7 shows a temporarily fixed state of the clip 10 to the rib 40 of the clip mounting member, and FIG. 8 shows a fully fixed state. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, when the wire harness is wired to the vehicle body or the like, the rib 40 of the clip mounting member on the body side protrudes from the opening 26 of the clip main body 11 to the protruding piece of the resin clip. 15 and the latching claw 36 of the metal inner clip body 30 are inserted between the sandwiching pieces 32 while pushing open. As a result, the locking claw 36 of the metal inner clip body 30 and the protruding piece 15 of the resin outer clip body 12 are respectively locked to the ribs 40 of the clip mounting member, and the clip body 11 is held on the clip mounting member side. The wire harness is held in a predetermined wiring state. The rib 40 is inserted into the clip body 11 in the order of temporary fixing and permanent fixing.

Temporary fixing is performed as follows. First, the opening 26 of the clip body 11 is pressed against the rib at the mounting position of the rib 40 of the clip mounting member. The width of the tip of the rib 40 is wider than the width of the entrance of the cavity 24 of the opening 26, but the resistance against insertion is small because of the guide shape of the cavity 24, and the tip of the rib 40 is inserted into the cavity 24. Go. Since the rib 40 has a draft angle and becomes wider from the tip toward the root, the resistance against insertion gradually increases.
At this time, the side surface of the rib 40 is pressed against the locking claw 14 of the outer clip main body 12, and the locking claw 14 of the outer clip main body 12 is expanded and deformed to sandwich the rib 40. Here, since the pair of latching claws 36 of the metal inner clip body 30 are inscribed on the opposite side of the space 24 of the pair of latching claws 14 of the outer clip body 12, it is made of resin. When the space 24 of the outer clip body 12 is expanded and deformed, the base portion of the locking claw 36 of the metal inner clip body 30 inscribed in the outer clip body 12 is also expanded and deformed. Therefore, a clamping force by the metal inner clip body 30 is also applied, and the rib 40 is clamped in the space 24 of the outer clip body 12.
Here, since the rib 40 is sandwiched between the locking claws 14 of the outer clip body 12, if a displacement in the pressing direction occurs, the frictional force between the rib 40 and the locking claws 14 acts as a drag force, and the Compared to the configuration in which the location 24 is not provided, there is a feature that the temporary fixing position is less likely to be displaced.
When the clip body 11 is further pressed against the rib 40, the tip of the rib 40 hits the protrusion 15 at the tip of the locking claw 14 of the resin outer clip body 12, and the protrusion 15 is engaged with the metal inner clip body 30. The projection is deformed until it comes into contact with the central portion of the pawl 36, and then the projection piece 15 and the central portion of the locking pawl 36 of the inner clip body 30 inscribed therein are expanded and deformed together. Also during this time, due to the draft angle of the rib 40, the portion of the locking claw 14 facing the space 24 is further expanded and deformed by the side surface of the rib 40.
When the clip body 11 is further pressed against the rib 40, the tip of the rib 40 enters beyond the tip of the protruding piece 15, and the tip of the rib 40 comes into direct contact with the locking claw 36 of the metal inner clip body 30. .
In order to insert the rib 40 until the tip of the rib 40 hits the locking claw 36 of the inner clip body 30, it is necessary to expand and deform the space 24 of the outer clip body 12 and further push the projecting piece 15 wide. The insertion resistance required to insert 40 increases gently.
After the leading end of the rib 40 hits the locking claw 36 of the inner clip body 30, in order to insert the rib 40, it is necessary to directly push the locking claw 36 apart, and the insertion resistance increases rapidly. Temporary fixing ends when the insertion resistance increases rapidly.

In the actual fastening, the plurality of clips 10 to which the wire harness is attached are temporarily fixed to predetermined positions of the ribs 40 of the clip attachment member, and after confirming that there is no slack or pulling of the wiring of the wire harness, the clip body 11 Is held so as to be easily inserted into the rib 40 and pressed against the rib 40, and the tip of the rib 40 passes through the locking teeth 38 provided at the tip of the locking claw 36 of the metal inner clip body 30. Push in. The main fastening ends when the tip end of the rib 40 reaches the base of both the clamping pieces 32 of the inner clip body 30. In the fixed state, the rib 40 is engaged with the space 24 of the outer clip body 12 made of resin, the protruding piece 15 at the tip of the locking claw 14 of the outer clip body 12 made of resin, and the inner clip body 30 made of metal. It is clamped by the locking teeth 38 at the tip of the pawl 36.
In this way, the teeth of the comb-like locking teeth 38 formed at the inner end of the locking claw 36 and the grooves are set and disposed as a corresponding positional relationship, so that the clip main body 11 is attached to the rib 40. When the main teeth are fixed to each other, the comb teeth are alternately pressed against the ribs 40 on the opposite side of the ribs 40, and the locking force at the time of the main locking is larger than when the comb-shaped locking teeth 38 are not set. Can be increased.
When there is a clip 10 whose position temporarily fixed to the rib 40 is inappropriate, the clip 10 is removed and temporarily fixed again. Compared with the final stop, the temporary stop is not clamped by the locking teeth 38, so it can be removed with a weaker force than the final stop state, and the mounting position can be easily changed.

As mentioned above, although one Example of this invention was described, it can implement with other various forms.
For example, in the above embodiment, the protrusion 15 provided at the tip of the locking claw 14 of the outer clip body 12 has a gap between the tip of the projection piece 15 and the locking claw 36 of the inner clip body 30. It can also be set as the structure which the protrusion piece 15 contact | abutted to the latching claw 36 in the form state. FIG. 9 shows a modified embodiment of the configuration. According to this modified embodiment, the projecting piece 15 is in contact with the locking claw 36. In this modified embodiment, the holding force at the time of temporary fixing can be increased as compared with the above embodiment.

In the above embodiment, the locking claw 36 of the inner clip body 30 is disposed in a state inscribed in the locking claw 14 of the outer clip body 12, but the locking claws 36, 14 are not adjacent but separated. It is good also as a structure arrange | positioned in a state.
Moreover, in the said Example, although the front-end | tip of the latching claw 36 of the inner side clip main body 30 does not have a space | interval in a free-form state, according to the said Example, the latching claw 14 of the resin-made outer side clip body 12 is carried out. Since the protruding piece 15 formed at the tip of the end portion is abutted without any gap, the entry of the electric wire can be prevented, so that the tip of the locking claw 36 of the inner clip body 30 has a gap in a free form state. It is good also as a structure arrange | positioned.
FIG. 10 shows a modified embodiment in which the locking claws 36 and 14 are arranged in a state where they are separated from each other, and a space is provided at the tip of the locking claw 36. According to this modified embodiment, the expansion deformation of the portion facing the void 24 of the locking claw 14 of the outer clip body 12 and the expansion deformation of the protruding piece 15 at the tip of the locking claw 14 of the outer clip body 12 are performed. In some cases, the inner clip body 30 is hardly deformed, and the ribs are sandwiched and temporarily fixed by the deformation of the outer clip body 12 exclusively. Further, the distal ends of the locking claws 36 of the inner clip body 30 are arranged in a free form state with a space therebetween, so that the distal ends of a pair of conventional locking claws of the metal inner clip body are joined. As compared with the case where the prevention of the entry of the electric wire is attempted, it is possible to reduce the attachment resistance when the clip is attached to the clip attachment member.

Moreover, in the said Example, although the latching tooth 38 was provided in the front-end | tip of the latching claw 36 of the inner side clip main body 30, it is good also as a structure which does not provide the latching tooth 38. FIG.
In FIGS. 9 and 10 shown as modified embodiments, the same reference numerals are given to the components corresponding to the configurations of the above-described embodiments, and the detailed description of the detailed configurations is omitted.
