The plastic film 10 is attached to the outer surface of the case 5 so that the first portion 10 a covers the opening 51 and the second portion 10 b covers the recess 53. That is, it adheres. At this time, the plastic film 10 can be attached by a known heat sealing method or ultrasonic sealing method, and the plastic film 10 attached to the outer surface of the case 5 can be easily peeled off by hand. .

上記止水材6は、シリコーンまたはウレタンを主成分とする合成樹脂で構成されており、常温下で空気中の水分に反応して硬化する材料である。また、この止水材6は、未硬化時において、粘度が10Pa.s程度であり、可塑度が100〜130(JIS K 6249に規定する測定方法に準じて測定。)のゲル状のものを用いることが好ましい。   The water blocking material 6 is made of a synthetic resin mainly composed of silicone or urethane, and is a material that cures in response to moisture in the air at room temperature. Further, the waterstop material 6 has a viscosity of 10 Pa. When uncured. It is preferable to use a gel-like material having a degree of s and a plasticity of 100 to 130 (measured according to the measurement method specified in JIS K 6249).

このような止水材6は、図3に示すように、ケース5の上面まで注入され、注入直後にケース5に上記プラスチックフィルム10が被せられることにより未硬化状態が維持される。そして、止水部Sを形成する際にプラスチックフィルム10がケース5から剥がされることにより硬化反応を開始する。また、この止水材6は、上述した粘度及び可塑度の範囲のものを用いることにより、ケース5への注入時に凹部53から流れ出すことが防止される。   As shown in FIG. 3, such a waterstop material 6 is injected up to the upper surface of the case 5, and the uncured state is maintained by covering the case 5 with the plastic film 10 immediately after the injection. Then, when the water stop portion S is formed, the plastic film 10 is peeled off from the case 5 to start the curing reaction. Moreover, this water-stopping material 6 is prevented from flowing out from the recess 53 when being injected into the case 5 by using a material having the above-mentioned viscosity and plasticity range.

また、本実施形態では、止水材6がケース5の上面まで注入され、ケース5にプラスチックフィルム10が被せられることにより、この止水材6が外気即ち空気と遮断されて未硬化状態が維持されるようになっているが、本発明では、ケース5内の空気を窒素置換または真空状態とすることにより、止水材6の注入量を減らすことも可能である。   Moreover, in this embodiment, the water stop material 6 is inject | poured to the upper surface of the case 5, and when the case 5 covers the plastic film 10, this water stop material 6 is interrupted | blocked with external air, ie, air, and an unhardened state is maintained. However, in the present invention, it is also possible to reduce the injection amount of the water blocking material 6 by replacing the air in the case 5 with nitrogen or in a vacuum state.

上記構成の止水部材8は、第1の止水部材7a及び第2の止水部材7bのケース5が、プラスチックフィルム10が取り除かれた状態で、開口部51同士が向かい合わせになる向きで互いの間に電線束4を挟むことにより、ケース5内のゲル状の止水材6が電線41間に浸透し、硬化する。また、第1の止水部材7a及び第2の止水部材7bのケース5同士は、電線束4を互いの間に挟んだ状態、即ち電線束4を凹部53に位置付けた状態、で縁部52同士が互いに当接して開口部51を遮蔽する。また、これら縁部52同士の間には接着剤11(図6を参照。)が塗布されることにより縁部52同士が接着される。即ちケース5同士が互いに固定される。そして、止水材6が硬化することにより、これら一対のケース5が電線束4に固定される。さらに、硬化するまでの間に止水材6が凹部53から漏れ出すことを防止するために、凹部53を通されてケース5外に位置付けられた電線束4の外周及びケース5の外周には、凹部53を遮蔽する格好でテープ91が巻き付けられる。こうして電線41間を止水した止水材6と、その周りに取り付けられた一対のケース5とで止水部Sが形成される。   The water-stop member 8 having the above-described configuration is such that the case 5 of the first water-stop member 7a and the second water-stop member 7b is oriented so that the openings 51 face each other with the plastic film 10 removed. By sandwiching the wire bundle 4 between each other, the gel-like water blocking material 6 in the case 5 penetrates between the wires 41 and is cured. Further, the cases 5 of the first water stop member 7a and the second water stop member 7b are in the state in which the wire bundle 4 is sandwiched between them, that is, the wire bundle 4 is positioned in the recess 53. 52 abut each other to shield the opening 51. Moreover, the edge parts 52 are adhere | attached by apply | coating the adhesive agent 11 (refer FIG. 6) between these edge parts 52. FIG. That is, the cases 5 are fixed to each other. The pair of cases 5 are fixed to the wire bundle 4 by hardening the water stop material 6. Further, in order to prevent the water blocking material 6 from leaking out of the recess 53 until it is cured, the outer periphery of the wire bundle 4 and the outer periphery of the case 5 that are positioned outside the case 5 through the recess 53 are provided. The tape 91 is wound so as to shield the recess 53. In this way, the water stop part S is formed by the water stop material 6 that stops water between the electric wires 41 and the pair of cases 5 attached around the water stop material 6.

また、本発明では、未硬化のゲル状の止水材6を用いることから、このゲル状の止水材6が電線41間の細部に亘って十分に浸透するので、電線41間に空隙を作らず、電線41間を確実に止水することができる。   Further, in the present invention, since the uncured gel-like water-stopping material 6 is used, the gel-like water-stopping material 6 sufficiently permeates the details between the electric wires 41, so that a gap is formed between the electric wires 41. Without making, water between the electric wires 41 can be surely stopped.

また、本発明では、ケース5の側壁50a,50bに電線束4を通す凹部53を設けていることから、一対のケース5の縁部52同士を当接させることができるので、縁部52同士の間から未硬化の止水材6が漏れ出すことを防止でき、そのために、電線41間を確実に止水することができる。さらに、縁部52同士が接着剤11により隙間なく接着されて一対のケース5同士が互いに固定されるとともに、凹部53を遮蔽する格好で電線束4の外周及びケース5の外周にテープ91が巻き付けられることから、縁部52同士の間、及び、凹部53から未硬化の止水材6が漏れ出すことを確実に防止できる。   Moreover, in this invention, since the recessed part 53 which lets the electric wire bundle 4 pass is provided in side wall 50a, 50b of case 5, since the edge parts 52 of a pair of case 5 can be contacted, edge parts 52 It is possible to prevent the uncured water-stopping material 6 from leaking out from between the wires, and thus the water between the wires 41 can be reliably stopped. Further, the edge portions 52 are bonded to each other without any gap by the adhesive 11 so that the pair of cases 5 are fixed to each other, and the tape 91 is wound around the outer periphery of the wire bundle 4 and the outer periphery of the case 5 so as to shield the recess 53. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent the uncured waterstop material 6 from leaking between the edge portions 52 and from the concave portion 53.

上述したように所定部分に止水部Sが形成された電線束4は、グロメット3内部を通されて、ケース5の外表面が円筒部33の内周面に密着した状態で、円筒部33の外周と電線束4の外周とが共にテープ92によりテープ巻きされて、図1に示すワイヤハーネス1となる。   As described above, the wire bundle 4 in which the water stop portion S is formed in a predetermined portion is passed through the grommet 3, and the cylindrical portion 33 is in a state where the outer surface of the case 5 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 33. 1 and the outer periphery of the wire bundle 4 are both taped by a tape 92 to form the wire harness 1 shown in FIG.

このようなワイヤハーネス1は、貫通孔2aの内周面にグロメット3の外表面が密着し、グロメット3の円筒部33の内周面にケース5の外表面が密着し、円筒部33の内側に位置付けられた電線束4の各電線41間が止水材6により止水されていることにより、前記自動車の室外から室内に水などの液体が侵入することが防止される。   In such a wire harness 1, the outer surface of the grommet 3 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 2 a, and the outer surface of the case 5 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 33 of the grommet 3. Since the space between the wires 41 of the wire bundle 4 positioned at is stopped by the water blocking material 6, liquid such as water can be prevented from entering the room from the outside of the automobile.

さらに、このワイヤハーネス1は、電線束4が屈曲されたりひねられたりして止水部Sに大きな外力がかかっても、ケース5の内側に位置付けられた電線束4と止水材6とが動かないので、電線41と止水材6とが互いに剥離することがなく、そのために、液体の侵入を確実に防止できるとともにこの良好な止水性を長期に亘って保つことができる。   Furthermore, even if the wire bundle 4 is bent or twisted and a large external force is applied to the water stop portion S, the wire harness 1 is provided with the wire bundle 4 and the water stop material 6 positioned inside the case 5. Since it does not move, the electric wire 41 and the water stop material 6 do not peel off from each other, so that it is possible to reliably prevent liquid from entering and to maintain this good water stop for a long period of time.

続いて、上述した構成の止水部材8を用いてワイヤハーネス1の電線束4に止水部Sを形成する方法を説明する。   Then, the method to form the water stop part S in the wire bundle 4 of the wire harness 1 using the water stop member 8 of the structure mentioned above is demonstrated.

まず、図4に示すように、ケース5内に止水材6が注入され、プラスチックフィルム10が被せられた第1の止水部材7a及び第2の止水部材7b、即ち止水部材8、を予め用意しておく。   First, as shown in FIG. 4, a water-stop material 6 is injected into the case 5 and a first water-stop member 7 a and a second water-stop member 7 b covered with a plastic film 10, that is, the water-stop member 8, Is prepared in advance.

そして、図5に示すように、プラスチックフィルム10をケース5から剥がし、図6に示すように、第1の止水部材7aのケース5の縁部52に接着剤11を塗布する。   Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the plastic film 10 is peeled off from the case 5, and as shown in FIG. 6, the adhesive 11 is applied to the edge 52 of the case 5 of the first water stop member 7a.

そして、これら第1の止水部材7a及び第2の止水部材7bを開口部51同士が向かい合わせになる向きで向かい合わせ、ケース5の凹部53に電線束4が位置付けられるように電線束4を位置決めして、第1の止水部材7aと第2の止水部材7bとを互いに近付け、図7に示すように、これら第1の止水部材7aと第2の止水部材7bとの間、即ち一対のケース5間、に電線束4を挟む。また、このことにより、互いに重ねられたケース5の縁部52同士が接着されてケース5同士が互いに固定される(請求項中の止水部材取り付け工程に相当する。)。   Then, the first water stop member 7a and the second water stop member 7b face each other in a direction in which the openings 51 face each other, and the wire bundle 4 is positioned in the concave portion 53 of the case 5. , The first water stop member 7a and the second water stop member 7b are brought close to each other, and as shown in FIG. 7, the first water stop member 7a and the second water stop member 7b The wire bundle 4 is sandwiched between the pair of cases 5. Moreover, by this, the edge parts 52 of the case 5 piled up mutually are adhere | attached, and the cases 5 are mutually fixed (equivalent to the water stop member attachment process in a claim).

この際、即ち図6に示された状態では、第2の止水部材7bの開口部51が下側、即ち鉛直方向下方、に向けられることになるが、止水材6の粘性及び表面張力が作用することにより、第2の止水部材7bのケース5の開口部51から止水材6が急速に滴り落ちることはない。また、これと同様に、第1の止水部材7a及び第2の止水部材7bのケース5の凹部53から止水材6が急速に漏れ出すことはない。   In this case, that is, in the state shown in FIG. 6, the opening 51 of the second water-stop member 7 b is directed downward, that is, vertically downward, but the viscosity and surface tension of the water-stop material 6. As a result, the water-stopping material 6 does not drip rapidly from the opening 51 of the case 5 of the second water-stopping member 7b. Similarly to this, the water stop material 6 does not leak rapidly from the recess 53 of the case 5 of the first water stop member 7a and the second water stop member 7b.

そして、図8に示すように、凹部53を通されてケース5外に位置付けられた電線束4の外周及びケース5の外周に、凹部53を遮蔽する格好でテープ91を巻き付ける。   Then, as shown in FIG. 8, the tape 91 is wound around the outer periphery of the wire bundle 4 and the outer periphery of the case 5 that are positioned outside the case 5 through the recess 53 so as to shield the recess 53.

この状態で、所定の時間を置くことにより、ケース5内の止水材6がゆっくりと電線41間に浸透し、さらなる時間の経過により電線41間に浸透した止水材6が硬化する。また、止水材6が硬化することにより、一対のケース5が電線束4に固定される(請求項中の止水材硬化工程に相当する。)。こうして止水部材8により電線束4の所定位置に止水部Sが形成される。   In this state, by setting a predetermined time, the water blocking material 6 in the case 5 slowly penetrates between the electric wires 41, and the water blocking material 6 that has penetrated between the electric wires 41 is cured as time passes. Moreover, when the water stop material 6 hardens | cures, a pair of case 5 is fixed to the wire bundle 4 (it corresponds to the water stop material hardening process in a claim). Thus, the water stop portion S is formed at a predetermined position of the wire bundle 4 by the water stop member 8.

そして、図9に示すように、止水部Sが形成された電線束4をグロメット3内に通すとともに、止水部Sが形成された部分をグロメット3の円筒部33内に押し込み、ケース5の外表面を円筒部33の内周面に密着させて、円筒部33の外周と、この円筒部33からグロメット3外に引き出された電線束4の外周とにテープ92を巻き付けて、電線束4とグロメット3とを互いに固定する。こうして、図1に示すワイヤハーネス1が組み立てられる。   Then, as shown in FIG. 9, the wire bundle 4 in which the water stop portion S is formed is passed through the grommet 3, and the portion in which the water stop portion S is formed is pushed into the cylindrical portion 33 of the grommet 3, and the case 5 A tape 92 is wound around the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion 33 and the outer periphery of the wire bundle 4 drawn from the cylindrical portion 33 to the outside of the grommet 3. 4 and grommet 3 are fixed to each other. Thus, the wire harness 1 shown in FIG. 1 is assembled.

上述したように、本発明の止水部形成方法によれば、従来の電線束4の止水処理に必要であった止水材塗布装置を用いることなく、部品化された止水部材8により、短時間で容易に電線束4に止水部Sを形成することができる。   As described above, according to the method for forming a water stop portion of the present invention, the water stop member 8 made into a component can be used without using the water stop material coating apparatus that is necessary for the water stop treatment of the conventional wire bundle 4. And the water stop part S can be easily formed in the wire bundle 4 in a short time.

次に、本発明の第2の実施形態に係る止水部材を、図10を用いて説明する。図10は、本発明の第2の実施形態にかかる止水部材を示す断面図である。また、同図において、前述した実施形態と同一構成部分には同一符号を付して説明を省略する。   Next, a water stop member according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view showing a water stop member according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Also, in the figure, the same components as those in the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

本実施形態の止水部材18は、前述した第1の実施形態の止水部材8と同様に、ワイヤハーネスの電線束4に止水部を形成するものである(図1を参照。)。前記止水部材18は、第1の止水部材17aと、第2の止水部材17bとを有している。   The water stop member 18 of this embodiment forms a water stop part in the wire bundle 4 of a wire harness similarly to the water stop member 8 of 1st Embodiment mentioned above (refer FIG. 1). The water stop member 18 includes a first water stop member 17a and a second water stop member 17b.

上記第1の止水部材17a及び上記第2の止水部材17bは、合成樹脂で構成され、互いに同じ形状に形成された一対のケース15a,15bと、それぞれのケース15a,15b内に注入された止水材6と、を有している。   The first water stop member 17a and the second water stop member 17b are made of synthetic resin and are injected into a pair of cases 15a and 15b formed in the same shape, and the respective cases 15a and 15b. And a water stop material 6.

上記一対のケース15a,15bは、互いの間に電線束4を挟んだ状態で、互いに係止して当該ケース15a,15b同士を固定する係止部55,56を有している。即ち、一方のケース15aは、縁部52から突出した係止部としての突起部55を有しており、他方のケース15bは、縁部52から凹に形成され、前記突起部55と係止可能な係止部としての穴部56を有している。また、これら一対のケース15a,15bは、突起部55及び穴部56以外は第1の実施形態の一対のケース5と同一構成になっている。   The pair of cases 15a and 15b have locking portions 55 and 56 that lock each other and fix the cases 15a and 15b with the wire bundle 4 sandwiched therebetween. That is, one case 15 a has a protruding portion 55 as a locking portion protruding from the edge portion 52, and the other case 15 b is formed in a concave shape from the edge portion 52 and is locked to the protruding portion 55. It has a hole 56 as a possible locking part. Further, the pair of cases 15 a and 15 b have the same configuration as the pair of cases 5 of the first embodiment except for the protrusion 55 and the hole 56.

上述した止水部材18によれば、縁部52に接着剤11を塗布しなくても、ケース15a,15b同士を互いに固定することができる。   According to the water stop member 18 described above, the cases 15 a and 15 b can be fixed to each other without applying the adhesive 11 to the edge 52.

また、上述した第1の実施形態では、ケース5に取り付けられるフィルムがプラスチックフィルム10である例を説明したが、本発明では、アルミニウム等で構成された金属フィルムや離型紙などを前記プラスチックフィルム10の代わりに用いることも可能である。   In the first embodiment described above, an example in which the film attached to the case 5 is the plastic film 10 has been described. However, in the present invention, a metal film made of aluminum or the like, a release paper, or the like is used as the plastic film 10. It is also possible to use instead of.

また、上述した第1,2の実施形態では、空気中の水分に反応して硬化する止水材6を用いた例を説明したが、本発明では、これ以外の止水材、例えばA液とB液とが互いに混合されることにより硬化する2液タイプの止水材を用いることも可能である。その場合は、一対のケース5,15a,15bの一方にA液を注入し、他方にB液を注入するようにすれば良い。   In the first and second embodiments described above, the example using the water stop material 6 that cures in response to moisture in the air has been described. However, in the present invention, other water stop materials, for example, liquid A It is also possible to use a two-component water-stopping material that cures by mixing the B and the B solution. In that case, the liquid A may be injected into one of the pair of cases 5, 15a, 15b, and the liquid B may be injected into the other.

また、上述した第1,2の実施形態では、一対のケース5,15a,15bが、接着剤11または突起部55及び穴部56により互いに固定される例を説明したが、本発明ではこれ以外に、例えば縁部52同士をヒートシール方法を用いて溶着することにより一対のケース5,15a,15b同士を固定するようにしても良い。   In the first and second embodiments described above, the example in which the pair of cases 5, 15 a, and 15 b are fixed to each other by the adhesive 11 or the protruding portion 55 and the hole portion 56 has been described. In addition, for example, the pair of cases 5, 15 a, and 15 b may be fixed by welding the edges 52 using a heat sealing method.

なお、前述した実施形態は本発明の代表的な形態を示したに過ぎず、本発明は、実施形態に限定されるものではない。即ち、本発明の骨子を逸脱しない範囲で種々変形して実施することができる。   In addition, embodiment mentioned above only showed the typical form of this invention, and this invention is not limited to embodiment. That is, various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
