さらに、クリップ部材１９と穴部２１とは、プロテクタ本体部７とプロテクタカバー部１１との組付方向と直交する方向で係合される。   Furthermore, the clip member 19 and the hole 21 are engaged in a direction orthogonal to the assembling direction of the protector body 7 and the protector cover 11.

図１〜図７に示すように、電線３は、内部に複数の芯線（不図示）を束ねて構成され、例えば、電源と機器との間、或いは機器間を電気的に接続している。この電線３は、複数の電線を組み合わせたワイヤーハーネスを構成して車体に配索され、端末部にコネクタ９が設けられている。   As shown in FIGS. 1-7, the electric wire 3 is comprised by bundling a some core wire (not shown) inside, for example, between the power supply and an apparatus, or between apparatuses electrically. This electric wire 3 constitutes a wire harness in which a plurality of electric wires are combined and is routed to the vehicle body, and a connector 9 is provided at the terminal portion.

このようなワイヤハーネスを構成する電線３は、プロテクタ本体部７の内部に配索されて収容され、端末部に設けられたコネクタ９がプロテクタ本体部７の一端側に固定される。   The electric wire 3 constituting such a wire harness is routed and accommodated inside the protector main body 7, and the connector 9 provided at the terminal portion is fixed to one end side of the protector main body 7.

プロテクタ本体部７は、合成樹脂などの絶縁性材料からなり、一側面に電線３を収容可能な開口部５を有するように断面凹状に形成されると共に、内部に電線３を屈曲して配索できるようにＬ字状に屈曲されて電線３の長さ方向に縦長に形成されている。   The protector body 7 is made of an insulating material such as a synthetic resin, and is formed in a concave cross section so as to have an opening 5 that can accommodate the electric wire 3 on one side surface, and the electric wire 3 is bent inside and wired. It is bent in an L shape so that it can be formed, and is formed vertically long in the length direction of the electric wire 3.

このプロテクタ本体部７は、開口部５から電線３を内部に収容して配索した状態で、車体取付部２３を介して車体に固定され、車体に対するワイヤーハーネスの配索形状を保持すると共に、電線３と周辺部材との干渉を防止する。このようなプロテクタ本体部７の一端側には、コネクタ９が配置される。   The protector body 7 is fixed to the vehicle body via the vehicle body mounting portion 23 in a state in which the electric wire 3 is accommodated and routed from the opening 5 and holds the wiring shape of the wire harness with respect to the vehicle body. Interference between the electric wire 3 and peripheral members is prevented. A connector 9 is disposed on one end side of the protector main body 7.

コネクタ９は、合成樹脂などの絶縁性材料からなり、電線３の端末部に電気的に接続された端子（不図示）を収容する端子収容部２５と、この端子収容部２５から連続する一部材でプロテクタ本体部７の一端側から外方に向けて延設された嵌合部１５とを有している。   The connector 9 is made of an insulating material such as synthetic resin, and includes a terminal accommodating portion 25 that accommodates a terminal (not shown) that is electrically connected to the terminal portion of the electric wire 3, and a single member that is continuous from the terminal accommodating portion 25. And a fitting portion 15 extending outward from one end side of the protector main body portion 7.

このコネクタ９は、端子収容部２５内に電線３に接続された端子を収容した状態で、電線３を開口部５からプロテクタ本体部７内に収容して配索することにより、プロテクタ本体部７の一端側に配置される。   The connector 9 accommodates and routes the electric wire 3 from the opening 5 into the protector main body 7 in a state where the terminal connected to the electric wire 3 is accommodated in the terminal accommodating portion 25, thereby providing the protector main body 7. It is arranged on one end side.

このプロテクタ本体部７の一端側に配置されたコネクタ９には、車体に配索された相手電線２７の端末部に電気的に接続された相手端子（不図示）を収容する相手コネクタ１３が嵌合部１５に嵌合され、端子と相手端子とが電気的に接続される。   A mating connector 13 that accommodates a mating terminal (not shown) that is electrically connected to a terminal portion of the mating electric wire 27 that is routed in the vehicle body is fitted into the connector 9 disposed on one end side of the protector body 7. The terminal 15 and the mating terminal are electrically connected to each other by fitting into the joint portion 15.

このようなコネクタ９の嵌合部１５は、プロテクタ本体部７の開口部５側に組付けられるプロテクタカバー部１１から露出するように配置されている。   Such a fitting portion 15 of the connector 9 is arranged so as to be exposed from the protector cover portion 11 assembled on the opening 5 side of the protector main body portion 7.

プロテクタカバー部１１は、合成樹脂などの絶縁性材料からなり、薄板状でプロテクタ本体部７の開口部５と同様な形状に形成され、プロテクタ本体部７の開口部５側に複数の係止部２９を介して組付けられ、プロテクタ本体部７の開口部５を閉塞する。   The protector cover portion 11 is made of an insulating material such as a synthetic resin, is formed in a thin plate shape and has the same shape as the opening portion 5 of the protector main body portion 7, and has a plurality of locking portions on the opening portion 5 side of the protector main body portion 7. 29, and the opening 5 of the protector body 7 is closed.

このプロテクタカバー部１１をプロテクタ本体部７に組付けた状態では、コネクタ９の嵌合部１５がプロテクタ本体部７やプロテクタカバー部１１から露出しているが、コネクタ９の端子収容部２５はプロテクタ本体部７やプロテクタカバー部１１に覆われている。   In a state where the protector cover part 11 is assembled to the protector main body part 7, the fitting part 15 of the connector 9 is exposed from the protector main body part 7 and the protector cover part 11, but the terminal accommodating part 25 of the connector 9 is the protector. Covered by the main body 7 and the protector cover 11.

このため、プロテクタカバー部１１をプロテクタ本体部７に組付けることにより、コネクタ９の端子収容部２５や電線３の端末部が外部に露出することがなく、電線３と端子との接続部などに直接、水や埃などが侵入することを防止することができる。   For this reason, by attaching the protector cover part 11 to the protector main body part 7, the terminal accommodating part 25 of the connector 9 and the terminal part of the electric wire 3 are not exposed to the outside, and the connecting part between the electric wire 3 and the terminal, etc. It is possible to prevent water or dust from entering directly.

一方、コネクタ９の嵌合部１５は、プロテクタカバー部１１をプロテクタ本体部７に組付けた状態で、外部に露出されているので、相手コネクタ１３との嵌合を目視し易く、嵌合作業性を向上することができる。このコネクタ９の嵌合部１５は、プロテクタ本体部７の固定部１７に固定されている。   On the other hand, the fitting portion 15 of the connector 9 is exposed to the outside in a state where the protector cover portion 11 is assembled to the protector main body portion 7, so that the fitting with the mating connector 13 can be easily seen, and the fitting work is performed. Can be improved. The fitting portion 15 of the connector 9 is fixed to the fixing portion 17 of the protector main body portion 7.

固定部１７は、プロテクタ本体部７の一端からコネクタ９と相手コネクタ１３との嵌合方向に向けてプロテクタカバー部１１から露出するように延設された壁部となっている。この固定部１７は、コネクタ９の嵌合部１５の側面に位置され、コネクタ９の嵌合部１５を固定する。   The fixing portion 17 is a wall portion extending from one end of the protector main body portion 7 so as to be exposed from the protector cover portion 11 in the fitting direction of the connector 9 and the mating connector 13. The fixing portion 17 is positioned on the side surface of the fitting portion 15 of the connector 9 and fixes the fitting portion 15 of the connector 9.

詳細には、コネクタ９の嵌合部１５にはクリップ部材１９が一体に固定され、固定部１７には素穴からなる固定部１７を貫通する穴部２１が設けられ、クリップ部材１９を穴部２１に挿入して係合させることにより、コネクタ９がプロテクタ本体部７に固定される。   Specifically, the clip member 19 is fixed integrally to the fitting portion 15 of the connector 9, and the fixing portion 17 is provided with a hole portion 21 that penetrates the fixing portion 17 made of a raw hole. The connector 9 is fixed to the protector body 7 by being inserted into and engaged with the connector 21.

このようにクリップ部材１９と穴部２１との係合によってコネクタ９を固定することにより、ナットやボルトによる固定手段、或いはロックアームやロック突起による固定手段などのように、周辺に作業スペースを必要としたり、複雑な成形を施したりする必要がなく、簡易な構造でコネクタ９を固定することができる。   By fixing the connector 9 by engaging the clip member 19 and the hole 21 in this way, a work space is required in the periphery, such as a fixing means using a nut or a bolt, or a fixing means using a lock arm or a lock projection. The connector 9 can be fixed with a simple structure without the need for a complicated structure.

加えて、クリップ部材１９と穴部２１との係合による固定では、電線３に余長部分を設ける必要がなく、プロテクタ本体部７にプロテクタカバー部１１を組付ける際に、電線３がプロテクタカバー部１１に噛み込まれることを防止することができる。   In addition, when the clip member 19 and the hole 21 are fixed by engagement, there is no need to provide an extra length portion in the electric wire 3, and when the protector cover portion 11 is assembled to the protector main body portion 7, the electric wire 3 is protected by the protector cover. It is possible to prevent the portion 11 from being bitten.

一方、クリップ部材１９と穴部２１との係合方向は、プロテクタ本体部７とプロテクタカバー部１１との組付方向と直交する方向に設定されている。詳細には、プロテクタ本体部７とプロテクタカバー部１１との組付方向が縦方向であるのに対して、クリップ部材１９と穴部２１との係合方向は横方向となっている。   On the other hand, the engaging direction of the clip member 19 and the hole 21 is set to a direction orthogonal to the assembling direction of the protector body 7 and the protector cover 11. Specifically, while the assembling direction of the protector body 7 and the protector cover 11 is the vertical direction, the engaging direction of the clip member 19 and the hole 21 is the lateral direction.

このようにクリップ部材１９と穴部２１との係合方向を設定することにより、図６，図７に示すように、プロテクタカバー部１１がプロテクタ本体部７に組付けられていても、いなくても、コネクタ９をプロテクタ本体部７に固定させることができる。   Thus, by setting the engagement direction of the clip member 19 and the hole 21, the protector cover 11 may be assembled to the protector main body 7 as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. Even so, the connector 9 can be fixed to the protector body 7.

加えて、このようなクリップ部材１９と穴部２１との係合方向では、クリップ部材１９と穴部２１とを係合させる際に、電線３がプロテクタ本体部７の開口部５側に向けて動くことがなく、電線３のプロテクタ本体部７からの浮き上がりを防止でき、電線３、すなわちワイヤーハーネスの配索形状に影響を与えることがない。   In addition, in such an engagement direction of the clip member 19 and the hole portion 21, when the clip member 19 and the hole portion 21 are engaged, the electric wire 3 is directed toward the opening 5 side of the protector main body portion 7. It does not move, can prevent the electric wire 3 from being lifted from the protector main body 7, and does not affect the wiring shape of the electric wire 3, that is, the wire harness.

このようなプロテクタ１では、プロテクタ本体部７に、一端からコネクタ９と相手コネクタ１３との嵌合方向に延設されコネクタ９の嵌合部１５をプロテクタカバー部１１から露出して固定させる固定部１７が設けられているので、電線３に余長部分を設けなくても、コネクタ９を固定部１７に固定することができ、プロテクタカバー部１１の組付時に電線３の余長部分が噛み込むことがない。   In such a protector 1, a fixing portion that extends from one end in the fitting direction of the connector 9 and the mating connector 13 and is exposed to the protector cover portion 11 and fixed to the protector main body portion 7 in the fitting direction of the connector 9 and the mating connector 13. 17 is provided, the connector 9 can be fixed to the fixing portion 17 without providing the extra length portion in the electric wire 3, and the extra length portion of the electric wire 3 bites when the protector cover portion 11 is assembled. There is nothing.

また、コネクタ９の嵌合部１５は、プロテクタカバー部１１から露出されているので、コネクタ９がプロテクタ本体部７やプロテクタカバー部１１によって覆われることがなく、コネクタ９と相手コネクタ１３との嵌合作業を目視し易くすることができる。   Further, since the fitting portion 15 of the connector 9 is exposed from the protector cover portion 11, the connector 9 is not covered by the protector main body portion 7 and the protector cover portion 11, and the connector 9 and the mating connector 13 are fitted. This makes it easy to visually check the joint work.

さらに、プロテクタ本体部７の固定部１７は、プロテクタカバー部１１から露出されているので、プロテクタカバー部１１の組付けの有無に関わらず、コネクタ９を固定部１７に固定させることができ、電線３の配索状況に合わせてプロテクタ１を取り扱うことができ、電線３の配索の自由度を向上することができる。   Furthermore, since the fixing part 17 of the protector main body part 7 is exposed from the protector cover part 11, the connector 9 can be fixed to the fixing part 17 regardless of whether the protector cover part 11 is assembled or not. Thus, the protector 1 can be handled in accordance with the routing status of the cable 3, and the degree of freedom in routing the wires 3 can be improved.

従って、このようなプロテクタ１では、プロテクタカバー部１１の組付時における電線３の噛み込みを防止でき、コネクタ９と相手コネクタ１３との嵌合作業を行い易く、電線３の配索の自由度を向上することができるので、組付性を向上することができる。   Therefore, in such a protector 1, it is possible to prevent the electric wire 3 from being caught when the protector cover portion 11 is assembled, it is easy to perform the fitting operation between the connector 9 and the mating connector 13, and the degree of freedom of the arrangement of the electric wire 3. As a result, it is possible to improve the assemblability.

また、コネクタ９は、嵌合部１５に一体に設けられたクリップ部材１９と、プロテクタ本体部７の固定部１７に設けられクリップ部材１９が挿入して係合される穴部２１とを介して固定部１７に固定されるので、複雑な固定構造を用いることなく、容易にコネクタ９を固定部１７に固定することができる。   Further, the connector 9 is connected via a clip member 19 provided integrally with the fitting portion 15 and a hole portion 21 provided in the fixing portion 17 of the protector main body portion 7 and into which the clip member 19 is inserted and engaged. Since it is fixed to the fixing portion 17, the connector 9 can be easily fixed to the fixing portion 17 without using a complicated fixing structure.

さらに、クリップ部材１９と穴部２１とは、プロテクタ本体部７とプロテクタカバー部１１との組付方向と直交する方向で係合されるので、コネクタ９の固定部１７に対する固定時にプロテクタ本体部７から電線３が浮き上がることを防止することができる。   Furthermore, since the clip member 19 and the hole 21 are engaged in a direction orthogonal to the assembling direction of the protector main body 7 and the protector cover 11, the protector main body 7 is fixed when the connector 9 is fixed to the fixing 17. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the electric wire 3 from floating.

なお、本実施の形態に係るプロテクタでは、電線の端末部にコネクタを接続した状態で、プロテクタ本体部に収容させているが、これに限らず、電線をプロテクタ本体部に収容させた後に電線の端末部にコネクタを接続してもよい。   In the protector according to the present embodiment, the connector is connected to the end portion of the electric wire and is accommodated in the protector main body. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and after the electric wire is accommodated in the protector main portion, A connector may be connected to the terminal unit.

この場合であっても、コネクタの固定部は、プロテクタ本体部の一端から外方に向けて延設されているので、電線に余長部分を設けてなくても、コネクタに端子を収容することができ、コネクタを固定部に固定することができる。   Even in this case, since the fixing portion of the connector extends outward from one end of the protector main body, the terminal can be accommodated in the connector even if the extra length portion is not provided in the electric wire. And the connector can be fixed to the fixing portion.
