[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the above-mentioned known holder, when the arm is rotated around the hinge so as to surround the wire harness placed on the main body, the elastic member comes into contact with the wire harness and is pressed in a state of being bent toward the arm. By the pressing on the arm side, a reaction force toward the main body side is generated in the elastic member, and the elastic member presses the wire harness toward the main body side and holds it on the main body. As described above, even if the outer diameter of the wire harness is different, the wire harness can be held, but the direction of the reaction force of the elastic member changes if the outer diameter of the wire harness is different. Therefore, the contact position of the wire harness with respect to the main body changes if the outer diameter is different, and there is a drawback that the mounting is not stable. In particular, if the outer diameter of the wire harness changes with respect to the means for attaching the main body to the panel, the center of the wire harness shifts and the wiring position shifts, which is not preferable.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a holder for an electric wire or the like that can be held in contact with a fixed position of the main body even if the outer diameter of the elongated mounting member is different.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5 show a holder 1 for electric wires or the like according to the present invention. The holder 1 includes a main body 4 which is curved so as to hold an elongated member such as an electric wire (the electric wires 2 and 3 having different outer diameters are shown by imaginary lines in FIG. 1) and which contacts a part of the peripheral surface of the member. Have. The main body 4 is provided with a T-stud engagement portion 5 as an attachment means for attaching the main body to a panel such as a vehicle body, and one end is connected to the main body 4 by a hinge 6, and the other end, which is a free end, has a main body. An arm 9 having a locking claw 8 that locks with the locking portion 7 is provided. The arm 9 is curved so that the locking claw 8 cooperates with the main body 4 in a state of being locked to the main body locking portion 7 to form a ring surrounding the electric wire. In the illustrated embodiment, two sets of main body 4 and arm 9 are integrally molded so that two electric wires can be held in parallel. This is merely an example, and the body 4 and the arm 9 may be one set. The T-stud engaging portion 5 as an attaching means receives the head portion of the T-stud fixed to the panel and slides and fixes the head portion of the T-stud. The mounting means is not limited to the T-stud locking portion 5, but may be, for example, one that can be mounted on a screw stud fixed to the panel, or can be inserted and mounted in the panel hole. An anchor-shaped locking part may be used. Ribs 10 are formed on the back surface of the body 4 for reinforcement.

The arm 7 is provided with an elastic member 12 that presses the electric wire toward the main body. When the arm 9 is rotated around the hinge 6 so as to surround the electric wire placed on the main body 4, the elastic member 12 comes into contact with the electric wire and is pressed in a state of being bent toward the arm 7 side. By pressing the side, a reaction force is generated in the elastic member 12 toward the side of the main body 4, and the electric wire is pressed against the main body to hold the electric wire, and the electric wire can be held even if the outer diameter of the electric wire is different. In the present invention, the elastic member 12 is connected to the vicinity of one end of the arm 9 (in the illustrated example, the end is on the locking claw 8 side, but may be the end on the hinge 6 side). The first elastic piece 13 extends from the part to the other end, and the second elastic piece 14 is connected to the free end of the first elastic piece 13 and extends back along the first elastic piece 13. When the arm 9 is rotated around the hinge 6 so as to surround the electric wire placed on the main body 4, the first elastic piece 13 comes into contact with the electric wire and rotates toward the arm side around the connecting portion 15 to the arm. To be made. As a result, a reaction force toward the main body 4 side is generated in the first elastic piece 13 to press the wire against the main body. Further, when the arm 9 is rotated around the hinge 6, the second elastic piece 14 also abuts the electric wire and is rotated around the connecting portion 16 to the first elastic piece 13 toward the arm side. As a result, a reaction force toward the main body 4 side is also generated in the second elastic piece 14, and the electric wire is pressed against the main body.

These reaction forces will be described with reference to FIG. As described above, the reaction force F1 is generated in the first elastic piece 13 in the direction in which the first elastic piece 13 pivots to the main body side around the connecting portion 15 to the arm 9, and the second elastic piece 14 has the first elastic piece 13 A reaction force F2 in the direction of turning to the main body side is generated around the connecting portion 16 to. The reaction force obtained by combining these reaction forces F1 and F2 is indicated by F3. In the present invention, in the first elastic piece 13 and the second elastic piece 14, the reaction force F3, which is a combination of the two reaction forces F1 and F2, is at a fixed position on the main body 4 (the lowermost position in the illustrated example). ) Is formed to face. Therefore, in the illustrated example, the first elastic piece 13 is formed so as to bend from the connecting portion 15 to the arm 9 and lower toward the main body side, and the second elastic piece 14 is formed to move from the connecting portion 16 to the arm 9. It is formed so as to bend to the lower side toward the main body.

As described above, since the elastic member 12 is formed by the first elastic piece 13 and the second elastic piece 14, both the small-diameter electric wire 2 and the large-diameter electric wire 3 are combined. The reaction force F 3 is always directed to a fixed position on the body 4. That is, in FIG. 6, in the case of the electric wire 2 having a small diameter, the second elastic piece 14 is less flexed toward the arm side, the reaction force F2 is lower than that in FIG. 6, and the first elastic piece 13 is moved toward the arm side. Since the flexure is small and the reaction force F1 is downward from that in FIG. 6, the synthetic reaction force F3 is as shown in the figure. Further, in the case of the electric wire 3 having a large diameter, since the second elastic piece 14 is largely bent toward the arm side and the turning amount is large, the reaction force F2 is in a horizontal direction as compared with FIG. The deflection of 14 toward the arm side also increases, and the reaction force F1 also becomes more horizontal than in FIG. The reaction force F2 and the reaction force F1 are in opposite directions in the horizontal direction, the horizontal components are canceled out, and the combined reaction force F3 is downward as shown. That is, even if the outer diameters of the electric wires to be held are different, since the elastic member 12 includes the first elastic piece 13 and the second elastic piece 14, the electric wire is fixed at a fixed position of the main body.
