Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make a clip applicable to attachment holes which are opened at different positions while a fixing position of the clip to an attachment member is not changed, and to improve the attachment work of the clip. SOLUTION: A fixing plate 11 which is fixed to a wiring harness W, turn plates 13 and 14 which are rotatably fixed to the center part of the fixing plate 11 while one side ends of the turn plates 13 and 14 overlap each other and can be turned independently from each other with a turn fulcrum 12 as the center of turning, and arrow-shaped elastic deformation parts 15 and 16 which are stood on the other side ends of the turn plates 13 and 14 respectively, are provided. A distance between the turn fulcrum 12 and the other side end of the turn plate 14 is longer than a distance between the turn fulcrum 12 and the other side end of the turn plate 13. If the heads of the elastic deformation parts 15 and 16 are inserted into attachment holes formed in a panel to which the wiring harness W is attached, and the parts 15 and 16 are elastically recovered from deformation, the end parts 15b and 16b of the elastic deformation parts 15 and 16 are retained with the edges of the attachment holes, and the elastic deformation parts 15 and 16 can not be drawn out. As a result, even if the positions of the apertures such as attachment holes of the panel are different, the fixing plate 11 can be fixed to the same poition of the wiring harness W.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a clip,
More specifically, the present invention relates to a clip fixed to a mounting member to be mounted on a mounted member and inserted into and engaged with a mounting hole of the mounted member, and more particularly to a clip which can correspond to positions of a plurality of mounting holes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a mounting member is mounted on a mounting plate or the like, a mounting hole is opened in the mounting plate while the mounting member is fixed to a base side (fixing portion) of a clip. Attachment is performed by inserting an elastic deformation portion of a clip into an attachment hole.

As this kind of clip, for example, FIG.
Are formed as shown in FIG. This clip 1
Is used to attach a wire harness (attachment member) W or the like to a body panel (attachment member) P or the like of a vehicle body. It is formed so as to stand upright.
The clip 1 is obtained by winding the tape T around the wire harness W and fixing the plate member 3, and then inserting the elastic deformation portion 2 into the mounting hole Ha opened in the panel P while elastically deforming the head from the head to make it elastically return. , Elastic deformation part 2
Is engaged with the edge of the mounting hole Ha. Thereby, the wire harness W can be fixed to the vehicle body (panel P).

[0004]

However, in such a conventional clip, as shown in a mounting hole Hb (shown by a dashed line in FIG. 4), the position of the clip with respect to the wire harness W is changed. In the case of a panel P having a specification deviating from the mounting hole Ha, the clip 1 must be fixed to the wire harness W according to the specification.

For this reason, a jig for fixing the clip 1 to the wire harness W must be replaced for each specification or extra preparation is required, and a mistake is likely to occur in the fixing position of the clip 1. Therefore, there was a problem that workability was poor. Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to improve workability by making it possible to cope with mounting holes opened at different positions without changing the fixing position of the clip.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, a fixing portion for fixing to a mounting member;
An elastically deformable portion, which is elastically restored when inserted from a head into a mounting hole opened to a member to be mounted on which a mounting member is mounted and whose end is engaged with an edge of the mounting hole so that it cannot be pulled out; A clip used to attach a mounting member fixed to the fixed portion to a member to be mounted, the clip having a rotating portion rotatably provided on the fixed portion,
A plurality of the elastically deformable portions are erected at different distances from the rotation fulcrum of the rotation portion.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the configuration of the first aspect, the rotating portion is formed separately for each elastic deformation portion, and each of the rotating portions is separately rotated. It is characterized in that it is provided on the fixed part as much as possible. According to the first and second aspects of the present invention, the fixed portion fixed to the mounting member has a plurality of elastically deformable portions erected at positions different in distance from the fulcrum. Is rotatably provided. Therefore, even if the fixed portion is fixed at a fixed position of the mounting member, the rotating portion is rotated so that any one of the elastically deformable portions corresponds to the mounting hole of the mounted member opened at a different position depending on the specification. By doing so, the elastically deformable portion can be inserted into the mounting hole so that the elastically deformable portion cannot be pulled out.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 show a first embodiment of the clip according to the present invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment, and this embodiment corresponds to the first and second aspects of the present invention. In both figures, reference numeral 10 denotes a clip formed of a resin material having elasticity. The clip 10 includes a fixing plate (fixing portion) 11 for winding and fixing the tape T along the wire harness W, and a fixing plate 11. Rotating plates 13 of different lengths, each of which can be separately rotated around a pivoting fulcrum 12 in a state where one end is overlapped at substantially the center of
14, and arrow-shaped elastic deformation portions 15 and 16 erected on the other end sides of the rotating plates 13 and 14, respectively.

The clip 10 elastically deforms the bending portions 15a and 16a when the elastic deformation portions 15 and 16 are inserted into the mounting holes H of the body panel P of the vehicle body from the head. When the edge of the hole H reaches the ends 15b and 16b, the hole H is elastically restored, so that the end of the hole H
b, 16b can be engaged and attached to the panel P.

Since the elastic deformation portions 15 and 16 are erected on the rotating plates 13 and 14 at different distances a and b from the rotating fulcrum 12, as shown in FIG. When the fixing plate 11 is fixed with the tape T based on the distance B from the reference position to the rotation fulcrum 12, the mounting hole Ha is opened at a position obtained by adding the distance a to the distance B because the specification of the panel P is different. When the rotation plate 13 is parallel to the fixed plate 11, the elastic deformation portion 15 erected at a position a from the rotation fulcrum 12 at a distance a can be inserted into the mounting hole Ha for mounting. When the mounting hole Hb is opened at the position to which the b is added, the resilient deforming portion 16 that stands up at a position of a distance b from the turning fulcrum 12 with the rotating plate 14 parallel to the fixed plate 11 is inserted into the mounting hole Hb. Can be attached.

Therefore, this clip 10 is
Are different from each other (even if the opening positions of the mounting holes Ha and Hb are different), the distance B from the reference position of the wire harness W is different.
The fixing plate 11 can be fixed by the tape T so that the rotation fulcrum 12 is located at the position of the mounting hole H. In the case of the mounting hole Ha, the elastic deformation portion 15 of the rotation plate 13 is inserted, and In this case, the elastic deformation portion 16 of the rotating plate 14 can be inserted and attached.

The concave portion 17 formed on the back side of the rotating plate 14 in FIG. 1 is for preventing the rotation of the rotating plate 14 from being hindered by the tape T when the rotating plate 14 is parallel to the fixed plate 11. . Needless to say, the rotating plates 13 and 14 parallel to the fixing plate 11 may be fixed by winding the tape T in that state. Thus, in the present embodiment, the mounting hole H
Even when the wire harness W is attached to the panel P having different specifications such as a and Hb, the fixing plate 11 of the clip 10 is fixed to the same position of the wire harness W,
The elastic deformation portions 15 and 16 can be selectively mounted on the mounting holes Ha and Hb only by rotating the rotary plates 13 and 14, and the wire harness W can be mounted on the panel P having different specifications. Therefore, the clip 10 can be fixed to the wire harness W without a work error due to the difference in the opening positions of the mounting holes Ha and Hb, and the workability can be improved.

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the clip according to the present invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment, and this embodiment corresponds to the first aspect of the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 20 denotes a clip formed of a resin material having elasticity.
Is a fixing plate (fixing portion) 21 on which the tape T is wound and fixed along the wire harness W, and a turning fulcrum 22 is supported at a substantially center of the fixing plate 21 so as to be rotatable. Radial pieces 23a-23 extending radially and having different distances to the ends
d, and radiating pieces 23a to 23 of the rotating plate 23.
arrow-shaped elastic deformation portions 24 erected at the ends of d, respectively.
And 27. Here, since the fixing plate 21 and the elastically deforming portions 24-27 have the same configuration as in the above-described embodiment,
Further explanation is omitted.

The clip 20 can be attached to a vehicle body by attaching the wire harness W in which the elastic deformation portions 24 to 27 are inserted into the mounting holes H of the panel P and fixed to the fixing plate 21 in the same manner as in the above embodiment. Deformation parts 24-27 are pivot points 22
Are set up at the ends of the radiating pieces 23a to 23d at different distances from each other. Therefore, even when the opening position of the mounting hole H is different due to the different specifications of the panel P, it is only necessary to turn the turning plate 23. Any one of the elastic deformation portions 24 to 27 can be inserted into the mounting hole H for mounting.

As described above, also in the present embodiment, it is possible to obtain the same operation and effect as in the above-described embodiment. In the above-described embodiment, for example, when the heads of the other elastically deforming portions contact the panel P when the elastically deforming portions 15 and 24 are attached to the mounting holes H, the rotating plates 14 and 23 Due to the deformation, the panel P can be sandwiched between the ends of the elastically deforming portions 15 and 24, and an effect that the vibration can be limited by attaching the panel P more firmly can be obtained.

[0016]

According to the present invention, even if the fixing portion is fixed at a fixed position of the mounting member, only the turning portion is turned, and any one of the elastically deforming portions is inserted into the mounting hole having a different opening position depending on the specification. The elastically deforming portion can be inserted into the mounting hole by selecting one of them, and the mounting member fixed to the fixing portion can be mounted on the mounted member having the mounting hole opened. Therefore, even when the opening positions of the mounting holes are different, the clip fixing operation can be performed without changing the fixing position, and the operation error caused by changing the fixing position can be eliminated. As a result, workability can be improved.
