Description
WIRE HARNESS ASSEMBLY HAVING COLOR CODED WIRES
Technical Field
The present invention relates generally to wire harness assemblies of the type typically comprising a plurality of wires bundled and wrapped together to form a multiple wire cable generally having several branches extending therefrom. More particularly, the present invention relates to the marking of the opposite ends of each individual wire with its own particular code uniquely identifying that wire so as to distinguish the opposite ends of that wire from the other wires in the wire harness assembly-
Background Art
Wire harness assemblies comprise a plurality of elongated wires bundled together, usually being wrapped with tape and housed in a protective conduit, to form an elongated multiple-wire cable, generally having one or more branches extending from a central axially extending truck. Such wire harness assemblies are useful in various apparatus, including for example appliances, automobiles, aircraft, ships and building structures, wherein electrical connections must be made to establish distinct circuits between relatively distantly spaced electrical components, such as for example electric motors, instruments, lights, fans and other types of electrical equipment.
In automobiles, one or more wire harness assemblies are used to electrically connect the various electrical components in the interior of the vehicle to the vehicle's battery or to a fuse box, which in turn is connected to the vehicle's battery. Wire harness assemblies may also be used to interconnect various electrical components to each other or to a junction box. Typically, an
automobile wire harness assembly will have a main axially extending trunk with several side branches extending therefrom leading to various electrical apparatus disposed at different locations all around the automobile. The main truck and each of the branches comprises a plurality of individual wires, each of which must be electrically connected to a particular pin or socket of a connector or to a terminal adapted for subsequent cqnnection to a specific electrical component in order to form the proper electrical circuits necessary to power the electrical component for operation.
As the wire harness assembly or assemblies, as the case may be, are hidden from view from within the vehicle interior below the floor, or above the headliner, or within the side panels and doors of the vehicle, it is extremely important during manufacture that all of the individual wires of the wire harness assembly or assemblies are properly connected to a specific terminal or a particular pin or socket of a connector. In order to facilitate the proper connection of the individual wires to their respective connection members, i.e. terminal or connector, it is necessary to be able to distinguish each wire from the other wires in the harness assembly. One scheme for identifying individual wires is to use a plurality of wires having insulation of different color configuration, either of a solid color or striped with two or more colors, in forming the wire harness assembly such that no two wires have the same color configuration. While practicable, using such an identification scheme is expensive to implement in that several different color configurations of insulated wire must be purchased and maintained on hand.
Another scheme for identifying individual wires is to apply an identifying indicia to the insulation
of each wire at each end of the wire, preferably sufficiently inwardly from the ends of the wire to accommodate stripping of the wire for electrical connection. Such identifying indicia may comprise a separate collar bearing a numeric, alpha or alphanumeric code wrapped about the wire, or a colored tape wrapped about the wire, or an indelible indicia code actually stamped onto the surface of the wire insulation. Applying a separate collar or tape to the wire insulation is again expensive and time-consuming and stamping an indicia code onto the wire insulation requires expensive stamping machinery.
Summary of the Invention It is an object of the present invention to provide a wire harness assembly comprised of a plurality of wires having insulation of the same color, with each wire having its opposite ends marked with a unique indicia code. it is a further object of the present invention to provide a wire harness assembly comprised of a plurality of wires having insulation of the same color, with each wire having its opposite ends marked with a unique indicia code comprising one or more colored markings applied to the wire insulation near the terminus of the wire .
A wire harness subassembly comprising a plurality of individual insulated wires bundled and wrapped into a cable having a least two ends, each end of the cable adapted to receive at least one electrical connection means, for example a terminal or a connector, is provided wherein each individual wire has its opposite ends marked with an indicia code uniquely identifying that wire and distinguishing the opposite ends of that wire from the ends of all other wires having the same color of
insulation, the indicia code comprising one or more colored markings applied to the insulation of the wire near each end of the wire. Preferably, all wires in the wire harness assembly have the same color insulation and each^ wire is marked with a series of colored markings of one or more colors. In this manner, the opposite ends of each individual wire are uniquely identified whereby the ends of the individual wires may be distinguished one from another and the opposite ends of each individual wire may be identified at different ends of the harness subassembly.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a wire harness assembly;
Figure 2 is an enlarged perspective view of an end of a cable of the wire harness assembly of Figure 1 prior to attaching a connector thereto; and

Detailed Description of a Preferred Embodiment
The wire harness subassembly of the present invention is useful in manufacturing wire harnesses suitable for use in a wide variety of apparatus, including large appliances, structures, aircraft, ships and, in particular, automobiles, wherein electrical connections must be made between relatively distantly spaced electrical contacts. The wire harness subassembly of the present invention will be discussed herein in reference to a wire harness of the type commonly used in automobiles.
Referring now particularly to Figures 1 and 2 of the drawing, there is depicted therein an automobile wire harness 10 comprised of a plurality of wires 20, each having an insulation layer 22, bundled together to form a cable 12, which may be directly wrapped with tape or, as depicted, may be disposed within a conduit 30 comprising a tubular member 32 and, when desired, also a foam outer covering 34, and wrapped with a tape 36. The wire harness 10 has an axially extending central main line 14, commonly referred to as a trunk, and several sublines 16, commonly referred to as branches, extending outwardly therefrom. The branches 16 may be of different lengths and extend in any direction and contortion to reach the various electrical components (not shown) to which it is desired to transmit electrical signals.
The bundled and wrapped wires form a wire harness subassembly having multiple endpoints to which various connection means 40 must be correctly connected to form the wire harness 10 and provide the necessary circuits for transmitting electrical signals, in particular power signals, throughout the automobile. The various connection means, which may include for example pin connectors 42, socket connectors 44 or terminals 46, are connected to the ends of the branches 16 of the wire harness subassembly to facilitate electrical connection to the various electrical components scattered through the automobile. The truck 14 of the wire harness 10 is also connected to connection means 40 for facilitating electrical connection to a power supply (not shown) , such as a battery or a fuse box, or a junction box (not shown) or a grounding bus bar (not shown) .
Referring now to Figure 3, each individual wire 20 is marked on its insulation 22 at its
opposite ends with an indicia code 24 uniquely identifying that wire and distinguishing the opposite ends of that wire from the ends of all other wires having the same color of insulation. In accordance with the present invention, the indicia code comprises at least one colored markings 50, such as a bar or a dash, applied to the insulation 22 of the wire 20 near each end of the wire. Preferably, all wires 20 in the wi^e harness assembly have the same color insulation 22 and each wire is marked with a series of colored markings 50, which may comprise several markings of one color or of different colors, disposed in abutting or axially spaced relationship. The colored markings 50 may be readily applied, for example, by jet inking or by contact inking during the process of cutting the individual wires that make up the harness to the desired length, which as noted before may varying amongst wires. In this manner, the opposite ends of each individual wire 20 are uniquely identified whereby the ends of the individual wires may be distinguished one from another and the opposite ends of each individual wire may be identified at different ends of the harness subassembly. When installing the connection means to the ends of the branch lines 16 and the trunk line 14, the opposite ends of any given wire 40 may be readily identified by the colored markings 50 thereby enabling the installer to ensure that the ends of that wire will be connected to the proper contacts on their respective connection means and, therefore, ensuring that the necessary circuits within the wire harness 10 are correctly established. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, all wires 40 have the same color insulation and each individual wire is marked on its
insulation with a series of colored markings 50, with each marking by its color and position, as well as the absence of a marking in a particular position, uniquely identifying a particular wire. Additionally, a particular color in a particular position may denote a selected item of information useful during the installation of the connection means to the ends of the various cable ends of the wire harness 10, or it may convey ^product or customer information.
For example, as illustrated in Figure 3, several of the wires 40 of the end of this particular cable are marked near their ends, but' sufficiently upstream from the actual terminus of the wire to accommodate stripping of the end portion of the insulation to facilitate electrical connection, with a series of colored markings 50, shown, for illustration purposes only, as being located in up to four spaced positions, with the markings being of a first color 52, a second color 54, a third color 56. In this example, the twelve wires at the end of this cable are uniquely identified through the use of only three colors. The twelve possible color combinations of the dashes in the first and second positions, or the presence of a colored dash in the first position and the absence of a colored dash in the second position, inward from the end of the wire uniquely identify each of the twelve wires. The presence of additional dashes in either or both of the two further inboard positions from the end of the wire serve to communicate additional information as these dashes are not needed, in the case of a twelve wire cable, to identify the wire per se. As will be apparent to persons skilled in the art, various modifications and adaptations of the color coding system hereinbefore described will
become readily apparent without departure from the spirit and scope of the invention, the scope of which is defined in the appended claims.
