  Hereinafter, the protector 20 according to the embodiment will be described. 1 and 2 are perspective views showing the protector 20, and FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the protector 20. 1 to 3 show a state in which the protector 20 is attached to the attachment target parts 11 and 13 that are part of the vehicle body.

  The protector 20 is configured to protect the wire harness 18 routed to the vehicle body in a state of being attached to the vehicle body. Here, the wire harness 18 is configured such that a plurality of electric wires are bundled while being appropriately branched in accordance with the arrangement positions of various electric devices to be connected.

  The protector 20 protects at least a part of the wire harness 18 by being attached to the vehicle body while covering at least a part (here, a part) of the wire harness.

  The protector 20 is a member molded by resin or the like, and includes a protector body 22, a first fixing portion 30, and a second fixing portion 50. In the present embodiment, a part of the protector 20 excluding the movable clamp 40 described later will be described as an example in which the protector 20 is integrally molded with resin or the like, but this is not necessarily required. For example, the part used as the lid | cover of the protector 20 may be made into the different body from the other part.

  The protector body 22 is configured to cover at least a part of the wire harness 18. Here, the protector main body 22 is formed in a cylindrical shape in which one side opening of the semi-cylindrical portion 23 is closed by the lid portion 24, and is configured to cover the entire outer periphery of a part of the wire harness 18. But the protector main body 22 does not need to be formed in the cylinder shape which covers the whole outer periphery of the wire harness 18, for example, the half cylinder shape formed in the cross-sectional U shape may be sufficient. Moreover, the protector main body 22 is formed in the shape along the arrangement | positioning path | route of the wire harness 18, and the cylinder shape which bends in an L shape here. The protector body 22 only needs to have a shape along the arrangement path of the wire harness 18, and may have another bent shape, a curved shape, a linear shape, or the like. A part of the wire harness 18 in the longitudinal direction is accommodated in the protector main body 22, and the wire harness 18 extends outward from both ends of the protector main body 22.

  The protector body 22 is provided with a first fixing part 30 and a second fixing part 50. The 1st fixing | fixed part 30 and the 2nd fixing | fixed part 50 are comprised so that attachment to the attachment object parts 11 and 13 which are each a part of a vehicle body is possible. Here, a first fixing portion 30 is provided at a side position of one end portion of the protector main body 22, and a second fixing portion 50 is provided at a side position of the other end portion of the protector main body 22. But the installation position of the 1st fixing | fixed part 30 and the 2nd fixing | fixed part 50 is not restricted to the said example, For example, you may be provided in the longitudinal direction intermediate part of the protector main body 22. FIG. Further, the protector body 22 may be provided with a fixing portion having the same configuration as the first fixing portion 30 or the second fixing portion 50 described below, or a fixing portion having another configuration.

  The first fixing part 30 and the second fixing part 50 can be attached to the vehicle body by being pressed against the vehicle body in a predetermined direction. More specifically, the 1st fixing part 30 and the 2nd fixing part 50 are attached to a vehicle body by pressing in the direction orthogonal to the attachment object parts 11 and 13 in a vehicle body, respectively. For this reason, if the postures of the attachment target parts of the first fixing part 30 and the second fixing part 50 are different, the working direction A for attaching the first fixing part 30 to the attachment target part 11 (a movable clamp described later) The direction in which 40 moves from the retracted position to the protruding position) is different from the working direction B for attaching the second fixing portion 50 to the attachment target portion 13 (see FIG. 1). For this reason, it is difficult to simultaneously perform the mounting operation of the first fixing portion 30 and the mounting operation of the second fixing portion 50 by pressing the entire protector 20 in a certain direction. Therefore, in the protector 20, the mounting operation of the first fixing portion 30 and the second fixing portion 50 can be performed separately.

  For convenience of explanation, the first fixing unit 30 will be described after the second fixing unit 50 is described.

  The second fixing portion 50 can be attached to the vehicle body by being pressed against the vehicle body in a predetermined direction.

  More specifically, a long vehicle body side fixing member 14 projects from a mounting target portion 13 of the vehicle body. Here, the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is an elongated plate-like member formed of metal or the like, and an edge portion projects from both side portions thereof. The vehicle body side fixing member 14 is fixed to the attachment target portion 13 by welding or the like. The vehicle body side fixing member 14 is formed with at least one (here, a plurality) locking holes 14h (here, triangular holes). The vehicle body side fixing member 14 is also called a bracket.

  When the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is inserted into the second fixing portion 50, the second fixing portion 50 is attached to the attachment target portion 13. That is, the second fixing portion 50 is formed with a fixing member insertion hole 52 through which the vehicle body side fixing member 14 can be inserted. Here, the fixing member insertion hole 52 has a cross-sectional shape corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the vehicle body-side fixing member 14, more specifically, a hole having a rectangular cross-sectional shape in which an intermediate portion on one long side is recessed. It is formed into a shape. Further, a fixing member locking projection 53 that can be locked to the locking hole 14h is formed on the inner surface of the fixing member insertion hole 52 (see FIG. 1). The fixing member locking projection 53 is formed in a protruding shape having a height dimension that increases sequentially in the insertion direction of the vehicle body side fixing member 14. When the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is inserted into the fixing member insertion hole 52, the fixing member locking protrusion 53 is locked to any one of the locking holes 14 h, and the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is locked to the second fixing portion 50. Inserted and fixed. That is, by pushing the second fixing portion 50 into the attachment target portion 13 in the direction (working direction B) in which the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is inserted into the fixing member insertion hole 52, the second fixing portion 50 is attached to the attachment target portion. 13 is attached. Usually, the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is fixed in an orthogonal posture with respect to the surface of the attachment target portion 13, and therefore, the working direction B of the second fixing portion 50 is normally set with respect to the surface of the attachment target portion 13. The directions are orthogonal. However, it is not essential that the vehicle body side fixing member 14 is in an orthogonal posture with respect to the surface of the attachment target portion 13, and therefore, the working direction B of the second fixing portion 50 is orthogonal to the surface of the attachment target portion 13. It is not essential to be in the direction. Further, the configuration of the second fixing portion is not limited to the above example. For example, the structure corresponding to the clamp main body part 42 and the latching | locking part 46 of the movable clamp 40 mentioned later may be the structure by which the clamp main body part 42 protruded.

  The 1st fixing | fixed part 30 is demonstrated. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line IV-IV in FIG. 3, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VV in FIG. FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing the protector 20 in a state before the first fixing portion 30 is fixed to the attachment target portion 11. 7 is a bottom view showing the protector 20 in a state before the protector 20 is fixed to the attachment target parts 11 and 13, FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along line VIII-VIII in FIG. 7, and FIG. FIG. FIG. 7 shows a state in which the lid 24 is removed. 10 is a side view showing the movable clamp 40, FIG. 11 is a front view showing the movable clamp 40, FIG. 12 is a plan view showing the movable clamp 40, and FIG. 13 is a bottom view showing the movable clamp 40. is there.

  The first fixed portion 30 includes a clamp support portion 32 and a movable clamp 40, and can be attached to the vehicle body by pressing the movable clamp 40 in a predetermined direction against the vehicle body.

  More specifically, an attachment hole 12 is formed in the attachment target portion 11 of the vehicle body. Here, the attachment hole 12 is formed in a long hole shape.

  The first fixed portion 30 is attached to the attachment target portion 11 by locking the movable clamp 40 in the attachment hole 12.

  That is, the movable clamp 40 is configured to be able to be locked in the mounting hole 12, and the first fixed portion 30 is attached to the mounting target portion 11 by the movable clamp 40 being locked in the mounting hole 12. .

  More specifically, the movable clamp 40 protrudes from the long clamp body 42, a locking portion 46 provided on one end side of the clamp body 42, and the other end side of the clamp body 42. And a head portion 49.

  Here, the clamp main body 42 is formed in a long cylindrical shape, and a part of the surface thereof is thinned.

  The locking portion 46 is configured to be locked to the mounting hole 12 by being inserted into the mounting hole 12. More specifically, the locking portion 46 includes a locking main body portion 47 and a pair of locking pieces 48 extending from the distal end portion of the locking main body portion 47 toward the proximal end portion. The locking main body 47 is formed in a plate shape that is thinner than the thickness of the minor axis direction in the cross-sectional shape of the clamp main body 42, and the tip end portion is formed in a shape that gradually becomes narrower toward the tip end side. ing. The pair of locking pieces 48 are formed in a rectangular plate shape extending so as to incline outward from the distal end portion of the locking main body portion 47 toward the proximal end side. In addition, a locking recess 48 a that opens outward and toward the tip is formed at the tip of the pair of locking pieces 48. And if this latching | locking part 46 is inserted in the attachment hole 12, the outer surface of a pair of latching piece 48 will be pressed on the peripheral part of the attachment hole 12, and it will elastically deform inward. When the locking portion 46 is further pushed in and the pair of locking pieces 48 get over the peripheral edge of the mounting hole 12, the pair of locking pieces 48 elastically return outward, and the tip portions of the pair of locking pieces 48 ( Here, the locking recess 48a) is locked to the peripheral edge of the mounting hole 12 from the opposite side in the insertion direction. Here, the pair of locking pieces 48 are locked to the peripheral edge of the mounting hole 12 in a state of being slightly elastically deformed inward (see the arrows in FIG. 5). Thereby, rattling between the locking portion 46 and the mounting hole 12 is suppressed. Usually, the locking portion 46 is inserted into the mounting hole 12 along the central axis direction. For this reason, the insertion direction (working direction A) of the movable clamp 40 is the direction of the central axis of the mounting hole 12, that is, the direction orthogonal to the surface of the mounting target portion 11. For this reason, the work direction A and the work direction B are different if the surfaces of the attachment target parts 11 and 13 are not in a parallel relationship with each other. In the present embodiment, the work direction A of the movable clamp 40 (the movement direction from a retracted position to a projecting position, which will be described later) is set when the second fixed portion 50 is attached when the second fixed portion 50 is attached to the attachment target portion 13. An example different from the work direction B pressed against the target part 13 will be described. However, the work direction A and the work direction B may be the same.

  Here, the head portion 49 is formed in an oval shape protruding to the outer periphery of the proximal end portion of the clamp main body portion 42. As will be described later, the head portion 49 abuts on the clamp support portion 32 and restricts the movement of the movable clamp 40 in the protruding direction with the movable clamp 40 protruding to the protruding position with respect to the clamp support portion 32. Have a role.

  In addition, a first protrusion 43 is formed in a portion of the clamp main body 42 closer to the head portion 49 (a clamp insertion portion 36 described later) than the locking portion 46. Here, the first projecting portion 43 is formed at the position of the end portion on the side of the locking portion 46 of the clamp main body portion 42 and on both surfaces of the clamp main body portion 42 along the major axis direction in the cross-sectional shape thereof. ing. The 1st protrusion part 43 has a protrusion dimension of the grade which can be latched to the clamp insertion part 36 mentioned later. Further, the first protrusion 43 is formed in a shape in which the protrusion dimension gradually increases toward the opposite side of the locking part 46. Therefore, when the movable clamp 40 is pushed into the insertion hole 36h from the locking portion 46 side, the first protrusion 43 can exceed the clamp insertion portion 36 due to elastic deformation or the like on the clamp support portion 32 side. When the first protrusion 43 exceeds the clamp insertion part 36, the first protrusion 43 is engaged with the clamp insertion part 36 so that the engagement part 46 interferes with the clamp insertion part 36. Will not return.

  Further, on the outer periphery of the clamp main body 42, the second protrusion 44 that abuts on the clamp insertion part 36 and suppresses the movement of the movable clamp 40 in the protrusion direction while the movable clamp 40 is in a retracted position described later. It is installed. Here, the 2nd protrusion part 44 is formed in the both surfaces along the major axis direction in the cross-sectional shape among the clamp main body parts 42 in the position from the head part 49 rather than the said 1st protrusion part 43. As shown in FIG. . The second projecting portion 44 has a projecting dimension such that the second projecting portion 44 can be brought into contact with the insertion hole 36h, and the portion of the clamp main body 42 where the second projecting portion 44 is formed is located in the inner surface of the insertion hole 36h. It is arrange | positioned in the state pressed on. The second projecting portion 44 may be configured to contact the opening side of the clamp insertion portion 36. Thereby, the movable clamp 40 is hold | maintained in a retracted position, and the rattling is suppressed. In addition, the second projecting portion 44 is formed so that the projecting dimension gradually increases toward the locking portion 46, and it is difficult to remove the clamp insertion portion 36 in the working direction A, but in the direction opposite to the working direction A. It can be easily inserted at a position where it abuts on the clamp insertion portion 36.

  The clamp support part 32 protrudes from the protector body 22 at a fixed position laterally to the other end of the protector body 22. The clamp support portion 32 has a protruding position (see FIGS. 4 and 5) for locking the movable clamp 40 in the mounting hole 12 and a retreat position (see FIGS. 8 and 9) for retracting the movable clamp 40 from the vehicle body. It is comprised so that it may move between. And the 1st fixing | fixed part 30 is fixed to the attachment object part 11 of a vehicle body by the movable clamp 40 moving to a protrusion position and latching to the attachment hole 12. FIG.

  More specifically, the clamp support part 32 has a protective cylinder part 34 and a clamp insertion part 36.

  The protective cylinder portion 34 is formed in a cylindrical shape (here, a long cylindrical shape) through which at least the clamp main body portion 42 can be inserted. The axial dimension of the protective cylinder part 34 is formed so as to accommodate at least the locking part 46.

  A clamp insertion part 36 is formed in a part of the protective cylinder part 34 in the axial direction. Here, the clamp insertion part 36 is formed in the opening part of the one end side of the protection cylinder part 34. As shown in FIG. The clamp insertion part 36 is protected from two opposite positions of the hook-like part 37 and a hook-like part 37 projecting inward from a position on the inner side (slightly inside) of the opening edge of the protective cylinder part 34. And an extended portion 38 protruding along the axial direction of the cylindrical portion 34. Here, the bowl-shaped part 37 is formed in an oval shape in accordance with the inner peripheral shape of the protective cylinder part 34. Further, the pair of extension portions 38 extend from a pair of side portions along the major axis direction of the bowl-shaped portion 37. The distal end portion of the extension portion 38 protrudes inside the protective cylinder portion 34. An insertion hole 36h through which the clamp main body 42 can be inserted is formed by the inner peripheral portion of the bowl-shaped portion 37 and the inner surface of the extended portion 38. The insertion hole 36h is formed in an oval shape that is larger in the major axis direction than the oval cross-sectional shape of the clamp main body 42.

  The movable clamp 40 is supported so as to be movable between a retracted position and a protruding position along the longitudinal direction in the insertion hole 36h. When the movable clamp 40 moves to the protruding position, the head portion 49 is moved to the clamp insertion portion 36. Further movement in the projecting direction is restricted by contacting.

  Here, the retracted position is a position where the locking portion 46 is retracted from the vehicle body (see FIGS. 8 and 9). In the present embodiment, the locking portion 46 is accommodated in the protective cylinder portion 34 at the retracted position. Moreover, in this state, the 1st protrusion part 43 has latched by the clamp penetration part 36, and the contact with the latching | locking part 46 and the clamp penetration part 36 is avoided. In this state, the second projecting portion 44 is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 36h (here, the inner surface of the extension portion 38), and the movable clamp 40 is held at the retracted position. It is suppressed.

  Further, the protruding position is a position where the locking portion 46 protrudes toward the vehicle body from the retracted position (see FIGS. 4 and 5). In the present embodiment, at the protruding position, the head portion 49 is locked to the clamp insertion portion 36, and the entire locking portion 46 protrudes from the protective cylinder portion 34. In this state, the locking portion 46 is locked to the attachment hole 12 in a retaining shape, and the protective cylinder portion 34 of the clamp support portion 32 is in contact with the surface of the attachment target portion 11, so that the first protrusion 43 Is fixedly attached to the attachment target portion 11. The protruding amount of the locking portion 46 is determined according to the thickness dimension of the attachment target portion 11 and is adjusted by the length dimension of the clamp main body portion 42, the axial dimension of the protective cylinder portion 34, and the like.

  The insertion hole 36h is formed in an oval shape larger in the major axis direction than the oval cross-sectional shape of the clamp main body 42. The movable clamp 40 is also movably supported in the major axis direction of the insertion hole 36h (that is, the direction intersecting the working direction A of the movable clamp 40) by this large dimension.

  An operation of attaching the protector 20 configured as described above to the vehicle body will be described.

  First, the protector 20 having the movable clamp 40 moved to the retracted position is prepared. In the protector 20 in this state, the engaging portion 46 of the movable clamp 40 is contained in the protective cylinder portion 34. Therefore, when the engaging portion 46 comes into contact with an external part or the like during the transportation of the protector 20, the engaging portion 46 is engaged. The breakage of the stopper 46 is suppressed. Moreover, since the 1st protrusion part 43 is contact | abutting to the clamp insertion part 36, the contact with the latching | locking part 46 and the clamp penetration part 36 is also avoided, and the failure | damage of the latching | locking part 46 is also suppressed by this. . Moreover, since the 2nd protrusion part 44 is pressed on the internal peripheral surface of the insertion hole 36h, the movable clamp 40 is hold | maintained in a retracted position, and the rattling is suppressed. Even if the movable clamp 40 moves from the retracted position to the protruding position, the movable clamp 40 can be easily returned to the retracted position.

  And the protector 20 is arrange | positioned near the attachment object parts 11 and 13 of a vehicle body, the 2nd fixing | fixed part 50 is pressed toward the attachment object part 13 along the working direction B, and the vehicle body side fixing member 14 of the attachment object part 13 is shown. Is inserted into the fixing member insertion hole 52 of the second fixing portion 50. Thereby, the 2nd fixing | fixed part 50 is attached to the attachment object site | part 13. As shown in FIG.

  Next, in a state where the clamp support portion 32 is in contact with the surface of the attachment target portion 11, the movable clamp 40 is pushed along the working direction A from the retracted position toward the protruding position, and is inserted into the attachment hole 12 of the attachment target portion 11. insert. And if the latching | locking part 46 of the movable clamp 40 is latched and latched to the attachment hole 12, the 1st fixing | fixed part 30 will be attached to the attachment object site | part 11. FIG.

  When the movable clamp 40 is pushed into the mounting hole 12, a relative positional error between the vehicle body side fixing member 14 and the mounting hole 12, or a relative position between the first fixing portion 30 and the second fixing portion 50. When there is a position error, the movable clamp 40 can be moved along the major axis direction of the insertion hole 36h according to the error. Therefore, even when such an error exists, the first fixing portion 30 can be attached to the attachment target portion 11.

  According to the protector 20 configured as described above, after the second fixed portion 50 is attached to the vehicle body, the movable clamp 40 is moved to the protruding position and the movable clamp 40 is locked to the attachment hole 12, so that the first The fixed part 30 is attached to the vehicle body. For this reason, when the protector 20 is attached at a plurality of locations, at least one attachment operation by the first fixing portion 30 can be performed separately from the attachment operation of the other second fixing portion 50.

  In particular, when the work direction A of the first fixed part 30 and the work direction B of the second fixed part 50 are different, it can be said that it is effective because separate attachment work can be performed.

  Further, the locking portion 46 of the movable clamp 40 is locked to the mounting hole 12, and the clamp support portion 32 is brought into contact with the mounting target portion 11 of the vehicle body, so that the first fixed portion 30 can be more reliably and simply mounted. Can be installed on.

  In addition, since the first fixed portion 30 abuts on the clamp insertion portion 36, interference between the locking portion 46 of the movable clamp 40 and the clamp insertion portion 36 is suppressed, so that damage to the locking portion 46 is suppressed. .

  In addition, since the second projecting portion 44 abuts the clamp insertion portion 36 in a state where the movable clamp 40 is in the retracted position and the movement of the movable clamp 40 in the projecting direction is suppressed, the movable clamp in the storage and transportation state 40 rattling is suppressed.

  Moreover, since the 2nd protrusion part 44 is formed in the shape where a protrusion dimension becomes large sequentially toward the latching | locking part 46, the 2nd protrusion part 44 is the insertion hole 36h in the state before attaching the protector 20 to a vehicle body. Even if the second protrusion 44 is moved away from the protrusion and moved toward the protrusion position, the second protrusion 44 can be easily returned to the position where it abuts on the clamp insertion part 36.

  Moreover, since the latching | locking part 46 of the movable clamp 40 is accommodated in the protection cylinder part 34 in the state in which the movable clamp 40 exists in a retracted position, damage to the latching | locking part 46 by contact with an external component can be suppressed.

  Further, since the movable clamp 40 is movable in a direction intersecting with the working direction A, the first fixed portion 30 absorbs an error in the relative positional relationship between the first fixed portion 30 and the second projecting portion 44 and the first fixed portion. The part 30 and the second fixing part 50 can be attached to the vehicle body.

  As described above, the present invention has been described in detail. However, the above description is illustrative in all aspects, and the present invention is not limited thereto. It is understood that countless variations that are not illustrated can be envisaged without departing from the scope of the present invention.
