[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  The present invention relates to a protector that protects a wire harness inserted into a through-hole of a vehicle panel or the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
  A vehicle panel such as an automobile is provided with a plurality of various types of vehicle panels. These vehicle panels are provided with a plurality of through holes into which, for example, a wire harness for connecting an automobile battery and electric parts such as lights is inserted. A cover is attached to the unused through hole and is closed. The closed through-hole is used by removing a cover as necessary and inserting a wire harness connected to the electrical component when a new electrical component is attached.
  A protector is attached to the wire harness used for connecting the electrical system to protect it. The wire harness is rarely wired in a straight line, and most of the wire harness is bent, and a protector is attached to the bent portion. If the wire harness is simply inserted into the through-hole, the wire harness may come into contact with the edge of the through-hole and the wire harness may be damaged, so the wall that forms the through-hole may be covered with a protective member or It has been proposed to attach a protector to the inserted wire harness.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
  However, as described above, even if the wall that forms the through hole is covered with a protective member or the protector is attached to the wire harness inserted into the through hole, the vehicle body always vibrates when moving, It is conceivable that the wire harness and the through hole come into contact with each other due to vibration, and the protective member and the protector may be broken in the long term, and the wire harness may not be reliably protected.
  Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and an object thereof is to provide a protector that can reliably protect a wire harness inserted into a through hole of a vehicle panel or the like.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
  In order to achieve the above object, a protector according to the present invention protects a wire harness inserted into a through hole.BecauseA mounting portion that is mounted in the through hole; and a protection portion that is provided in the mounting portion and prevents the wire harness from contacting other members.In the protector,The protective part accommodates the wire harnessIt is composed of a cylindrical protector composed of a container having a substantially concave cross-section and a lid that closes the opening of the container, and the mounting part is inserted into the through-hole. Provided at the end of the insertion portion on the rear side in the insertion direction, the contact piece that contacts the surface of the wall that forms the through hole, and the contact piece contacts the surface of the wall that forms the through hole, The engaging portion engages with a peripheral wall forming a through hole to prevent the insertion portion from moving backward in the insertion direction, and the mounting portion substantially closes the opening of the contact piece. A plate-shaped blocking portion is provided, and one end portion of the protection portion is disposed at a substantially central portion of the blocking portion. When the mounting portion is mounted on the through-hole, the wall forming the through-hole is formed. And when the protective part has a container having a substantially concave cross section, the opening of the container forms a through hole. Characterized in that extended so as to face the surface of the wall.
[0005]
  By comprising in this way, since the wire harness inserted in the through-hole prevents the contact with other members, such as the wall which latches a through-hole with a protection part, a wire harness contacts with a through-hole. The wire harness can be surely protected without the occurrence of a malfunction due to.
[0006]
  The said protection part is a cylindrical protector in which the said wire harness is accommodatedFromSince the wire harness is accommodated in the cylindrical protective body, the wire harness can be reliably protected with a simple structure.
[0007]
  The cylindrical protector is composed of a container having a substantially concave cross section in which the wire harness is accommodated, and a lid for closing the opening of the container.ing.
  As described above, since the cylindrical protective body includes the container and the lid, the wire harness can be easily accommodated in the cylindrical protective body, and the wire harness can be reliably protected with a simple structure. Become.
[0008]
  In particular,The mounting portion is a substantially cylindrical insertion portion that is inserted into the through-hole, and an abutting piece that is provided at an end of the insertion portion on the rear side in the insertion direction and that abuts against the surface of the wall that forms the through-hole. A locking member that engages with the peripheral wall forming the through hole and prevents the insertion portion from moving rearward in the insertion direction when the contact piece contacts the surface of the wall forming the through hole.Therefore, since it can mount | wear with one operation | movement (one touch) which only inserts an insertion part, mounting | wearing to the through-hole of a protector is easy.
[0009]
  Also,In the mounting partIsA plate-like closing portion is provided so as to substantially close the opening of the contact piece, and one end of the protection portion is disposed at a substantially central portion of the closing portion, and the protection portion is attached to the mounting portion. When mounted in the through hole, along the surface of the wall forming the through hole, and when the protective part has a container having a substantially concave cross section, the opening of the container is on the surface of the wall forming the through hole. Extend to face each otherTherefore, it is difficult for other objects to enter through the through hole. Moreover, since the protection part is provided along the surface of the wall which forms a through-hole, it does not interfere with other mounted objects, for example. Therefore, the wire harness can be more reliably protected.
[0010]
  At the other end of the protective partIsIt is preferable that when the mounting portion is mounted, a concave housing portion with an opening facing the surface of the wall forming the through hole is provided, and a mounting body for attaching a wire harness is provided at the tip of the housing portion ( Claim2).
  By comprising in this way, since a wire harness is attached to an attachment body and this attached wire harness is accommodated in an accommodating part and a protection part, a wire harness can be protected still more reliably.
[0011]

  The insertion portion 6 has a cylindrical shape that is inserted into the through-hole 2 and has a shape corresponding to the shape of the through-hole 2, that is, when inserted into the through-hole 2, almost the entire circumferential direction of the peripheral wall 8 that forms the through-hole 2. It is preferable that the outer surface is in contact with the outer wall and the outer surface is pressed by the peripheral wall 8. It is preferable to provide a taper part which inclines toward the front-end | tip part at the front-end | tip part of the insertion part 6 so that insertion in the through-hole 2 becomes easy.
  The length of the insertion portion 6 is longer than the length of the through hole 2 (the length in the extending direction of the through hole 2). It is preferable to form a recessed portion 9 having a substantially concave cross section that is recessed substantially the same length as the length of the through-hole 2 on the outer surface of the other end portion of the insertion portion 6. When the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through-hole 2, The peripheral wall 8 is in contact with and attached to the recess 9. At this time, the insertion portion 6 can be inserted into the through-hole 2, and when inserted, the outer surface is pressed by the peripheral wall 8, and the recessed portion 9 is smaller than the pressing force, but the peripheral wall 8 contacts the peripheral wall 8. It is preferable to form in a shape that the depression 9 is pressed.
[0013]
  The locking means 7 may be configured in any way, for example, an abutting piece 10 provided at an end of the insertion portion 6 on the rear side in the insertion direction and abutting against the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2. When the abutment piece 10 abuts on the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2, the engagement piece 10 engages with the wall forming the through hole 2 to prevent the insertion portion 6 from moving backward in the insertion direction. It consists of a stop member 11.
[0014]
  The abutting piece 10 is formed in an annular shape at the end (other end portion) on the rear side in the insertion direction of the insertion portion 6 so as to be bent substantially at right angles to the outside, or at a predetermined interval in the circumferential direction. When the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2, the contact piece 10 contacts the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2, and the insertion direction of the insertion portion 2 is formed. This prevents forward movement.
[0015]
  The locking member is formed by a flexible locking piece 11 that protrudes outward from the outer surface, for example, on the outer surface of the portion that is longer in the insertion direction than the length of the through hole 2 of the insertion portion 6. In the illustrated example, three locking pieces 11 are provided at predetermined intervals along the circumferential direction.
  The locking piece 11 is integrally attached to the front end portion of the insertion portion 6 in the insertion direction, and protrudes outward from the outer surface of the insertion portion 6 toward the rear, and the rear end portion is inserted. It is formed to be flexible inward from the outer surface of the portion 6, and when the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2, the locking piece 11 flexes and penetrates through the through hole 2, and after the penetration It is supposed to return to the state.
  The length of the locking piece 11 is such that when the locking piece 11 is flexed and the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2 and the contact piece 10 contacts the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2, The locking piece 11 passes through the through hole 2 and returns to its original state, and the rear end portion of the locking piece 11 comes into contact with the wall opposite to the surface of the wall with which the contact piece 10 comes into contact. It is the dimension by which the movement to the back of the insertion direction of the part 6 (mounting part 4) is blocked | prevented.
[0016]
  The contact piece 10 (the end on the rear side in the insertion direction of the insertion portion 6) is preferably provided with a closing portion 12 that closes or substantially closes the opening. When the closing portion 12 is provided in this way, The protective part 5 is preferably provided in the closing part 12.
  The protection part 5 may be formed in any way as long as it prevents contact with other members of the wire harness 3, such as the peripheral wall 8 forming the through hole 2, for example, as shown in FIGS. In addition, there is a mounting plate 13 that is attached to the wire harness 3 by being wound together with a wire harness 3 by a winding member such as a band member such as a string or a tape.
[0017]
  The mounting plate 13 may have a flat plate shape or a curved plate shape that is curved substantially to R and R on the outer surface of the wire harness 3, and the width thereof is not particularly limited. It is preferable that the dimension is approximately the same as (diameter) to about half of that. The length of the attachment plate 13 may be any dimension as long as the wire harness 3 can be attached.
  One end portion of the attachment plate 13 is attached to the locking piece 11 side of the closing portion 12 so that the wire harness 3 is fixed along the extending direction of the insertion portion 6 at the substantially central portion of the insertion portion 6. . On both sides of one end of the mounting plate 13 are triangular holding pieces 14 for preventing the mounting plate 13 from being inclined due to the weight of the wire harness 3 when the wire harness 3 is mounted on the mounting plate 13. Is provided. On the other end of the mounting plate 13, a ridge 15 is provided at a substantially central portion of the edge of the surface opposite to the surface on which the wire harness 3 abuts as a stopper for the winding member.
[0018]
  A wire harness insertion port 16 is provided which is cut out from the edge portion where the attachment plate 13 of the blocking portion 12 is attached to the insertion portion 6. The wire harness insertion port 16 extends in a direction substantially orthogonal to the attachment surface of the attachment plate 13 and is formed in a rectangular shape with a width that allows the wire harness 3 to be inserted.
[0019]
  An accommodation portion 17 for accommodating the wire harness 3 is provided on the opposite side of each of the closing portion 12 and the contact piece 10 from the attachment plate 13.
  The accommodating part 17 is formed in a substantially concave shape from a flat bottom wall 18 and flat side walls 19, 19 standing on both sides thereof. Here, the substantially concave shape of the accommodating portion 17 means that the wire harness 3 can be accommodated, and all those having a portion for accommodating the U-shaped, V-shaped, etc. wire harness 3 in addition to the substantially concave shape. It means what is included.
[0020]
  The width of the bottom wall 18 (the width between the side walls 19, 19) is formed substantially the same as the width of the wire harness insertion port 16.
  The height of the side wall 19 is formed such that the wire harness 3 can be completely accommodated in the accommodating portion 17. When upper portions of one end portions of both side walls 19 and 19 are respectively attached to both edge portions of the closing portion 12 and the contact piece 10 forming the wire harness insertion port 16, and the mounting portion 4 is mounted to the through hole 2, The accommodating part 17 is arrange | positioned so that the surface vicinity of the wall which forms the through-hole 2 may be followed.
  The accommodating part 17 accommodates the wire harness 3 almost two-dimensionally. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the accommodating part 17 is formed in a straight line according to the wiring harness 3. As shown in FIG. 6, it may be bent arbitrarily depending on the arrangement.
[0021]
  One end portion of the accommodating portion 17 is provided with a closing wall 20 that closes an opening in the longitudinal direction of the accommodating portion 17 (an opening formed by the side walls 19, 19 and the bottom wall 18). The closed portion side end of the closed plate 12 is in contact with or integrally attached to the closed portion 12 or one end of the mounting plate 13, and the mounting plate 13, the closed wall 20 and the bottom wall 18 are formed in an approximately L shape. The wire harness 3 is brought into contact with.
[0022]
  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the other end of the bottom wall 18 is extended from both side walls 19 and 19 and is wound around the wire harness 3 together with the winding member to attach the wire harness 3 in a detachable manner. It is formed as a body 21. The width of the attachment body 21 is formed in the same dimension as the width of the bottom wall 18 in the illustrated example, but may be formed in a dimension different from the width of the bottom wall 18. The length of the attachment body 21 may be any dimension as long as the wire harness 3 can be attached. A ridge 22 is provided as a stopper to prevent the winding member from being displaced at a substantially central portion of an end edge of the surface opposite to the surface on which the wire harness 3 is in contact with the other end of the attachment body 21.
[0023]
  As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the housing portion 17 is detachably locked to the wall forming the through-hole 2 via the locking plate 23 on either side of the side wall 19 of the housing portion 17. It is preferable to provide the latching | locking part 24 to perform. Specifically, the locking portion is, for example, two flexible locking arms that are inserted into and engaged with a locking hole (not shown) provided at a predetermined position of the wall that forms the through hole 2. It is formed as a projecting clip 24 having 25, 25.
[0024]
  In order to protect the wire harness 3 using the protector 1, first, the wire harness 3 that penetrates the through hole 2 or the wire harness 3 that penetrates the through hole 2 is bent into, for example, an L shape, 2 is brought into contact with the mounting plate 13, and the bent wire harness 3 is inserted into the accommodating portion 17 from the wire harness insertion port 16 and brought into contact with the bottom wall 18 and the attachment body 21. Let
[0025]
  The attachment plate 13 and the wire harness 3 that is in contact with the attachment plate 13 are wound together by a winding member such as a tape, and the attachment body 21 and the wire harness 3 that is in contact with the attachment body 21 are wound together by a winding member such as a tape. When wound together, the wire harness 3 is attached to the protector 1 in a bent state. At this time, the protrusions 15 and 22 are provided on the attachment plate 13 and the attachment body 21, so that the wire harness 3 can be reliably attached to the protector 1 without the tape being displaced and coming off.
[0026]
  Next, in order to attach the protector 1 to which the wire harness 3 is attached to the through hole 2, the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2. The locking piece 11 moves flexibly inside the insertion portion 6 by the peripheral wall 8 forming the through hole 2 and moves in the through hole 2. When the contact piece 10 comes into contact with the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2, the locking piece 11 returns to the original state through the through hole 2, and the rear end portion of the locking piece 11 is the contact piece. It abuts against the wall opposite to the surface of the wall with which 10 abuts. In this way, the protector 1 is prevented from moving forward in the insertion direction by the contact piece 10, and the locking piece 11 is prevented from moving backward in the insertion direction, and the protector 1 is mounted in the through hole 2. become. At this time, if the depression 9 is formed on the outer surface of the other end of the insertion portion 6, when the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2, the peripheral wall 8 comes into contact with the depression 9 and the insertion portion 6 is It becomes difficult to remove from the through hole 2.
  The wire harness 3 is attached to the attachment plate 13 and the attachment body 21 by the wrapping member before the protector 1 is attached to the through-hole 2, but may be attached after the attachment.
[0027]
  Therefore,This embodimentSince the protector 1 is attached to the mounting plate 13 at least in the through hole 2 of the wire harness 3 inserted into the through hole 2, for example, even if the vehicle body vibrates, the wire harness 3 and the through hole 2 are caused by the vibration. Therefore, the wire harness 3 can be reliably protected.
[0028]
  Further, since the wire harness 3 is attached at the substantially central portion in the through hole 2 along the extending direction of the through hole 2, the wire harness 3 does not contact the through hole 2 more reliably, and the wire The harness 3 can be protected more reliably.
[0029]
  Moreover, since the protector 1 is attached to the through hole 2 by one operation (one touch) of only inserting the insertion portion 6 into the through hole 2, the attachment to the through hole 2 is easy.
[0030]
  In addition, by providing the blocking portion 12, it is difficult for other objects to enter the opposite side via the through hole 2. Further, when the wire harness insertion port 16 is provided, when the wire harness 3 is attached to the attachment plate 13, for example, compared to a case where a hole is provided in the blocking portion 12 and a wire harness is inserted into the hole, the attachment to the attachment plate 13 is performed. The positioning of the wire harness 3 can be easily performed, and the wire harness 3 can be easily attached.
[0031]
  Moreover, since the wire harness 3 is further protected by the accommodating portion 17 by accommodating the wire harness 3 in the accommodating portion 17, the wire harness 3 can be more reliably protected. In addition, by providing the accommodating portion 17 along the surface of the wall that forms the through hole 2, the wire harness 3 can be protected even more reliably without interfering with other mounted objects. Furthermore, the wire harness 3 is attached to the attachment body 21, so that the wire harness 3 is fixed at two locations of the attachment plate 13 and the attachment body 21, and the wire harness 3 between these fixations is accommodated in the accommodation portion 17. As a result, the wire harness 3 is more reliably protected by the protector 1.
[0032]
  Further, when the clip 24 is provided in the accommodating portion 17, the clip 24 is inserted into a locking hole (not shown) almost simultaneously with or after the protector 1 is mounted in the through hole 2, and is engaged with the locking hole. The accommodating portion 17 is locked at a predetermined position on the wall forming the through hole 2. Specifically, when the clip 24 is inserted into the locking hole, the two locking arms 25 and 25 are flexibly inserted by the peripheral wall forming the locking hole and inserted into the locking hole, and penetrate the locking hole. Then, the two locking arms 25, 25 return to the original state, the wall forming the locking hole comes into contact with the distal end of the locking arm, and the accommodating portion 17 is locked by the clip 24.
[0033]
  As described above, since the insertion direction of the clip 24 is the same as the insertion direction of the insertion portion 6, the protector 1 can be attached with one operation (one touch) even if the clip 24 is provided.
  In addition, the protector 1 is locked at two locations of the mounting portion 4 and the clip 24 by locking the accommodating portion 17 to the wall forming the through hole 2 via the clip 24, so that the protector 1 can be stably held. It can be installed. That is, if there is only one place where the protector is locked, it may rattle due to vibration, and when the wire harness 3 is moved by vibration or the like, the protector may be pulled and damaged in the worst case. Although the protector 1 is locked at two places, the worry is eliminated.
[0034]
  7 to 11 show the mainAkira no puIt is a figure which shows a protector, Said 2ndIn the embodimentThe difference from the protector is that a cylindrical protector 27 is used as the protector 5. The secondIn the embodimentThe same parts as those of the protector are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.
[0035]
  The cylindrical protector 27 is for preventing the contact with the other member of the wire harness 3 such as the peripheral wall 8 that forms the through hole 2 by accommodating the wire harness 3.
  The cylindrical protective body 27 may be formed in any manner, and may be, for example, a cylindrical body having a circular cross section, a triangular shape, a rectangular shape, a polygonal shape, or the like, but is preferably one that can be opened and closed, for example, FIG. As shown in FIG. 11, an openable and closable structure comprising a container 28 having a substantially concave cross section for accommodating the wire harness 3 and a lid 29 for closing the opening of the container 28 is preferable.
  It is preferable that one opening of the cylindrical protective body 27 is located at a substantially central portion in the through hole 2. For example, as shown in the drawing, one opening end is inserted in a substantially central portion of the closing portion 12. It is preferable to be provided so as to open toward the front side in the insertion direction of the portion 6.
[0036]
  That is, the cylindrical protector 27 includes a container 28 having a substantially concave cross section and a lid 29 that closes the opening of the container 28, and when the mounting part 4 is mounted in the through hole 2, the container 28. Are arranged so as to be along the vicinity of the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2. One end portion of the container 28 is disposed at a substantially central portion of the closing portion 12, and the other end portion is disposed at a position spaced apart from the contact piece 10 by a predetermined distance. The lid body is formed such that the front end in the extending direction of the one end portion is closed and formed as the wall portion 30 and a part of the opening portion on the one end portion side is formed as the opening portion of the cylindrical protective body 27. 29 is provided at the end of one side wall of the housing 28 via a hinge 31 so as to be openable and closable, so that the wire harness 3 is housed in an L shape in the housing 28 and fixed by the lid 29. It has become.
[0037]
  A part of the lid body 29 is formed in substantially the same plane as the closing part 12 and the contact piece 10 so as to be formed as a part of the closing part 12 and the contact piece 10 when closed. By closing and mounting, the lid 29 is prevented from being opened by the wall forming the through hole 2. The cylindrical protective body 27 including the lid body 29 and the housing body 28 is arbitrarily bent according to the wiring harness 3, but may be linear.
[0038]
  The accommodating body 28 of the cylindrical protective body 27 is further provided with an accommodating portion 32 extending in accordance with the wiring direction of the wire harness 3. A protruding clip 24 having two flexible locking arms 25, 25 serving as a locking portion 24 is provided on one side of the side walls 33, 33 of the housing portion 32 via a locking plate 23. It has been. In addition, an attachment body 21 is provided at the distal end of the bottom wall 34 of the housing portion 32 so as to be detachably attached to the wire harness 3 together with the wire harness 3 by a winding member.
[0039]
  That is, the secondIn the embodimentIn the protector, by providing a lid 29 that closes a part of the housing portion instead of the mounting plate,Of the present inventionThe protector 35 is configured. Further, a part of the closing portion 12 and the abutting piece 10 has the lid 29, so that it is deformed to open the lid 29, but the second functionally.In the embodimentWith protectorOf the present inventionSince there is almost no difference between the blocking portion 12 and the contact piece 10 with the protector 35, the same reference numerals are given.
[0040]
  in this wayOf the present inventionEven if the protector 35 is constructed, the same effects as described above can be obtained.
  That is, the wire harness 3 that penetrates the through hole 2 or the wire harness 3 that penetrates the through hole 2 is bent, for example, in an L shape, inserted into the housing body 28 and the housing portion 32, and accommodated in the attachment body 21. Make contact. The attachment body 21 and the wire harness 3 in contact with the attachment body 21 are wound together by a winding member such as a tape, and the lid body 29 is closed via the hinge 31 so that the wire harness 3 is bent. Fixed to. At this time, since the protrusions 22 are provided on the attachment body 21, the wire harness 3 can be reliably attached to the protector 1 without the tape being displaced and coming off.
[0041]
  Next, in order to attach the protector 35 to which the wire harness 3 is attached to the through hole 2, the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2. The locking piece 11 moves flexibly inside the insertion portion 6 by the peripheral wall 8 forming the through hole 2 and moves in the through hole 2. When the contact piece 10 comes into contact with the surface of the wall forming the through hole 2, the locking piece 11 returns to the original state through the through hole 2, and the rear end portion of the locking piece 11 is the contact piece. It abuts against the wall opposite to the surface of the wall with which 10 abuts. In this way, the protector 35 is prevented from moving forward in the insertion direction by the contact piece 10, and the locking piece 11 is prevented from moving backward in the insertion direction, so that the protector 35 is attached to the through hole 2. become. At this time, if the depression 9 is formed on the outer surface of the other end of the insertion portion 6, when the insertion portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2, the peripheral wall 8 comes into contact with the depression 9 and the insertion portion 6 is It becomes difficult to remove from the through hole 2.
  In addition, although the attachment by the winding member to the attachment body 21 of the wire harness 3 was performed before mounting | wearing the through-hole 2 with the protector 35, you may make it perform after mounting | wearing.
[0042]
  Therefore, in the protector 35 of the present invention, the wire harness 3 inserted into the through hole 2 is accommodated in the cylindrical protective body 27 and the lid body 29 is in contact with the wall forming the through hole 2. Since the lid body 29 does not open even if there is no locking mechanism such as a locking mechanism, even if the vehicle body vibrates, for example, the wire harness 3 and the through hole 2 do not come into contact with each other due to the vibration. Can be reliably protected.
[0043]
  In addition, since the opening of the cylindrical protective body 27 is provided so as to open toward the front side in the insertion direction of the insertion portion 6 at the substantially central portion in the through-hole 2, the wire harness 3 is more reliably secured. The wire harness 3 can be more reliably protected without coming into contact with the through hole 2. Further, since the cylindrical protector 27 includes the housing 28 and the lid 29, the wire harness 3 can be easily accommodated in the tubular protector 27, so that the wire harness 3 can be protected with a simple structure. Can be done reliably.
[0044]
  Moreover, since the protector 35 is attached to the through-hole 2 by one operation (one-touch) only by inserting the insertion portion 6 into the through-hole 2, the attachment to the through-hole 2 is easy.
  In addition, by providing the blocking portion 12, it is difficult for other objects to enter the opposite side via the through hole 2.
[0045]
  Further, by further accommodating the wire harness 3 in the accommodating portion 32, the wire harness 3 can be further protected by the accommodating portion 32, so that the wire harness 3 can be more reliably protected. Further, by providing the cylindrical protector 27 and the accommodating portion 32 along the surface of the wall that forms the through-hole 2, the wire harness 3 does not interfere with other mounted objects and the like even more reliably. Can be protected. Furthermore, the wire harness 3 is fixed to the cylindrical protector 27 so that the wire harness 3 is fixed at two locations of the cylindrical protector 27 and the attachment body 21, and the wire harness 3 is accommodated in the accommodating portion 32. Therefore, the wire harness 3 is more reliably protected by the protector 35.

  When the clip 24 is provided in the accommodating portion 32, the clip 24 is inserted into a locking hole (not shown) almost simultaneously with or after the mounting of the protector 1 in the through hole 2, and is engaged with the locking hole. The accommodating portion 32 is locked at a predetermined position on the wall forming the through hole 2. Specifically, when the clip 24 is inserted into the locking hole, the two locking arms 25 and 25 are flexibly inserted by the peripheral wall forming the locking hole and inserted into the locking hole, and penetrate the locking hole. Then, the two locking arms 25, 25 return to the original state, the wall forming the locking hole comes into contact with the tip of the locking arm, and the accommodating portion 32 is locked by the clip 24.
[0047]
  As described above, since the insertion direction of the clip 24 is the same as the insertion direction of the insertion portion 6, the protector 35 can be attached by one operation (one touch) even if the clip 24 is provided.
  In addition, the protector 35 is locked at the two locations of the mounting portion 4 and the clip 24 by locking the housing portion 32 to the wall forming the through-hole 2 via the clip 24, so that the protector 35 can be stably held. It can be installed. That is, if there is only one place where the protector is locked, it may rattle due to vibration, and when the wire harness 3 is moved by vibration or the like, the protector may be pulled and damaged in the worst case. Although the protector 35 is locked at two places, the worry is eliminated.

【The invention's effect】
  In short, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the wire harness inserted into the through-hole is prevented from coming into contact with other members such as a wall that locks the through-hole by the protective portion. The wire harness can be reliably protected without causing problems due to contact with the holes.
[0049]
  Also,Since the wire harness is housed in the cylindrical protective body, the wire harness can be reliably protected with a simple structure.. In addition, since the cylindrical protective body includes the container and the lid, the wire harness can be easily accommodated in the cylindrical protective body, and the wire harness can be easily configured. Protection will be ensured.
[0050]
  In addition,By configuring the mounting portion with the insertion portion, the contact piece, and the locking member, mounting can be performed with only one operation (one touch) of inserting the insertion portion, so mounting to the through hole of the protector is easy.. Since it is difficult for other objects to enter through the through hole, and the protective portion is provided along the surface of the wall forming the through hole, for example, it does not interfere with other mounted objects. The harness can be more reliably protected.
[0051]
  Claim2According to the invention described in (1), the wire harness is attached to the attachment body, and the attached wire harness is housed in the housing portion and the protection portion, so that the wire harness can be further reliably protected.
