Description
【0001】[0001]
本考案は、ワイヤハーネス組立ての自動化を可能ならしめる自動車用ワイヤハ ーネス構造に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a wire harness structure for an automobile, which enables automation of wire harness assembly.

例えば自動車に設備される各種の電気機器に接続される多数本の電線束すなわ ちワイヤハーネスを構成するには、図1に示すように所定の長さに切断せしめた 多数本の電線1を用意し、次いでこれら多数本の電線1を所定形状に整形せしめ た上でテーピング2等により結束せしめてワイヤハーネス3となし、さらに該ワ イヤハーネスの各先端には各々の電気機器(図示せず)に接続されるコネクタ4 を接続しているものである。 For example, in order to construct a bundle of a large number of electric wires, that is, a wire harness, which is connected to various electric devices installed in an automobile, a large number of electric wires 1 cut into a predetermined length as shown in Fig. 1 is used. The wire harness 3 is prepared and then shaped into a predetermined shape and then bound by taping 2 or the like to form a wire harness 3. Further, each electric device (not shown) is provided at each end of the wire harness. ) Is connected to the connector 4.

ところが自動車用として形成される上記ワイヤハーネス3は、その最大束部は 100本以上もある電線1が束ねられ、さらにその最大部長さは、1m〜1.5 m程度の長さを有する莫大なものであった。またこのワイヤハーネスの形状は、 自動車内に設備される電気機器の設備数が増大するにつれて複雑形状を呈して、 そのワイヤハーネスの配索経路も複雑なものであった。従って、このような莫大 かつ複雑形状のワイヤハーネスを手作業で作成する従来例では、そのワイヤハー ネスの製作に多大なる費用と時間がかかるという不具合がある。そこでこの不具 合を解消するためにワイヤハーネスの自立組立の研究開発も進められているが、 幹線に対して多数の分岐線が形成される複雑形状のワイヤハーネスにあっては、 自動組立が困難であった。 However, in the wire harness 3 formed for an automobile, the maximum bundle portion is bundled with 100 or more electric wires 1, and the maximum portion length is a huge length of about 1 m to 1.5 m. It was a thing. Further, the shape of this wire harness has become complicated as the number of electric devices installed in the automobile has increased, and the wiring route of the wire harness has also become complicated. Therefore, in the conventional example in which such a huge and complicated wire harness is manually created, there is a problem that it takes a lot of time and money to manufacture the wire harness. Therefore, in order to eliminate this inconvenience, research and development of self-assembly of wire harnesses are underway, but in the case of wire harnesses with complicated shapes in which many branch lines are formed with respect to the main line, automatic assembly is difficult Met.

An object of the present invention is to provide a wire harness for an automobile that enables automatic assembly by preparing and connecting the core wire of the trunk wire and the core wire of the branch wire by ultrasonic welding means to form a wire harness.

以下に本考案を図面に示す実施例に基いて詳細に説明する。 The present invention will be described in detail below based on the embodiments shown in the drawings.
【0006】 図2において、11は断面形状が方形である偏平なる芯線12の多数本を、絶 縁シート13で被覆して配列接着したテープ状のワイヤハーネス幹線であり、1 4は通常の被覆電線15を複数本束ねてなるワイヤハーネス枝線であって、この ワイヤハーネス枝線14の一端には、コネクタ16が接続され、またその他端に は中間接続片17が接続されている。この中間接続片17の構成は、図3で明示 するように断面形状が方形である偏平なる芯線18の複数を、絶縁シート19に より配列接着されているものであって、この中間接続片17の各芯線18の夫々 に前記ワイヤハーネス枝線14の各被覆電線15の芯線が半田付け又は超音波溶 接等の接続手段により接続されているものである。In FIG. 2, 11 is a tape-shaped wire harness trunk line in which a large number of flat core wires 12 each having a rectangular cross section are covered with an insulation sheet 13 and arranged and adhered, and 14 is a normal covering. A wire harness branch line formed by bundling a plurality of electric wires 15, a connector 16 is connected to one end of the wire harness branch line 14, and an intermediate connecting piece 17 is connected to the other end. As shown in FIG. 3, the intermediate connecting piece 17 has a structure in which a plurality of flat core wires 18 each having a rectangular cross-sectional shape are arrayed and bonded by an insulating sheet 19. The core wire of each covered electric wire 15 of the wire harness branch wire 14 is connected to each of the core wires 18 by a connecting means such as soldering or ultrasonic welding.
【0007】 20はワイヤハーネス幹線11の各芯線12に接続される夫々の被覆電線であ って、これら被覆電線20の先端には、コネクタ21が接続されている。Reference numeral 20 denotes each covered electric wire connected to each core wire 12 of the wire harness trunk 11, and a connector 21 is connected to the tip of each covered electric wire 20.
【0008】 そこで、本実施例のワイヤハーネスを構成するには、上記テープ状ワイヤハー ネス幹線11と、中間接続片17を接続したワイヤハーネス枝線14を用意した 後、そのワイヤハーネス枝線14の中間接続片17をワイヤハーネス幹線11上 に位置せしめ、次いでその中間接続片17の所望の芯線18と該芯線18と重な り合うワイヤハーネス幹線11の所望の芯線12とを超音波溶接手段により接続 することにより、幹線11と枝線14とが接続されて所望回路のワイヤハーネス が構成されるものである。Therefore, in order to configure the wire harness of the present embodiment, after preparing the wire harness branch line 14 connecting the tape-shaped wire harness trunk line 11 and the intermediate connecting piece 17, the wire harness branch line 14 of the wire harness branch line 14 is prepared. The intermediate connecting piece 17 is positioned on the wire harness main line 11, and then the desired core wire 18 of the intermediate connecting piece 17 and the desired core wire 12 of the wire harness main wire 11 overlapping the core wire 18 are ultrasonically welded. By connecting, the main line 11 and the branch line 14 are connected to form a wire harness of a desired circuit.
【0009】 このように本実施例にあっては、テープ状に形成されたワイヤハーネス幹線1 1に、中間接続片17を介してワイヤハーネス枝線14を超音波溶接してワイヤ ハーネスを構成するものであるから、そのワイヤハーネスの自動組立が可能とな る。またワイヤハーネス幹線11の芯線12と、中間接続片17の芯線18は偏 平形状であるために、その両芯線の超音波溶接による接続が確実に行なえるもの である。As described above, in this embodiment, the wire harness branch line 14 is ultrasonically welded to the tape-shaped wire harness main line 11 via the intermediate connecting piece 17 to form a wire harness. Since it is a wire harness, it is possible to automatically assemble the wire harness. Further, since the core wire 12 of the wire harness main line 11 and the core wire 18 of the intermediate connecting piece 17 are flat, the connection of both core wires by ultrasonic welding can be reliably performed.
