At a position that is plane-symmetric with respect to an orthogonal plane that is orthogonal to the bottom surface portion or the top surface portion, or along a plane parallel to the bottom surface portion or the top surface portion of the harness housing portion, with the point in the axial direction as a symmetry point It can be characterized by being arranged at a position that is rotationally symmetric.

The orthogonal plane refers to an orthogonal plane that extends along the axial direction and is orthogonal to the bottom surface portion, or an orthogonal surface that includes the orthogonal axis orthogonal to the axial direction and is orthogonal to the bottom surface portion.
The orthogonal plane refers to a plane formed in the vertical direction when the protector is horizontally disposed. That is, when the cross section of the bottom surface portion is U-shaped, it refers to a surface orthogonal to the tangential plane formed at the lowest point of the bottom surface portion. Note that the above-mentioned plane parallel to the bottom surface portion refers to a surface parallel to a horizontal plane when the protector is horizontally disposed, that is, a surface where a tangential plane formed at the lowest point of the bottom surface portion is parallel. .

  According to the present invention, for example, a protector with higher versatility can be provided that can cope with a vehicle in which the wire harness is symmetrically routed according to the specifications, such as the right handle specification and the left handle specification.

  More specifically, by arranging the pair of harness lead portions symmetrically with respect to the orthogonal axis direction, for example, the electronic devices at a position corresponding to one (right side) of the harness lead portions as in the right handle specification. For a vehicle on which the wire harness is mounted, the wire harness pulled out from the one side can be connected to the electronic devices, and the opening on the other side can be closed by the lid.

  On the other hand, in the case of a vehicle with a left handle specification in which the electronic devices are arranged at a position that is symmetrical with respect to a vehicle with a right handle specification, the harness lead-out portion can be obtained by aligning the axis of symmetry with the direction of the orthogonal axis. The wire harness pulled out from the other (left side) can be connected to the electronic devices, and the opening on one side can be closed with the lid.

In this way, electronic devices mounted on a vehicle with a certain specification and the same electronic devices mounted on a vehicle with a different specification are axisymmetric with respect to a predetermined axis or in the axial direction. Even when it is placed in a point-symmetrical position with respect to a point, the wire harness can be stored as desired in both specifications, and foreign matter can be prevented from entering from the other, providing a more versatile protector. It can be.

When the protector 10 is disposed on the vehicle body or the like, the protector 10 can be disposed without the lid fixing convex portion 39 interfering with the vehicle body.

  More specifically, for example, a base-side storage unit bottom surface 311 (second base side) in which the bottom-side base-side sub-bottom surface 331 of the base-side sub-drawer 33 provided with the lid fixing convex portion 39 is the bottom surface of the base-side storage unit 31. When the protector 10 having the same height as the storage portion bottom surface 311b) is assembled to the vehicle main body or the like, the lid fixing convex portion 39 protrudes downward and interferes with the vehicle main body, so the protector 10 is disposed. For this purpose, it is necessary to provide an accommodating portion for accommodating the lid fixing convex portion 39 on the vehicle main body side.

  However, the base-side sub-bottom surface 331 is arranged on the upper surface side by the height of the lid fixing convex portion 39 relative to the base-side storage portion bottom surface 311 (second base-side storage portion bottom surface 311b). Therefore, it is possible to prevent the fixing convex portion 39 from interfering with the vehicle body, and the protector 10 can be stably assembled to the vehicle body.

  Further, since the lid 40 and the base side sub lead portion 33 are integrally formed via the hinge 50, the lid portion 40 can be attached to the base side without performing the work of attaching the lid portion 40 to the base side sub lead portion 33. Since it can be fixed to the sub drawer part 33, workability can be improved. Moreover, the cover part 40 which comprises the protector 10 is not lost, and also the number of parts can be reduced.

  Furthermore, the lid locked portion 37 and the lid side closure locking portion 37 are provided on the base side sub-side surface 332 and the lid side closure locking portion 42 is provided on the lid portion 40. By locking 42, the closed state can be more reliably maintained, and interference with the vehicle main body to which the protector 10 is assembled and other members arranged on the upper surface side of the protector 10 can be prevented.

  More specifically, when the lid locking portion 37 is provided on the base-side sub-bottom surface 331, the lid locking portion 37 interferes with the vehicle main body when the protector 10 is assembled to the vehicle main body. The protector 10 cannot be assembled to the vehicle body in a stable state. Similarly, when the lid locked portion 37 is provided on the cover-side sub-upper surface 231, there is a risk of interference with the lid locked portion 37 when another member is disposed on the upper surface side.

  On the other hand, the lid side latching portion 37 is provided on the base side sub-side surface 332, and the lid side closure locking portion 42 is provided on the lid portion 40, so that the protector 10 can be assembled to the vehicle body or the like. Because the interference with the other members to be locked 37 and the lid-side closing / locking portion 42 can be prevented, and the lid-side locking portion 37 and the lid-side closing / locking portion 42 do not interfere with other members. It is possible to hold the closed state more reliably.

  Furthermore, the pair of sub lead-out portions 13 are arranged along the crossing direction intersecting the axial direction of the harness storage portion 11 and are symmetrical with respect to the symmetry plane SL orthogonal to the bottom surface portion 101 of the harness storage portion 11. As shown in FIG. 12, for example, as shown in FIG. 12, it is possible to cope with a vehicle in which the wiring harness 500 is symmetrically arranged according to the specification, such as the right handle specification and the left handle specification. It can be set as the protector 10 with high versatility.

  More specifically, in the protector 10, the sub lead-out portion 13R and the sub lead-out portion 13L of the pair of sub lead-out portions 13 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the orthogonal axis direction. Here, as shown in FIG. 13A and FIG. 4, when the protector 10 is mounted on a right-hand drive specification vehicle, it is sub-positioned to a position corresponding to the optional electronic equipment O mounted corresponding to the right-hand drive specification. Since the lead-out portion 13R is arranged, the sub-harness 700 pulled out from the sub-harness opening 15 in the sub-drawing portion 13R can be connected to the optional electronic equipment O, and the sub-harness opening 15 in the sub-drawing portion 13L is covered with the lid. 40 can be occluded.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 13 (b), as compared with a right-hand drive vehicle, the option electronic device O has a left-hand drive specification in which the optional electronic equipment O is disposed at a position that is plane-symmetric about the symmetry plane SL. For the vehicle, as shown in FIG. 12, the wire harness 500 drawn from the sub-harness opening 15 of the sub lead-out portion 13L is connected to the optional electronic equipment O by matching the symmetry plane SL and the orthogonal axis direction. It is possible to close the sub-harness opening 15 of the sub lead-out portion 13R with the lid portion 40.

As described above, the position where the electronic devices mounted on a vehicle with a certain specification and the same electronic devices mounted on a vehicle with another specification are axially symmetric or point-symmetric with respect to a predetermined axis. Even if it is a case where it is arrange | positioned, it can be set as the protector 10 which has more versatility which can prevent the penetration | invasion of the foreign material from the other while the wire harness 500 can be accommodated in the protector 10 in both specifications.
Therefore, it is not necessary to manufacture the protector 10 separately according to the specifications, and management costs and manufacturing costs can be reduced.

  Further, since the protector 10 is constituted by the cover body 20 and the base body 30, the wire harness 500 can be easily stored in the harness storage part 11, the main drawer part 12, and the sub-drawer part 13.

  More specifically, by removing the cover body 20 of the protector 10 from the base body 30, the wire harness 500 can be easily accommodated in the protector 10 from the upper surface side, and the sub-harness 700 that is a branch line of the wire harness 500 is provided. It can be easily pulled out from the sub drawer 13.

  Moreover, the cover side sub fitting which fits with the corrugated tube 800E which protects the sub harness 700 pulled out from the opening 15 for sub harnesses to the sub drawer part 13 (the cover side sub drawer part 23 and the base side sub drawer part 33). Since the corrugated tube 800E that protects the outer periphery of the sub harness 700 is fitted with the cover side sub fitting portion 26 and the base side sub fitting portion 36 by providing the portion 26 and the base side sub fitting portion 36, Invasion of foreign matter from the sub-harness opening 15 from which the sub-harness 700 is drawn out can be more reliably prevented, and damage to the wire harness 500 can be prevented. In addition, it is possible to prevent the positional deviation of the wire harness 500 drawn out from the sub lead-out part 13.

  Furthermore, since the protector 10 is divided into the cover body 20 and the base body 30, after the wire harness 500 is housed in the base body 30 and the corrugated tube 800E is fitted to the base side sub-fitting portion 36, the cover body is Since 20 can be attached from above and the cover side sub-fitting portion 26 and the corrugated tube 800E can be fitted, the protector 10 and the corrugated tube 800E can be more reliably fitted.
