  • Electrical harness flexibility measurement device
    Patent number: 12674733
    Abstract: A device configured to measure flexibility of a wire harness. The device includes: a base including a first retention member configured to hold the wire harness; an arm pivotably connected to the base at a hinge, the arm including a second retention member configured to hold the wire harness; an interface of the arm, the interface configured to cooperate with an actuator such that rotation of the interface by the actuator rotates the arm relative to the base at the hinge and bends the wire harness mounted to the device; and a gauge configured to identify an angular position of the arm relative to the base corresponding to a degree of bend of the wire harness.
