Patent number: 10522266Abstract: When bus bars are covered with covering parts and high-voltage conducting paths are formed and further the ends of the high-voltage conducting paths are provided with a motor side connector and an inverter side connector, formation of a wire harness is completed. Since the wire harness has a shape holding part, the whole bus bar is not a rigid body. The wire harness has plasticity. Since the shape holding part holds the shape at a point in time of stopping a bend process, the wire harness can be formed in a desired bend shape.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2011Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Hidehiko Kuboshima, Hideomi Adachi

Patent number: 9960577Abstract: To provide a wiring harness and a routing structure of the wiring harness able to prevent high temperature and its influence caused by heat generation. A wiring harness includes a harness main body having a plurality of high voltage conducting lines. The high voltage conducting lines are arranged with gaps between the adjacent high voltage conducting lines. Further, the plurality of high voltage conducting lines are arranged to maintain an interval as the gap. It becomes a routing structure of the wiring harness when curved portions of such high voltage conducting lines are directly or indirectly made contact with a shield cover covering the wiring harness. Because the high voltage conducting lines of the wiring harness are arranged with gaps between the adjacent high voltage conducting lines, radiation performance of the wiring harness is better than the wiring harness of which high voltage conducting lines are bundled.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2013Date of Patent: May 1, 2018Assignee: Yazaki CorporationInventors: Hideomi Adachi, Hidehiko Kuboshima
