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
