Patent number: 11936170Abstract: A wire guide device is to be arranged at an end portion of a cable guide, and is internally provided with an insertion hole through which a wire is passed. The wire guide device includes a first divided part and a second divided part that can be combined in a width direction that intersects a direction in which the insertion hole is formed. The first divide part and the second divided part include locking portions that are locked to each other in the combined state, division faces that are opposed to each other in the width direction, and restriction portions (vertical movement restriction portions, and slide restriction portions) that are provided separately from the locking portions and abut against each other to restrict positional shift of the division faces.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Kazuma Isoda, Katsuhiko Sato

Patent number: 11898621Abstract: A wire guide device A includes a wire guide body 15 that is formed by coupling a plurality of link members 17 in series such that the link members 17 can rotate relative to each other, and inside which an accommodation space 16 for a wire W is formed. The link member 17 includes a link body 20 and a lid 31. The link body 20 is provided with an opening 29 through which the accommodation space 16 is open toward the outside of the wire guide body 15. The lid 31 is locked to the link body 20 and thereby closes the opening 29. The openings 29 and the lids 31 are arranged on surfaces of the link members 17 that are located on an inner side of a curved portion of the wire guide body 15 when the wire guide body 15 is curved.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2021Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Kazuma Isoda, Hiroki Uno

Patent number: 11881693Abstract: A wire guide device includes a first divided part and a second divided part that can be combined in a width direction. In a combined state, the first divided part and the second divided part form an insertion hole 19 through which a wire passes in a direction intersecting the width direction. One end of the insertion hole is open toward a cable guide, and the other end of the insertion hole is open upward. The upper side of the insertion hole is covered by upper walls of the first divided part and the second divided part. The upper walls of the first divided part and the second divided part are formed in the width direction, are abutted against each other, and include upper guide portions that restrict displacement in a direction orthogonal to the width direction.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Kazuma Isoda, Katsuhiko Sato, Hiroki Uno
