  • Patent number: 10381130
    Abstract: A wire harness includes a group of first electric wires connected to a first circuit and a group of second electric wires connected to a second circuit whose consumption current is smaller than that of the first circuit. The group of first electric wires include aluminum electric wires. The group of second electric wires include a large diameter electric wire having a conductor formed of aluminum or aluminum alloy, a small diameter electric wire having a conductor formed of copper or copper alloy and a cross-sectional area of the conductor thereof smaller than that of the large diameter electric wire, and an extra fine electric wire having a conductor formed of the copper or copper alloy and a cross-sectional area of the conductor thereof smaller than that of the small diameter electric wire.

  • Patent number: 9065233
    Abstract: A wire crimping section (11) of a terminal (10) comprises a base section (13) upon which a conductor (1) of a wire (W) is arranged; and a pair of caulking sections (14) that is formed in extension from the base section (13), and that is caulked so as to crimp the conductor (1). A friction-agitation connection section (20), which is formed by making the conductor (1), the base section (13), and the pair of caulking sections (14) into a state of integrated plastic flow, is provided on the wire crimping section (11).

  • Patent number: 6286203
    Abstract: A method of installing a wire-harness which interconnects electric circuits provided at the inside and outside of a compartment of a motor vehicle. When a wind shield is bonded and fixed to a window frame of a vehicle body, a flat cable is disposed and embedded simultaneously at a portion of bonding wind shield at where the inside and outside of the compartment is partitioned. The circuit provided at the outside of the compartment is thus connected to the circuit provided at the inside of the compartment through the embedded flat cable at the portion of bonding wind shield.

  • Patent number: 5594210
    Abstract: A waterproof protective cover includes an upper casing member having bores formed at both endwalls in a longitudinal direction thereof to pass the electrical wires therethrough and a lower casing member pivotably connected to the upper casing member through a hinge attached to each sidewall of the upper and lower casing members. The lower casing member also has bores formed at both endwalls in a longitudinal direction thereof to pass the electrical wires therethrough. A storage chamber is defined by the upper and lower casing members when the former is engaged with the latter. Being filled up with an insulating sealant, the chamber serves to accommodate a connection part of the connected wires. A reservoir chamber for receiving the insulating sealant flowing out of the storage chamber is arranged between the bores of the upper and lower casing members and the storage chamber. Further, the upper casing member has a seal plate formed on a sidewall thereof.
