Abstract: A power supply apparatus for a sliding structure includes a wire harness 10 which is extended from a body 5 to a sliding structure, an elastic member 40 for urging the wire harness 10 in a warp absorbing direction, a harness supporting member 501 mounted on the elastic member, on which the wire harness 10 is placed, a curved portion protection member 70 which accommodates a curved portion 12 of the wire harness 10 at an intermediate position in a longitudinal direction thereof, and an unusual sound suppressing portion 511, 512 for preventing unusual sound from being generated when the harness supporting member 501 hits against the curved portion protecting member 70. As the unusual sound suppressing portion, projections 511 and 512 to be in contact with the curved portion protecting member 70 are attached to the harness supporting member 501. Because of the above configuration, even when vibration is applied to an engine or car body, unusual sound will not be generated.

Abstract: The additional segment of a wire harness 3 which is required for opening/closing a slide door 1 and constitutes a curved segment 20 is housed in a protector 9. The protector 9 has curved walls 28, 29, guide rail 30, slider 31 and first and second harness outlets 32, 33. When the slide door 1 is opened/closed, the wire harness 3 shuttles to and fro within the second wire harness outlet 33. The looseness of the wire harness when the slide door is opened/closed may be absorbed in such a manner that it is supported by an elastic member in a state where the wire harness has been curved within the protector without using the guide rail 30 and slider 31. The protecting member may be provided with a bending limiting portion, harness securing portion and flange or slanted sliding-contact portion which serve to slide the wire harness smoothly. In this configuration, it is possible to realize improvement of easiness of assembling, saving of the space and smooth operation of a power supply apparatus.
