  • Patent number: 9270096
    Abstract: Disclosed is a wire harness fixing structure allowing deformation volume of a middle of a plate in a wire harness clip to be minimized when a wire harness is pulled. The wire harness fixing structure is configured to fix the wire harness to a panel using a wire harness clip. The wire harness clip includes a plate composed of a base portion and a pair of extension portion extending in a direction away from both ends in a length direction of the base portion. The pair of extension portion is formed narrower than the base portion. The plate and the wire harness are covered with an self adhesive sheet, and fixed. The latched part being latched in a hole of the panel allows the adhesive sheet between the plate and the panel to be pressured and adhered to an outer circumference of the hole.

  • Patent number: 9172229
    Abstract: A wire harness securing structure secures a wire harness to a panel using a wire harness clip having a plate portion and a latch portion provided at the plate portion to be press-fitted to a hole of the panel. The latch portion includes a post extending from the plate portion and a pair of latch pieces extending from an end of the post toward the plate portion and having an end which engages with an edge of the hole. The plate portion and the wire harness are covered and secured by the self-adhesive sheet. A surface of the self-adhesive sheet facing the panel contacts with the end of the latch piece before the latch portion is press-fitted. When the latch portion is press-fitted and latched to the hole, the adhesive sheet between the plate portion and the panel is compressed and contacts firmly with an outer periphery of the hole.
