  • Patent number: 11735336
    Abstract: A wiring body includes a wire-like transmission member and a base member to which the wire-like transmission member is fixed. A temporary joint part joins portions where a first part and a second part mutually extending in an opposite side from a bending position in the wiring body overlap with each other in a state where the wiring body is bended in an intermediate portion of the wire-like transmission member in an extension direction to maintain a bending state of the wiring body. The temporary joint part is formed to be able to resolve a state of joining the first part and the second part by a relative separation movement of the first part and the second part.
