WIRE HARNESS CLAMP ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18390716 titled 'WIRE HARNESS CLAMP ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE

The abstract describes a patent application for a clamp that can be inserted into an attachment hole in a floor panel and locked in place using elastic pieces that deform in opposite directions.

  • The insertion portion of the clamp is inserted into an attachment hole in a floor panel.
  • The pair of elastic pieces on the insertion portion can be locked to the edges of the attachment hole.
  • The elastic pieces deform in opposite directions to each other in a direction orthogonal to the insertion direction.
  • The clamp can be rotated within a predetermined range around an axis in the insertion direction.
  • When rotated by a predetermined angle, the clamp can be unlocked from the attachment hole.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various industries where securing objects to floor panels is necessary. - It can be applied in automotive, aerospace, and construction sectors for fastening components securely.

Original Abstract Submitted

The insertion portion of the clamp is inserted into an attachment hole formed through the floor panel. The pair of elastic pieces of the insertion portion is elastically deformable in opposite directions to each other in a direction orthogonal to the insertion direction of the insertion portion, and can be locked to the pair of locked edges of the attachment hole. I can do it. The attachment hole has a shape that allows the clamp to be rotated within a predetermined range around the axis in the insertion direction of the insertion part from the locked state in which the pair of elastic pieces is locked to the pair of locked edges. Further, when the clamp is rotated by a predetermined angle from the locked state, the hole edge is located outside the outer shape of the insertion portion in plan view.
