WIRE HARNESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18432089 titled 'WIRE HARNESS

The patent application describes a wire harness consisting of a tubular member, an electric wire member, a cover member, and a holder. The electric wire member comprises connected electric wires with a core wire covered by an insulation sheath. The cover member encases the connected part of the electric wires, and the electric wire member is inserted through the tubular member. The holder, located at the end of the tubular member, protects the electric wire member where the cover member is situated. Additionally, the electric wire member includes a double-insulation portion where the core wire is covered by both the insulation sheath and the cover member, and the holder features a hollow portion where the double-insulation portion is located.

  • Electric wire member with connected electric wires
  • Core wire covered by insulation sheath
  • Cover member encasing connected part of electric wires
  • Holder protecting electric wire member at covered part
  • Double-insulation portion in electric wire member
  • Hollow portion in holder for double-insulation portion

Original Abstract Submitted

A wire harness includes a tubular member, an electric wire member, a cover member, and a holder. The electric wire member includes electric wires connected to each other. The electric wires each have a core wire covered by an insulation sheath. The cover member covers a circumference of a connected part of the electric wires. The electric wire member is inserted through the tubular member. The holder is tubular and is arranged at an end part of the tubular member to protect the electric wire member at a part where the cover member is arranged. The electric wire member includes a double-insulation portion where the core wire is covered by the insulation sheath and the cover member. The holder includes a hollow portion in a part where the double-insulation portion is located.
