An enclosure type shielding member is formed in a structure including metal foil and a resin-made base material and also, one lateral part of the enclosure type shielding member is formed as a base material single part or a folded-back formation part.
An embodiment will hereinafter be described with reference to the drawings. Figs. 1A to 1 B are diagrams of a wire harness which adopts a conducting line shield structure of the invention. Also, Figs. 2 to 3C are diagrams showing a wrapped shield state of mutual lateral parts in an enclosure type shielding member, and Figs. 4A to 4E are diagrams related to a manufacturing step of a wire harness body, and Figs. 5A and 5B are diagrams related to a distal end processing step, and Figs. 6A to 6D are diagrams related to another example of a manufacturing step.
In Figs. 1A and 1 B, reference numeral 21 shows the wire harness having a shielding function. The wire harness 21 is cabled in the place necessary to fulfill the shielding function in, for example, an automobile. The wire harness 21 is configured to include a wire harness body 22 and publicly known connections (not shown) which are respectively provided on both distal ends of this wire harness body 22 and make electrical connection. The wire harness 21 will hereinafter be described as a low-voltage wire harness, but is not limited to this wire harness. The wire harness 21 can also be applied to a high-voltage wire harness of, for example, a hybrid vehicle or an electric vehicle.
The wire harness body 22 is configured to include a pair of insulated core wires 23 (first conducting lines), a copper electric wire 24 (a second conductive line), an enclosure type shielding member 25 (a shielding member) and an enclosure type protective member 26 (a protective member). Such a wire harness body 22 is provided with at least one of a wear-resistant member 27, a heat-resistant member (not shown) and a heat shield member 28 (see Fig. 5C) as necessary. The wire harness body 22 itself is configured so as to reduce cost. First, each of the components described above will be described. In addition, the wire harness 21 can also applied to a wire harness body including one insulated core wire 23 and a wire harness body including one insulated core wire 23 and the copper electric wire 24.
The insulated core wire 23 is configured to include a conductor 29 (a conductive part) and an insulator 30 (an insulative part) provided on the outside of this conductor 29. The conductor 29 is a conductive metal portion such as copper, copper alloy, aluminum or aluminum alloy, and is formed in the length necessary to cable the wire harness 21. The conductor 29 adopts a conductor structure made by twisting many strands. In addition, the conductor structure may be, for example, a conductor structure forming a round single core (a round bar wire), a conductor structure forming a quadrilateral single core (a quadrilateral bar wire) or a conductor structure forming a bus bar shape. The conductor 29 has merits of being inexpensive and lightweight when this conductor 29 is made of aluminum.
The insulator 30 is a coating on the conductor 29, and is formed by extruding a publicly known resin material having insulation properties.
The insulated core wires 23 are not limited to two cores as shown in the drawings, and the number of insulated core wires 23 may be, for example, seven, or two or more. Also, the insulated core wires 23 are not limited to twisting as shown in the drawings, and may be formed by no twisting or combination of twisting and no twisting (the twisting will be described below). The size of the insulated core wire 23 is selected properly and may be any of the sizes of publicly known thin and thick electric wires.
The copper electric wire 24 is a copper bare wire without other laminated body directly above, and has a function as a drain wire. The copper electric wire 24 is arranged so as to be longitudinally attached to the pair of insulated core wires 23 in a twisted state. Such a copper electric wire 24 is formed in the same length as that of the insulated core wire 23. The size of the copper electric wire 24 is selected properly. It is essential for the copper electric wire 24 to make electrical contact with the enclosure type shielding member 25. In addition, the copper electric wire 24 is not limited to the wire made of copper and the material of the copper electric wire 24 is not particularly limited as long as the material has conductivity.
The enclosure type shielding member 25 is a shielding member for collectively enclosing the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24, and is a sheet formed in a film shape, a sheet shape or a tape shape. The enclosure type shielding member 25 is formed so as to become a shielding member of an enclosure type. The enclosure type shielding member 25 is formed so that the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24 can be enclosed in a longitudinally attached state in the embodiment. In other words, the enclosure type shielding member 25 is wrapped so as to enclose the insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24 therein.
In Figs. 1 and 2, the enclosure type shielding member 25 is configured to include aluminum foil 31 (metal foil), a plated layer 32 which is provided on one surface of this aluminum foil 31 and makes contact with an outer peripheral surface of the copper electric wire 24, and a resin-made base material 33 which is provided on the other surface side of the aluminum foil 31 and performs insulation. The enclosure type shielding member 25 is formed by a structure of laminating the configuration described above. In addition, the aluminum foil 31 and the base material 33 are integrated by a bonding layer 34, but the integration is not limited to this. That is, they may be integrated by other methods such as vapor deposition.
The plated layer 32 is a layer plated with tin, and is formed on the aluminum foil 31 in a planar state in uniform thickness. By the planar state, there is an effect capable of forming the plated layer 32 evenly uniformly. The plated layer 32 has conductivity and is formed in order to prevent electrolytic corrosion of the copper electric wire 24 and the aluminum foil 31. The plated layer 32 is formed in a thickness of, for example, about 1 μηι, but is not particularly limited to this thickness. In addition, the side of the copper electric wire 24 may be given plating. Also, plating may be omitted when metal foil other than the aluminum foil 31 is used.
The aluminum foil 31 is publicly known metal foil made of aluminum, and is formed on the whole surface of the base material 33. A folded-back formation part 38 described below is formed. Or, the aluminum foil 31 is formed so that a base material single part 36 can be obtained in one lateral part 35 of the base material 33. In the embodiment, the latter is adopted. The aluminum foil 31 is formed so that the base material single part 36 can be obtained in one lateral part 35 of the base material 33. The base material single part 36 will be described below. The aluminum foil 31 is formed in a thickness of, for example, about 10 μΐη, but is not particularly limited to this thickness. In the aluminum foil 31 , the length etc. are set according to the place necessary to fulfill the shielding function. As metal foil other than the aluminum foil 31 , for example, copper foil is given.
The bonding layer 34 is a layer for bonding the aluminum foil 31 to the base material 33 without peeling and in the embodiment, publicly known glue is used for example. The base material 33 is a base layer of the enclosure type shielding member 25, and is formed of an insulating material. In the embodiment, a PET (polyethylene terephthalate) sheet is used in the base material 33 for example. In addition to this, for example, a polyester sheet, acetate cloth, polyester cloth, glass cloth, insulating paper, PET fabric or polyester cloth is given. The base material 33 is formed in a thickness of, for example, about 25 μηι, but is not particularly limited to this thickness.
One side end part of the enclosure type shielding member 25 overlaps an outside surface of the base material 33 so that one side end part of the base member 33 is in contact with the outside surface of the base material 33.
In a first embodiment of the invention, the base material 33 is formed so that the base material single part 36 can be obtained in one lateral part 35 (the one side end part) of this base material 33 as described above. The base material single part 36 is the portion made of only the base material 33, and is formed so that the other lateral part 37 of the base material 33 can be covered in the case of enclosing the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24 (it is enclosed and covered in a sushi roll shape in Figs. 1A to 2). In other words, the base material 33 extends from end of the metal foil 31 at the one side end part of the enclosure type shielding member 25. The base material single part 36 is formed as an insulating portion for preventing the aluminum foil 31 or the plated layer 32 from being exposed. When the other lateral part 37 of the base material 33 is covered with one lateral part 35 and this forms an overlap portion, a wrapped shield state in which the aluminum foil 31 is wrapped is formed. The overlap portion is only the overlap in the present embodiment, but an inner surface of the base material single part 36 may be fastened to an outside surface of the base material 33 by, for example, thermal welding or thermal fusion. The overlap portion or the fastened portion described above is formed over the whole longitudinal direction of the wire harness 21.
In a fourth embodiment, one lateral part 35 and the other lateral part 37 of the base material 33 are folded while being overlapped, the aluminum foil 31 or the plated layer 32 can be prevented from being exposed in the case of arranging the base material single part 36 in a position as shown in Fig. 3C. Also, in second and third embodiments in which the base material single part 36 is folded back and the other lateral part 37 is covered as shown in Figs. 3A and 3B, the aluminum foil 31 or the plated layer 32 can be prevented from being exposed in this case. The base material single part 36 in Figs. 3A and 3B is also formed as the folded-back formation part 38 capable of folding back this base material single part 36. In addition to this, when the base material single part 36 is not formed, the aluminum foil 31 or the plated layer 32 can be prevented from being exposed in the case of forming the folded-back formation part by overlapping one lateral part 35 and the other lateral part 37 and suppliantly wrapping the lateral parts and then folding back the overlap top inwardly. In other words, in the second to fourth embodiments, the one side end part of the enclosure type shielding member 25 is folded inside so that the outside surface of the base material 33 is in contact with an outside surface of the one side end part of the base member 33.
Returning to Figs. 1 and 2, the enclosure type protective member 26 is a member for protecting the enclosure type shielding member 25 of a state of collectively enclosing the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24, and is formed in a film shape, a sheet shape or a tape shape. The enclosure type protective member 26 is formed so as to be able to protect in the minimum necessary thickness. The enclosure type protective member 26 is formed in the same size as that of the enclosure type shielding member 25 or the size slightly larger than that of the enclosure type shielding member 25. In the embodiment, the enclosure type protective member 26 is formed in the size in which the enclosure type shielding member 25 can be enclosed in a longitudinally attached state. In the embodiment, a PET film made of polyethylene terephthalate is used as the enclosure type protective member 26 (one example is taken). The enclosure type protective member 26 has insulation properties.
The enclosure type protective member 26 is constructed so as to overlap one lateral part and the other lateral part of this enclosure type protective member and then stick the lateral parts with tape. Or, the enclosure type protective member 26 is constructed so as to be fastened by, for example, thermal welding or thermal fusion as necessary. The overlap portion or the fastened portion is formed over the whole longitudinal direction. In addition, an overlap state may be similar to that of the enclosure type shielding member 25. Also, an overlap position is arranged in, for example, the side opposite to an overlap position of the enclosure type shielding member 25, and it is preferable that the overlap positions should differ.
A predetermined position of the outside of the enclosure type protective member 26 is provided with the wear-resistant member 27, the heat-resistant member (not shown) and the heat shield member 28 as shown in Fig. 5. The wear-resistant member 27 is provided in only the place in which wear resistance is required. Adoption of the wear-resistant member 27 has an effect capable of preventing excessive quality and thus reducing cost. On one hand, the heat-resistant member is also provided in the place in which heat resistance is required, and has the effect capable of preventing excessive quality and thus reducing cost like the wear-resistant member 27. On the other hand, the heat shield member 28 is also provided in the place in which heat shield properties are required, and has the effect capable of preventing excessive quality and thus reducing cost like the wear-resistant member 27. It is preferable to form the wear-resistant member 27, the heat-resistant member or the heat shield member 28 in, for example, a tape shape. The shape may be a film shape or a sheet shape. The case of being formed in the tape shape has an advantage capable of adjusting the thickness according to the number of turns. As the wear-resistant member 27, a relatively thick protective member such as publicly known joint tape is given. Also, as the heat-resistant member, a heat-resistant resin mixture is given. Also, as the heat shield member 28, a laminated body of a heat reflective member and a sheet-shaped member is given.
Next, manufacture of the wire harness body 22 and the wire harness 21 will be described based on the configuration and the structure described above.
In Fig. 4A, the insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24 are arranged in a state of attaching the copper electric wire 24 to the pair of insulated core wires 23. Next, the enclosure type shielding member 25 is incorporated so as to enclose the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24 as shown in Figs. 4B and 4C. At this time, the enclosure type shielding member 25 is incorporated so that the inside plated layer 32 of the enclosure type shielding member 25 surely makes contact with the copper electric wire 24. Subsequently, the enclosure type protective member 26 is incorporated so as to further enclose the enclosure type shielding member 25 of a state of collectively enclosing the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24 as shown in Figs. 4D and 4E. The enclosure type protective member 26 may be incorporated so as to make close contact with the enclosure type shielding member 25 or may be incorporated so as to cause a slight gap between the enclosure type shielding member 25 and the enclosure type protective member 26. With the above, manufacture of the wire harness body 22 is completed.
In Fig. 5A, when distal end processing 39 is performed with respect to one distal end of the wire harness body 22, the enclosure type shielding member 25 and the enclosure type protective member 26 are slid to the other distal end side. In the other distal end, the amount of exposure decreases by slide movement of the enclosure type shielding member 25 and the enclosure type protective member 26. Next, when distal end processing 40 is performed with respect to the other distal end of the wire harness body 22, the enclosure type shielding member 25 and the enclosure type protective member 26 are slid to one distal end side as shown in Fig. 5B. In one distal end, the amount of exposure decreases by slide movement of the enclosure type shielding member 25 and the enclosure type protective member 26.
In addition, when the enclosure type shielding member 25 and the enclosure type protective member 26 are not slid, spaces shown by a dimension A are respectively required in both distal ends of the wire harness body 22. On the other hand, the slide movement is adopted in the embodiment, so that a dimension B shorter than the dimension A could be ensured (dimension A > dimension B). Therefore, the whole length of the enclosure type shielding member 25 can be increased, with the result that there is an effect capable of expanding a shield range.
In Fig. 5C, manufacture of the wire harness 21 is completed when a predetermined position of the outside of the enclosure type protective member 26 is provided with the wear-resistant member 27, the heat-resistant member (not shown) and the heat shield member 28.
With relation to the manufacture of the wire harness 21 , the wire harness 21 may be manufactured by arranging the pair of insulated core wires 23 in substantially parallel (no twisting) without twisting the pair of insulated core wires 23 as shown in Figs. 6A and 6B. Also, the wire harness 21 may be manufactured by twisting a part of the pair of insulated core wires 23 as shown in Figs. 6C and 6D. The place unnecessary to twist the insulated core wires is not twisted and thereby, excessive quality is prevented and also, there is an effect capable of simplifying the manufacture and reducing cost.
As described above with reference to Figs. 1 to 6, the invention has an effect capable of making use equipment simpler than the case of the conventional shield layer by using the enclosure type shielding member 25. Also, the invention relates to the enclosure type shielding member 25 of a state of collectively enclosing the pair of insulated core wires 23 and the copper electric wire 24, and has an effect capable of preventing exposure of the aluminum foil 31 from one lateral part 35 of this enclosure type shielding member 25. Therefore, the invention has effects capable of maintaining the shielding function and also ensuring insulation characteristics and further reducing cost.
In addition to this, the invention has an effect capable of reducing cost also in the outside of the enclosure type shielding member 25 since the enclosure type protective member 26 is used. Also, the invention has an effect capable of further reducing cost since excessive quality is prevented.
In the invention, various changes can naturally be made without departing from the gist of the invention.
The present application is based on Japanese Patent Application No.
