A cable guide includes a plurality of link frame bodies arranged in a row and pivotably joined together, each of the link frame bodies including a pair of link platesthat are spaced apart from and opposed to each other in an orthogonal direction B that is orthogonal to an arrangement direction A, a first plate portion that joins together end portions of the pair of link plates on one side in a height direction C, and a second plate portion that joins together end portions on another side in the direction C, and at least one of two side edge portions of the first plate portion is provided with a notch portiondue to which a width of the first plate portion is smaller in a central portion in the direction B thereof than two end portions in the direction B of the first plate.

Cable guide and wire harness apparatus

A wire guide device is to be arranged at an end portion of a cable guide, and is internally provided with an insertion hole through which a wire is passed. The wire guide device includes a first divided part and a second divided part that can be combined in a width direction that intersects a direction in which the insertion hole is formed. The first divide part and the second divided part include locking portions that are locked to each other in the combined state, division faces that are opposed to each other in the width direction, and restriction portions (vertical movement restriction portions, and slide restriction portions) that are provided separately from the locking portions and abut against each other to restrict positional shift of the division faces.

Wire guide device

A wire guide device A includes a wire guide bodythat is formed by coupling a plurality of link membersin series such that the link memberscan rotate relative to each other, and inside which an accommodation spacefor a wire W is formed. The link memberincludes a link bodyand a lid. The link bodyis provided with an openingthrough which the accommodation spaceis open toward the outside of the wire guide body. The lidis locked to the link bodyand thereby closes the opening. The openingsand the lidsare arranged on surfaces of the link membersthat are located on an inner side of a curved portion of the wire guide bodywhen the wire guide bodyis curved.

Provided is a wire harness apparatusthat uses a protectorfor a wire harness that includes a body portioninto which a wire harness W is to be inserted; a cover bodythat covers an opening portionof the body portion; a joining portionwith flexibility that is formed thinner than the body portionand the cover bodyand rotatably joins the cover bodyto a first side wallof the body portion; a body contact portionprovided on the first side wallof the body portion; and a cover body contact portionprovided on the cover bodythat transfers a load applied to the cover bodyto the body portionby the cover body contact portioncoming into contact with the body contact portion

Protector for wire harness and wire harness apparatus

A wire guide device includes a first divided part and a second divided part that can be combined in a width direction. In a combined state, the first divided part and the second divided part form an insertion holethrough which a wire passes in a direction intersecting the width direction. One end of the insertion hole is open toward a cable guide, and the other end of the insertion hole is open upward. The upper side of the insertion hole is covered by upper walls of the first divided part and the second divided part. The upper walls of the first divided part and the second divided part are formed in the width direction, are abutted against each other, and include upper guide portions that restrict displacement in a direction orthogonal to the width direction.

Wire guide device including first divided part and second divided part

An electrical wire guiding apparatusincludes a plurality of link membersthat are pivotably connected in series, and each have an accommodation spacefor an electric wire W provided therein. Each of the plurality of link membersincludes a link bodyA in which a surface positioned on an inner side of a bend in a pivoted state is open as an opening surfaceC, and a coverB that is engaged with the link bodyA, and blocks the opening surfaceC.
