Provided is a shape maintaining tool for maintaining the shape of the plate-shaped metal wire when the metal wire is routed. The shape maintaining tool includes a first member that has a first holding portion for holding the metal wire and also has a first coupling portion that is to be fixed to the first holding portion. A second member has a second holding portion for holding the metal wire and a second coupling portion that is to be fixed to the second holding portion. The first coupling portion and the second coupling portion are rotatably coupled so as to rotate at least the width direction of the metal wire that is held by both the first holding portion and the second holding portion.

Shape maintaining tool

A reinforcement is formed into an elongated shape, and includes a reinforcement body in which a housing part opened toward an outer peripheral side is formed and a covering part attached to close an opening of the housing part. A module component which is an electrical component or a wiring component may be housed in the reinforcement while being attached to the covering part.

Reinforcement and reinforcement module

An electrical component-attached wire harness includes a base material disposed in a vehicle, a wire harness disposed along the base material, and at least one electrical component to which an end portion of the wire harness is connected. For example, the at least one electrical component may include an electronic control unit.

Provided is a wiring module with a reduced weight. The wiring module is a vehicle-mounted wiring module that includes a conductor plate formed from a conductor that supplies power from an electricity storage device to an electric device. The wiring module includes a flat, conductive first conductor plate, a flat, conductive second conductor plate, and a conductive first coupling member. The first conductor plate has a first cross-sectional area. The second conductor plate has a second cross-sectional area smaller than the first cross-sectional area is, and is to be connected to the first conductor plate. The first coupling member couples the first conductor plate and the second conductor plate to each other.

Wiring module

Provided is a wiring module for installation in a vehicle, including a first conductor plate that is connected to a first output end of a power storage device and formed of a flat electric conductor elongated in a longitudinal direction, and supplying electric power from the power storage device to an electric device. The wiring module further includes a connection member. The connection member is fitted to the first conductor plate. The connection member includes a first fitting portion, a second fitting portion, and a switch. The first fitting portion is fitted to the first conductor plate. The second fitting portion has a first terminal through which electric power is supplied to the electric device. The switch establishes and breaks electrical continuity between the first terminal and the first conductor plate.

Wiring module and connection member for wiring module

Provided is a wiring module for which the shape of a through hole formed in a wall of a vehicle can be set independent of the cross section of a conductor plate. The wiring module penetrates a wall provided in a vehicle. The wiring module includes a pair of conductor plates and a conductive fastening member. The pair of conductor plates are disposed opposite to each other via the wall. The fastening member penetrates the wall to be conductively connected to the pair of conductor plates, and fastens the pair of conductor plates to the wall.

An automobile power supply device includes plate-shaped metal wirings and is configured to supply electric power from a battery that is installed in an engine room of a vehicle body to a vehicle interior. The metal wiring may extend in a central portion of a floor surface in the vehicle interior, and the automobile power supply device may include wire harnesses that respectively connect multiple electric devices that are installed in the vehicle body to the metal wiring in the vehicle interior. The metal wiring may be formed by coupling a plurality of wiring materials.
