An object is to make it possible to hot-press a nonwoven member that covers a branching portion of a wire harness main body even when there is an error in the position of the branching portion. A wire harness includes a wire harness main body and a branching portion protection portion. The wire harness main body includes a trunk line portion and a branch line portion branching off from the trunk line portion. The branching portion protection portion is formed by hot-pressing a nonwoven member in a state in which the nonwoven member covers the branching portion where the branch line portion branches off from the trunk line portion. The branching portion protection portion includes a branch line side protection portion that is tapered from a base end side toward a distal end side of the branch line portion.

Wire harness and method for manufacturing wire harness

An object is to provide a wire harness capable of protecting a wire, and also capable of facilitating the mounting of the wire and a soundproofing material to a place where soundproofing (e.g., sound absorption or sound insulation) is required. The wire harness includes a wire and a soundproofing sheet. The soundproofing sheet includes a sheet-like soundproofing material that is combined integrally with the wire along the wire. A plurality of holes are formed in the soundproofing sheet at positions along a route of the wire.

Wire harness

It is aimed to improve soundproofing of a wiring module. The wiring module is provided with a sheet-shaped first soundproofing member; a wire harness which contains at least one wire and is disposed at least partially along one main surface of the first soundproofing member, and a second soundproofing member. The second soundproofing member is provided partially to one main surface of the first soundproofing member and holds the wire harness interposed between the first soundproofing member and the second soundproofing member.

Wiring module and method for assembling wiring module

A wire harness includes a wire harness main body and a protective member. The wire harness main body includes a trunk line and a branch line branching from the trunk line. In a state where a non-woven member covers the trunk line and a base end of the branch line, the protective member is formed by hot pressing a portion of the non-woven member covering at least the trunk line. A portion of the protective member covering the base end of the branch line is formed to be more pliable than a portion covering the trunk line.
