Abstract

A clamp mark includes a mark main body, flange parts and a linear rib. The mark main body has a cylindrical shape. The mark main body is made of resin material by molding. The mark main body covers a circumference of an electric wire entirely in a circumference direction of the electric wire at a predetermined position of the electric wire in an axial direction of the electric wire. The flange parts are respectively provided on both ends of the mark main body in an axial direction of the mark main body so as to project outward in a radial direction of the mark main body from an outer peripheral surface of the mark main body. The rib is provided on and projected from the outer peripheral surface of the mark main body.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A clamp mark, comprising:
a mark main body, having a cylindrical shape, made of resin material by molding, configured to cover a circumference of an electric wire entirely in a circumference direction of the electric wire at a predetermined position of the electric wire in an axial direction of the electric wire;
flange parts respectively provided on both ends of the mark main body in an axial direction of the mark main body so as to project outward in a radial direction of the mark main body from an outer peripheral surface of the mark main body; and
a linear rib provided on and projected from the outer peripheral surface of the mark main body, wherein
the flange parts project outward from the mark main body at a distance that is greater than a distance in which the linear rib projects outward from the mark main body,
the linear rib extends in the axial direction of the mark main body,
the linear rib is a first linear rib,
the clamp mark further comprises a second linear rib that is provided on and projected from the outer peripheral surface of the mark main body, the second linear rib extending the axial direction of the mark main body, and
the first linear rib having a different shape than the second linear rib.

2. A wire harness, comprising:
the electric wire; and
the clamp mark according to claim 1 , which is integrally molded with the electric wire.

3. The clamp mark according to claim 1 , wherein
the linear rib extends to the flange parts respectively provided on both ends of the mark main body.
