Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A slide door structure includes: a slide door provided to be movable with respect to a vehicle body; and a wire harness routed between the vehicle body and the slide door by allowing an electric wire bundle to pass through a bendable exterior member. The wire harness is connected to the slide door by door-side fixture including an outer member attached to the slide door and an inner member provided on the wire harness and supported by the outer member so as to be rotatable about an axis in an upper-lower direction as a center. In the door-side fixture, the inner member is supported by the outer member so as to be slidable in a direction perpendicular to the axis.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A slide door structure comprising: a slide door provided so as to be movable with respect to a vehicle body; and a wire harness routed between the vehicle body and the slide door by allowing an electric wire bundle to pass through a bendable exterior member, wherein the wire harness is connected to the slide door by a fixture including an outer member attached to the slide door and an inner member provided on the wire harness and supported by the outer member so as to be rotatable about an axis in an upper-lower direction as a center, wherein in the fixture, the inner member is supported by the outer member so as to be slidable in a direction perpendicular to the axis, wherein a shaft portion is formed in the inner member, wherein a support hole formed of a long hole is formed in the outer member, and wherein the shaft portion is inserted into the support hole and the inner member is rotatably and slidably supported by the outer member. 2. The slide door structure according to claim 1 , wherein a guide groove along a sliding direction of the inner member is formed in the outer member, and wherein a guide rib that engages with the guide groove is formed in the inner member. 3. The slide door structure according to claim 1 , wherein the inner member is supported by the outer member so as to be slidable along a front-rear direction of the vehicle body. 4. A slide door structure comprising: a slide door provided so as to be movable with respect to a vehicle body; and a wire harness routed between the vehicle body and the slide door by allowing an electric wire bundle to pass through a bendable exterior member, wherein the wire harness is connected to the slide door by a fixture including an outer member attached to the slide door and an inner member provided on the wire harness and supported by the outer member so as to be rotatable about an axis in an upper-lower direction as a center, wherein in the fixture, the inner member is supported by the outer member so as to be slidable in a direction perpendicular to the axis, and wherein the inner member is supported by the outer member so as to be slidable along a width direction of the vehicle body.
