A wire harness including: a wire; a cover that covers the wire; and a cushion provided between the wire and the cover, wherein: the cover is provided with a hole in an intermediate portion of the cover in an extension direction of the wire, and the cushion is provided between the hole and the wire in a first direction intersecting the extension direction.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A wire harness comprising: a plurality of wires; a cover that covers the plurality of wires; a plurality of cushions that each cover a respective one of the wires, the cushions being provided between the plurality of wires and the cover; a braid made of metal that covers the plurality of wires inside the cover, wherein the cushions are provided between the plurality of wires and the braid; and at least one exterior member that covers a respective portion of the plurality of wires that extends outward from a first end of the cover, the at least one exterior member being more flexible than the cover, wherein: the cover includes (i) a lid and (ii) a main body, the main body including (a) a bottom wall and (b) two side walls that each extend from a respective side edge of the bottom wall toward the lid, the cover is provided with a plurality of holes in an intermediate portion of the bottom wall in an extension direction of the plurality of wires, the holes being spaced apart in the extension direction of the plurality of wires, and the cushions are provided between the at least one hole and the plurality of wires in a first direction intersecting the extension direction. 2. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the cover has a longer dimension in the extension direction of the plurality of wires than in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the plurality of wires. 3. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one exterior member comprises two exterior members that respectively cover two portions of the plurality of wires that respectively extend outward from (i) the first end of the cover and (ii) a second end of the cover. 4. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one exterior member comprises a corrugated tube.
