Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A noise reduction tool includes a magnetic body that can be wound around, more than one turn around an axis of an electric wire or an electric wire bundle, the electric wire or the electric wire bundle and a fixing member that fixes, to each other, overlapping sections of a stacked portion in the magnetic body having a winding shape wound around the electric wire or the electric wire bundle and fixes the magnetic body to the electric wire or the electric wire bundle while keeping the winding shape of the magnetic body. The magnetic body is capable of changing a winding diameter according to an electric wire diameter of the electric wire or an electric wire bundle diameter of the electric wire bundle, and the fixing member fixes, to each other, the overlapping sections corresponding to a winding diameter of the magnetic body irrespective of the winding diameter.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A noise reduction tool comprising: a belt-like magnetic body that can be wound around, more than one turn around an axis of an electric wire or an electric wire bundle, the electric wire or the electric wire bundle in which a plurality of electric wires are bundled together; and a fixing member that fixes, to each other, overlapping sections of a stacked portion in the magnetic body having a winding shape wound around the electric wire or the electric wire bundle and fixes the magnetic body to the electric wire or the electric wire bundle while keeping the winding shape of the magnetic body, wherein the magnetic body is capable of changing a winding diameter according to an electric wire diameter of the electric wire or an electric wire bundle diameter of the electric wire bundle, the fixing member fixes, to each other, the overlapping sections corresponding to a winding diameter of the magnetic body irrespective of the winding diameter, and has a first fixing section that is integrated with one of the overlapping section and a second fixing section that clamps an other of the overlapping section between the first fixing section and the second fixing section, the first fixing section includes a plurality of first protrusions and a plurality of first grooves alternately arranged, the second fixing section includes a plurality of second protrusions and a plurality of second grooves alternately arranged, the plurality of first protrusions and the plurality of second grooves are paired one by one and, for each combination of the first protrusion and the second groove, the first protrusion is caused to bite in the other of the overlapping section between the first protrusion and the second groove, and the plurality of second protrusions and the plurality of first grooves are paired one by one and, for each combination of the second protrusion and the first groove, the second protrusion is caused to bite in the other of the overlapping section between the first protrusion and the second groove. 2 . A noise reduction tool comprising: a belt-like magnetic body that can be wound around, more than one turn around an axis of an electric wire or an electric wire bundle, the electric wire or the electric wire bundle in which a plurality of electric wires are bundled together; and a fixing member that fixes, to each other, overlapping sections of a stacked portion in the magnetic body having a winding shape wound around the electric wire or the electric wire bundle and fixes the magnetic body to the electric wire or the electric wire bundle while keeping the winding shape of the magnetic body, wherein the magnetic body is capable of changing a winding diameter according to an electric wire diameter of the electric wire or an electric wire bundle diameter of the electric wire bundle, the fixing member fixes, to each other, the overlapping sections corresponding to a winding diameter of the magnetic body irrespective of the winding diameter, and has a first fixing section and a second fixing section that clamp one of overlapping section and the an other of the overlapping section, the first fixing section includes a plurality of first protrusions and a plurality of first grooves alternately arranged, the second fixing section includes a plurality of second protrusions and a plurality of second grooves alternately arranged, the plurality of first protrusions and the plurality of second grooves are paired one by one and, for each combination of the first protrusion and the second groove, the first protrusion is caused to bite in the other of the overlapping section between the first protrusion and the second groove, and the plurality of second protrusions and the plurality of first grooves are paired one by one and, for each combination of the second protrusion and the first groove, the second protrusion is caused to bite in the other of the overlapping section between the first protrusion and the second groove. 3 . A wire harness comprising: an electric wire or an electric wire bundle in which a plurality of electric wires are bundled together; and a noise reduction tool that reduces emission to an outside of radiation noise emitted from the electric wire or the electric wire bundle, wherein the noise reduction tool includes: a belt-like magnetic body that can be wound around, more than one turn around an axis of the electric wire or the electric wire bundle, the electric wire or the electric wire bundle; and a fixing member that fixes, to each other, overlapping sections of a stacked portion in the magnetic body having a winding shape wound around the electric wire or the electric wire bundle and fixes the magnetic body to the electric wire or the electric wire bundle while keeping the winding shape of the magnetic body, the magnetic body is capable of changing a winding diameter according to an electric wire diameter of the electric wire or an electric wire bundle diameter of the electric wire bundle, the fixing member fixes, to each other, the overlapping sections corresponding to a winding diameter of the magnetic body irrespective of the winding diameter, and has a first fixing section that is integrated with one of the overlapping section and a second fixing section that clamps an other of the overlapping section between the first fixing section and the second fixing section, the first fixing section includes a plurality of first protrusions and a plurality of first grooves alternately arranged, the second fixing section includes a plurality of second protrusions and a plurality of second grooves alternately arranged, the plurality of first protrusions and the plurality of second grooves are paired one by one and, for each combination of the first protrusion and the second groove, the first protrusion is caused to bite in the other of the overlapping section between the first protrusion and the second groove, and the plurality of second protrusions and the plurality of first grooves are paired one by one and, for each combination of the second protrusion and the first groove, the second protrusion is caused to bite in the other of the overlapping section between the first protrusion and the second groove. 4 . A wire harness comprising: an electric wire or an electric wire bundle in which a plurality of electric wires are bundled together; and a noise reduction tool that reduces emission to an outside of radiation noise emitted from the electric wire or the electric wire bundle, wherein the noise reduction tool includes: a belt-like magnetic body that can be wound around, more than one turn around an axis of the electric wire or the electric wire bundle, the electric wire or the electric wire bundle; and a fixing member that fixes, to each other, overlapping sections of a stacked portion in the magnetic body having a winding shape wound around the electric wire or the electric wire bundle and fixes the magnetic body to the electric wire or the electric wire bundle while keeping the winding shape of the magnetic body, the magnetic body is capable of changing a winding diameter according to an electric wire diameter of the electric wire or an electric wire bundle diameter of the electric wire bundle, the fixing member fixes, to each other, the overlapping sections corresponding to a winding diameter of the magnetic body irrespective of the winding diameter, and has a first fixing section and a second fixing section that clamp one of overlapping section and the an other of the overlapping section, the first fixing section includes a plurality of first protrusions and a plurality of first grooves alternately arranged, the second fixing section includes a plurality of second protrusions and a plurality of second grooves alternately arranged, the plurality of first protrusions and the
