Abstract

A corrugated tube is formed in a cylindrical shape to cover an electric wire that is made of at least a conductive material, extends in one direction, and inserted into the corrugated tube. A holding member is fixed to the corrugated tube. A tie band fixes a part of the electric wire to the holding member, the part being extended outwardly from the corrugated tube. With this constitution, the electric wire inserted into the corrugated tube can be fixed to the holding member fixed to the corrugated tube by the tie band thus fixing the electric wire to the corrugated tube formed in a cylindrical shape.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A fixing structure for a wiring material, comprising:
a holding member fixed to a sheath that is formed in a cylindrical shape and covers a wiring material inserted therein, the wiring material being made of at least a conductive material and extending in one direction; and a wiring-material fixing member that fixes a part of the wiring material to the holding member, the part being extended outwardly from the sheath.

2 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 1 , wherein
the sheath includes a part formed in a bellows shape, the holding member includes a protruding portion on a surface thereof facing the sheath when the holding member is fixed to the sheath, and the protruding portion is inserted into a valley part of the bellows shape and fixed to the sheath so as to restrict movement of the holding member relative to the sheath in an extending direction of the sheath.

3 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a holding-member fixing member that integrally wraps the holding member and the sheath so as to fix the holding member to the sheath.

4 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 1 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member binds the wiring material on the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

5 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 2 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member binds the wiring material on the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

6 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 3 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member binds the wiring material on the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

7 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 1 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member integrally wraps the wiring material and the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

8 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 2 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member integrally wraps the wiring material and the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

9 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 3 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member integrally wraps the wiring material and the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

10 . The fixing structure for the wiring material according to claim 4 , wherein
the wiring-material fixing member integrally wraps the wiring material and the holding member so as to fix the wiring material to the holding member.

11 . A wire harness comprising:
a wiring material that is made of at least a conductive material and extends in one direction; a sheath that is formed in a cylindrical shape and covers the wiring material inserted therein; and a fixing structure for the wiring material, the fixing structure including a holding member fixed to the sheath from the outside of the sheath, and a wiring-material fixing member that fixes a part of the wiring material to the holding member, the part being extended outwardly from the sheath.
