Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A wire harness includes: an electric wire including a wire-like conductor and an insulating layer covering the conductor; and a heat dissipation portion for fixing the electric wire to a metal member.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A wire harness fixing structure comprising: an electric wire including a wire-like conductor and an insulating layer covering the conductor; a metal member being a art of a vehicle body; and a heat dissipation portion for fixing the electric wire to the metal member, wherein the electric wire is bent on the surface of the metal member, and the heat dissipation portion is a hot melt adhesive, a pressure-sensitive adhesive or a rivet. 2 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 1 , wherein the heat dissipation portion includes a band body continuously or discontinuously provided along an axial direction of the electric wire. 3 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 1 , wherein the heat dissipation portion contains a hot melt adhesive. 4 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 3 , wherein the hot melt adhesive is a polyester-based adhesive. 5 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 3 , wherein the hot melt adhesive contains a thermally conductive filler. 6 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 1 , wherein the heat dissipation portion is a rivet. 7 . (canceled) 8 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 1 , wherein the heat dissipation portion contains a pressure-sensitive adhesive. 9 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 8 , wherein the pressure-sensitive adhesive contains a thermally conductive filler. 10 . The wire harness fixing structure according to claim 1 , wherein the conductor has a cross-sectional area smaller than that of a conductor of an electric wire estimated by using formula specified in JASO D609 based on an allowable current of the electric wire.
