Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A wiring harness wiring structure is for wiring a wiring harness between a body and a door of a vehicle, and configured to suppress the trapping of water in the door. The wiring harness wiring structure includes a wiring unit partly supported on the body and including the wiring harness, and a protector including an insertion opening into which the wiring unit is to be inserted, an extra length absorbing portion for accommodating the wiring harness while including a margin space, into which the wiring harness is detoured, and a water drainage hole formed in a lower part of the extra length absorbing portion and arranged at a position vertically above and overlapping a through hole formed in a door inner panel and penetrating from a vehicle inner side to a vehicle outer side between a door trim of the door and the door inner panel.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A wiring harness wiring structure for wiring a wiring harness between a body and a door of a vehicle, comprising: a wiring unit partly supported on the body and including the wiring harness; and a protector including an insertion opening into which the wiring unit is to be inserted, an extra length absorbing portion for accommodating the wiring harness of the wiring unit while including a margin space, into which the wiring harness of the wiring unit is detoured, a water drainage hole formed in a lower part of the extra length absorbing portion and arranged at a position vertically above and overlapping a through hole formed in a door inner panel and penetrating from a vehicle inner side to a vehicle outer side between a door trim of the door and the door inner panel closer to the vehicle outer side than the door trim; wherein: the protector extends downward from the water drainage hole and includes a lead-out portion having a tubular or groove shape and inserted through the through hole of the door inner panel; and the lead-out portion is so shaped that a tip part is at least partly widened radially outward. 2. A wiring harness wiring structure for wiring a wiring harness between a body and a door of a vehicle, comprising: a wiring unit partly supported on the body and including the wiring harness; and a protector including an insertion opening into which the wiring unit is to be inserted, an extra length absorbing portion for accommodating the wiring harness of the wiring unit while including a margin space, into which the wiring harness of the wiring unit is detoured, a water drainage hole formed in a lower part of the extra length absorbing portion and arranged at a position vertically above and overlapping a through hole formed in a door inner panel and penetrating from a vehicle inner side to a vehicle outer side between a door trim of the door and the door inner panel closer to the vehicle outer side than the door trim; wherein: the protector extends downward from the water drainage hole and includes a lead-out portion having a tubular or groove shape and inserted through the through hole of the door inner panel; and the lead-out portion is so shaped that a part of a tip part on the vehicle outer side is widened toward the vehicle outer side. 3. A wiring harness wiring structure for wiring a wiring harness between a body and a door of a vehicle, comprising: a wiring unit partly supported on the body and including the wiring harness; and a protector including an insertion opening into which the wiring unit is to be inserted, an extra length absorbing portion for accommodating the wiring harness of the wiring unit while including a margin space, into which the wiring harness of the wiring unit is detoured, a water drainage hole formed in a lower part of the extra length absorbing portion and arranged at a position vertically above and overlapping a through hole formed in a door inner panel and penetrating from a vehicle inner side to a vehicle outer side between a door trim of the door and the door inner panel closer to the vehicle outer side than the door trim; wherein: the extra length absorbing portion includes a lower bulging portion bulging further downward than the insertion opening; and the water drainage hole is formed in a lower end part of the lower bulging portion.
