Abstract:
In a process for manufacturing an electric cable connection assembly 1 for connecting solar panels, a circumferential surface layer 6 of the respective cable sheath is partially removed by exposure to light at end portions of at least two individual cables which are connected to a respective exposed conductor end portion 5. After forming an electrically conductive connection between the cables 2, the cables 2 are introduced into the cavity 18 of an injection molding tool 15 and a heated, plastically deformable plastic granulate consisting of the same material as the cable sheath is injected into the cavity 18. The plastic material crosslinks homogeneously. An insulating sheath formed in this way is characterized by improved moisture protection and mechanical resistance.

A cable waterproof structure includes a plurality of insulated wires and a sheath covering the plurality of insulated wires collectively, a heat shrinkable tube with adhesive that includes adhesive inside, and is provided and shrunk so as to cover an end of the sheath and a circumference of the plurality of insulated wires extended from the end of the sheath, and a fixing heat shrinkable tube that includes no adhesive inside, and is provided and shrunk so as to cover a part of the heat shrinkable tube with adhesive that covers the sheath and a circumference of the sheath extended from the heat shrinkable tube with adhesive, wherein a shrinkage start temperature of the fixing heat shrinkable tube is higher than a shrinkage start temperature of the heat shrinkable tube with adhesive.
Abstract:
An image acquisition system for wire group processing is a system for recognizing the wire group constituting the wire harness. This image acquisition system includes a first vision system (e.g. a two-dimensional vision system) that acquires first image data for recognizing the wire group constituting the wire harness in a first imaging range, and a second vision system (e.g. a three-dimensional vision system) that acquires second image data for recognizing the wire group constituting the wire harness in a second imaging range which is within a region that overlaps with the first imaging range and is smaller than the first imaging range, the second image data having a greater amount of information per unit of area than that of the first image data.
Abstract:
A wire harness manufacturing method includes a conduction path inserting step of inserting one or a plurality of conduction paths from one end of a resin-made tubular exterior member to the other end thereof, and an exterior member working step of performing post-working on one or a plurality of parts of the exterior member, after the conduction path inserting step. The exterior member working step includes forming a convex-shaped part when viewed from an inner surface side of the exterior member by performing the post-working using heat on an outer surface side of the exterior member. The convex-shaped part is a vibration suppressing part to reduce a play rate of the conduction path in the exterior member and suppress a vibration of the conduction path.
Abstract:
A wire harness includes: a tubular outer member; a conductive path which is inserted in and protected by the outer member; and a vibration suppressing member which reduces a movable range of the conductive path to suppress shakes of the conductive path. The vibration suppressing member includes an inward projection portion which projects inward from a tube inner surface of the outer member in a state in which the vibration suppressing member is attached to the outer member from a side of a tube outer surface after insertion of the conductive path.
Abstract:
To reduce the total stock of external parts in an assembling factory of a wire harness and to provide a wire harness manufacturing device including a wiring board that wires a plurality of electric wires and a molding machine that forms external parts attached to the plurality of electric wires in the assembling factory of the wire harness, a wire harness manufacturing device 1 includes a molding machine 2 that forms external parts 31, 32, 33, 35 and 44 attached to a wire harness 20 and a wiring board 3 having a binding device that wires a plurality of electric wires 40 to a prescribed form.
Abstract:
The invention of the present application provides a wire harness with an improved accuracy of the dimension, that can be manufactured with an easy operation. A protector (4) defines at least either one of a bending shape and a branching shape of a plurality of electric wires (2). A cable tie (10) is attached to the electric wires (2), and includes a distal portion (11a) to be attached to the protector (4). The protector (4) includes an engaging portion (13) engageable with the distal portion (11a). Positions of the electric wires (2) and the protector (4) relative to each other are settled by engagement of the distal portion (11 a) of the cable tie (10) attached to the electric wires (2) with the engaging portion (13).
