Abstract

The harness fixing device comprises: a rotatable member for holding a wiring harness; and a fixing device body for holding the rotatable member rotatably in the circumferential direction, wherein the rotatable member is provided with a harness guiding wall having a curved shape and the harness guiding wall is rotatable integrally with the wiring harness. The rotatable member is movable in the longitudinal direction of the harness in the fixing device body simultaneously with the rotation. The harness guiding wall is formed over the whole circumference of the rotatable member. An inner surface of the harness guiding wall is flush with an inner surface for holding the harness of the rotatable member. The rotatable member has a portion for holding a corrugated tube of the wiring harness.

Claims

1. A harness fixing device comprising:

a rotatable member for holding a wiring harness; and

a fixing device body for holding the rotatable member rotatably in the circumferential direction,

wherein the rotatable member is provided with a harness guiding wall having a curved shape and the harness guiding wall is rotatable integrally with the wiring harness.

2. The harness fixing device according to claim 1, wherein the rotatable member is movable in the longitudinal direction of the harness in the fixing device body simultaneously with the rotation.

3. The harness fixing device according to claim 2, wherein the harness guiding wall is formed over the whole circumference of the rotatable member.

4. The harness fixing device according to claim 3, wherein an inner surface of the harness guiding wall is flush with an inner surface of the rotatable member, said inner surface of the rotatable member holding the harness.

5. The harness fixing device according to claim 2, wherein an inner surface of the harness guiding wall is flush with an inner surface of the rotatable member, said inner surface of the rotatable member holding the harness.

6. The harness fixing device according to claim 1, wherein the harness guiding wall is formed over the whole circumference of the rotatable member.

7. The harness fixing device according to claim 6, wherein an inner surface of the harness guiding wall is flush with an inner surface of the rotatable member, said inner surface of the rotatable member holding the harness.

8. The harness fixing device according to claim 1, wherein an inner surface of the harness guiding wall is flush with an inner surface of the rotatable member, said inner surface of the rotatable member holding the harness.

9. The harness fixing device as claimed in any one of claims 1-4, wherein the rotatable member has a portion for holding a corrugated tube of the wiring harness.
