Abstract

An electrical wire holding device includes a seal retention member having an insertion hole configured to allow an electrical wire to be inserted therethrough, and housed in a mounting hole formed in a mounted member, an outer periphery seal member retained on an outer peripheral surface of the seal retention member, and sealing a gap between an inner surface of the mounting hole and seal retention member, and an electrical wire holding member juxtaposed with the seal retention member along the electrical wire, and having a fixing part configured to retain the electrical wire and fixing the electrical wire to the mounted member. The seal retention member is configured to be relatively movable to the electrical wire holding member.

Claims (24)

1. An electrical wire holding device, comprising:

a seal retention member including an insertion hole configured to allow an electrical wire to be inserted therethrough, and housed in a mounting hole formed in a mounted member;

an outer periphery seal member retained on an outer peripheral surface of the seal retention member, and sealing a gap between an inner surface of the mounting hole and the seal retention member; and

an electrical wire holding member juxtaposed with the seal retention member along the electrical wire, and including a fixing part configured to retain the electrical wire and fixing the electrical wire to the mounted member,

wherein the seal retention member is configured to be relatively movable to the electrical wire holding member when the electrical wire holding member is fixed to the mounted member by tightening of a bolt.

2. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical wire holding member is configured such that an end portion thereof facing the seal retention member is formed as a fitting part interiorly fitted to the mounting hole.

3. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 2 , wherein the electrical wire holding member comprises a holding hole configured to retain the electrical wire, and the holding hole includes a gap between the electrical wire in the end portion.

4. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , further comprising an inner periphery seal member retained on an inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole of the seal retention member, and sealing a gap between the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole and the electrical wire.

5. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , further comprising a latching mechanism disposed between the seal retention member and the electrical wire holding member, and being capable of inhibiting a relative movement between the seal retention member and the electrical wire holding member in a central axis direction of the insertion hole of the seal retention member.

6. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical wire holding member comprises an electrical wire holder configured to hold the electrical wire, and a housing member integrally comprising a housing part configured to house at least a part of the electrical wire holder and the fixing part.

7. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 6 , wherein the seal retention member is configured to be swingable to the electrical wire holder.

8. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 7 , wherein the seal retention member comprises a body part, a neck part projecting from the body part, and a head part disposed in an end portion of the neck part, and the electrical wire holder comprises a latching part configured to latch the head part by allowing the neck part to be inserted therethrough.

9. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 6 , wherein the seal retention member is configured to be relatively movable with respect to the housing member along a turning direction of the bolt when the housing member is fixed to the mounted member by tightening the bolt to the mounted member, and the seal retention member is not housed in the housing member.

10. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 9 , wherein the turning direction of the bolt includes a direction parallel to a side surface of the seal retention member and a side surface of the electrical wire holding member.

11. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 6 , wherein the seal retention member is housed outside the housing member.

12. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical wire holding member integrally comprises a body part configured to retain the electrical wire and the fixing part.

13. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the seal retention member is configured to be relatively movable with respect to the electrical wire holding member along a turning direction of the bolt.

14. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the bolt tightens the fixing part of the electrical wire holding member to the mounted member.

15. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 14 , wherein the fixing part comprises a plurality of through holes and the mounted member comprises a plurality of screw holes located on an outer surface of the mounted member such that the bolt is tightened to the screw holes via the through holes.

16. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the fixing part comprises a plurality of through holes and the mounted member comprises a plurality of screw holes located on an outer surface of the mounted member such that the bolt is tightened to the screw holes via the through holes.

17. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the seal retention member is relatively movable with respect to the electrical wire holding member along a direction parallel to a side surface of the seal retention member and a side surface of the electrical wire holding member.

18. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 17 , wherein the seal retention member and the electrical wire holding member are relatively movable along the side surface of the seal retention member and the side surface of the electrical wire holding member.

19. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 1 , wherein the seal retention member, the fixing part, and the electrical wire holding member are relatively movable along a turning direction of the bolt.

20. The electrical wire holding device according to claim 19 , wherein the turning direction of the bolt includes a direction parallel to a side surface of the seal retention member and a side surface of the electrical wire holding member.
