Corrugated tube protector
View Patent ↗A box-shape corrugated tube protector includes a side wall including an opening with a guide part at each both sides of the opening; a bottom wall including an insertion depression adapted to receive and support a corrugated tube, in communication with the opening; and a cover adapted to close the opening including a slide part slidably engaging with the guide part, and also including a projecting ridge and a rib inside, wherein the projecting ridge has an end face along a circumference of the corrugated tube, the rib has a projecting end face formed curved or sloped, continuous from the projecting ridge in a sliding direction of the cover, and the end face of the projecting ridge and the projecting end face of the rib smoothly intersects to each other.
1. A box-shaped corrugated tube protector including a side wall and a bottom wall comprising:
an opening disposed in the side wall, and including a guide part at each of both sides of the opening;
an insertion depression for receiving and supporting a corrugated tube, in communication with the opening, and disposed at the bottom wall;
a planar cover for covering the opening including a slide part slidably engaging with the guide part; and
a projecting ridge and a rib provided on an inner circumferential face of the cover, the projecting ridge having an arc-shaped end face along an outer circumferential face of the corrugated tube, and the rib continuous from the projecting ridge in a sliding direction of the cover, having a projecting end face formed arc-shaped or sloped, wherein the end face of the projecting ridge and the projecting end face of the rib smoothly intersect to each other.
2. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the end face of the projecting ridge is arc-shaped so that both sides of the projecting ridge in a circumferential direction is further projected in a radial direction of the corrugated direction than a middle part of the projecting ridge.
3. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the insertion depression includes an inner circumferential face formed at an angle of more than 180-degree in its circumferential direction, the opening continuous from the inner circumferential face is formed smaller than inner diameter of the inner circumferential face.
4. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 2 , wherein
the insertion depression includes an inner circumferential face formed at an angle of more than 180-degree in its circumferential direction, the opening continuous from the inner circumferential face is formed smaller than inner diameter of the inner circumferential face.
5. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a pair of projecting ridges is collaterally arranged in a sliding direction of the cover, and the rib is arranged at each of the pair of projecting ridges.
6. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the insertion depression includes an inner circumferential face formed at an angle of more than 180-degree in its circumferential direction, the opening continuous from the inner circumferential face is formed smaller than inner diameter of the inner circumferential face.
7. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a pair of projecting ridges is collaterally arranged in a sliding direction of the cover, and the rib is arranged at each of the pair of projecting ridges.
8. The corrugated tube protector as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the insertion depression includes an inner circumferential face formed at an angle of more than 180-degree in its circumferential direction, the opening continuous from the inner circumferential face is formed smaller than inner diameter of the inner circumferential face.
