Abstract

A wire harness includes one or more conductive paths, and a conductive path protection member that covers the conductive path. The conductive path protection member is formed into a cylindrical shape by spirally winding a metal wire material and portions of the metal wire material positioned to be adjacent to each other contact with each other at side end faces opposed to each other.

Claims (14)

1. A wire harness comprising:

one or more conductive paths: and

a conductive path protection member that covers the conductive path, wherein the conductive path protection member is formed into a cylindrical shape by spirally winding a metal wire material and portions of the metal wire material positioned to be adjacent to each other contact with each other at side end faces opposed to each other,

the side end faces opposed to each other comprise flat surfaces substantially parallel to each other,

the metal wire material includes a first metal wire material and a second metal wire material, which have a cross-section shape different from each other, and

the conductive path protection member is formed by spirally winding the first metal wire material and the second metal wire material and portions of the first metal wire material and the second metal wire material positioned to be adjacent to each other, alternately, contact with each other at side end faces opposed to each other,

the conductive path includes a conductor and a shield member that covers the conductor.

2. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein an edge processing component is provided in a terminal of the conductive path protection member.

3. The wire harness according to claim 1 , further comprising a covering member that covers the conductive path protection member,

wherein the covering member has a predetermined color.

4. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the metal wire material comprises a band plate-shaped metal wire material having a rectangular sectional shape.

5. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein

the first metal wire material comprises a first band plate-shaped metal wire material having a rectangular sectional shape, and

the second metal wire material comprises a second band plate-shaped metal wire material having a rectangular sectional shape, a cross sectional area of the first band plate-shaped metal wire material being different from a cross sectional area of the second band plate-shaped metal wire material.
