Analysis device and program
View Patent ↗An analysis device includes a memory unit, a recording unit, and an arithmetic processing unit. The arithmetic processing unit determines, by referring to a physical value of each of elements stored in the memory unit and a program recorded in the recording unit, whether or not a protector main body and a lid are in contact with each other in reproducing a state where a harness is contained inside the protector main body and an opening of the protector main body is covered by the lid.
1. An analysis device for evaluating whether or not a lid for covering an opening of a protector main body is attachable to the protector main body with a wire harness contained inside through the opening, the analysis device comprising:
a memory storing a value of an element corresponding to a part of the wire harness, a value of an element corresponding to a part of the protector main body, and a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid, in a modeled assembly with respect to each of the elements;
a storage medium storing a program for simulating a shape of the wire harness; and
a processor that determines, by referring to the value of each of the elements stored in the memory and executing the program stored in the storage medium to perform a simulation, whether or not the protector main body and the lid are in contact with each other in a state where the wire harness is contained inside the protector main body and the opening of the protector main body is at least partially covered by the lid,
wherein the processor determines whether or not the protector main body and the lid are in contact with each other by determining whether a pair of elements respectively disposed on the protector main body and the lid apply stresses having a same magnitude but in opposite directions.
2. The analysis device according to claim 1 , wherein a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid divided, for modeling, into a first lid portion is stored in the memory;
wherein a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid divided, for modeling, into a second lid portion is stored in the memory; and
wherein the processor determines whether or not the protector main body and the first lid portion are in contact with each other, and whether or not the protector main body and the second lid portion are in contact with each other.
3. The analysis device according to claim 2 , wherein the memory stores:
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the protector main body including a first latch portion;
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the protector main body including a second latch portion,
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid divided, for modeling, into the first lid portion having a first latched portion,
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid divided, for modeling, into the second lid portion having a second latched portion; and
wherein the processor determines whether or not the first latch portion and the first latched portion are in contact with each other, and whether or not the second latch portion and the second latched portion are in contact with each other.
4. The analysis device according to claim 1 , wherein the memory stores:
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the protector main body including a first latch portion;
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the protector main body including a second latch portion,
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid divided, for modeling, into a first lid portion having a first latched portion,
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid divided, for modeling, into a second lid portion having a second latched portion; and
wherein the processor determines whether or not the first latch portion and the first latched portion are in contact with each other, and whether or not the second latch portion and the second latched portion are in contact with each other.
5. A method for evaluating whether or not a lid for covering an opening of a protector main body is attachable to the protector main body with a wire harness contained inside through the opening, the method comprising:
storing, in a memory:
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the wire harness,
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the protector main body, and
a value of an element corresponding to a part of the lid, in a modeled assembly with respect to each of the elements;
storing, in a storage medium, a program for simulating a shape of the wire harness; and
determining, by referring to the value of each of the elements stored in the memory and executing the program stored in the storage medium to perform a simulation, whether or not the protector main body and the lid are in contact with each other in a state where the wire harness is contained inside the protector main body and the opening of the protector main body is at least partially covered by the lid,
wherein the determining comprises analyzing whether or not the protector main body and the lid are in contact with each other by determining whether a pair of elements respectively disposed on the protector main body and the lid apply stresses having a same magnitude but in opposite directions.
