Wire harness
One end side of a corrugated tube is urged forward or backward in a closing direction, among a circumference direction around a vertical direction passing through the one end of the corrugated tube, in which a slide structural body is closed with respect to a vehicle body so that the corrugated tube is bendable in a U-shape.
1. A wire harness comprising:
an exterior member having one end attached to a sliding structural body and another end attached to a fixed structural body; and
a biasing member,
wherein at least the one end of the exterior member attached to the sliding structural body is supported pivotally so as to be rotatable in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis passing through the one end of the exterior member,
wherein the one end of the exterior member is configured to rotate in a first rotational direction when the sliding structural body moves to an open position relative to the fixed structural body, and to rotate in a second rotational direction, opposite to the first rotational direction, when the sliding structural body moves from the open position to a closed position relative to the fixed structural body,
wherein the biasing member is configured to bias the one end of the exterior member in one of the first rotational direction and the second rotational direction irrespective of a relative position between the sliding structural body and the fixed structural body so that the exterior member is bendable in a U-shape, and
wherein the exterior member is configured and arranged such that a tension is applied to the exterior member when the sliding structural body is at the closed position relative to the fixed structural body.
2. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the exterior member is supported pivotally at both ends thereof so as to be rotatable in a horizontal plane about vertical axes passing through the both ends, respectively.
3. The wire harness according to claim 1 , further comprising a slide-structural-body-side power supply tool which pivotally supports the exterior member so as to be rotatable in a horizontal plane about the vertical axis passing through the one end of the exterior member,
wherein the slide-structural-body-side power supply tool biases the one end of the exterior member in the one of the first rotational direction and the second rotational direction, and
wherein the slide-structural-body-side power supply tool maintains bias of the one end of the exterior member in the one of the first rotational direction and the second rotational direction irrespective of the relative position between the sliding structural body and the fixed structural body.
4. The wire harness according to claim 3 , further comprising a fixed-structural-body-side power supply tool which pivotally supports the exterior member so as to be rotatable in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis passing through the other end of the exterior member,
wherein a longest distance between two points, in a direction in which the slide structural body and the fixed structural body are opposed to each other, of the exterior member being bent in the U-shape is greater than an interval between the slide-structural-body-side power supply tool and the fixed-structural-body-side power supply tool.
5. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the exterior member is supported pivotally at the one end so as to be rotatable in a horizontal plane about the vertical axis passing through the one end of the exterior member and the exterior member is fixed at the other end so as not to be rotatable in the horizontal plane.
6. The wire harness according to claim 1 , wherein the biasing member is configured to bias the one end of the exterior member in the first rotational direction irrespective of the relative position between the sliding structural body and the fixed structural body.
