With the wire harness penetrated and attached, insert it into the through hole of the vehicle body from the small-diameter cylindrical part side, and use a grommet that locks the vehicle body locking recess provided on the outer peripheral surface of the large-diameter cylindrical part to the vehicle body panel. A large-diameter end-side wall of the large-diameter cylindrical portion sandwiching the vehicle-body locking recess, and a small-diameter side inclined wall opposed to the wall, wherein the inclined wall is bent inward to form the through hole; A plurality of protruding ridges extending in the axial direction are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged-diameter cylindrical portion, and these protruding ridges are close to each other near the small-diameter end side, and are inclined. At the tip end of the wall, it spreads radially, and between the adjacent ridges, dents formed by the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged-diameter cylindrical portion are generated. A grommet, characterized in that each of the parts has at least as many axial grooves as necessary to reduce the diameter corresponding to a predetermined insertion load at positions corresponding to contact points of the through holes of the vehicle body. are doing.

ませて容易に挿入姿勢を矯正することができる。[0010] The groove provided along the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged diameter cylindrical portion is provided from near the small diameter cylindrical portion to near the tip of the inclined wall. As described above, when the axial groove is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged-diameter cylindrical portion from the vicinity of the continuous end with the small-diameter cylindrical portion to the vicinity of the vehicle body locking concave portion, the grooved portion becomes thin and the grommet is easily bent. . Therefore, even if the grommet is obliquely inserted and the grommet is caught on the inner peripheral surface of the panel through hole, the grommet can be bent to easily correct the insertion posture.

問題を解消することができる。[0011] Further, when a girder is provided with a ridge protruding in the axial direction along the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged-diameter cylindrical portion of the grommet, when the grommet is obliquely inserted, first, the ridge is formed inside the through hole. By hitting the peripheral surface, the operator knows that the insertion is performed diagonally, and the operator can start over to the straight insertion posture.
In addition, when a ridge is projected from the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged diameter cylindrical portion, the enlarged diameter cylindrical portion is reinforced, and when the oblique insertion is performed, the thin enlarged diameter cylindrical portion reaches the inclined wall of the vehicle body locking concave portion. However, it does not cause the phenomenon of warping outward on the side in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the through hole.
Therefore, the problem at the time of oblique insertion which occurred in the conventional grommet can be solved.

力の低減を図ることができる。Further, since the ridges are densely arranged on the small diameter side, it is advantageous in correcting the direction at the time of oblique insertion. On the other hand, in the case of straight insertion, even if the ridges are densely arranged, the insertion force does not increase because they do not contact the inner peripheral surface of the through hole. On the other hand, since the area of the thin recessed portion becomes larger toward the larger diameter side, it becomes easier to bend in the diameter reducing direction, and the insertion force can be reduced.
【0013】上記窪み部に溝を設けているため、突条部
の外面が貫通穴内周面と接触して内側へと撓ませる時
に、溝を中心として縮径方向に撓みやすくなる。Since the recess is provided with a groove, when the outer surface of the ridge comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the through hole and is bent inward, it is easy to bend in the radial direction with the groove as a center.

い。The groove provided in each of the recesses may be provided only at the center, or two grooves may be provided along the base of the ridge. Further, three grooves may be provided, and the grooves on both sides may be provided at positions along the base of the ridge. in this case,
The grooves on both sides may protrude to the tip side of the inclined wall, and the length of the groove may be reduced to near the tip in the center. In addition, both side grooves may be provided along the base of the protruding ridge portion, and a C-shaped groove may be provided in which the front ends of the both side grooves and the center groove are continuous.

とができる。If a single groove is provided at the center of the triangular depression as described above, it becomes easy to bend around this groove. When a groove is provided at the base of the ridge, the ridge is easily bent from the base. Furthermore, if one piece at the center and two pieces at the base are added, the ease of bending is doubled. Furthermore, since the area of the depression increases on the front end side, if a C-shaped groove that connects the front end of the center groove and both side grooves is provided, the groove guides the groove in the direction in which the depression is folded. The diameter can be reduced without difficulty.

いは、円弧形状としている。The amount of protrusion of the ridge portion is changed at a position that is a point of contact with the inner surface of the through hole when the ridge is inserted into the through hole. Further, it is preferable that the protrusion has a portion having a different inclination angle from the contact point to the tip of the inclined wall, and the inclination angle of a portion connected to the tip of the inclined wall be minimized. The portion where the amount of protrusion is reduced has a shape in which the outer surface of the ridge portion is bent at different inclination angles. Alternatively, it has an arc shape.

め、挿入力の低減を図ることができる。With the above structure, when the grommet is inserted into the through hole of the vehicle body panel, a sense of moderation is generated when the contact point is reached, because the inclination angle of the outer surface of the ridge is changed. From this point of contact, it is necessary to bend the inclined wall inward and push it in.Therefore, from the point when the sense of moderation occurs, the worker increases the force at a stretch and pushes it in. It can be carried out. Further, since the amount of protrusion of the ridge portion is reduced from the contact point, the insertion force can be reduced.

It is a tape winding fixed part with the wire harness. As described above, when the wire harness is fixed at the both ends in the length direction of the grommet provided with the second small-diameter cylindrical portion by tape, it is possible to increase the work time for inserting the grommet into the through hole. Further, a lip protrudes from the bottom surface between the large-diameter end side wall and the inclined wall of the vehicle body locking recess. By providing the lip, the sealing property can be improved. Furthermore, the large-diameter end side wall of the vehicle body locking recess projects radially outward from the tip of the inclined wall.

If the cable insertion tube portion is provided as described above in which the opening of the cable insertion tube portion is located in the recessed portion between the ridges, if there is an optional component, a cable to be connected to the optional component is provided. The cable can be passed through the through-hole of the vehicle body panel through the cable insertion tube portion, and the usability is improved. The protruding end of the cable insertion tube portion is set as a closed end, and the end is cut off at the time of use so that the cable can be inserted through the opening. Further, since the opening of the cable insertion cylinder is provided in the depression of the enlarged diameter cylinder, the depression can be easily deformed, and the insertion force at the time of the insertion operation into the through hole can be reduced.

る。The grommet mounting operation will be described below. The first small-diameter cylindrical portion 11 is pushed into the through hole 30 from the outdoor side (Y) side. At this time, if the grommet 10 is obliquely inclined, a part of the ridge 20 hits the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 30 and a contact resistance is generated. Thereby, the worker corrects the insertion posture of the grommet 10. In addition, since a large number of protrusions 20 are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the thin-walled enlarged-diameter cylindrical portion 13,
When the grommet 10 is obliquely inserted, the rigidity of the enlarged-diameter tube portion 13 is increased, so that it is possible to reliably prevent the enlarged-diameter tube portion 13 at a portion pressed against the inner peripheral surface of the through hole from being bent.

When the contact point P3 is reached, an operator feels moderation by pressing the outer surface 20a of the ridge 20 and the inner peripheral surface of the through hole. From this point, the operator pushes the grommet 10 at a stretch, and passes the ridge 20 through the through-hole 30 so as to crush it.

Since the grooves 22, 24A, and 24B are provided in the recess 21 between them, the recess 21 is easily bent in the circumferential direction. Therefore, the concave portion 21 bends so as to bulge in a mountain shape between the adjacent protruding ridge portions 20 whose interval is reduced when the diameter is reduced, and the ridge portion 20 can be smoothly reduced in diameter. And the ridge 20
Since the angle of inclination is small and the amount of protrusion from the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged diameter cylindrical portion 13 is small, a large pushing force is not required, and the pushing can be performed with a low insertion force.

When the inclined wall 14c passes through the through-hole 30, it returns elastically to the initial position, and the peripheral portion of the through-hole 30 is dropped into the groove 14b between the inclined wall 14c and the vertical wall 14a. In this state, the opposing surfaces of the inclined wall 14c and the vertical wall 14a are pressed against both surfaces of the vehicle body panel P, and are pressed against the lip 14h protruding from the groove bottom of the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 30, so that the grommet 10 is It is locked in the through hole 30 of the vehicle body panel P in a sealed state.

め、グロメット10の脱落を防止できる。As described above, since the grommet 10 is provided with the protruding ridges 20 on the outer peripheral surface of the enlarged-diameter tube portion 13, the operator can correct the oblique insertion posture and reinforce the thin-walled enlarged-diameter tube portion. In this way, it is possible to prevent bending, which is likely to occur at the time of oblique insertion, and to prevent the grommet 10 from being unable to be inserted into the through hole 30 even when obliquely inserted. Further, in the vicinity of the protruding end of the inclined wall, the inclined wall 14c is straightened by the ridge 20.
Are guided so as to pass through the through-hole 30, so that the through-hole 30 can be smoothly passed without causing deformation near the protruding end of the inclined wall. Furthermore,
Since the grooves 22, 24A and 24B are provided so that the recesses 21 between the ridges 20 are folded, the diameter is uniformly reduced in the circumferential direction, and the grommet 10 is inserted into the through hole of the vehicle body panel with low insertion force. Can be locked. And grommet 10
Even if the wire harness is pulled and a load in the direction of dropping from the first small-diameter tubular portion 11 is generated after the wire harness is attached to the vehicle body panel, the second small-diameter tubular portion 12 is wound around the wire harness by tape and fixed. The grommet 10 can be prevented from falling off to resist the pulling force of the harness.

The difference is that a groove 23 is provided at the tip of the grooves 24A and 24B to be connected in an inverted C-shape. When the groove 23 is provided, the central groove 22 and the grooves 24A and 24B on both sides can be linked with each other to facilitate bending. In FIG. 10B, two grooves 24A and 24B are formed only at the base of the ridge 20. In FIG. 10C, only one groove 22 is provided at the center in the circumferential direction of the recess 21. Thus, the depression 2
Even if the number of grooves provided in 1 is changed, the grommet can be easily bent in the diameter reducing direction.

It is sufficient that the number is not more than the number, and the number can be appropriately set in relation to the thickness of the ridge portion. Further, the second small-diameter cylindrical portion on the large diameter side of the large-diameter cylindrical portion may be omitted. However, in consideration of falling off after the grommet is attached to the through hole of the vehicle body panel, the second small-diameter cylindrical portion is provided to provide the wire harness. It is preferable to fix the tape. Also, it is not always necessary to provide a cable insertion tube for optional parts. Further, it goes without saying that the present invention can also be applied to a grommet in which the through hole has an elliptical shape and the enlarged-diameter cylindrical portion has an elliptical cross-section.

When the groove is provided in the protruding portion and the concave portion therebetween, the diameter of the enlarged diameter cylindrical portion can be reduced smoothly. Further, when the amount of protrusion of the ridge from the position where the ridge contacts the inner peripheral surface of the through-hole is reduced, the grommet can be inserted and locked into the through-hole with low insertion force. At this time, the inclination angle of the outer surface of the ridge is changed at the position where the ridge contacts the inner peripheral surface of the through hole to give the worker a sense of moderation, so pushing the grommet at a stretch from this moderation position will improve efficiency. Good grommet mounting work can be performed.
