Abstract
Description
本発明においては、対向する側壁の先端が一定間隔で離隔し、上面が開口しているため、ケーブルの出し入れが容易である。また、側壁は、少なくとも先端部分が内側方向に傾斜又は屈曲しているため、ケーブル保持性に優れ、移動時にケーブルが脱落することがない。更に、底部及び側壁が熱可塑性エラストマーで一体形成されているため、移動時の変形に追従可能で、発塵を抑制することもでき、更には押出成形により容易にかつ低コストで製造することが可能である。
このケーブルガイドは、前記底部に、バネ鋼若しくは繊維強化プラスチックからなる線材又は板材を内包させることもできる。その場合、前記線材又は板材は、接着性樹脂を介して、前記底部と一体化されていてもよい。
また、前記側壁に、その先端から前記底部に向かって延びる複数の切り込みを形成することもできる。
更に、前記底部の裏面にリブ部を一体で形成してもよく、その場合、該リブ部には複数の切り欠きを設けることが望ましい。
更にまた、前記側壁の切り込みと前記リブ部の切り欠きとが、前記底部の長手方向において整合する位置に設けられていてもよい。
更にまた、前記ケーブル収容部には、複数本のケーブルが一体化されたケーブル束を収納することもできる。
更にまた、このケーブルガイドは、例えば、屈曲動作時に、前記底部の裏面が内側に、前記ケーブル収容部の開口部が外側になるように配置される。
このように、側壁に垂直荷重を付加したときの側壁と底部のなす角度の変化量を45°以下とすると、水平方向における撓みが少なくなり、ケーブル保持性が向上する。
また、少なくとも前記側壁の傾斜部又は屈曲部よりも底部側の部分を、前記底部よりも肉厚に形成してもよい。
その場合、側壁全体が前記底部よりも肉厚に形成されていてもよい。
更に、前記底部の裏面に、前記底部よりも肉厚のリブ部が一体で形成することもできる。

又は、前記ケーブル収容部における前記底部と前記側壁との境界部分及び前記底部の裏面と前記リブ部の内面との境界部分の両方を曲面又はC面で構成し、その曲率半径R又はC面寸法を3~10mmとすることもできる。
ここで、C面とは、立体を構成する2面の角部に形成される面であり、角部と平行でかつ角部から一定距離に設けられた二辺をつないだ傾斜面をいう。
又は、少なくとも前記底部及び側壁の内側表面を、JIS K 7125に規定されている方法に従って測定した静摩擦係数が0.7以下かつ動摩擦係数が0.5以下としてもよい。

このケーブルガイドにおける底部及び側壁の内側表面は、例えば、算術平均粗さRaを0.10μm以下、十点平均粗さRzを1.0μm以下とすることができる。
