The present invention aims to suppress a case in which paths of linear transmission members are disturbed on a sheet-shaped member or the linear transmission members separate from the sheet-shaped member. The wiring member includes a sheet-shaped member and multiple linear transmission members that are fixed on the sheet-shaped member. The multiple linear transmission members are fixed on the sheet-shaped member such that a portion of the multiple linear transmission members intersects with respect to another said linear transmission member. An intersection location of the multiple linear transmission members is located away from a folding track.

A distribution member includes plural electric wire pairs each including a pair of electric wires, a first fixing member integrally fixing the electric wire pairs, and a second fixing member that is separated from the first fixing member and integrally fixes electric wires of at least one of the electric wire pairs. The first fixing member and the second fixing member each include a holder holding the electric wires and a resin mold part that includes a molding resin and is molded so as to cover a part of the electric wire pairs held by the holder. The holder includes at least one interposed part that is interposed between the held electric wires. The distribution member further includes a combining part that is integrally formed with the holders of the first and second fixing members and combines the holders of the first and second fixing members.

A method is described that is suitable for automated use of peg apparatus and an electrical wire harness peg board. The pegs are utilized on a wire harness peg board during the assembly of a wire harness, and are particularly well suited for use in an automated assembly of the electrical wire harness where a constant upward, downward or lateral tension is desired without altering the free ends of each wire of a bundled wire harness.

A wire harness includes: an electrical wire including a core wire and an insulating covering for covering the core wire; and a sheet material in which the electrical wire is disposed on a resin main surface, and a part of the main surface having contact with the electrical wire is welded to the insulating covering of the electrical wire, thereby forming an electrical wire fixing part. A largest thickness dimension in the electrical wire fixing part in the sheet material is formed larger than a thickness dimension in a part of the sheet material where the electrical wire is not disposed.

A wiring harness (1010), a motor vehicle component (1000), a mold (15) for manufacturing a wiring harness (1010), a mold system (10) and a method for manufacturing the wiring harness (1010), the wiring harness (1010) comprising at least one bunch (1020) of at least two cables (1025) and a sheath (1030), at least some sections of the bunch (1020) of cables being embedded in the sheath (1030).

An apparatus includes an extruding device configured to dispense a dielectric material though an orifice, a wire feed device configured to feed a conductive wire through the orifice, and a cutting device configured to sever the wire. It also includes an electronic controller configured to control the extruding device, the wire feed device, and the cutting device. The electronic controller commands the extruding device to dispense the dielectric material though the orifice, the wire feed device to feed the wire through the orifice, and the cutting device to sever the wire, thereby forming a dielectric substrate encasing a plurality of wires. The electronic controller further commands the extruding device to form an opening defined in the substrate in which plurality of electrically conductive wires is exposed and a location feature on the substrate located with a positional tolerance less than or equal to 1 mm relative to the opening.
