A wire harness producing method configured to produce a wire harness by arranging a plurality of display devices end to end, each including a display portion and a bezel arranged around a periphery of the display portion, displaying a wire laying-out drawing on the display devices, and laying out an electric wire along the wire laying-out drawing. The method includes compartmentalizing a two-dimensional image of the wire harness into display regions to be displayed on the display portions of the display devices respectively and non-display regions corresponding to the bezels of the display devices respectively, with the display regions and the non-display regions conforming to sizes of the display portions and the bezels respectively, trimming the two-dimensional image to create wire laying-out image data composed of only the display regions, and displaying the wire laying-out drawing on the display devices, based on the wire laying-out image data.

A wire harness routing structure for a panel, includes: a panel member that includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface; and a wire harness that is routed to the panel member. The first surface has a harness accommodating groove that accommodates a harness main body of the wire harness, the harness accommodating groove being recessed toward the second surface. A resin cured portion that holds the harness main body is formed in the harness accommodating groove. The resin cured portion is formed by a resin with which a predetermined range of the harness accommodating groove is filled and which is cured.

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 spacer for maintaining one or more wires during a molding process, the spacer having an external frame, and a plurality of spring curved leaves. Each spring curved leaf has a fixed end attached to an inner face of the external frame and a free end. The free ends of the plurality of spring curved leaves are arranged to flexibly wrap the one or more wires.
