Patent ID: 7547059

Claim:
A cable-passage system between a body and a door of a motor vehicle, comprising: a flexible sheath through which electric cables pass, the sheath including an axially extensible part, wherein a first end of the axially extensible part is fixed to the body and a second end of the axially extensible part is connected to an edge wall of the door on a border of a cable-passage orifice cut into the edge wall, such that the axially extensible part of the sheath becomes longer when the door is opened, and a deformable in flexion part connected to the axially extensible part, wherein a first end of the deformable in flexion part is joined to the body at a cable passage in a body wall, and a second end of the deformable in flexion part is fixed to the body; and a fixation member configured to fix the first end of the axially extensible part and the second end of the deformable in flexion part to the body, wherein the cables have sufficient free length inside the door such that the cables can slide into the sheath to absorb length variations of the sheath during pivoting of the door.
