Patent ID: 8192230

Claim:
A wire harness, comprising: a plurality of cables arranged in parallel; and a connector comprising a housing to which end portions of the plurality of cables are connected, wherein the housing comprises an air-tight block at a side thereof that the plurality of cables are connected, the air-tight block comprising a plurality of cable insertion holes formed in parallel through which the plurality of cables are inserted into the housing, wherein the cable insertion holes are formed to have a gap with a predetermined distance between the cables and the air-tight block, two adjacent ones of the cable insertion holes being formed to overlap with each other and to communicate with each other, wherein the air-tight block further comprises two closing parts for closing a space between the air-tight block and the cables at two places along a longitudinal direction of the cables, and for defining a part of the cable insertion hole, an insertion part into which a melting member formed of a resin is inserted without pressing the cables, and which communicates with the cable insertion hole between the closing parts, and a press receiving part formed in an inner wall surface of the insertion part or the cable insertion hole, for allowing a forward end of the melting member inserted to be pressed, wherein a metallic member protruding outwardly in a radial direction of the cables is fixed by swaging to a periphery of the cables between both of the two closing parts for restricting a movement of the cables along the longitudinal direction in a pulling force or pressing force of the cables, and wherein air-tightness between the air-tight block and the cables is maintained by: that the melting member is inserted into the insertion part, and the melting member is vibrated and pressed to the press receiving part so that a forward end portion of the melting member in contact with the press receiving part is melted into a melt resin, the melt resin is poured into the gap between the closing parts, and a periphery of the cables is covered with the melt resin.
