Abstract
A wire harness including: at least one electric wire; and a braided member that has a plurality of conductive strands that are braided together and surrounds an outer circumference of the at least one electric wire, wherein: the braided member includes an intersection where the strands intersect, and the intersection has a braid where the intersecting strands are double-braided.
Claims6
A braided member comprising:
- a plurality of conductive strands braided together;
- and
- at least one intersection where the strands intersect,
- wherein each intersection of the at least one intersection has a braid where the intersecting strands are double-braided only once,
- wherein, of interior angles of a mesh hole formed by the strands, a branch angle formed by two different strands that branch and extend from the at least one intersection is smaller than a bend angle formed by respective portions of one of the strands that extend on two sides of the at least one intersection, and
- wherein the plurality of conductive strands braided together have a sheet shape, which is wrapped a plurality of turns around an outer circumference of an electric wire.
