Holder for tube connector and holding structure

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a holder for holding a tube connector for an in-vehicle component. The holder includes a first arm that has a first engaging portion, a second arm that has a second engaging portion, and a fastener. A proximal portion of the first arm is connected to a proximal portion of the second arm at a connection point. The first arm and the second arm are configured to be flexible toward each other by flexing about the connection point. The first engaging portion and the second engaging portion engage with the tube connector by clamping the tube connector therebetween. The fastener fixes the proximal portion of the first arm and the proximal portion of the second arm to a base while biasing the first arm and the second arm toward each other.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
