Method for Manufacturing a Wire Harness

摘要

A method for assembling a wire harness on a display surface, the wire harness comprising bundles, each one of which corresponds to a bundle route selected among possible bundle routes and each one of the possible bundle routes comprising two ends. The method comprises receiving coordinates of a layout of the wire harness; generating at least a portion of all the possible bundle routes by identifying coordinates of portions of each of the two ends from the coordinates of the layout of the wire harness. Then determining which bundle routes among the possible bundle routes correspond to the bundles to be used. Defining, from the coordinates, a sequence in which the bundles are to be routed and generating a plurality of signals. Finally sending each one of the signals for display sequentially on the display surface according to the defined sequence.

1. A method for assembling a wire harness on a display surface, the wire harness comprising bundles, each one of the bundles corresponding to a bundle route selected among possible bundle routes, each one of the possible bundle routes comprising a first end and a second end, the method comprising:
receiving coordinates of a layout of the wire harness; generating at least a portion of all the possible bundle routes by identifying coordinates of the first end and the second end of each one of the at least a portion of all the possible bundle routes from the coordinates of the layout of the wire harness; receiving wiring data which identifies the bundles to be used for the wire harness; determining which bundle routes among the possible bundle routes correspond to the bundles to be used; defining, from the coordinates of the first end and the second end of each one of the determined bundle routes, a sequence in which the bundles are to be routed to assemble the wire harness; generating a plurality of signals, each one of the plurality of signals being representative of an image of the bundle route for a corresponding one of the bundles to be routed; and sending each one of the plurality of signals for display sequentially on the display surface according to the defined sequence.
