<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power feeding device for a sliding door allowing a natural bending moving of a flexible pipe in a comparatively small space, according to opening/closing of the sliding door. <P>SOLUTION: This device is constituted of a fixed block 10 fixed to a vehicle body, a slide rail 12 fixed to the sliding door, a moving block 14 moving along the slide rail 12, the flexible pipe 16 and a flat cable 18. One end part of the flexible pipe 16 and the other end are held by a pipe end holding part 26 of the fixed block 10 and a pipe end holding part 36 of the moving block 14, respectively. The width direction of the flat cable 18 is directed in the vertical direction within the flexible pipe 16. Annular projecting parts 48A and 48B are mounted on an outer periphery of the flexible pipe 16. In the fixed block 10 and the moving block 14, receiving parts 28 and 38 are formed to regulate a bending radius of the flexible pipe 16 since the annular projecting parts 48A and 48B hit when the flexible pipe 16 oscillates in the horizontal direction. The slide door side of the flat cable 18 is drawn into the sliding door by being U-turned in a box 52 integral with the slide rail 12. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
