Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems are provided for an integrated bracket for securely retaining one or more cables of a harness to a vehicle body. In one example design, the integrated bracket may include a first plate with an opening to receive a fastener to securely attach the bracket to the vehicle body; an inlet gate coupled to the first plate; a second plate coupled and angled to the first plate; a protection shield extending from the first plate; and an exit gate attached to the second plate, each gate having an extending arm pair. In one example, by routing the cables of the harness through the bracket, and securely retaining the cables using clamps on the inlet and outlet gates, the bracket provides a simplified system for securely attaching the harness to the engine, thereby minimizing unnecessary cable movement, while reducing stresses exerted on the harness.
