Patent attributes
A grommet for routing wires between a relatively stationary body and a hinged panel can include a first sealing end and a second sealing end. Two bellows segments can extend between the first and second sealing ends. The bellows segments can be linked by an intermediate portion. A retainer can include a first element having a means for attachment to the intermediate portion and a second element having a means for attachment to the second sealing end of the grommet. The first and second elements can have complementary latch features opposite the attachment means, such that the first and second elements directly connect to each other in a connected position. One of the two bellows segments can be bent between the intermediate portion and the second sealing end of the grommet bringing the intermediate portion into close proximity with the second sealing end.
