1. A harness clamp comprising
a harness clamp body including:
a base part;
an upright part extending from a first end of the base part in a direction away from the base part via a first bent part;
a fixing part extending from a distal end of the upright part toward a side opposite to the base part via a second bent part and fixed to a fixing target;
a folding back part folded back from a second end of the base part;
a first elongated part extending substantially parallel to the base part from a distal end of the folding back part toward the upright part and further extending in a direction to approach the base part via a third bent part; and
a second elongated part extending from a distal end of the first elongated part in a direction away from the base part via a fourth bent part, a distal end of the second elongated part being a free end, wherein:
the distal end of the second elongated part and the upright part define a first gap;
the fourth bent part and the base part define a second gap;
the base part, the folding back part, and the first elongated part define a first clamp space, the first clamp space is a space in which a harness is held;
the base part, the upright part, and the second elongated part define a second clamp space, the second clamp space is a space in which the harness is deformed as a result of passing through the second gap from the first clamp space;
a length of the second gap is less than a diameter of the harness, and a length of the first gap is less than a maximum diameter of the deformed harness; and
the upright part extends substantially perpendicular to the base part.
