The invention relates to an accessory connector device and to a connection system comprising said device, for connecting and locking at least one accessory to at least one cable, wherein the connector device comprises at least one spiral curved wire whose pitch is between 0.1 and 50 cm, extending and forming an outer envelope and an inner zone surrounded by said outer envelope, wherein the spiral curved wire pitch defines spiral sections, so that the connector device comprises between 1 to 1000 spiral sections along its extension, wherein the inner zone of the connector device comprises a spiral axis, so that the outer envelope formed by the spiral curved wire surrounds said spiral axis, wherein said inner area is configured to receive a first cable arranged along the spiral axis, and wherein at least one of the spiral sections of the spiral curved wire is configured to connect the connector device with the accessory in said at least one spiral section, locking the lateral sliding of the accessory with respect to the spiral axis, so that at least part of the accessory is located between the first cable and the spiral curved wire.

An apparatus and method for clipping a fence wire on a T-post.

An apparatus and method for clipping a fence wire on a T-post.

The present invention teaches an apparatus, system, and method for hanging or supporting lumber or similar materials using standard metal t-post which can be used to construct fences or outdoor structures. A first iteration, incorporating fence bracket disclosed herein, eliminates the need for the use of wooden posts to erect a wooden board fence. A second iteration, incorporating a lumber bracket, is used to attach construction lumber to a plurality of t-posts in order to form a basic support structure, in whole or in part, for a variety of outbuildings. The two variations of the bracket may be used independently, or in conjunction with one another, depending on the particular application. The system may be used to erect a new board fence, transition from an existing wire t-post fence to a board fence, and to construct, or assist in the construction of, sheds, coops, barns, and other similar outbuildings.

A catch fence system for use at a race track having a retaining wall. The catch fence system includes first and second frame members with each having a lower front member with a mounting bracket adapted to connect the lower front member to the retaining wall. A first support ring is affixed to the lower front member of the first frame member and a second support ring is affixed to the lower front member of the second frame member. A first front cable extends through the first and second support rings. A first stop block is affixed to first front cable to the outside of and a distance L1 from the first support ring and a second stop block is affixed to the first front cable to the outside of and a distance L2 from the second support ring, wherein the distance L2 is greater than the distance L1.

An article for securing a line to an external surface, such as a fence post, includes a spiral member having a first end and a second end. The first end is adapted to be secured to the external surface. The spiral member has a curved portion extending from the first end. The curved portion has an exterior surface. The second end has an outer surface that overlies in spaced relation the exterior surface of the curved portion. The space between the exterior surface of the curved portion and the outer surface of the second end having a distance that is greater than a diameter or thickness of the line. The spiral member has a circular cross-section. The curved portion extends for greater than 360°.

A cable barrier assembly or system can include line posts extending along a barrier section. Cables can extend along the line posts. In addition, each line post can have a total number of cable retention features that is less than a total number of the cables. Each cable retention feature can include at least a partial loop that limits a range of radial motion of a cable extending through an eye of the partial loop, relative to an axis of the cable.

A wire strand attachment clip including a wire catch that defines a wire strand receiving and holding area configured to receive a wire strand, and a plurality of attachment arms connected to and extending from the wire catch that are dimensionally and biasingly configured to be positioned on a support post to attach the wire strand to that support post such that the attachment arms engage multiple surfaces of the support post.

The invention relates to an accessory connector device and to a connection system comprising said device, for connecting and locking at least one accessory to at least one cable, wherein the connector device comprises at least one spiral curved wire whose pitch is between 0.1 and 50 cm, extending and forming an outer envelope and an inner zone surrounded by said outer envelope, wherein the spiral curved wire pitch defines spiral sections, so that the connector device comprises between 1 to 1000 spiral sections along its extension, wherein the inner zone of the connector device comprises a spiral axis, so that the outer envelope formed by the spiral curved wire surrounds said spiral axis, wherein said inner area is configured to receive a first cable arranged along the spiral axis, and wherein at least one of the spiral sections of the spiral curved wire is configured to connect the connector device with the accessory in said at least one spiral section, locking the lateral sliding of the accessory with respect to the spiral axis, so that at least part of the accessory is located between the first cable and the spiral curved wire.

A barbed-wire t-post installation holder system and method for installing barbed wire on t-posts, providing a removable and re-useable barbed-wire t-post installation holder having a holder body, t-post clips, a post-stud notch, an extending support structure, and chamfered edges on a saddle surface. The barbed-wire t-post installation holder is removably mounted on a t-post, barbed wire is supported in place during installation, barbs pulled across during tightening are raised to the saddle surface by the chamfered edges, the barbed wire is tied to the t-post, and the barbed-wire t-post installation holder is removed to be re-used.
