Aircraft cable routing system and method of installation thereof

A cable routing system is disclosed including a routing fixture and an exit fitting. The routing fixture defines a channel for a cable. The channel is engaged by the exit fitting and a cable in the channels exits through an exit channel defined by the exit fitting. The exit channel is directed away from the channel in the routing fixture. The resulting assembly allows low profile cable runs that can conform to a structural surface and in which cables can be broken out easily, without a requirement to cut the cable. A clamp may be provided to further secure the exit fitting to the routing fixture. A method of installation involves installing a cable into a routing channel before installing the exit fitting. The cable routing system can be used in an aircraft, including space constrained areas such as within an aircraft wing.

RECIRCULATION WHEEL FOR IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
20220248613 · 2022-08-11 ·

Described is an irrigation system for large greenhouses including rails, an irrigation carriage including at least one irrigation bar equipped with suitable nozzles, a primary hose connected or connectable to the irrigation carriage and a secondary hose connected or connectable to the irrigation carriage.

The irrigation system also includes a recirculation wheel configured to keep the primary hose and secondary hose taut during a sliding of the irrigation carriage and defining a first sliding channel and a second sliding channel configured, respectively, to receive at least partly the primary hose and the secondary hose so as to maintain sliding axes of the primary hose and secondary hose parallel to each other and lying on a same sliding plane.

Tube management assembly

The tube management assembly employs a track, one or more mounting clips that are slidably mounted in the track and clamps that are snap-fitted into the mounting clips. In one embodiment, the mounting clip has a pair of resilient walls with inwardly directed lips for engaging in arcuate grooves in the sides of the clamp. In another embodiment, the mounting clip has a base slidably mounted in the track and a mounting block extending from the base and including a recess for receiving a tube transversely of the track.

Support assembly for swivellably supporting hydraulic lines
11408538 · 2022-08-09 · ·

A support assembly for hydraulic lines is disclosed. The support assembly includes a frame designed to retain at least one ring within its opening. Each ring is configured to be secured about a single hydraulic hose, thus simultaneously securing it within the frame. Each ring can rotate with respect to the frame about their longitudinal axis, reducing the stress exerted directly on the hydraulic line. The support assembly further includes a second frame in which the frame is attached. The frame can rotate about an axis that is perpendicular to the rotation of the rings to further lessen the stress on the hydraulic lines. The support assembly is attached to a hydraulically operated machine by a base plate or bracket onto which the second frame is fixedly attached.

Household appliance

A household appliance has a main body, a chamber with an opening, and a drawer door closing the chamber. A support mechanism is connected between the drawer door and the main body. A cable extends between the main body and the drawer door and a guidance mechanism guides the cable and moves with the drawer door. The guidance mechanism includes a bendable member that moves along a moving path including a bent portion. A limiting mechanism limits the bendable member to move within the moving path and a preset error range. A structure of a component surrounding the guidance mechanism in the household appliance is improved, so that a moving track of the guidance mechanism can be guided and limited when the guidance mechanism moves as the drawer door moves. This helps the guidance mechanism and the cable move through an expected track.

Strain Relief Assembly
20220260182 · 2022-08-18 ·

A strain relief assembly is disclosed comprising a support for mounting on a tray or the like and an elongate support member to which is rotatably mounted a strain relief member. The strain relief member is secured to the support member by a securing mechanism comprising a shaft which travels within a shaft receiving bore between a secured position, wherein a first shaft end of the shaft presses against a free end of the second portion and thereby preventing rotation of the elongate strain relief member and a released position wherein the shaft is positioned away from the free end of the second portion and such that the elongate strain relief member is rotatable.
