Cable management device and associated system and methods
The disclosure is related to cable management devices and associated systems and methods. The cradle has an elongate body having at least a first end and a second end. The first end of the cradle defining an elongate securement lumen constructed and arranged to grasp a support structure. The cradle may also have a first curved portion and second curved portion defining a first major sector lumen and a second major sector lumen each securement lumen constructed and arranged to support various cables and wires.
DISPENSER CASSETTE FOR USE IN A PERISTALTIC PUMP
A dispenser cassette is shown and described for attachment to a peristaltic pump that has a first cartridge, second cartridge, and tubes, which are accommodated in the dispenser cassette such that both ends of the tubes are each inserted into one of the cartridges. According to the invention, the two cartridges are connected to one another by an elastic connector.
Modular Conduit Systems with Alignment Members
Modular conduit alignment and resultant conduit systems are disclosed herein. An example system includes a plurality of modular sections, one of which connects to an terminal enclosure, each of the plurality of conduit assemblies having at least one coupler assembly having a first plurality of conduit interfaces extending from a first side of the at least one coupler assembly and a second plurality of conduit interfaces a second side of the at least one coupler assembly. The first plurality of conduit interfaces and the second plurality of conduit interfaces are aligned and form pathways that allow wiring to extend through the plurality of modular sections when the plurality of modular sections are arranged in series.
MODULAR CEILING SYSTEM
A structural grid support system adapted for transferring seismic loads to the vertical structural supports of a modular structure. The system includes larger and longer high load capacity main runners with mechanically fastened cross tees, which transfer seismic forces without failing. The structural grid can provide a diaphragm using mechanically fastened connections in a single horizontal plane without requiring additional overhead support from the roof deck, or requiring fewer such supports. The main runners may include additional connecting elements disposed within the usable space beneath the runner (e.g., ventral threaded receivers) for attaching deployment-specific equipment or hardware, such as network cable trays.

METHOD OF ADAPTING ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT STRUCTURE FOR CABLE MANAGEMENT
A method of adapting an electronic equipment structure for cable management, the method comprising: providing a cable manager having one or more cable finger units extending from a frame, the frame including at least one spine member having an extruded construction and one or more ledges that extend along a length thereof; providing an accessory rod assembly having a base member and an accessory rod, wherein the base member includes a front-facing socket, a rear-facing hook, and a rotatable knob having a threaded end received within a threaded portion at a side of the base member, and wherein the accessory rod has an extruded construction and a generally uniform, at least partially cylindrical, cross-sectional shape; positioning the rear-facing hook of the base member against one side of the one or more ledges of the at least one spine member; rotating the rotatable knob such that the threaded end is wound within the threaded portion of the base member and bears on an opposite side of the one or more ledges of the at least one spine member, thereby clamping the at least one spine member between the rear-facing hook and the rotatable knob; and positioning a proximal end of the accessory rod within the front-facing socket of the base member such that the accessory rod extends therefrom into a cable management space.
CABLE FASTENER
An improved fastener for securing cables to metal studs has two main components: a cable clip assembly and a dual spacer. The cable clip assembly supports a plurality of cable clips with three mutually perpendicular planar structures for sturdiness. The cable clip assembly can be mounted directly to the flat side of a metal stud. Mount holes are provided non-coplanar with the cables, to provide easy access for screw mounting. The dual spacer attaches to the cable clip assembly. The dual spacer adapts the fastener for secure mounting to the open side of a metal stud.
Hanger for mounting multiple cables
A cable hanger for mounting cables to a mounting structure includes: a base panel; a pair of arms attached to opposite ends of the base panel; and a pair of locking projections, each locking projection being attached adjacent a free end of a respective arm. Each arm is configured to define a respective internal cavity configured to grasp cable. The arms and the base panel combine to define an external cavity for grasping cable. The cable hanger can be deflected from a relaxed state to a deflected state by forcing the locking projections toward each other. In the deflected state the cable hanger may be mounted to a mounting structure, with the arms inserted through a hole in the mounting structure and exerting outward pressure on edges of the hole, and the locking projections maintaining the cable hanger in a mounted position on the mounting structure.
Pedal organizer and related system
One aspect of the disclosure relates to a pedal organizer. The pedal organizer may include: a first pedal retaining member including a front surface, a rear surface opposite the front surface, a top surface, and a bottom surface opposite the top surface; at least one aperture extending through the top surface to a depth within the first pedal retaining member, the at least one aperture extending from the front surface to the rear surface; and at least one void within the front surface of the first pedal retaining member, the at least one void being open to the at least one aperture without extending through to the rear surface, wherein portions of the front surface on opposing sides of the at least one void are substantially coplanar.
Tube support system for conduit and tubing bundle spacer therefor
Tubing bundle supports comprise body parts clamped around split rotatable sleeves. In one embodiment, spring mounted peripheral shoes and rotatable tubing bundle support sleeves allow metal tubes and tubing bundles to be routed inside a conduit in spaced apart positions and resistant to vibration. In another embodiment, split pillow block sections are clamped around a split rotatable sleeve. In an embodiment, the split pillow block support is held to a strut channel by a strut channel nut.
