Low-PIM angle adapters and cable hanger assemblies
A low passive intermodulation (PIM) angle adapter fabricated from or coated with a polymeric material supports one or more cable support hangers. The low-PIM angle adapter includes a box frame integrally formed with a slot frame, where the box frame supports one or more cable hangers and the slot frame slides onto a support structure to position the angle adapter on the support structure. The low-PIM angle adapter also includes one or more cable tie slots the receive cable ties that secure the angle adapter to the support structure. Various embodiments include differently shaped box frames designed to support one or more cable hangers, such hex, rectangular, trapezoidal and square box frames. The box frames may include multiple receptacles for receiving multiple cable hangers. Cable blocks and brackets also may be used to connect multiple cable hangers to a single receptacle of the low-PIM angle adapter.
Method of Inspecting and Monitoring a Fiber Termination
A system for monitoring the performance of a multi-stranded tensile member where a portion of the strands are concealed within a termination. The invention provides a monitoring system that allows the user to determine when one or more of the strands has degraded to a point of concern. In some embodiments the monitoring system depends on visual inspection and in other embodiments the monitoring system is automated.

Cable blocks and brackets also may be used to connect multiple cable hangers to a single receptacle of the low-PIM angle adapter.
MULTI-STRAND COMPOSITE FIBER TENSIONING CABLE
A cable comprising a plurality of fiber composite tensioning elements (1,2) having different mechanical properties into the same bundle wherein at least one of the tensioning elements (1,2) has a different size and shape from the other tensioning elements (1,2) into the same bundle.
ADAPTER ASSEMBLY FOR AN EXERCISE ROPE
An adapter assembly for releasably connecting an accessory connector to an exercise rope is provided. The assembly comprises a connection part being formed by a first portion and a second portion, each having a bottom end and top end, wherein the first and the second portion of the connection part forms, at its bottom end, a cavity configured to receive an end portion of said rope, and wherein the top end of the connection part is configured to releasably connect the accessory connector.
Rope swinging device
A rope swinging device includes a strap attached to an optional handgrip, and a clamp attached to the strap. The clamp may be attached to a rope that is swung by a user.

Method of Terminating a Stranded Synthetic Filament Cable
An apparatus and method for terminating a multi-stranded, non-parallel cable. An anchor is provided on the end of each strand. A collector is provided to link the anchors and connected strands into a single unit. An alignment fixture is provided to transition the strands from the non-parallel lay within the cable to a parallel path adjacent to the anchors.
Connection structure for wire protective sheath, connection member, wire protective sheath structure, and connection method for wire protective sheath
Provided is a connection structure for connecting a connection member having an attaching portion attachable to an endoscope, to a wire protective sheath into which an endoscope operation wire is configured to be partially inserted for protection. The connection structure includes: a through-hole disposed in the connection member, the wire protective sheath being insertable into the through-hole; and at least one swaging portion located at a different position from that of the attaching portion to partially constitute a peripheral wall of the through-hole. While the wire protective sheath is inserted into the through-hole, the at least one swaging portion is pressed to partially deform the through-hole, thereby connecting the connection member to the wire protective sheath.
Eyelet assembly
The disclosure concerns an eyelet assembly comprising a shank; and an eyelet portion connected to an end of the shank, the eyelet portion comprising a first prong and a second prong, the first prong being longer than the second prong, the first and second prongs being substantially arcuate and forming a substantially circular aperture, the first and second prongs at an axial angle relative to each other to form a slot. The assembly can be used to suspend or hang lighting fixtures such as LED flat panels at desired angles of display.
