SECURING DEVICE FOR A FERRULE CLAMP
A securing device for securing a wing nut type ferrule clamp installed on a ferrule, the securing device has a top and a hollow body that extends downwards from a periphery of the top. The hollow body has a front face and a rear face, the front face has an elongated hole configured to receive one end of the wing nut. A first cutout in the front face extends from the bottom of the hollow body and below the elongated hole. The first cutout has a width more than the width of the ferrule clamp. The rear face of the hollow body has a second cutout to receive an opposite end of the wing nut. Two flanges extend from opposite edges of the second cutout, wherein each of the two flanges has a hole. A shackle can pass through the two holes and limits the movement of the wing nut.
ANTI-KINKING DEVICE
Kinking of tubing can be prevented by use of a device comprising a first clamp, a second clamp, a first rod and a second rod. The first clamp and the second clamp carry the first rod and the second rod to form a frame, and the flexible tubing is secured to the first clamp and the second clamp. The device can be easily moved and adjusted by a user. The device can be attached to any location along the tubing and allow the tubing to bend past 90 degrees without kinking. Multiple devices can be used in series to route tubing in desired route without it kinking
CABLE BUSHING
A cable bushing having a two-part, frame-shaped housing having lower and upper housing parts forming a passage opening in the installed position. An elastic sealing element is inserted into the lower and upper housing parts, respectively. The two sealing elements close the passage opening in the installed position, forming adjacent tubular cable bushing channels. The corresponding cable bushing channel is formed by semi-tubular recesses in the corresponding sealing element. Each sealing element has parallel longitudinal walls, separated from one another by longitudinal grooves, respectively. The innermost longitudinal wall is closed. For forming the corresponding cable bushing channel, the other longitudinal walls have semi-tubular recesses with a decreasing radius from the outermost to the second innermost longitudinal wall. One sealing element has transverse ridges between adjacent cable bushing channels orthogonally to the longitudinal walls. The other sealing element has recesses complementary to the ridges in the longitudinal walls.

Method and Device for Positioning Components on a Cable
A device and method of positioning a component on a cable. The method includes: moving a collet into position on the component; engaging the component with the collet; moving the collet with the component positioned thereon into alignment with an end of the cable; securing the collet to the end of the cable; moving the component from the collet to the cable; and removing the collet from the end of the cable.
CIRCULAR ROLLER CLAMP ASSEMBLY
A circular roller clamp assembly includes a semi-circular housing configured to receive a portion of an IV tube, a motor and a motor arm coupled to the motor. A roller is coupled to the roller arm, the roller movably received by a guide groove disposed in the semi-circular housing. A flow rate of fluid flowing through the IV tube is regulated based on roller impingement of the IV tube against a tube channel in the guide groove via circumferential movement of the roller along the guide groove. IV sets with circular roller clamp assemblies and methods of operating circular roller clamp assemblies are also provided.
Thermal expansion slide with cable clamp
A cable management system configured to account for and accommodate physical movement of the cables being managed. The cable management system includes an elastic element, such as a spring, to accommodate for the anticipated expansion and/or contraction movements of the cables being managed. The cable management system may be applicable for vertical cable installation projects that are installed in outdoor applications.
Systems and methods for a clamp
A clamp for supporting an electrical conductor on a structure and providing electrical continuity between the electrical conductor and the structure is provided. The clamp can include a mounting member with a through-hole and a strap, that can be configured to extend around the structure, coupled on one end to a first side of the mounting member and having a free end removably coupled to a second side of the mounting member. The clamp can include a clamping member with a through-hole and a main bolt extending through the through-holes of the mounting member and the clamping member. The main bolt can have a footer configured to contact the structure, which can be movable between a first configuration in which the footer is nested within a pocket of the mounting member and a second configuration in which at least a portion of the footer is positioned outside of the pocket.
Cable management system and workstation system
A cable management system for a worktop has a cable support and at least one support mechanism comprising a base body, a first lever and a second lever. The base body is elongated between first and second ends along a major axis and includes respective pivot and fixation points for the first and second levers. The first lever is at a proximal end pivotally supported in the first pivot point, comprises at least a first retaining portion for receiving the cable support, and is fixable at the first fixation point. The second lever is at a proximal end pivotally supportable in the second pivot point, comprises at least one second retaining portion for receiving the cable support, and is fixable at the second fixation point.
PIPE CLAMP ASSEMBLY
A pipe clamp assembly includes a pipe clamp comprising a first clamp segment and a second clamp segment, the first clamp segment defining an inner surface, a first end, and a second end, the second clamp segment defining an inner surface, a first end, and a second end, the inner surfaces of the first and second clamp segments defining a void extending through the pipe clamp; and a support flange coupled to the pipe clamp between the first end of the first clamp segment and the first end of the second clamp segment, the support flange substantially perpendicular to the void and configured to support the pipe clamp assembly on a support surface; wherein the void is configured to align with a pipe opening formed in the support surface.
