An interlocking pipe support includes a first interlocking bracket configured to interlock with a second interlocking bracket, wherein the first and second interlocking brackets are moveable between a first interlocking position in which they are configured to partially surround an exterior of a pipe, and a second interlocking position in which they impose a clamping load on the exterior of the pipe.

A clamp includes a first member, a second member, and a fastener. The first member has a first connecting portion and a first supporting portion. The second member has a second connecting portion and a second supporting portion. The first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are twisted clockwise or counterclockwise such that a first clamping portion of the first connecting portion and a second clamping portion of the second connecting portion are tilted to the right or to the left with respect to a front-back direction when seen from above. A spiral hanger is mounted on a support wire by tightening the first member and the second member by the fastener in a state where a support wire is passed through between the first supporting portion and the second supporting portion and a spiral hanger is passed between the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion.

A pipe support system is disclosed for protecting industrial piping from fatigue and failure caused by vibrational and thermal forces. The inventive slide bearing pipe support system can accommodate thermal expansion and/or contraction of the pipe under high magnitude thermal loads while resisting movement of the pipe under low magnitude vibratory loads. The frictional force required to resist vibratory movement but to permit thermal movement is dependent upon the torque load provided by bolts connecting upper, lower and central slide bearing plates. The torque on these bolts is specified to generate a specific frictional force between the contact layers of the slide bearing plates, which can resist vibration of the piping under a vibratory load but permit lateral/transverse movement of the pipe under a thermal load. The inventive support system is useful for a variety of vibrational and thermal loads, and with a variety of industrial pipe sizes.

A pipe clamp includes two clamp parts, each clamp part having a curved pipe clamping portion, and an anchoring portion formed at or near a first end of each pipe clamping portion to anchor the pipe clamp to a profile element. The anchoring portion is formed as a leg with a hammerhead. A flange is formed at a second end of each pipe clamping portion. The flanges of the clamp parts are adapted to be positioned opposite each other. A tightening member is associated with the clamp flanges for tightening them together. The curved pipe clamping portion has a varying stiffness along the curve length between the first end and the second end of the pipe clamping portion, where on average the stiffness of the pipe clamping portion decreases or increases from the first end towards the second end.

A cradle for supporting conduit extending between a truck and articulating trailer. The cradle includes a radially curved and open ended body which is resiliently supported upon an adjustable vertical support member for permitting lay-in receipt of the harness. A mounting assembly for the vertical support member positions the same atop a platform extending between the tractor and trailer and, in one non-limiting variant, is constructed of two parallel plate members with three or more compression/extension spring combinations.

An anchor for lightning protection systems include a base and pad that extend over a sufficient area and a sufficient bearing length to hold in shear and in tension against the weight, shear force, and moment of cables, points, and other components of a lightning protection systems. The mounting anchor is non-penetrating, and adheres to a vertical surface almost immediately without requiring damage to structures, long term support over days waiting for cure, and works in overhang situations as well. An integrated clip may be constructed with the base from sheet material. Adhesion of the base to a cover material on a wall or parapet may be promptly followed by snapping cable into clips formed monolithically with the base.

A removable trap for lavatory sinks is provided to enable new technologies to be incorporated into just the water trap portion of the sink trap to maximize the performance of the trap in infection control, while at the same time preserving the trap performance features demanded by major building codes. While a traditional P-trap requires the removal of the entire trap for cleaning or replacement, the removable trap presented in this application allows for easy removal of just the U-bend portion of the trap by releasing latch clamps. The U-bend containing the water is the most vulnerable to attack to cleaning chemicals as well as the most effective locus of innovation in materials and methods employed to reduce infectious bacteria forming biofilms within the lavatory trap.
