Clamp for mounting cables to a supporting element
A clamp for mounting cables to a supporting element includes a jumper having a “C”-shaped cross-section with two opposite wings interconnected by a core, the two wings and the core being provided with respective pass-through holes. At least one of those pass-through holes is provided in combination with an insert or an adapter having a threaded pass-through hole.
ASSEMBLY COMPRISING A CABLE AND A SUPPORT FOR SAID CABLE
The present disclosure relates to an assembly having a cable support and a cable inserted in the support, the latter may include: at least one base, made of a rigid material, having at least one receptacle provided with a longitudinal axis and, of which the inner dimension D.sub.int is given, and at least one strap, made of a material more flexible than that of the base, having at least two lips on the one hand arranged opposite one another to define a slot for the passage of a cable between the lips and on the other hand, shaped to define an orifice, wherein the cable is inserted, this orifice, provided with a longitudinal axis, communicating with the slot along this longitudinal axis of the orifice, the lips having, together, an outer dimension D.sub.ext equal or greater than the inner dimension of the receptacle.
HOSE RETAINER
A hose retainer configured to support individual hoses from a plurality of hoses comprises a first apparatus and a second apparatus. The first apparatus may comprise a first conduit for receiving a first hose from the plurality of hoses, and the second apparatus may comprise a second conduit for receiving a second hose from the plurality of hoses. The first conduit may extend in a first plane and the second conduit may extend in a second plane. The first apparatus may further comprise a first plurality of protrusions radially spaced about a first central axis and extend from a first surface. The second apparatus may further comprise a second plurality of protrusion radially spaced apart about a second central axis and extend from a second surface. The first plurality of protrusions and the second plurality of protrusions may interlock.
Modular retainer assembly
A modular retainer assembly is presented herein. The modular retainer assembly, includes a first retainer module defining a flexible first retaining finger and a second retainer module that is distinct from and joined to the first retaining module. The second retainer module defines a flexible second retaining finger. When the first and second retainer modules are mated together, the first retaining finger is arranged opposite the second retaining finger. The first and second retaining fingers are configured to receive and retain an elongate article, such as a wire cable, between them.
PIPE CLAMP
A pipe clamp includes a first clamp body, a second clamp body, an engaging member, a linking engagement member, a driver, at least one stop portion and a moving stopper. The moving stopper is used to control the first and second clamp bodies into a locked or swingable status. In the locked status, the second clamp body swings to a swing angle to drive the driver to link and pivot the linking engagement member, so that the serrated portion of the linking engagement member and the gear rack of the engaging member are engaged with each other in a one-way limit manner, and the first and second clamp bodies can swing in one direction only. The pipe clamp has the advantages of clamping a pipe stably, saving efforts, and improving the convenience of use.
Interlocking cable cleat
An interlocking cable cleat secures cables to a ladder rack. The interlocking cable cleat is formed from a first cable cleat half and a second cable cleat half. Each cable cleat half includes an outer surface, an inner surface, and at least one mounting hole extending from the outer surface to the inner surface. Semi-circular keys extend from the inner surface of each cable cleat half around the mounting holes in the cable cleat halves defining slots in the remainder of each mounting hole. Each slot receives one of the semi-circular keys from an opposing inverted cable cleat half to interlock the first cable cleat half to the second cable cleat half.
Coupling for electrical metallic tubing
A coupling may include a main body having a first circumferential end and a second circumferential end. The coupling may further include a first tab extending from the first circumferential end and a second tab extending from the second circumferential end, the first tab including a first opening to receive a fastener and the second tab including a second opening to receive the fastener. The coupling may further include a central tab extending from the first circumferential end, the central tab received within a central tab opening of the second circumferential end. In some embodiments, an electrical metallic tubing (EMT) may extend within a central cavity defined by a tubular shape of the main body. The coupling may further include a set screw extending through the first and second tabs for engagement with the EMT.
CABLE KEEPER
A cable retention assembly comprising a housing defining a cable aperture extending axially through the housing and a retention aperture extending from an outside surface of the housing through the housing and opening into the cable aperture. A clamping mechanism may be disposed within the retention aperture. A hook may have an insert and a lip. The hook may be coupled to the housing via the clamping mechanism. The cable retention assembly according to the present invention can be used with all known cables including, but not limited to, USB cables.
Holding Device To Hold A Tube Or Cable In Engagement With A Bracket
A holding device to hold a tube or cable in engagement with a bracket is provided with a structure having a seat, which is a through seat along an axis and is defined by a substantially C-shaped edge so as to have a radial opening; the structure further has a slit, which extends along a radial direction up to said seat so as to allow the bracket, in use, to be inserted into the slit and engage the seat; the holding device is further provided with a wing, which is movable between an open position, in which the seat can be accessed through the opening and a closed configuration, in which the opening is closed by the wing.
MODULAR RETAINER ASSEMBLY
A modular retainer assembly is presented herein. The modular retainer assembly, includes a first retainer module defining a flexible first retaining finger and a second retainer module that is distinct from and joined to the first retaining module. The second retainer module defines a flexible second retaining finger. When the first and second retainer modules are mated together, the first retaining finger is arranged opposite the second retaining finger. The first and second retaining fingers are configured to receive and retain an elongate article, such as a wire cable, between them.
