A conduit-balancer link system may be used to control the path of conduit in a robotic welding process. The conduit-balancer link system includes a first member having a leg portion with an interior surface and an outer portion attachable to a balancing member. The conduit-balancer link system also includes a second member having a generally u-shaped outer profile with two parallel extending members. A conduit is routed between the interior surface of the first member and an inner portion of the second member. Fasteners are used to secure the second member to the first member with the conduit routed between.

ANTI-KINKING DEVICE
20210262590 · 2021-08-26 · ·

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 guide and detection device with cable guide

A cable guide is configured to be detachably attached to a detection device having a cable lead-out portion from which a cable extends in a predetermined direction. The cable guide includes a guide portion configured to change a lead-out direction of the cable with respect to the cable lead-out portion, and an attachment portion configured to attach the guide portion to the detection device.

A cable management arm basket clip, comprising: a latch to secure the cable management arm basket clip to a cable management arm basket; a connection to pivotally connect the cable management arm basket clip to the cable management arm basket; and guards disposed on both sides of the cable management arm basket clip to allow for passage of cables and to protect cables.

Sliding bracket

A bracket for extensibly mounting a medical or surgical apparatus, and more particularly a humidification apparatus, to a support structure. The bracket comprises a base member securable to the support structure, a mounting member to which the humidification apparatus may be secured, and an extension mechanism moveably engaging the base member and the mounting member. The mounting member is reversibly extensible from a retracted position substantially proximate the base member to an extended position projecting beyond the base member. Also disclosed are a humidification apparatus and a support stand each comprising the extensible bracket.

Support structure for supporting a cable

A support structure is provided for supporting a cable. The support structure includes a body portion extending circumferentially about an axis. The body portion includes a first wall, a second wall extending substantially parallel to the first wall, and a third wall coupled between the first wall and the second wall. The first wall, the second wall, and the third wall define an opening extending along a circumferential length of the body portion. The body portion receives the cable within the opening. A retention structure is coupled to the first wall and projects from the first wall towards the second wall. The retention structure extends substantially parallel to the third wall. The retention structure retains the cable within the opening.

Insulated pipe support

An insulated pipe support includes a base, a thermal insulation block, a cradle plate, and a mounting strap. The base has two side rails each having a strap mounting flange with a strap passage therein. The insulation block is configured to fit upon the base between the side rails. The cradle plate has main portion and two vertical end portions having a curved cradle which conforms to the exterior of an insulated pipe. The mounting strap includes two oppositely disposed mounting ends which are configured to extend through the strap passage of the lugs. Six threaded studs with matching nuts extend from the base, through the insulation block and cradle plate to secure the position of each.

Retaining device for a flexible line

A retaining device for a flexible line, comprising a first member (100), a second member (200) moveably attachable to the first member, and a guiding means (110, 210) positioned on either or both of the first member (100) and the second member (200). The first member has a first retaining portion (400) positioned on a first retaining surface (100a) of the first member. The second member has a second retaining portion (400) positioned on a second retaining surface (200a) of the second member. The first retaining portion and the second retaining portion are each configured to retain a flexible line, and the guiding means (110, 210) is configured to determine the curvature of the flexible line to inhibit kinking of the flexible line when retained by the first retaining portion (400) and the second retaining portion (400).

SADDLE PIPE SUPPORT
20200278050 · 2020-09-03 ·

A pipe support is coupled to an elongated channel for receiving and supporting a pipe. The channel includes a base and a pair of spaced apart sidewalls extending from the base to a bottom plate. A flange projects downwardly from each top plate towards the base and defines a slot therebetween. The pipe support includes a body portion extending axially between opposite ends and having an inner surface and an outer surface. The body portion includes a generally arcuate bottom floor and a pair of spaced apart sidewalls projecting generally upwardly from the bottom floor. A pair of axially spaced apart channel locks projects downwardly from the outer surface of the body portion adjacent each of the spaced apart sidewalls of the channel. A retainer strap selectively connects to and between the channel locks for coupling the pipe support to the channel.
