Hanger for mounting cables
A cable hanger includes: a base panel having opposed ends; a pair of arms, each of the arms attached to a respective end of the base panel and having a free end; a pair of locking projections, each of the locking projections attached to a respective free end of the arms; and a pair of gripping members, each gripping member attached to a respective arm, each gripping member having opposed ends, wherein one of the ends of each gripping member is fixed to the arms and the other of the ends of each gripping member is fixed to the arm or to the base panel. The arms and locking projections are configured to spread apart to enable insertion of a cable between the arms, wherein the gripping projections engage and grip the cable, and wherein the locking projections are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the supporting structure.
LEG RETENTION CLIP
Provided is a leg retention clip for a leg of a tripod and a tripod assembly that includes the leg retention clip. The leg retention clip can be inserted inside a hollow-out inside of a first leg section with slots/holes which output protruding edges of the leg retention clip. When a second leg section is fitted over the first leg section, the protruding edges of the leg retention clip can stop movement of the second leg section and help lock the second leg section in place with respect to the first leg section. If the leg of the tripod includes more than two leg sections, the leg can be provided with multiple leg retention clips.

Clip for securing an element to another element and use of a two-part clip of this type
A two-piece clip for securing an element to another element includes a first component having a head and a shaft extending from the head along a shaft axis having a point. At least one protrusion is provided on the shaft, having a contact surface facing the head, and the head having a contact surface facing the protrusion. The clip further includes a second component having a support surface facing the contact surface of the head, and a contact surface facing the protrusion. The contact surface of the head is supported on the support surface of the second component.
Clamping element, method for assembling a clamping element, method for clamping a clamping element and system of an element and a clamping element
Disclosed is a clamping element to clamp to a portion of an element. The clamping element has a housing with a receiving space, the housing having an opening that connects the outside of the housing with the receiving space, a clip arranged inside the housing, the clip having a first leg and a second leg arranged opposite each other, a bridge connecting the first leg and the second leg, the receiving space at least partially being arranged between the first leg and the second leg, wherein a force needs to be applied to move the first leg away from the second leg and in a pre-assembly state of the clip, which describes the position that the elements of the clip have prior to the portion of the element that is to be clamped having been introduced into the receiving space.
FASTENER CLIP
An improved fastener clip for a side curtain airbag is provided. The fastener clip includes a head portion and a body portion having first and second expansion legs. During installation, the fastener clip is manually inserted through aligned openings in an airbag attachment member and a body panel. When a bolt is threaded into the fastener clip, the head portion engages an upper surface of the airbag attachment member and the expansion legs flex laterally outward and engage an underside of the body panel. Spring tabs extend from the head portion and absorb vibrations to provide a secure attachment over the life of the fastener clip.
Metal retention clip
A retention clip is configured to securely connect a first component to a second component. The retention clip includes a first frame connected to an opposed second frame by a central beam. An interior of the clip is defined between the first and second frames. Each of the first and second frames includes lateral legs that fold inwardly at upper bends, thereby forming flanges that are disposed within the interior. The flanges on respective sides of the clip are integrally connected by a bridging member, and the flanges further include distal ends that extend below a bottom edge of the bridging member. The clip further includes a flexible wing for securing the clip within the interior of a panel opening. Some embodiments of a retention clip include protrusions that extend inwardly from the bridging members.
Systems and Methods for a Strut Clip
A clip is provided for supporting a cylindrical object on a strut channel. The clip can include a clip body extending along a clip axis and can have a first end with a notch. The notch can be sized to receive a cylindrical object during installation of the clip to the strut channel when the clip body is positioned around the cylindrical object with the clip axis obliquely angled relative to a longitudinal axis of the cylindrical object. The clip can also have a first set of arms extending from the first end of the clip body adapted to engage a first reentrant lip of a strut channel when the cylindrical object is received in the notch and a second set of arms extending from a second end of the clip body adapted to be resiliently flexible for engagement with a second reentrant lip of the strut channel.
ERGONOMIC FASTENING CLIP
A fastening clip for mounting a component part, such as an airbag, to a support structure, includes: a body portion, extending between an upper end region and a lower end region along a longitudinal axis, including at least one elastically deflectable retaining member, projecting laterally from the lower end region of the body portion, so as to fixingly engage when inserted into an orifice of the support structure; a head portion, provided at the upper end region of the body portion, including a rectangularly shaped plate member, having a flat upper surface extending in a transverse plane relative to the longitudinal axis, and two opposing resilient spring members extending transversely away from opposing first and second edges of the plate member and folded towards the lower end region of the body portion.
Serviceable edge clip assembly
An edge clip assembly for attachment of a component, and, more specifically, an edge clip assembly which is serviceable and self-locking, includes a clip body and a spacer provided within the clip body, and further includes an interlock securing the spacer in a final position in which the clip body can be engaged with the component to hold the component under tension. A ramp disposed on the spacer forms a service tool gap, and a tool can be wedged into the tool gap to disengage the interlock.
