Device for guiding a flex extending from an appliance

A device for guiding a Flex Extending from an Appliance The present application relates to a device 1 for guiding a flex 8 of a garment care appliance that, during use of the appliance 6, hangs downwardly from said appliance. The device comprises a guide tube 4 having a passage therethrough to slideably receive the flex of the garment care appliance, and an attachment part 5 for attachment of the guide tube to a support such that the guide tube is positioned in proximity to, or below, a height at which the appliance is being used. A lower part of the flex that hangs through and below the guide tube maintains an upper part of the flex, extending between the appliance and the guide tube, substantially straight or taut during movement of the appliance towards and away from the device.

LIFTING DEVICE WITH CABLE MANAGEMENT COMPONENT
20220232967 · 2022-07-28 ·

A lifting device with a cable management is provided. The lifting device includes: an outer pipe, an actuation mechanism, a linkage member, a cable, and a cable management component. The actuation mechanism is accommodated in the outer pipe and has a motor and a screw rod. The linkage member is accommodated in the outer pipe and mutually screw-fitted with the screw rod to operate, and moves relative to the outer pipe. The cable has a spiral coiled cable unit. A shaft core line in parallel with the screw rod is defined by the spiral coiled cable unit. The cable management component is disposed in the outer pipe and in parallel to the shaft core line. The spiral coiled cable unit is reeled on the cable management component. Accordingly, the cable may be stably positioned and the cable may be prevented from rubbing or being tangled with the screw rod.

Charging station for electric vehicles

The application relates to a charging station for electric vehicles, comprising a cable holding device with a cable guided over a first deflection unit and a second deflection unit having two ends for holding two charging cables. The first end of the rope is connected to a first charging cable of the charging station and the further end of the rope is connected to a further charging cable of the charging station. At least one weight element is operatively connected to the rope in such a way that the charging cables in an unused condition of the charging cables are held so that there is a distance between a ground surface and each part of the charging cables.

Fliptop integrated latch

An integrated latching mechanism includes a slider button extending along a first direction, curved elastic arms that extend from the slider button in a second direction and then curve back in an direction opposite thereto, a locking part contiguous with the slider button and extending away from the slider button and the elastic arms in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction. In response to ends of the elastic arms being held at fixed positions and an external force urging the slider button in a direction opposite to the third direction, the locking part moves in the same direction, and the urging of the slider button distorts the elastic arms such that upon removal of the external force, the elastic arms move the slider button and the locking part in the third direction. The elastic arms, slider button, and locking part form a single piece of elastic material.

ROTATABLE DOCKING STATION WITH CABLE HOLD AND RELEASE MECHANISM
20230268698 · 2023-08-24 · ·

A swivel mount assembly for rotational mounting of an electronic device to a mounting structure includes a rotatable body inserted, in part, into an opening in the mounting structure and rotatable about an axis extending through the mounting structure opening. A plate part above the mounting structure has an opening that opens into the mounting structure opening. A sidewall is joined at one end to the plate part and has a side aperture formed therein. A roller is disposed in the opening in the plate part and directs a cable extending through the opening in the mounting structure to further pass through the side aperture. A hold/release mechanism, disposed above the plate part, holds the cable and prevents its movement when the hold/release mechanism is in a first setting, and releases the cable and permits its movement when the hold/release mechanism is in a second setting.

WIRE HARNESS AND WIRE HARNESS ROUTING APPARATUS

The wire harness 11 disclosed by the present specification includes: a sheet-shaped base member 12; and a plurality of covered electric wires W fixed side by side along the base member 12, in which the transverse cross-sectional area of at least one of the plurality of covered electric wires W is different from the transverse cross-sectional area of another covered electric wire W, and the thickness of the covered electric wire W is substantially the same as the thickness of the covered electric wire W adjacent thereto.

Feed device and power supply system

A feed device for supplying electrical power and/or data to an electrical load, which is movable in at least one travel direction relative to the feed device, via cables. An electrical line cable carried along by the electrical load can be connected or is connected to the feed device, and to a power supply system for supplying the movable electrical load. The line cable can be output or retrieved from a reservoir, which is carried along by the load, in accordance with a distance between the reservoir and the feed device. The feed device has at least one connection part, which is rotatable about at least one pivot axis, for the line cable. This feed device, as well as a power supply system having such a feed device, provides protective guidance and storage of the line cable, reducing the risk of kinking or excessive bending of the line cable when moving the electrical load.
