HELICAL JUMPER CONNECTOR

A helical jumper connector includes a helical support member configured to support a wire. The helical support member includes a first leg having a first helical winding and a second leg having a second helical winding that defines a second axial opening. The first axial opening and the second axial opening are coaxial with the wire when the first helical winding and the second helical winding are wrapped around the wire and cooperatively engage with one another to support the wire. A jumper casting is configured to receive the helical support member. The helical support member and the jumper casting are electrically conductive such that the helical jumper connector forms an electrically conductive pathway to carry electrical current from the wire. A method of making a helical jumper connector assembly includes applying a compression force to a helical jumper connector comprising a helical support member received in a jumper casting.

Cable-organizing circuit board and an electronic device incorporating the same

A cable-organizing circuit board includes a board body and a protruding hanger arm. The board body has a circuit-layout section and a non-circuit-layout section that are connected to each other. The protruding hanger arm is disposed at the non-circuit-layout section of the board body, and is adapted to be permit a segment of the transmission cable to pass thereunder. The segment of the transmission cable is disposed beneath a bottom surface of the protruding hanger arm, and remaining segments of the transmission cable are disposed above a top surface of the board body opposite to the bottom surface of the protruding hanger arm when the segment of the transmission cable passes under the protruding hanger arm.

SECUREMENT MEMBER FOR UTILITY STRANDS
20240283235 · 2024-08-22 ·

A securement member for connecting strands includes a main body. A first aperture, a second aperture, and a third aperture extend through the main body. A fastener is coupled to the main body and is positioned adjacent to the first aperture. A strap is selectively received within the first aperture, the second aperture, and the third aperture in order to secure the strands to the main body. The fastener engages the strap to secure the strap relative to the main body.
