ELECTRICAL BOX CABLE CONNECTOR
20220302690 · 2022-09-22 ·

An electrical box assembly having an electrical box and a cable connector is provided. The cable connector includes a mounting bracket cable retaining member and a cable stop. The mounting bracket is secured to or integral with a side wall of the electrical box. The cable retaining member is secured to the mounting bracket and has a cable gripping portion extending into a cable receiving zone of the box. The cable stop extends from a bottom wall of the electrical box into the cable receiving zone. The cable stop permits one or more electrical wires from an electrical cable to pass through the cable stop while blocking sheathing of the electrical cable from passing through the cable stop. The cable gripping portion can engage the electrical cable inserted into the cable receiving zone from an exterior of the electrical box so that the cable retaining member is able to flex while the electrical cable passes into the cable receiving zone imparting little resistance to the forward advancement or movement of the electrical cable within the cable receiving zone, while imparting sufficient resistance to rearward movement of the electrical cable to prevent withdrawal of the electrical cable from the cable receiving zone.

CORRUGATED-TUBE PROTECTIVE MEMBER

A corrugated-tube protective member includes a tubular main body configured to be arranged inside of an end part of a corrugated tube with ridge portions disposed along its longitudinal direction, a rib on an outer circumference of the main body arranged inside the corrugated tube and configured to engage with the ridge portion in a removal direction of the main body from the corrugated tube, and a stopper at an end part of the main body having an outer diameter set to be equal to or larger than that of the ridge portion and configured to be arranged to oppose an end surface of the corrugated tube. An interval between the stopper and the rib is set to be equal to or larger than an interval between engaged surfaces on the ridge portions adjacent to each other, the engaged surface being a surface configured to engage with the rib.

CORRUGATED-TUBE PROTECTIVE MEMBER

A corrugated-tube protective member includes a tubular main body configured to be arranged inside of an end part of a corrugated tube. At least one portion in a circumferential direction of the main body has a dividing portion dividing the main body in the circumferential direction. The dividing portion includes an engagement portion. The engagement portion holds a first dividing surface and a second dividing surface facing each other in circumferential direction of the main body in an engaged state. The first dividing surface includes a first top part protruding toward the second dividing surface side. The second dividing surface includes a second bottom part indented to an opposite side of the first dividing surface and configured to engage with the first top part. The engagement portion includes a locked part formed on the first top part and an elastically deformable locking part formed on the second bottom part.

Wire harness

A wire harness including: a wire member; a protector that houses the wire member; a first corrugated tube that extends externally from an end of the protector and covers an outer circumference of the wire member; a second corrugated tube that is provided at a location that is on an opposite side to the protector with respect to the first corrugated tube and spaced apart from the first corrugated tube, and covers the outer circumference of the wire member; a first fixing member that fixes the wire member to the first corrugated tube and the second corrugated tube; and an exterior cover that covers the outer circumference of the wire member.

Panel mount for mounting signalling and control devices on control panels
11296488 · 2022-04-05 · ·

A panel mount for supporting an electronic device at a hole in a control panel and mountable with access to only the front of the panel. It has a housing that slides into a tubular elastomeric grommet. During installation, an expander segment of the housing slides within a bulging segment of the grommet to expand the grommet inward of the hole and for retaining the components within the hole. A tubular male pre-assembly segment on the exterior surface of the tubular housing permits the housing to be pre-inserted partially into the grommet without expanding any part of the grommet radially outward in preparation for inserting the assembled housing and grommet into the panel hole. A withdrawal lock prevents the housing from sliding axially out of the grommet after installation. The withdrawal lock includes a shoulder formed on the grommet and a shoulder formed on the housing.

Snap fit electrical fitting for ninety degree connection of electrical cables to an electrical box
11271379 · 2022-03-08 · ·

A ninety degree electrical fitting for connecting electrical cable to an electrical box. The ninety degree electrical fitting includes a connector body with a leading end and a trailing end, a snap ring connected to the leading end, and a clip member connected to the trailing end. A leading flange and a box engagement flange on the leading end of the connector body define a means for retaining the snap ring on the connector body. A clip member connected to the connector body provides a means for securing an electrical cable to the trailing end of the fitting. Internal walls on the connector body define an internal passageway having a wide turn radius, to enable wiring leads from an electrical cable to pass easily through the internal passageway of the connector body. The ninety degree snap fit electrical fitting provides good electrical continuity between the outer sheath of an electrical cable, the electrical box, and the fitting.

Adjustable transition coupler
11143343 · 2021-10-12 · ·

An adjustable transition coupler for coupling AC/MC to conduit, having a body with a hollow cylindrical section and an extension member, the cylindrical section having a slot to allow passage of a stop plate. The coupler has an insulator (armor stop) with a hollow bushing at one end for insertion into a cavity of the cylindrical section and a stop plate extending radially outward, the stop plate movable by an adjustment screw between minimum and maximum deflections. The stop plate stops AC/MC from passage into the cylindrical section. The hollow bushing stops the conduit positioned in the hollow cylindrical section from passage into the extension member. The coupler has a strap to secure AC having different outer sheath diameters. Snap tabs on the insulator fit into holes in the body while a rib on the stop plate passes through a notch in the slot to facilitate installation and minimize movement.
