The invention relates to a device for the pressure-tight feedthrough of a line comprising a deformable jacket through a feedthrough in a wall which separates a first pressure area from a second pressure area with a sleeve surrounding the line in the area of the feedthrough, which has at least two spaced annular constrictions, notches, grooves or the like created by forming, between which the material of the jacket is compressed by forming into an integral ring seal acting between the jacket and the sleeve, where the sleeve is being pressure-tightly connected or being connectable to the wall around the feedthrough, at least from one side. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for the manufacture of a corresponding device.

A component for attaching a cable to a housing member includes an attachment section having an attachment element and a cable clamping section integrally connected to the attachment section. The cable clamping section has a tubular shape and forms a cable tunnel. The cable clamping section has a clamping tongue that is deflectable into the cable tunnel.

A press fitting for an electrical conduit includes a fitting body and a press connector in a press-connection section of the fitting body to allow press-fit connection to a conduit. A conduit retainer in the press fitting releasably grips and removably retains the electrical conduit in the fitting body before the press-connection section is deformed radially inward during the press connection process. A socket in the press fitting has a cross-sectional diameter that tapers in a direction away from the press-connection section.

A cable leadthrough device for leading a cable through an opening in a wall, having a housing that can be fastened in the area of the opening, wherein the cable can be led through the housing along a leadthrough channel parallel to a leadthrough axis, and also having a strain relief device—with at least one clamping element for clamping a cable led through the leadthrough channel, wherein the clamping element is mounted so as to be movable on the housing, by a guide device, along a guide axis inclined in relation to the leadthrough axis, between a clamping position, in which it radially narrows the leadthrough channel, and a release position, in which it releases the leadthrough channel, and a force application system being provided for generating a driving force with a force component that acts along the guide axis and pushes the clamping element towards its clamping position.

A push-in electrical connector for connecting one or more electrical cables at a knockout of an electrical junction box or panel. The electrical connector includes a substantially tubular connector body with a sidewall, a flange, an inner body portion extending from the flange to an inner end, and an outer body portion extending from the flange to an outer end. The inner body portion includes two flexible gripper jaws and an inner seat. The outer body portion includes two compressible arms and an outer seat. The electrical connector body may include a dividing wall for maintaining separation between electrical cables. The gripper jaws and compressible arms enable secure attachment of one or more cables to an electrical panel or box.

A connecting system for quickly securing a hollow tube to a structure or to another hollow tube using a connector that has a housing with a tapered interior edge that operably engages a locking element positioned therein. When the tube is inserted into the locking element, the locking element holds and locks the tube in place in the connector. A guide ring may be provided within the connector to facilitate proper alignment of the tube within the connector and provide electrical continuity throughout the entire tube connecting system. One or more bearings may be provided as part of the locking element to facilitate initial tube insertion and then compression locking of the tube by the locking element. The connector can include a variety of structure engaging portions to allow the connector to be operably secured to a variety of structures such as electrical junction boxes, electrical conduits, tubes, armored cables, metal clad cables, flexible metal cables and the like.

A strain relief arrangement (4) for a connecting cable (2) has a threaded pin (12), clamping tongues (13), a union nut (3), an enlarged diameter (10, 11) on the threaded pin (12), an extension (15), and a passage bore (25) for the connecting cable (2). By screwing of the union nut (3) onto the threaded pin (12), the clamping tongues (13) move inward and press against the connecting cable (2) for strain relief. The extension (15) is non-round, and an opening (6) of a carrier element (5) is complementary (7, 8) to the extension (15). An enlarged region (16) of the extension (15) has a circumferential groove (20) adjacent to the enlarged diameter (10, 11). The extension (15) can be introduced into the opening (6) of the carrier element (5) and can be fastened by rotation in the opening (6).

A connecting system for quickly securing a hollow tube to a structure or to another hollow tube using a connector that has a housing with a tapered interior edge that operably engages a locking element positioned therein. When the tube is inserted into the locking element, the locking element holds and locks the tube in place in the connector. A guide ring may be provided within the connector to facilitate proper alignment of the tube within the connector and provide electrical continuity throughout the entire tube connecting system. One or more bearings may be provided as part of the locking element to facilitate initial tube insertion and then compression locking of the tube by the locking element. The connector can include a variety of structure engaging portions to allow the connector to be operably secured to a variety of structures such as electrical junction boxes, electrical conduits, tubes, armored cables, metal clad cables, flexible metal cables and the like.

A cable clamping apparatus (2) is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a housing (4) defining a first aperture (6) for a cable, an actuator member (24), and clamping members (22). Movement of the clamping members relative to the actuator member in an axial direction of a cable extending through the apparatus causes sliding movement of the clamping members relative to the actuator member between a first condition, in which the cable can move in the axial direction relative to the clamping members, and a one second condition, in which the cable is clamped between the clamping members. A plurality of the clamping members overlap in the axial direction.

An electrical fitting adapted for insertion from the interior of an electrical box in order to provide a secure means for attaching an electrical cable to the box. The electrical insider fitting includes a connector body having a leading end, a trailing end, and a base flange on the trailing end. A leading face is included on the base flange and a seat on the connector body adjacent the leading face of the base flange. A snap ring resides in the seat and includes one or more outward extending locking tangs. The leading end of the connector body includes an internal bore with an internal snap ring secured therein. The internal snap ring includes one or more cable retaining tangs for engaging and securing an electrical cable to the leading end of the connector body.
