A binding device binds a material strip reel on which a contact material strip is wound. The binding device includes a frame, a tape supply unit installed on the frame for supplying an adhesive tape, a first damper and a second damper mounted on the frame for clamping the adhesive tape, and a first roller and a second roller installed on the frame. The first roller and the second roller push and paste the adhesive tape between the first damper and the second damper onto a pair of opposite sides of the material strip reel.

A wiring structure (10) includes: a fixed member (14); a movable member (12) which moves rectilinearly with respect to the fixed member (14); a wire material (16) which connects the movable member (12) and the fixed member (14); a movable guide (18) over which the wire material (16) is stretched and which can move rectilinearly with respect to the fixed member (14); and a movement mechanism (20) which causes the movable guide (18) to move, in conjunction with the rectilinear movement of the movable member (12), rectilinearly in a direction in which the loosening or tightening of the wire material (16) caused by the rectilinear movement of the movable member (12) is offset.

A cable routing apparatus, for supporting an electric charging cable, includes a mounting plate and a pulley-bracket assembly, which is pivotally attachable to the mounting plate. The pulley-bracket assembly includes a pulley support member having a pulley support plate and at least one pulley support arm extending downwardly from the support plate. The pulley-bracket assembly further includes a pulley wheel for supporting part of the cable thereon, and a pulley axle extending through a central hub of the pulley wheel. A housing may be provided for covering the pulley-bracket member, and parts of the pulley support member may, optionally, be integrated into the housing. A kit including two of the described cable routing apparatus along with an intermediate pulley bracket and other components, as well as a method of installing the kit in a garage to provide a cable routing system are also described.

A system for managing charging, the charging management system is provided. The system comprises a charging cord management device, a charging cord connector, a device, a first charging cord, and a second charging cord. The charging cord management device is configured with the second charging cord. The charging cord management device is configured to control the second charging cord and the charging cord connector in a direction of the earth gravitational field from a first altitude to a second altitude without user interaction and wherein the first altitude is different from the second altitude. The charging cord connector is configured to be in contact with an apparatus with a height above ground level.

A threadlike adhesive sticking apparatus of the present invention is an adhesive sticking apparatus that presses a threadlike adhesive wound around a winding body against an object while feeding out the threadlike adhesive, and includes an assist mechanism configured to apply an external force in a feeding direction to the threadlike adhesive fed out from the winding body, and a pressing unit configured to press the threadlike adhesive fed out from the winding body against the object.
