A device for receiving a suction hose that connects a nozzle of a vacuuming device to a central unit of the vacuuming device. The device is has at least one holding device that can be arranged on the central unit of the vacuuming device, wherein the suction hose is able to be fitted in the at least one holding device such that the hose can be accommodated in a secure and stable manner. This advantageously makes it possible for the user of the vacuuming device to be able to adapt the length of the suction hose as required to the task currently to be performed. Here, the unused part of the suction hose is stored in a particularly secure and stable manner in the device or in cavities of the device that can be formed between the at least one holding device and a rear part. In a second aspect, the invention relates to a vacuuming device having a central unit that is connected to a suction hose having a nozzle.

A ribbon cord containment and identifying adaptor can be adaptively anchored or fixed to or removed from a ribbon type cord or ribbon cord of a set of earphones by hand via an anchor slot of the adaptor. The anchor slot can have a frame or structure that has an entrapment chamber and a path leading to a cord entrapment chamber where the entrapment chamber is slanted with respect to the path leading to the entrapment chamber. The structure of the entrapment chamber and path help anchor the adaptor on the ribbon type cord segment to prevent inadvertent dislodgement of the adaptor from the cord segment. The structure of the anchor slot is rigid and serves to firmly grip or compress cord segments positioned between gapped-apart opposing sidewalls within the anchor slot. When a cord containment adaptor is anchored via the anchor slot, ribbon type cord segments can be gripped into slots in a manner that helps prevent the adopter from dislodging from the ribbon cord. When positioned on cord segments, the adaptors can serve as identifying objects or adaptors.

An apparatus for winding at least one cable includes a cover, a top portion attached to the cover, and a base attached to the top portion. A surface of the base is configured to be attached to a stationary object. The top portion includes a sloped surface configured to receive the at least one cable, such that the at least one cable remains detangled and is externally invisible when is fully wound around the sloped surface.

Skipping rope with two handles connected by a rope. A handle is provided with winding devices for winding and unwinding the rope. The rope is movable in the handle between a position for adjusting the length of the skipping rope and a position for using the skipping rope. The handle is equipped with blocking devices for blocking and unblocking the rope.

The invention is directed to an organizing device for cables comprising a spool, wherein the spool comprises: a barrel; an upper flange affixed to a first side of the barrel; and a lower flange affixed to a second side of the barrel, wherein the barrel is elliptical and wherein the upper flange and the lower flange each extend outwardly beyond the barrel.

A holder for straps includes a base including a body portion and a tail portion, and a waist where the body portion and the tail portion join. The base defines first and second horizontally opposed recesses and a wrap area disposed therebetween. First embodiments of the holder include pegs disposed on opposing sides of the wrap area. The pegs can engage with S-hooks, D rings, snap hooks, carabiners and the like. Second embodiments of the holder include a base defining slots from edges of the body portion and disposed on opposing sides of the wrap area. The slots can engage with J-hooks, T-hooks, U-hooks, and the like. After securing the hook thereof, each strap is wrapped around the base through first and second recesses. Straps can be secured by disposing a loop such as a loop of bungee cord or a tie about the waist and tightening the cord or tie.

A method and device for adjusting the unstored length of tubing directed to improving the use of infusion sets that deliver fluids to a user. The device includes a storage module and other features for adjusting, storing and securing the length of the tubing. The method of adjusting the length of the tubing to a desired length typically comprises removably attaching the tubing to the adjuster, adjusting the tubing by wrapping the tubing around a hub or post of the adjuster, and fixing the length of the unstored tubing by attaching the tubing to a securing device such as a friction structure or fastener.

A packed sensor line array system includes sensors mounted outboard of cable packs wrapped around a central mandrel. The system may have multiple rows (layers) of the sensors and cable packs, surrounded by a cannister. Cable retainers may be used to retain cable ends near sensors, to keep the cable ends out of the way of subsequent winding operations. The winding may be done in situ, with the mandrel mounted to a rotatable chuck that is rotated to wind the individual cable packs sequentially around the mandrel, with positioning of the sensors outboard of the windings occurring between the winding operations. A positionable indexing tool may be coupled to and moved along the mandrel, to define a space along the mandrel for each cable pack winding.

Cable-management systems can hold a speaker device and can hold at least a portion of an electrical cable of the speaker device. In some embodiments, a cable-management system includes a housing having an upper portion and a lower portion separated by at least one upward-facing surface configured to vertically support the speaker device. The upward-facing surface can be a ledge or a wall that stretches all the way across a cylindrical cable management system. The upper portion can hold the speaker device while the lower portion holds the electrical cable. The electrical cable can be wrapped around a post of the housing such that the cable is hidden inside the cable management system.

A stackable spool cable manager assembly is disclosed which comprises a plurality of like cable manager spools. The cable manager spools comprise a locking mechanism such that the cable manager spools can be stacked and such that when locked together a cable support arm of each the cable manager spools is offset from the others. A magnet is also provided, for example for securing to a bottom ne of a stack of cable manager spools such that they can be secured to a metal tray or the like.
