Extensible Conduit For The Communication Of Negative Pressure And Fluids
A conduit includes a first end configured to be fluidly coupled to a wound site, and a second end configured to be fluidly coupled to a canister. The conduit additionally includes a central lumen extending between the first end and the second end. The conduit further includes a male interlocking member on a first side of the conduit and a female interlocking member on a second side of the conduit. Both the first side and the second side extend along a length of the conduit between the first end and the second end. The female interlocking member is configured to receive the male interlocking member.
JOINT-USE BRACKET FOR INSTALLING COMMUNICATION LINES ON UTILITY POLE
A joint-use bracket (JUB) for use for installing multiple cables associated with communication lines onto a joint-use section of a utility pole is disclosed. The JUB comprises: a curved plate having a generally rectangular shape elongated in a longitudinal direction and curved along a lateral direction, the curved plate formed to have multiple attachment holes therethrough and have multiple slots laterally formed on the front surface; multiple platforms, each platform contiguously formed on the front surface of the curved plate and having multiple receiving holes; multiple blocks configured to engage with the platforms, respectively, each block having multiple joining holes; and multiple joining fasteners configured to be inserted through the joining holes and the receiving holes, to fasten the block to the platform to clamp the cable that is placed laterally between the block and the platform, thereby to hold the cable securely.
Tube clamp
A tube holder includes a tube clamp having a housing and a clamping mechanism. The housing has a tube entry along a major surface thereof. A first tube passageway extends from the tube entry into the housing, and a tube receiving channel is coupled to the first tube passageway. The clamping mechanism comprises a lever handle user operable to transition from a first position to a second position. A gate is coupled to the lever handle, and a tube pinch is coupled to the lever handle. When a tube is peripherally inserted into the tube receiving channel and the lever handle of the clamping mechanism is in the second position, the gate prevents the tube from exiting the housing via the first tube passageway, and the tube pinch pinches the tube so as to prevent a flow of a fluid through the tube.
Support clip
A support clip can be configured to support objects relative to a cable support system having wire members. A support system engagement portion can have first, second, and third attachments, which can be removably attachable to the wire members of the cable support system. The first attachment can define a first partly cylindrical pocket with a first entrance, the second attachment can define a second partly cylindrical pocket with a second entrance, and the third attachment can define a hook that defines a third elongate pocket and a third entrance. The first and second attachments can be configured to receive respective wire members to attach the support clip to the cable support system in a first orientation and the second and third attachments can be configured to receive respective wire members to attach the support clip to the cable support system in a second orientation.
TUBE ORGANIZER ASSEMBLY
An organizer assembly including a belt and a ribbon. The ribbon has a first clamp member, a second clamp member, and a first carrier portion. The first clamp member is configured to receive a conduit or a support to fix the conduit or the support relative to the ribbon. The belt includes an elongated body that is slidably received in the first carrier portion. The organizer assembly may include one or more adapters that are received in a respective clamp member of the ribbon and configured to receive a conduit or a support to fix the conduit or support relative to the ribbon.
Pipe clamp
A method and apparatus for installing pipes. The apparatus is a clamp for hanging or supporting pipe. The clamp comprises a base and a seat for receiving a pipe. The seat comprises at least two load bearing members adapted to receive the pipe. The clamp further comprises at least two side support members extending upward from the base at an oblique angle with respect to the base. The two support members each comprise an upwardly extending arm for receiving the pipe and wherein each upwardly extending arm forms an aperture for receiving a fastener to secure the pipe within the clamp. The clamp preferably comprises an integral, one-piece unit. Methods of making a pipe clamp and installing a pipe also are disclosed.
CABLE BUSHING
A cable bushing having a two-part, frame-shaped housing having lower and upper housing parts forming a passage opening in the installed position. An elastic sealing element is inserted into the lower and upper housing parts, respectively. The two sealing elements close the passage opening in the installed position, forming adjacent tubular cable bushing channels. The corresponding cable bushing channel is formed by semi-tubular recesses in the corresponding sealing element. Each sealing element has parallel longitudinal walls, separated from one another by longitudinal grooves, respectively. The innermost longitudinal wall is closed. For forming the corresponding cable bushing channel, the other longitudinal walls have semi-tubular recesses with a decreasing radius from the outermost to the second innermost longitudinal wall. One sealing element has transverse ridges between adjacent cable bushing channels orthogonally to the longitudinal walls. The other sealing element has recesses complementary to the ridges in the longitudinal walls.
PIPE CLIP
A pipe clip operable to be fixed to a mounting position, typically a joist, comprising a pipe receiving portion and a mounting portion connected by a base portion, the base portion configured to allow the pipe clip to be seated on the mounting position.
Support collar for elongated cables, tubes or the like
A support collar for elongated bodies includes a frame and retaining arms extending from the frame toward the interior the frame. A rib is defined at least partly around the attachment edge of the retaining arms to the frame and along at least a portion of the retaining arms.
MULTI-LINE SUSPENDING BRACKET
A bracket for suspending multiple line segments at an elevated location is disclosed. The bracket has a back portion to engage against a supporting surface at the elevated location. The back portion has a left segment and a right segment. The bracket has at least one of a left arm extending from the left segment or a right arm extending from the right segment. The bracket has at least one of a first left seat extending from the left arm, a second left seat extending from the left arm, a first right seat extending from the right arm, or a second right seat extending from the right arm. At least one of the multiple line segments are supported by at least one of the first left seat, the second left seat, the first right seat, or the second right seat.
