System and method for welding system cable management
Embodiments of the present disclosure include a cable management system with a housing comprising a first shell and a second shell configured to couple together about welding system cabling such that a portion of the welding system cabling is contained by the housing. The first and second shells form openings at ends of the housing such that the welding system cabling is capable of extending through the openings and such that edges of the openings enclose a perimeter of the welding system cabling when the first and second shells are coupled together about the welding system cabling. A cradle receives a weld cable of the welding system cabling. A cable clamp engages the weld cable and cooperates with the cradle to restrict movement of the weld cable when the weld cable is disposed in the cradle and the cable clamp is engaged.
System and method for rapidly changing an accessory for an amusement attraction
A quick disconnect system for an accessory electrically coupled to a component of an amusement attraction includes a multi-part electrical enclosure including a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a first opening on the first side, and a relief pass through. The multi-part electrical enclosure is configured to: have a first electrical cable coupled to the accessory pass into the multi-part electrical enclosure via the first opening and have a second electrical cable pass into the second side of the multi-part electrical enclosure to enable the first and second cables to be coupled together within the multi-part electrical enclosure. The relief pass through is configured to provide strain relief to both the first electrical cable and the second electrical cable and to prevent disconnection of the accessory from the multi-part electrical enclosure.
Cable Pass Through System
A cable pass through system for running one or more cables through a roof and a ceiling can comprise a cap having an inner surface and an outer surface having a thickness which can create a shell. The cap can cover and attach to a base. The seals can be attached to the base and the cap forming a seal around the cable. A gasket can be placed between the base and the roof creating a seal between the roof and the base. A backing plate can be placed on the ceiling and is removably attached to the base by one or more fasteners. The cap and the base can further comprise a recess for the one or more seals and a seal can be placed in the recess in the base wherein when pushed together the two seals create a watertight seal against the cable.
Junction box assemblies with sequentially elevated openings
An electric junction box assembly configured to help preserve the structural integrity of a bend in a tube is provided. The electric junction box assembly includes a junction box having at least one tube opening. The tube opening extends from an outer surface of the junction box into the inner space of the junction box. The tube opening is configured to hold the bend of the tube. The tube opening includes an outer opening and at least one inner opening. The outer opening is formed on an outer wall of the junction box and the inner opening is formed on an inner wall of the junction box. The inner opening is elevated with respect to the outer opening. Accordingly, the electric junction box assembly distributes the load of the weight of a tube and wire assembly so as to preserve the integrity of the tube and wire assembly.
ELECTRICAL WIRE COVER
An electrical wire cover that aims to ease assembly by addressing an electrical wire getting caught between two half covers. The electrical wire cover is a member that has a tube shape when a first half cover that has a half tube shape and a second half cover that has a half tube shape are assembled, and is configured to house an electrical wire. The first half cover has a first inner matching surface, and the second half cover has a second inner matching surface that abuts against the first inner matching surface when the second half cover is attached to the first half cover. The first half cover has an electrical wire restricting protrusion that protrudes toward the second half cover relative to the first inner matching surface.
ENCLOSURE WITH GROMMETLESS STRAIN RELIEF
Enclosures with grommetless strain relief are provided, each including a base and a cover. The base has a bottom and four sidewalls arranged to provide an open box-like structure. A first of the sidewalls of the base is configured with a wire routing slot at its perimeter. The cover has a top and four sidewalls arranged to provide an open box-like structure configured to couple with the base, so as to provide a strain relief for an electrical wire passing through the wire routing slot. The wire is pressed against a length of the first sidewall of the base by a first sidewall of the cover. The enclosure may include other features, such as rounded edges in the wire routing path, a wire guide and/or strap to inhibit wire movement between the first sidewalls, and/or one or more locking mechanisms configured to secure the cover to the base.
Slotted grommet
Embodiments of a slotted grommet configured to manage a cable in an electrical cavity are provided. The slotted grommet includes a body structure having a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a peripheral surface extending between the first and second surfaces. A first slot is formed in the first surface and extends through the body structure towards the second surface. The first slot defines a chamber having sidewalls in the body structure configured to hold a loop of the cable. The first slot has a first width that is less than a cross-sectional dimension of the cable such that the cable is pinched within the chamber between the first sidewalls to prevent vibration-related chafing of the cable.
System and method for rapidly changing an accessory for an amusement attraction
A quick disconnect system for an accessory electrically coupled to a component of an amusement attraction includes a multi-part electrical enclosure including a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a first opening on the first side, and a relief pass through. The multi-part electrical enclosure is configured to: have a first electrical cable coupled to the accessory pass into the multi-part electrical enclosure via the first opening and have a second electrical cable pass into the second side of the multi-part electrical enclosure to enable the first and second cables to be coupled together within the multi-part electrical enclosure. The relief pass through is configured to provide strain relief to both the first electrical cable and the second electrical cable and to prevent disconnection of the accessory from the multi-part electrical enclosure.
DRIVING ARRANGEMENT, PARTICULARLY FOR DRIVING THE VEHICLE
Driving arrangement (1), particularly for driving a vehicle, comprising an electric machine, a housing (2), in which the electric machine is arranged, the housing (2) having an opening (9), through which a supply cable (30) for the electric machine extends, and a sealing device (11) that comprises a carrier (13) having a through-hole (17a) and being mounted within the opening (9) and a sealing sleeve (14) arranged within the through-hole (17a), wherein the supply cable (30) extends through the sealing sleeve (14)
wherein the carrier (13) comprises a plate portion (25) that covers an edge (28) of the opening (9), wherein the through-hole (17a) is surrounded by a cylindrical surface (23) of the carrier (13) that extends from the plate portion (25) towards the inside of the housing (2), wherein the sealing sleeve (14) comprises one or multiple circumferential sealing projections (22) that abut the cylindrical surface (23).
Elbow screw joint system
An elbow screw joint system for screw-connecting and rerouting elongate shaped parts includes a guiding body, an insert and a cover. The insert has a guiding section rotatably arranged at least partially inside the guiding body. The guiding body has a guiding recess and an outlet recess. The guiding recess has a guiding axis and extends along the guiding axis from a receiving side to an opposite head side. The outlet recess has an outlet axis and extends from an outlet side, along the outlet axis, to the guiding recess. Also, the guiding axis and the outlet axis are at an angle relative to one another. The guiding section has a screw thread at an upper end region which is associated with the head side of the guiding body, and the cover is screw-connected, from the head side, to the screw thread of the guiding section.
