A cable gland includes a gland nut defining a longitudinal axis. The gland nut includes an interior wall defining a gland nut opening. A bushing is disposed within the gland nut. The bushing defines a bushing opening configured to receive a cable therein. A compression limiting assembly includes a compression limiter moveably disposed at least partially within the gland nut. A spring is disposed between the compression limiter and the bushing. A body defines a body opening configured to receive at least a portion of the cable therein. The body is configured to couple to the gland nut. Upon coupling of the gland nut to the body, the gland nut moves along the longitudinal axis compressing the bushing between the gland nut and the compression limiting assembly and around the cable.

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.

A holding device and a method for mounting such a holding device on a cable having a braid situated externally at least in certain regions. The holding device includes a base element (4) with a base (9) for fastening the base element (4) to a housing, and a bracing element (5) for operative connection to the base element (4), and also a crimp element (6) with an outer crimp sleeve (10), and, arranged therein, an inner supporting sleeve (11). In a state in which the cable (2) is mounted in the holding device (1), the braid (3) is arranged between the crimp sleeve (10) and the supporting sleeve (11), and the shield braid (4) is crimped between the crimp sleeve (10) and the supporting sleeve (11).

A cable gland assembly includes a gland nut defining a longitudinal axis. The gland nut includes an interior wall defining a gland nut opening and the interior wall includes a stop. A bushing is disposed within the gland nut opening proximate the stop. The bushing defines a bushing opening configured to receive a cable therein. A sleeve is moveably disposed within the gland nut opening adjacent the bushing. The cable gland assembly also includes a body defining a body opening configured to receive at least a portion of the cable therein. The body is configured to couple to the gland nut, and upon tightening of the gland nut to the body, the gland nut moves along the longitudinal axis compressing the bushing between the gland nut and the sleeve and around the cable. When the sleeve engages with the stop, further compression of the bushing is restricted.

A cable clamping assembly includes a cable clamp and a supporting base. The cable clamp includes a protruding base and two bendable arms. The protruding base has an opening disposed on the center of a top surface. The two bendable arms respectively include a plurality of first latching components and a plurality of second latching components. The supporting base includes a concave portion. A guiding slope and a positioning portion are disposed within the concave portion. When the cable clamp clamps a cable, the two bendable arms respectively slide downwardly along two ends of the guiding slope to surround the cable, until one of the two bendable arms is stopped by the positioning portion. The protruding base is deformed in response to a pressing force, so that the bendable arms tie the cable closely, and the plurality of first latching components lock with the plurality of second latching components.

A cable gland and methods for earthing, grounding, bonding, and electromagnetic capability with armored, metal-clad, and metallic-sheathed cable types. The cable gland comprises a gland body, a plurality of extensions, an elastomer seal, a compression member configured to rotate the plurality of extensions towards to the elastomer seal, and an earthing insert mounted in the gland body configured to electrically connect a cable to a neutral and/or grounded conductor. The cable gland is configured to provide an air-tight seal between the exterior of the cable and the elastomer seal through rotation of the plurality of extension upon the elastomer seal. The cable gland may include an o-ring and nut to secure the cable gland to a planar body. The earthing insert comprises a grounding spring in electrical communication with a metallic portion of the cable and a neutral and/or grounded conductor.

An adaptive seal for a cable gland including a body including a compression portion defining a distal surface and an insertion portion defining a proximal surface, the compression portion having an outer diameter greater than an outer diameter of the insertion portion, a plurality of insertion apertures in the proximal surface, a plurality of tubes extending from the distal surface, each having a closed end and each at least partially tapering in diameter from the distal end of the body to the closed end, and a plurality of channels, each defined between one of the insertion apertures of the body and one of the closed ends of a respective one of the tubes, wherein the body and the plurality of tubes are integrally formed a single piece of elastic material.

A cable gland is provided which has an elongate body having an entrance end and a fitting end with a passage extending therebetween. A locating member having a flange which operatively abuts the entrance end of the body is provided. A clamping assembly is securable to the entrance end of the body through a coupler, and includes a tubular member having a clamping end and a free end with a bore extending between them. The clamping end provides a clamping surface complementary to the flange of the locating member such that cable armour can be secured between the clamping surface and the flange, both of which extend in a radial direction, generally normal to the axes of the passage and the bore.

A cable gland for an armored cable comprising at least an exposed portion of the armor, comprising a clamping ring and a compression ring intended to be tightened or rotatably engaged to each other, said cable gland comprises a current conducting circular member, intended to surround the exposed portion of the armor of said cable and being attached at one end to the compression ring and at another end to the clamping ring, so that when the clamping ring and a compression ring are tightened or rotatably engaged to each other, the circular member is collapsed against an exposed portion of the armor of the cable.

An insert for a clamping device for clamping an armour layer of a cable in a cable gland is disclosed. The insert comprises a body (54) adapted to be received in a cable gland and defining an aperture (60) for receiving an inner part of a cable. A clamping portion (62) is adapted to engage an armour layer of the cable to clamp the armour layer between the clamping portion and a clamping member of the clamping device when the clamping member is arranged outwardly of the clamping portion. At least part of the clamping portion is displaceable inwards as a result of engagement of the clamping portion with the armour layer clamped between the clamping portion and the clamping member.
