Abstract: A cable coupler includes a body having a first end, a second end, and first and second passageways sized and shaped to receive a cable, with each passageway including a tapered portion. A wedge assembly is disposed in each tapered portion to secure a cable to the body. A clip assembly is attached to the body adjacent the tapered portion of each of the passageways and is shiftable between a closed position in which the clip assembly is positioned to prevent an adjacent one of the wedge assemblies from exiting the corresponding passageway and an open position in which the adjacent wedge assembly is insertable into the tapered portion of the corresponding passageway.

Abstract: A twin cable mine roof bolt includes a barrel having a first end, a generally dome-shaped second end, and an outer surface, a pair of angled and narrowing bores extending through the barrel, with each bore sized to receive a cable, a pair of wedges sized for placement in each of the bores to secure the cables, and a protrusion extending from the first end of the barrel and sized for insertion into a socket wrench.
