  • Patent number: 8353719
    Abstract: A solid molded cord connection protector for robust protection of joined cord connectors is disclosed, which protects cord connections and cord connectors from being crushed by large external forces and/or high pressure. The cord connection protector includes a bottom and top robust solid mold, each mold custom-designed to conform to a substantially bottom or top side of joined portions of two cords joined together by cord connectors. A hinge connects the top and bottom molds via their respective back sides; and a fastener fastens the top and bottom molds together at their front sides. The cord connection protector completely encloses the solid molds firmly around the entire surface of the joined portions of the two cords, thereby providing robust protection of the joined cord connectors and robust protection of the cord connection. In some embodiments, the cord connection protector is capable of preventing separation and/or crushing of the cord connectors.
