  • Patent number: 7523897
    Abstract: The fixing device can be used to fix a wire (10) to a support member having a planar surface provided with at least two openings. The device is made of elastic sheet-metal and includes a cut-out body which is bent into a U-shape and includes a web (33) and two flanges (34) whose ends are T-shaped. At least one arm of the T-shape at each end is adapted to bear on the surface of the support member that is opposite the planar surface at the edge of an opening.

  • Publication number: 20080308686
    Abstract: A connecting part includes a base (2) fixable to a support and to a perforated plate (4) for fixing a structure or another connecting part. The plate (4) includes a first perforation and at least one second perforation (12) in the form of a longitudinal optionally curved hole, which is oriented in such a way that it is substantially inclined with respect to the tangent of a circle whose center is the point of the first perforation and which passes by the point of the second perforation (12).

  • Patent number: 7387287
    Abstract: A fixing device which can be fixed to a surface such as a ceiling and receive a perforated section comprises a plate for fixing it to the surface and a support for receiving the perforated section. The support has a wall substantially perpendicular to the plate and at least two claws with the same orientation which cooperate with corresponding perforations of the perforated section. The wall includes a precut locking lug which can be bent into another perforation and cooperate with an edge of that perforation to immobilize the perforated section against movement in translation.

  • Publication number: 20050063775
    Abstract: The invention concerns a connection splice plate for connecting two portions of a wire cable tray consisting of wires of two different types, lengthwise wires and crosswise wires, said two portions being connected and assembled via their abutting crosswise wires: the splice plate comprises a U-shaped body (31) with two wings (32, 34) and a web (33), said wings (32, 34) including each at least two indentations (32A, 34A) with parallel edges, the indentations (32A) of one wing (32) facing the indentations (34A) of the other wing (34), the mutually parallel edges of one indentation being parallel to the mutually parallel edges of the other indentation, one of the edges of at least one of the opposite indentations bearing a lug (35A called locking lug, said locking lugs being adapted to be folded, towards the inside of the U-shape of the body (31), on each of said crosswise abutting wires.

  • Patent number: 6082690
    Abstract: A bracket for cable tray type conduit carriers constituted by three principal perpendicular walls forming a trihedron, a dorsal wall, a fixing wall for fixing conduit carriers and a lateral wall. The bracket is mounted to a U-shaped rail via a rod passing through a perforation in one side member of the rail, a hole in the lateral wall, bearing on a projection in the dorsal wall and finally passing through a facing perforation of a second side member of the rail. The fixing wall is provided with a system of notches out across the edge between the fixing wall and the lateral wall, the notches dividing the fixing wall into separate islets and being surmounted by tongues provided in the fixing wall over a fraction of the length of the notches. Notches constitute housings for longitudinal wires of wire mesh cable trays, the tongues being able to be bent down onto the wires.
