  • Patent number: 5357874
    Abstract: A channel or housing for electrical cord and wire management in a table leg assembly is disclosed. The channel or housing includes a stationary insert member and a snap-in insert member, both of which are installed interiorly of a pair of legs of a computer table or the like. The stationary insert member is initially installed between the table legs by means of hex head screws or the like, having spacer members installed thereon for receiving spacer slots on the snap-in insert member. The snap-in insert member is of shorter overall length than the stationary insert member, and the spacer members are so positioned that an opening is created at both the upper and lower ends of the snap-in insert. Thus electrical wiring or cords may be retained within the table leg assembly between the snap-in insert and the stationary insert and easily passed through the channel between the two inserts.
