Abstract: A grommet closure device for sealing a cable opening in a raised floor, the device comprising: a frame structure defining an aperture; and a sealing member having flexible sealing means attached along its length in cantilever fashion, the sealing member being arranged to span the aperture such that unattached ends of the sealing means can extend away from the sealing member and rest on the frame structure, thereby covering the aperture.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a floor gland for covering an access hole provided in a raised floor structure to allow cabling to pass through the floor structure. A problem with this arrangement is that cooling air passing underneath the raised floor structure can escape through the access hole. A floor gland is provided to fit into the access hole, the floor gland having sealing means that are secured to a sealing member mounted across the open area of the floor gland at a distance from the edges of the access hole such that the sealing means extend out from the sealing member towards the edges, thereby effectively sealing the access hole to prevent the passage of cooling air.
Abstract: A fastener for fixing of a component to a body, such as a mounting surface or post, and which is designed to act as a one-piece component, comprises a head portion and a tail portion joined together by a longitudinally-extending body having a smaller cross-sectional area than both the head portion and the tail portion, and a deformable shoulder extending outwardly from the body to the tail portion or head portion, wherein the head portion has a greater cross-sectional area than the tail portion and the tail portion is non-circular in cross-section.
