  • Patent number: 6274813
    Abstract: A tubular sheathing channel assembly for housing bunched cables. The assembly includes a longitudinally slit sheathing wall of elastic plastic material and includes a pair of projections which are molded on along the slits (2) and which are formed with an L-shaped cross-section, and which are embraced by C-shaped clamp members. Clamp walls (13) of the clamp member (5) are guided on the projections (4) such that they may be moved in a longitudinal direction and are equipped with fastening portions (6) in order to anchor the sheathing wall (1) on a carrier plate (21). The projections (3) preferably are equipped with an interlockable groove and tongue (10) and (11) on the inside walls (9).

  • Patent number: 5605424
    Abstract: A two-part fastening system composed of an anchoring part (1) which is pressed into a fastening body (4) of hard-elastic synthetic material. The anchoring part (1) consists of a relatively soft synthetic material and is provided with a plurality of parallel ribs extending perpendicularly from a carrier plate 2. The fastening body (4) includes a pair of clamping walls (5) having several rows of pointed projections (9) spaced one over another. The ribs of the anchoring part are pressed into engagement with the pointed projections so that a high strength connection between the parts is generated.

  • Patent number: 4478381
    Abstract: An elastic pipe clamp having a lower yoke, a fastener foot or the like for anchoring the lower yoke to a fixed surface and a cooperating upper yoke, the pipe being securely held between the yokes when they are locked together in a positive manner. A hinge-band pivotally connects one end of the upper yoke to one end of the lower yoke and mutually engaging locking hooks are provided on the opposite ends of the yoke from the hinge band for locking the yokes together. At least two (2) beaks on the hinged end of one of the yokes curve inwardly with respect to and over the hinge-band, the beaks being adjacent to the outer edges of the yoke with their outer arcs being tangent to the inside wall of the yoke. Cooperating recesses are provided in the other yoke that are open on their outer sides and have upper and lower walls with a radius curvature similar to the curvature of the beaks, whereby the beaks substantially fill the recesses when the clamp is closed.
