Patent number: 11960136Abstract: A cable restraint located in a splice enclosure to restrain a cable includes a tray having a bottom side with an upward facing surface. The cable restraint also includes a restraint bridge removably attached to the tray. The restraint bridge includes a central portion having a surface configured to cooperate with the tab feature to inhibit relative motion between the restraint bridge and the tray in a direction non-perpendicular to an axis of the cable. A restraint clip is removably attached to the restraint bridge and includes a restraint post attached to the body portion configured to secure a strength member of the cable to the restraint clip. The restraint clip further includes a column attached to the body portion configured to inhibit relative motion between the restraint clip and the restraint bridge in the direction non-perpendicular to the axis of the cable.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: PREFORMED LINE PRODUCTS CO.Inventors: Christopher Grubish, Cameron Joseph Clines

Patent number: 11962138Abstract: A support device for supporting a cable includes a central support portion having a first side and a second side. The support device also includes a first leg portion extending between a first end and a second end, the first leg portion having a first helical winding. The support device also includes a second leg portion extending between a third end and a fourth end, the second leg portion having a second helical winding. The support device further includes a hanger portion attached to the central support portion. The hanger portion includes structure that cooperates with an associated attachment structure. The first leg portion is attached to the central support portion and the second leg portion is attached to the central support portion. The first helical winding and the second helical winding are configured to receive the cable.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2019Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: PREFORMED LINE PRODUCTS CO.Inventors: Benjamin Franklin Ciesielczyk, Cameron Joseph Clines, Jacob Jeffrey Palmer, Bruno Maiano

Patent number: 11905015Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle for mounting a clamp to a line includes a body, a first propeller attached to the body, a second propeller attached to the body, and a third propeller attached to the body. The body is between at least one of the first propeller and the second propeller, the first propeller and the third propeller, or the second propeller and the third propeller. A guide is attached to the body and is configured to support the clamp for mounting to the line by flying the unmanned aerial vehicle toward the line. The guide is configured to support the clamp such that an imaginary clamp line between a first jaw of the clamp and a second jaw of the clamp when the clamp is in an arrested position is non-parallel to a plane intersecting the first propeller, the second propeller, and the third propeller.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Preformed Line Products Co.Inventors: Benjamin Franklin Ciesielczyk, Adam Michael Deel, Cameron Joseph Clines, Jacob Jeffrey Palmer, Andrew James Hanneman, Jonathon Randall Olszewski

Publication number: 20230136498Abstract: A closure enclosing and protecting at least one line splice holder. The closure includes a first housing portion enclosing at least a portion of a hollow interior of the closure, the at least one line splice holder being located within the hollow interior. The first housing portion has a portal through which plural lines extend into the hollow interior. The closure includes a second housing portion actuatable with respect to the first housing portion to provide an additional portion of the hollow interior. The additional portion of the hollow interior is a volume to receive additional of the at least one line splice holder. The closure includes a coupling for connecting the second housing portion to the first housing portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Inventors: Benjamin Franklin CIESIELCZYK, Cameron Joseph CLINES, Jacob Jeffrey PALMER

Patent number: 11005250Abstract: A structure for supporting a wire includes a first portion including a body portion, and an alignment portion. The alignment portion defines a first alignment opening through which the alignment portion receives a first fastener. The first alignment opening extends along a first alignment axis between. A second portion defines a second alignment opening, extending along a second alignment axis, through which the second portion receives the first fastener. The second portion is spaced a distance from the body portion to define a wire opening into which the wire is received for support by the structure. The alignment portion is movable relative to the body portion between a first position, in which the first alignment axis and the second alignment axis are coaxial, and a second position, in which the first alignment axis and the second alignment axis are non-coaxial.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2018Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Preformed Line Products Co.Inventors: Benjamin Franklin Ciesielczyk, Adam Michael Deel, Lan-Ping Ling, Cameron Joseph Clines, Jacob Jeffrey Palmer
