  • Publication number: 20230204088
    Abstract: A strain relief device for at least one supply line. The strain relief device can be or is disposed on a line-guiding apparatus for guiding the at least one supply line and has at least one main body, which comprises at least one coupling means for the fastening of the at least one supply line to said coupling means and thus to the strain relief device in such a way that strain is relieved. At least one preferably flexible coupling element is provided, which can be disposed so as to peripherally surround the coupling means and the line to be fixed on the coupling means and which surrounds the line together with the coupling means in the form of a loop. There are fastening means on the main body for fastening the main body to the strain relief device in such a way that tensile force is absorbed. A guide element having a guide region for the coupling element is provided adjacent to the at least one coupling means.

  • Patent number: 11374348
    Abstract: A modular system for plug connector modules for producing plug connector units, and to at least one first housing frame for receiving a plurality of plug connector modules within the housing frame. Each housing frame has two parallel longitudinal side walls, which define the frame width of the housing frame, and perpendicularly thereto two parallel narrow side walls, which define the frame height of the housing frame. According to the invention: i) the frame width is an integer multiple of the frame height, optionally plus joint play; ii) the longitudinal side walls and the narrow side walls have connection elements for form-fitting connection, wherein in each case a connection element of a longitudinal side wall corresponds to a connection element of a narrow side wall; and iii) on each longitudinal side wall a plurality of connection elements are arranged at a grid distance which corresponds to the frame height, optionally plus joint play, along the frame width.

  • Publication number: 20150167889
    Abstract: The invention relates to a transport and mounting frame for at least one supply line or line-guiding device, comprising at least one or more supply lines, wherein the frame comprises a retaining device for retaining the line guide in a spatially defined position, and wherein the frame preferably comprises a docking device for the positionally defined docking of the frame to a machine under releasable fixing to said machine, to which machine the line-guiding device is to be fastened as part of the machine. In accordance with the invention, the retaining device is attached to the frame in such a way that the position of the retaining device relative to the frame can be changed, so that the line guide can be arranged in several positions, and fastening means are provided for fixing the retaining device and thus the line-guiding device in the several positions.
