Abstract: A cable tray system including two or more cable tray sections comprising a first side rail and a second side rail arranged substantially parallel to one another and a floor extending between. The tray system also includes one or more flex-wires for joining the cable tray sections, where the flex-wires can be U— or loop-shaped. Upon exerting tension on the flex-wires, the first and second cable tray sections can move away from one another from a first position to a second position. In addition, the tray system includes a fastening device that removably locks the tray system into the second position.

Abstract: A slider bracket assembly is provided having one or more slider brackets, one or more strap-slider brackets, a main cable tray, and a tray section, wherein the one or more slider brackets couple the one or more strap-slider brackets to both the main cable tray and the tray section. Methods for installing a slider bracket assembly comprise coupling slider brackets to a first strap-slider bracket and a second strap-slider bracket, coupling the first and second strap-slider brackets to a tray section to form a tray section assembly, and then coupling the tray assembly to a main cable tray using the first and second strap-slider brackets.

Abstract: A cable conveyance assembly having a primary tray section and a splice, each with a horizontal floor and two vertical sidewalls. Each of the sidewalls of the primary tray section includes a ridge on an exterior surface located proximate the floor of the primary tray section and a lip located distally from the floor extending outwardly and downwardly from each sidewall forming a notch spaced outwardly from the exterior surface of each sidewall. The sidewalls of the splice include a glide channel formed on an interior surface of each sidewall proximate the floor of the splice so that splice may be slideably engaged with the primary tray section such that the ridge of the sidewalls of the primary tray section is aligned with and mates with the glide channel on each sidewall of the splice.

Abstract: A J-Hook cable support contains a cable-receiving saddle having two ends, with a stem and a tip extending from each end of the saddle. The saddle and the area between the two ends of the saddle form a cable-receiving area. The cable support includes a wire retainer, which is capable of sliding through an opening in the tip of the cable support. By sliding the wire retainer through the slot, the end user may selectively open and close the cable-receiving area. The J-Hook cable support can be part of an assembly comprising one or a plurality of cable supports and a mounting member. The mounting member comprises a vertical member and a horizontal member. The cable supports are fastened to the vertical member. The horizontal member extends at an angle from a distal end of the vertical member and may be used to fasten the mounting member to a structural support.
