  • Patent number: 7946883
    Abstract: An electrified wall panel in a modular furniture environment includes a plurality of multi-port electrical distribution blocks diversely located throughout the panel. Certain ones of the multi-port electrical distribution blocks are fixed to wall panel frame members and other ones of the multi-port electrical distribution blocks are free of the wall panel. A plurality of jumper cables, each having connectors at opposite cable ends are adapted to mate with any one of the multi-port electrical distribution block ports. The cables electrically interconnect the distribution blocks to form one complete circuit. There are a plurality of electrical receptacles, each having an electrical connector near one end which are electrically coupled to a port of a corresponding multi-port electrical distribution block. The system is assembled by fixing a jumper mounting bracket to a jumper cable near one end of the jumper cable. The jumper mounting bracket is attached to a support member.

  • Patent number: 7008248
    Abstract: A power distribution jumper assembly includes a relatively fixed rigid support member, a multi conductor cable for supplying electrical energy to power utilization equipment and an electrical connector at one cable end. There is a jumper bracket mechanically coupled to the support member which mechanically supports the cable end and corresponding connector. A multiport electrical power distribution block receives the electrical connector. An electrical component is electrically connected to the power distribution block. The jumper mounting bracket extends from the support member and is mechanically connected to and rigidly supports the electrical component, connector and cable end.

  • Patent number: 6939153
    Abstract: A power distribution block assembly has a plurality of electrical receptacles and a multi-port electrical power distribution block with at least three like longitudinally aligned connector receiving ports near one block end and at least three like longitudinally aligned additional connector receiving ports near a block end opposite the one block end. An intermediate one of one the ports is adapted to receive a power supply connector and a pair of the ports spanning the intermediate port are adapted to receiving corresponding electrical receptacles to thereby position the power supply connector intermediate and sandwiched between the receptacles. An intermediate one of the additional ports is also adapted to receive a jumper cable connector. A pair of the additional ports spanning the intermediate additional port, are each adapted to receive a corresponding additional electrical receptacle so that the jumper cable connector is located intermediate and sandwiched between the additional receptacles.
