  • Patent number: 11267726
    Abstract: A grease trap for separating waste from wastewater includes a tank having an outer wall, bottom and open top. An inlet invert in the tank receives incoming wastewater, and an outlet invert removes water from the tank. The tank has a cover on the open top, and the cover has a hatch. A barrier spans a diameter of the open top below the cover and has an opening vertically below the hatch. A divider divides the tank into an upper chamber and a lower chamber and has a hole for allowing FOG into the upper chamber from the lower chamber, the hole being colinearly aligned with the hatch and the opening in the barrier.

  • Patent number: 6396989
    Abstract: A cable retainer assembly is adapted for segregating, bundling, and routing fiber optic cable inside a cable management cabinet. The retainer assembly includes a mounting track for being located inside the cabinet, and having first and second opposing end edges, and first and second opposing side edges. An arcuate retainer clip is carried on the mounting track between its opposing end edges and side edges. The retainer clip defines a bend-radius control surface adapted for controlling the degree of bend experienced by fiber optic cable held by the retainer clip. The retainer clip has a base, and at least one outwardly-extending cable retainer arm formed with the base. The cable retainer arm is spaced-apart from the bend-radius control surface to retain a bundled plurality of fiber optic cable inside the cabinet.

  • Patent number: 6175079
    Abstract: A fiber optic cable management system includes a cabinet defined by cabinet walls and having an interior mounting surface for carrying cable management components adapted for managing fiber optic cable within the cabinet. The mounting surface is spaced-apart from and cooperates with an adjacent one of the cabinet walls to define a door-receiving compartment inside the cabinet between the mounting surface and the adjacent wall. A cable access door is pivotably attached to the cabinet, and is adapted for pivoting movement between a closed position and an open position, and for sliding movement from the open position to a hidden position inside the cabinet and within the door-receiving compartment. Attachment rails are provided for pivotably attaching the access door to the cabinet, and for permitting sliding movement of the access door from the open position to the hidden position.
