Patent number: 12119634Abstract: A clamp for suspending a wire includes a housing having an inner support surface. The wire is disposed between the inner support surface and a keeper. The clamp further includes a fastening unit, including a first fastener and a second fastener attachable to the first fastener. The housing defines an opening extending in a direction along which the wire is received within the housing. After the second fastener is attached to the first fastener, the fastening unit is not removable from the housing. The fastening unit is movable, within the opening, between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the fastening unit cooperates with the keeper to decrease a distance between the inner support surface and the keeper. In the second position, the fastening unit does not cooperate with the keeper to decrease the distance.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2023Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Assignee: PREFORMED LINE PRODUCTS CO.Inventors: Jacob Jeffrey Palmer, Benjamin Franklin Ciesielczyk, Cameron Clines

Publication number: 20240186782Abstract: A clamp for suspending a wire is provided. The clamp includes a base having a support surface that defines a first boundary of a wire receiving region. The clamp includes a keeper having an elastomer lining that defines a second boundary of the wire receiving region. The clamp includes means for providing force to at least one of the keeper or the base such that, when the wire is in the receiving region, the elastomer lining is pressed against the wire to provide a static retaining force, as a function of the force, on the wire to retain the wire relative to the clamp and permits sliding of the wire relative to the clamp when a pulling force on the wire exceeds the static retaining force and remains within a designed slip force range.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2022Publication date: June 6, 2024Inventors: Derek Alexander LENARDOS, Cameron Joseph CLINES, Benjamin Franklin CIESIELCZYK, Jacob Jeffrey PALMER
