  • Mold and method for manufacturing conduit grommet elements
    Patent number: 5833910
    Abstract: A method for forming a grommet element including two successive steps which are performed on an assembly of conduits, such as cables or wires. The first step consists of sealing the conduit assembly under pressure, while the second step involves molding PVC or another thermoplastic elastomer over the sealed structure to form the grommet. A mold is also provided for carrying out the method. The mold includes a stationary portion and an axially movable portion.

  • Mold for manufacturing conduit grommet elements
    Patent number: 5788994
    Abstract: A mold is provided for forming a grommet element. The mold includes a stationary portion and an axially movable portion. The grommet element is formed by the steps of installing respective connecting terminals on conduits; forming a conduit assembly from a plurality of individual conduits, and banding together two proximal points of the conduit assembly; introducing the conduit assembly into the lower part of the mold; closing the mold; moving the two proximal points closer together to produce flexural buckling of the conduits in the conduit assembly; introducing an adhesive mass into the mold, under pressure, at an elevated temperature, during a predetermined period of time; injecting the hot adhesive between the conduits of the conduit assembly; cooling the mold to solidify the adhesive; and molding PVC or another thermoplastic elastomer over the adhesive-sealed conduit assembly, to form a grommet element, and joining the thus sealed conduit assembly to a flange or dividing wall.

  • Metal plate sleeve and method of manufacture
    Patent number: 5608191
    Abstract: A metal plate sleeve and method of manufacture is obtained by placing the cables (15) on strips of rubber-base putty, then compressing the whole into the corresponding shape, followed by crown molding until the described shape of the anchoring zone (14) is obtained, forming a metal plate sleeve (10) for a bundle of cables (15), configured in accordance with the first lower truncated cone area (10b), extending on top into a cylindrical portion (21), which in turn extends on top into a truncated cone area (10a). A cylindrical portion (21) expands outward in accordance with the respective cover shields (12) and positioning shields (13).
