  • Cable pulley device
    Patent number: 6045124
    Abstract: A lightweight cable pulley device and method provides ease and convenience in offices and other buildings during the installation of sensitive data transmission cable such as termed "Category 5" or fiber optic. The pulley device is suspended by an integral strap and the cable supported therefrom by a single installer without the necessity of a helper to pass the cable around turns or obstacles in the path. A pulley wheel is rotatably attached to an axle which is affixed to the strap at one end, with the other end positionable through a pair of strapped catches proximate the wheel. The cable guide is attached to the inside of the strap above the wheel to allow the cable to securely pass between the wheel and the guide.
