  • Patent number: 4479694
    Abstract: A cable clamping device of the rotary jaw type, including a hook-shaped female member adapted to be mounted on a support, and a male member of symmetrical cross-section with a cylindrical head adapted for rotation within the female hook. Cable-receiving bores in the male and female members and a separate clamping surface on the female shank cooperate to clamp the cable. Size or force adjustability is provided by making the axis of the male bore non-coincident with the axis of symmetry of the male member, and rotating the latter about its axis of symmetry. Cam-locking means are provided to create a resilient clamping pressure on the cable prior to closure, and to ensure positive locking of the device upon complete closure.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 3932021
    Abstract: A cable clamp having jaws hingedly connected at one end by a hinge having a diametrical bore through which a cable can be inserted between the jaws, is energized by tension applied to the other ends of the jaws by a means acting to draw the jaws together into clamping engagement with a cable engaged between the jaws.
