  • Patent number: 9316804
    Abstract: A cable closure includes a housing that delimits an interior of the cable closure and seals off the cable closure toward the outside. The housing is formed by a covering body having shells hinged together and cable insertion regions provided on mutually opposite sides of the shells. Sealing elements are positioned at the mutually opposite sides of the covering body proximate the cable insertion regions. A closing mechanism having a latch and latch support is configured to lock the shells together. The latch support has a first end section pivotably attached to one of the shells and a second end section pivotably attached to the locking latch, which in turn has an end section serving as an actuating handle for closing and opening the cable closure.

  • Patent number: 8772641
    Abstract: Cable strain relief device for a cable closure, having at least one cable guiding element, whereby a cable to be restrained can be fixed at a respective cable guiding element via a cable tie surrounding the cable to be restrained and the respective cable guiding element, whereby on both sides of the at least one cable guiding element there are positioned cable tie guiding elements providing guiding surfaces, whereby the guiding surface of a first cable tie guiding element being positioned at a first side of the cable guiding element, namely at the cable tie entry side of the same, has a smaller distance from the cable guiding element than the guiding surface of a second cable tie guiding element being positioned at a second side of the cable guiding element, namely at the cable tie exit side of the same.

  • Publication number: 20140050452
    Abstract: A cable closure includes a housing delimiting an interior of the cable closure. The housing includes a covering body having cable insertion regions on opposite sides and shells that each have, at the cable insertion regions, a barrier wall associated with the interior of the cable closure and a barrier wall remote from the interior of the cable closure. Deformable sealing elements are positioned in the cable insertion regions, there being a deformable sealing element associated with each shell at each cable insertion region positioned between the barrier wall associated with the interior of the cable closure and the barrier wall remote from the interior of the cable closure. At least one of the barrier walls of each of the shells includes a first segment fixedly attached to the respective shell and at least one second segment detachable from the first segment.

  • Publication number: 20120279749
    Abstract: A cable closure, having a housing delimiting an interior and sealing off the cable closure toward the outside, said housing comprising a covering body, said covering body comprising shells and providing on mutually opposite sides cable insertion regions for inserting cables into said interior and/or for passing cables out of said interior of the cable closure, wherein compressible and/or deformable sealing elements are positioned proximal to said cable insertion regions, and wherein said shells can be locked together by a closing mechanism, whereby said shells are hinged together at first sides so that said shells can be pivoted relative to each other when opening and closing the cable closure, and that the closing mechanism can be used to lock said shells to each other at second sides of the same when said shells are in the closed position.

  • Patent number: 7324632
    Abstract: The invention relates to a distribution device (2) in a data signal processing installation (1), and a data signal processing installation (1). The distribution device comprises a distribution block (3) which has a receiving device containing elements to which data signal lines (4, 5, 6) can be connected, the functional elements having a circuit to distribute signals transmitted by the data signal lines (4, 5, 6). The distribution device also comprises a data signal editing unit with active and/or passive electronic components, in which the data signals transmitted from the data signal lines (3, 4, 5) are edited in a pre-determined manner. The data signal editing unit is integrated into the components of the distribution block (3).
