  • Patent number: 4802865
    Abstract: The present arrangement includes a central housing member which has a hollow chamber therein and which has at least two apertures passing from the outside wall into the internal hollow chamber. The apertures are disposed, or positioned, so that their axes are at an angle of less than 180.degree. to each other and in a preferred embodiment are at right angles to each other. The walls of the apertures are formed to be connectable. In the preferred embodiment one of the aperture walls is threaded internally to accept an externally threaded cable connector piece while the other aperture wall is formed into an externally threaded protrusion thereby enabling an internally threaded cable connector piece to be threaded onto the externally threaded protrusion. The cable connector pieces are designed to be secured to a cable and thus the entire cable connector assembly is secured to a cable which cable is positioned to define a right angle (or other angle) path.

  • Patent number: 4781617
    Abstract: The present arrangement includes a support member which is formed to: (1) have tines extending from one end; and (2) have a threaded section lying adjacent to the beginning of the tines. In addition the present arrangement in the preferred embodiment includes a rubberized cone shaped insert which has an aperture therethrough and which enables a great number of different sized cables to be clamped. Further in addition there is included a compression nut which is internally threaded in one section, which is shaped internally concave in another section (and which has an aperture therethrough), and which is threaded onto said support member. Such threading action causes the tines to be bent inward toward one another and simultaneously to pass through the aperture of the compression nut. The tines are serrated on their respective inner surfaces and as they are bent toward each other they come in contact with the rubberized insert and act to clamp thereon which in turn secures the support member to a cable jacket.
