  • Patent number: 8561950
    Abstract: A quick-release cable management apparatus includes a securing board and cable management clip. Cables can very conveniently be secured in the clip, or removed from the clip, and the clip itself can be detached and remounted elsewhere very quickly. The securing board defines a securing hole. The cable management clip includes a base and a pressing member pivoting on the base. The base includes a sprung wedge located in the securing hole to lock the clip in place. The pressing member is adapted to rotate between a locking position and a unlocking position. In the locking position, the pressing member is locked with the base to form a cable management space between the pressing member and the base. In the unlocking position, the pressing member is unlocked with the base to open the cable management space.
