| 024122600 | Plural-strand cord or rope | 14 |
| 20090193627 | Cable termination with an angularly offset parabolic wall profile - An anchor having an internal passage defined by a revolved wall profile. The anchor is conceptually divided into four regions: a neck region, a transition region, a mid region, and a distal region. Each of these regions has its own design considerations. A portion of a parabola is used to define at least part of the revolved wall profile. The parabolic portion is preferably used in at least the neck and mid regions. In order to create a tangency condition proximate the neck anchor boundary, the parabola used to create the wall profile is angularly offset from the wall profile's axis of rotation. | 08-06-2009 |

| 20110154620 | APPARATUS FOR AND METHOD OF PROTECTING AN UMBILICAL - The present invention relates to apparatus for retaining at least one umbilical in relation to a string. The apparatus ( | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110167593 | Device for the Elastic Foreshortening of Cable, Rope or other Flexible Linear Structures - Improvements to a device as previously disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 7,219,397 wherein an elastic cord is attached to a pre-existing flexible linear structure such as a wire, tube, or rope to deform the structure and impart elastic handling properties. The improvements include features necessary for the effective manufacture and use of the device. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110232043 | ADJUSTABLE CLIP | 09-29-2011 |
| 20110239411 | PC LINK - A PC link having base, a cable hole defined in the base for receiving the power cable of an electric apparatus, a retaining arm extended from one lateral side of the base and defining with the base a retaining hole and a gap, and an elastically deformable guide portion extended from the free end of the retaining arm at one side for enabling said second cable be forced through said gap into said retaining hole and then held down in said retaining hole by said elastically deformable guide portion. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110308046 | HARNESSING APPARATUS FOR ORGANIZING AND PREVENTING THE ENTANGLEMENT OF TUBES, WIRES, CABLES, AND THE LIKE - The present invention is a harnessing apparatus to manage, organize, and prevent the entanglement of tubes, wires, cables, and the like, comprising a base and a cover that are hingedly connected to one another and having a plurality of flexible teeth that physically separate the tubes, wires, and cables so as to keep them organized and prevent their entanglement. The preferred embodiment of the present invention relates to a harnessing apparatus that is used in a healthcare facility setting to organize and prevent the entanglement of intravenous (IV) tubes and other monitoring wires and cables connected directly to a patient. However, it is recognized that the present invention can also be configured for use with other tubes, wires, and cables in a non-healthcare facility setting, such as household appliances, computers, entertainment systems, and even the tubes and wires inside the engine of an automobile, boat, or aircraft. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20120036683 | ROPE TERMINATION - A rope termination ( | 02-16-2012 |
| 20120073087 | Low friction cord lock - A cord lock with an internal structure designed to guide a pair of cord parts through the device smoothly to minimize friction thereby increasing final tension in the cord parts. And further designed to guide the cord exit on the operators side to facilitate a tightening method where the cord parts can be held one in each hand and pulled apart giving the operator more leverage and multiplying the tension force in the cord parts ( | 03-29-2012 |
| 20120096684 | Rope crossing and rope play equipment and method for producing a rope crossing and apparatus for performing the method - The present invention relates to a rope crossing for securing rope lines on each other as well as rope play equipment which has at least one rope crossing according to the invention. The rope crossing includes at least two crossing rope lines and a ring, wherein the ring has an inner opening which comprises twice the number of essentially radially extending receiving regions in relation to the number of rope lines to be secured, and wherein a corresponding line segment of a rope line forming a bulge is received in two corresponding receiving regions that face one another, so that the bulges of crossing rope lines are arranged on respective opposite sides of the ring. The ratio of the unobstructed width LW of a receiving region to the diameter of the rope line D, which forms the bulge in this receiving region, is LW/D=0.8 to 0.98. | 04-26-2012 |
| 20130255036 | Rear Basket-to-Frame Locking Clip - A shopping cart basket is attached to the rear portion of a basket frame using a clip that is configured to removably affix to the frame, a pair of joined-together rim wires that are attached to the basket. The joined-together wires are oriented to slide into the clip and downwardly through a slot into a substantially circular opening. Once in the opening, the wires are rotated. The width of the slot is selected such that rotated wires are too wide to pass back through the slot. The clip enables the basket to be assembled to the frame without requiring tools or welding. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20140013546 | TASSEL PROTECTOR AND METHOD - The present invention relates to an apparatus and of a method of preserving and protecting tassels. More particularly, the present invention relates to a tassel protector accommodating at least one tassel, particularly when undergoing high wear operations, such as, but not limited to, machine laundry. The invention is concerned with an apparatus to maintain the aesthetic appearance of the tassel by placing and holding a plurality of component strands of decorative tassels into their original conditions during high wear operations. | 01-16-2014 |
| 20140026372 | ANCHORING DEVICE FOR A MULTI-TENDON CABLE - The anchoring device for a cable made of plurality of tendons comprises an anchor block having a front side, a rear side and channels extending between the front and rear sides, each tendon of the cable being received in a respective channel with a blocking member. It also comprises a first protective material with which at least some of the channels of the anchor block are filled, a chamber containing portions of the plurality of tendons of the cable, located on at least one of the front and rear sides of the anchor block, and a second protective material, different from the first protective material, with which the chamber is filled. | 01-30-2014 |
