20100000782 | FITTING DIVIDER WALL FOR A MULTI-CHANNEL METAL RACEWAY - The present invention is directed towards a multi-channel raceway system with a raceway and a fitting component. The raceway includes a base with a bottom and sidewalls that define a channel and a divider wall positioned within the channel. The fitting component includes a base with a bottom and sidewalls that define a channel and a plurality of sets of raised projections. The fitting component also includes a fitting divider wall positioned within the channel of the fitting component. The fitting divider wall includes at least one positioning tab along the bottom of the fitting divider wall for engaging the raised projections extending from the fitting base to secure the fitting divider wall to the fitting base. | 01-07-2010 |
20100000783 | FLOOR STAND FOR MOUNTING AN ELECTRICAL BOX - A floor stand is disclosed for mounting an electrical box at a location above a floor between two wall studs. The floor stand has an elongate sheet metal body and at least one mounting arm attached to the body. In one embodiment, the mounting arm is bendable from a position extending lengthwise of the body to a position in which it extends generally laterally outward from the body for attachment to one of the wall studs. In another embodiment, the two mounting arms are detachable from the body and re-attachable in the stated second position. An optional cable-containment section for connection to the box-mounting section of the floor stand is also disclosed. | 01-07-2010 |
20100000784 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING ELECTRICAL CABLE HAVING REDUCED REQUIRED FORCE FOR INSTALLATION - Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a finished cable by a process directed to reduce the amount of force required to install the cable. The process involves the extrusion of the cable's outer sheath and the incorporation of a pulling lubricant in connection with, and prior to the completion of, the extrusion to reduce the sheath's surface coefficient of friction as well as reduce the required force to pull the cable for installation. The conductor core is coated with an extruded plastic material with which an appropriate (in amount and type) pulling lubricant is initially combined with the plastic material prior to the formation of the sheath and in which the sheathed conductor core is thereafter cooled, the lubricant either migrating to and/or permeating the sheath to be available at the surface of the sheath at the time of the cable's installation. The preselected lubricant is disclosed as either combined with the plastic material during initial pelletization, or mixed with the plastic pellets prior to introduction of the mixture into the extruding head, or introduced into the extruding head at a separate location downstream from where the plastic material is introduced into the extruding head. | 01-07-2010 |
20100101855 | CABLE RACEWAY WITH BOX - A combination of a cable raceway and a power device box where the cable raceway includes at least one and usually at least two compartments extending along a length of the raceway. The power device box includes a base unit. The compartment of the cable raceway includes a removable cover forming a wall of the raceway. The base unit extends over the compartment of the raceway and is secured to the raceway. A power device box base unit receives cables from the raceway. | 04-29-2010 |
20110088941 | PERIMETER ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM - An electrical power system including a first power entry unit, at least one receptacle, and a second power entry unit. The at least one receptacle is electrically connected to the first power entry unit. The second power entry unit is electrically connectable to the at least one receptacle. The first power entry unit and the second power entry unit include at least one detection device. Either the first power entry unit or the second power entry unit is a selected power entry unit and the remaining one is another power entry unit. The detection device is configured to preclude an electrical power connection of both the selected power entry unit and the other power entry unit to the at least one receptacle. | 04-21-2011 |

20130056259 | IN-WALL EXTENSION APPARATUS - Various embodiments of the apparatus and/or methods are described for routing power to a wall-mounted appliance, particularly for routing electrical wiring and audio/video cabling up through a wall to power and communicate with a wall-mounted presentation device. The apparatus and systems include input and output enclosures with wiring therebetween and mechanisms for mounting the input and output enclosures adjacent to pre-cut wall openings. There exists at least one electrical input connector, disposed within the input enclosure, configured to electrically couple with a power source, and at least one electrical output connector, disposed within the output enclosure, configured to electrically couple with a wall-mounted appliance. | 03-07-2013 |
20140041927 | Electrical Outlet Box Acoustic Seal - An electrical outlet box acoustic seal includes a seal body formed from a flexible sound suppressing material. The seal body has a front side, a rear side, and a peripheral edge. A seal rear projection extends from the seal rear side. The seal rear projection is configured to wrap around a front peripheral edge of an electrical outlet box having left and right sides, top and bottom sides, a rear side, and an open front defined by the outlet box front peripheral edge that provides access to an outlet box interior. When the outlet box is mounted in an opening formed in an architectural separation, and when the acoustic seal is installed on the outlet box, the seal rear projection inserts into a gap between the outlet box front peripheral edge and the opening of the architectural separation to assist in blocking noise transmission through the gap. | 02-13-2014 |
