| 20110162865 | CABLE HOLDING STRUCTURE FOR WIND TURBINE GENERATOR - A wind turbine generator includes a tower, a nacelle mounted on the tower, at least one cable suspended downward from the nacelle inside the tower, a protective tube attached to the cable to surround the cable, and a cable swing restraint support attached to the tower and provided in a position opposed to the protective tube to surround the protective tube. The protective tube is relatively movable with respect to the cable swing restraint support. | 07-07-2011 |
| 20120006578 | WIND ENERGY PLANT HAVING A TWISTABLE NACELLE CABLE GUIDE - A wind energy installation includes a tower and a nacelle arranged at the top of the tower such that it can swivel in the azimuth direction. The installation also includes a plurality of cables which are guided via a loop from the tower into the nacelle, the cables being held at a distance from one another in the loop by means of rotationally fixed and loose holders. The holders each have receptacles for attachment of the cables with a predetermined circumferential separation. The holders include a lower rotationally fixed guide ring and an aligning upper loose guide ring. A loop guide is formed such that the loop is subdivided by means of the rotationally fixed lower guide ring into a curved untwisted area and an extended twisted area. | 01-12-2012 |
| 20130248220 | ROTATABLE CONNECTOR DEVICE - The object is to allow rotatable rollers to rotate smoothly. Rotatable rollers axially supported by bearings provided in a retainer so as to be rotatable include legs, each of which has an engaging part engageable with the corresponding bearing. A sliding part of the leg which is slidable against an inner circumferential surface of the bearing has a cross-sectional shape which is contactable with the inner circumferential surface over a width smaller than a width of the leg. | 09-26-2013 |
| 20140216779 | CHARGING CABLE ACCOMMODATION DEVICE AND VEHICLE - A charging stand includes: a charging cable provided with a connector connected to a vehicle; a holding unit to hold the connector; and a reel to wind the charging cable automatically when the connector is placed on the holding unit. A vehicle includes: a charging cable provided with a plug connected to an external power supply; a holding unit to hold the plug; and a reel to wind the charging cable automatically when the plug is placed on the holding unit. | 08-07-2014 |
| 20140360752 | CABLE BACKPLANE SYSTEM - A cable backplane system includes a backplane having a plurality of openings therethrough and a cable rack coupled to a rear of the backplane. The cable rack includes a tray having a frame surrounding a raceway and a brick held by the tray. The brick has side spacers at opposite sides of the brick and plates coupled to the side spacers that support a plurality of cable connector assemblies. Each cable connector assembly is positioned between and supported by corresponding plates on opposite sides of the cable connectors with the cable connectors positioned in corresponding openings in the backplane. The plates each include a hem folded over at a rear of the plate. The hem has an edge positioned rearward of the cable connectors and supporting the cable connectors from retreating from the openings in the backplane. | 12-11-2014 |
| 20140360753 | GUIDE FEATURES FOR A CABLE BACKPLANE SYSTEM - A cable backplane system includes a backplane having a plurality of openings therethrough. A cable rack is coupled to a rear of the backplane, which includes a tray and spacers coupled to the tray that have guide pins. Cable connector assemblies are held by the tray. Removable dust caps are coupled to corresponding cable connectors each having a distal end and guide walls extending therefrom that guide mating of the cable rack with the backplane. The distal end of each dust cap is received in a corresponding opening in the backplane. The guide walls guide the cable rack relative to the backplane such that the guide pins of the spacers are aligned with guide holes of the backplane and such that the cable connectors are aligned with the openings of the backplane. The removable dust caps are removed after the cable rack is coupled to the backplane. | 12-11-2014 |
| 20140367139 | CABLE COLLECTOR - The present invention relates to a cable collector ( | 12-18-2014 |
| 20150008009 | Current Sensor Mounting Adaptor - Apparatus and associated methods relate to a mounting adapter which connects to a current sensor and provides an alignment of a bus bar to the current sensor while securely mounting the current sensor to the bus bar. In some embodiments, a mounting adapter may be inserted into an aperture of the current sensor. A bus bar may then be inserted into an aperture in the mounting adapter sized to receive the bus bar and to align it within the current sensor. The bus bar may substantially fill the entire aperture space which may lock the mounting adapter to the current sensor. In some embodiments the bus bar may be secured to the mounting adapter. The secure alignment and coupling of the bus bar to the current sensor via an exemplary mounting adapter may eliminate the need for separate mounting and alignment of the bus bar and current sensor. | 01-08-2015 |
| 20150034356 | SPACER ASSEMBLIES FOR A CABLE BACKPLANE SYSTEM - A cable backplane system includes a backplane having a plurality of openings and mounting locations with guide holes and a datum surface. A cable rack is coupled to the backplane. The cable rack includes a tray having a frame and spacer assemblies coupled to the tray. The spacer assemblies are coupled to the backplane at corresponding mounting locations. Each spacer assembly has a floating spacer and a spring pressing the floating spacer in a biasing direction. The floating spacer is allowed to float relative to the frame in the biasing direction. The floating spacer has a guide pin extending from a front thereof. The spring presses the floating spacer in the biasing direction such that the guide pin is received in the guide hole and the front of the floating spacer abuts against the datum surface. | 02-05-2015 |
| 20160105008 | BRACKET FOR SECURING ITEMS OF FURNITURE WITHOUT TOOLS OR FASTENERS - A system for assembling furniture includes a bracket coupled to a first item and a frame coupled to a second item of furniture. The bracket is configured to removably interengage with the frame. The bracket includes a pair of co-planar extensions, a pair of supports, and an elongated resilient bent middle section having a length dimension that is longer than a length dimension of each of the extensions such that end tab portions of the bent middle section extend beyond the supports. The frame includes a pair of rails, each rail having a recess and a flange. The recess receives respective ones of the end tab portions. The flange receives respective ones of the end tab portions responsive to the middle section being urged from the recess into the flange to cause the bent middle section to deform into an interference fit engagement with the flange. | 04-14-2016 |
| 20160111864 | WIRING CARRIER - A wiring carrier is shown and described and can include a plate body on which can be formed a connector mount and a wire securement structures. The wire securement structures can include a wire cradle that is the connector mount. A hatch is configures to engage the wire cradle to secure a wire in the wire cradle. The plate body further can include a connector on the plate and configured to connect the plate to another component. The wire securement structure can also include a flex feature to engage a wire in the cradle or by the hatch | 04-21-2016 |
