- Such a device is known from DE 87 06 091 Ul.
- the attachment of the tether on the cable is effected in that one end of the same is drawn after wrapping a cable section through a ring arranged at the other end of the band.
- the two strap ends complementary velcro sections are assigned, which allow a reveal strap loop.
- a disadvantage of the known design is that the so-called "Universalbinder" defining band is not captive attached to the cable to be stored or the like ..
- the prior art universal binder has the disadvantage that no associated device for suspending the same and the associated cable is provided.
- cable ties made of plastic strips or rods are often used for accommodating bundled cables in the company and private sector. These cable ties are characterized by the fact that they are used substantially only once, since their ends are not detachably connected to each other.
- the commercially available plastic cable ties on no labeling fields so that they are unsuitable for an orderly storage of cables. Also missing in the conventional plastic cable ties separate suspension options.
- the present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a device of the type mentioned, which is captively connected to an associated cable, which, if necessary, this connection can be opened or resolved at any time. Also, it should be possible with the device according to the invention to hang the respective associated cable ordered.
- the band comprises a separate device for attachment to the cable; that is, the tether is not used directly for attachment to the associated cable, but instead a separate device is provided, which is of course connected to the tether.
- the device comprises a suspension device, in particular a suspension loop, by means of which the held-together cable can be suspended in an orderly manner.
- Cable includes a cord loop whose free end is tightened around the cable. This connection is easy to open at any time so that the device can be is widely used.
- the cord loop may be justified by a rubber band, whereby a flexible connection between tether and cable is obtained.
- the free ends are linked by a loop or a node.
- the tether has a predetermined distance from each other arranged predetermined tear lines for the separation of sections, so that the tether can be shortened if necessary, without the need for a tool is required.
- the labeling field is preferably part of a trailer, which is fastened to the band.
- the cable fastening device and / or the suspension loop are preferably attached to the aforementioned trailer.
- the arrangement of the labeling field on or within a separate trailer allows the formation of a slot pocket with window, in which a label sheet can be inserted.
- the device By attaching the cable fastener and the hanger loop on the trailer, the device includes in a particularly advantageous manner, both the captive cable attachment, the ordinary suspension and the label.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention is characterized in that the hanger is formed by a material strip, in particular a plastic strip, which is rigid relative to the holding strap and has a recess for hanging on a wall nail or the like. Suspension means. The recess is preferably designed as a punched opening in the material strip mentioned.
- the tether is connected to said hanger, preferably applied to the underside defining flat side of the hanger such that a passage for receiving a Jardinab- cut is formed between the tether and the hanger, said passage defining the separate cable fastening means.
- the tether may, in one preferred embodiment, be formed in two parts, the one first portion being fastened directly to the hanger, while the other second portion of one of the two ends of the first portion being overlappingly secured to the first portion, between the overlapping portion of the second Section and the first portion of the passage for receiving a cable portion is formed.
- the strip of material defining the hanger has a width which is about the
- the thickness of the hanger corresponds.
- the thickness of the hanger is about two to three times the thickness of the tether.
- the material strip defining the hanger can also be formed by a plastic-coated textile tape.
- hanger has at least one lateral recess at the end opposite the insertion opening, so that this end portion can be anchored within the suspension opening of the hanger with another corresponding device for the orderly storage of cables.
- the hanger has at least one lateral recess at the end opposite the insertion opening, so that this end portion can be anchored within the suspension opening of the hanger with another corresponding device for the orderly storage of cables.
- FIG. 1 shows an inventively designed device for storing cables od. Like. In plan view;
- Fig. 2 connected to a cable and suspended from a hook
- FIG. 3 shows the aforementioned device according to FIG. 2 with the cohesion of a meandering folded cable section
- Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment of an embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 5 shows the device according to FIG. 4 in side view
- FIGS. 4 and 5 shows the device according to FIGS. 4 and 5 while retaining a meander-shaped folded cable section in plan view
- FIG. 7 shows the device according to FIG. 6 in side view
- Fig. 8 shows two devices according to FIG. 6 connected to one another and in plan view.
- Fig. 1 shows an apparatus for the orderly storage of cables, e.g. Computer, audio or video cables designed in the manner of a cable tie.
- This device is identified by the reference numeral 10. It comprises a tether 11, the ends of which are looped around a particular meandering folded cable section 12 (see FIG. 3), detachably connectable to each other, wherein this
- a trailer 14 On the tether 11, a trailer 14 is attached, which has an insertion pocket with window 15 for receiving a label sheet.
- the trailer 14 is either sewn or glued to the belt 11.
- a suspension loop 16 on the one hand and a cable fastening device 15 in the form of a cord loop on the other hand are arranged.
- the suspension loop is used to hang the device with or without cable to a wall or shelf hook 17 (see Fig. 2).
- the fastening loop 15 is wrapped with its free end around a cable 12 as shown in FIG. 2, including the cable 12.
- the entire device 10 is pulled through the free loop end.
- the looping of the cable 12 is fixed to the cable 12. If necessary, this looping can be released again at any time.
- the cable is secured at a distance from the tether 11 on the device 10.
- the cable can be held without constraint in the collapsed state, as shown in Fig. 3.
- Zwhackungsok means in this context that even with a meandering folded cable 12 of the trailer 14 and thus also the label field or the associated window 15 extends substantially undeformed on the folded cable 12.
- the cord loop 15 is formed by a rubber loop, whereby an even greater "constraint freedom" is obtained.
- the tether 11 may have a predetermined distance from each other arranged predetermined tear lines, so that it can be shortened if necessary without tools more or less. On the other hand, it is of course also possible to cut off for the purpose of shortening the tether 11 correspondingly long end portions by means of a pair of scissors.
- a further imple mentation of a device according to the invention for the storage of cable sections is shown.
