Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to cable clamps and more specifically to cable clamp yokes.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a substantially non-tangling cable clamp yoke.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide cable clamp yokes which may be untangled by shaking or similar means.
  • cable clamp yokes of the type generally disclosed herein tended to tangle and lock with one another and could not be separated again by simple, mechanical means such as a shaking. This infiuences all subsequent automated manufacturing operations after blanking and stamping. Such yokes tangled or locked in one another cannot be hardened and/or galvanically treated to a qualitatively satisfactory degree because their heating and cooling, or the deposit on them, respectively, are irregular.
  • the present invention concerns the improvement of the quality of the cable clamp yokes.
  • a purposeful redesign of the yokes is provided, without impairing function at all.
  • FIG. 1 shows a side elevation of a cable clamp yoke according to the invention, with a support having an en- "ice gagernent stud extending therefrom and a pair of cables all shown in phantom;
  • FIG. 2 shows a top plan view of the yoke according to FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 shows an end elevation, in larger scale, of the yoke.
  • the cable clamp vyoke represented by FIGS. 1 to 3 contains, besides the supporting tongues 1a and 1b which protrude upward and serve to fasten it to a cylindrical part in its median or center portion, arms 2a and 2b which are bent in accordance with their function to grip the cables and which are bent forward beyond their corners so as to form rounded ends 4a and 4b.
  • Wart-like humps or protuberances 3, protruding outward, are embossed into arms 2a and 2b close to the corners.
  • the protuberances or dimples 3 allow one cable clamp yoke to be stacked on top of the other while the turned edges and dimples prevent tangling.
  • arm 4 rounded at its end, is bent outward in an opposite direction to the original bending direction of the arm so that it runs approximately parallel to the median or center portion.
  • the corners 5 of the arms are bent outward at right angles to the diagonals of the plate bar on the other side of the hump 3.
  • clamping yokes according to the present invention is their uniformity in quality.
  • the manufacturing process also is more economical and handling on the part of the consumer is facilitated.
  • a cable clamp yoke comprising a base portion having a median portion, a pair of end portions joined by the median portion, the median portion having a pair of tongues formed from the material thereof, the tongues bent upward from the median portion and each of the tongues having a free terminal end and the free terminal ends defining an opening therebetween and each of the end portions having a dimple formed outwardly therein, a free terminal edge and a corner at each end of the terminal edge, each of the terminal edges being bent forward beyond their respective corners to form a bent portion and each terminal edge proximate its dimple being bent forward to provide a portion in substantially parallel relationship with said median portion.
