3 Claims, 1 Drawing Figure HOLDER ASSEMBLY FOR CABLES AND METHOD The present invention relates to knot assemblies and more particularly to a knot assembly for flexible cables. Illustrative cables used in this invention are plastic coated stranded metal cables, stranded metal cables without plastic coating, plastic coated stranded fiberglass cables, plastic coated stranded dacron cables, extruded synthetic plastic (e.g., neoprene) stretch tie-down cables, and the like.
Plastic coated metal cables comprising a core of stranded metal wires and a plastic coating completely surrounding said core are well known and find widespread applications due to their flexibility, their smooth, not hurting surface and their resistance to rusting. They can be used for instance in pull cords, tennis net supports, clothes lines, animal attachment lines, in the sailing boat industry, in the camping industry and in emergency cases.
In the past the main disadvantage of this kind of cable has been the difficulty of effectively assembling two lengths of cable in order to obtain an extension, or to form a loop. A conventional knot did not resist high forces applied to it because of the relative stiffness of the cable and its smooth surface. Therefore metal clamps have been used which cut into the plastic coating, thus providing resistance to slippage, but damaging the cable.
One object of the present invention consists therefore in providing a knot assembly for flexible cables, which assures resistance to slippage and can easily be tied or untied without damaging the cable.
Another object of the present invention consists in providing a method for obtaining a knot assembly of the above features.
In accordance with these objects the present invention provides a knot assembly formed of two lengths of said flexible cable and two relatively rigid inserting means each being formed with two holes separated by an intermediate portion, said holes being larger than the double of the diameter of said flexible cable, all said holes of both inserting means being aligned in series, said lengths of cable being interlaced with said rigid inserting means.
Further features and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description of a preferred embodiment thereof, with reference to the accompanied drawing, which shows a knot assembly according to the present invention.
Referring now to the drawing, two lengths la and lb of a flexible cable 1 are integral to form a loop 4. Two relatively rigid, preferably equal, shaped metal rods 2 and 3 are each shaped to define a first hole 2a, 3a and a second hole 21:, 3c, separated from each other by an intermediate portion 2b, 3b of said shaped rod, thus defining, as shown in the drawing, two figure eight shaped members. Said holes are slightly larger than the double of the diameter of cable 1 so as to permit an easy insertion of two cables in each hole, but not being too large, as that would result in an undesired bulkiness of the knot assembly.
A suitable separation between said shaped rods 2 and 3 has shown to be approximately the width of one of said figure eight shaped members, but this is not intended to be a limiting factor of the invention.
Said holes 2a, 2c, 3a, 30 are aligned in series, and cable 1 extends upwardly through hole 20, over said intermediate portion 2b, downwardly through hole 2c, upwardly through hole 3a, over said intermediate portion 3b, downwardly through hole 3c, thence forming loop 4 which can be bent around any bar, ring or the like for the purpose of fixation of the cable 1 said cable 1 then extending downwardly through hole 3c, under said intermediate portion 3b, upwardly through hole 34, downwardly through hole 20, under said intermediate portion 2b, upwardly through hole 2a, and around and under section lb of cable 1 extending over said intermediate portion 2b of said shaped rod 2, section 1a of cable 1 projecting outside of the contact point with said section 1b.
It is to be understood that the words upwardly and downwardly used in this description only refer to a relative position of the shaped rods, but are intended to limit the invention.
A method according to the present invention to obtain the said knot assembly will now be described. Said flexible cable 1 is introduced upwardly through hole 2a, led over said intermediate portion 2b, introduced downwardly through hole 20, upwardly through hole 30, led over said intermediate portion 3b, introduced through hole 30, bent into said loop 4, introduced downwardly through hole 3c, led under said intermediate portion 3b, introduced upwardly through hole 311, downwardly through hole 20, led under said intermediate portion 2b, introduced upwardly through hole 2a, bent tightly around section 1b of cable 1 and inserted between said intermediate portion 2b and said section lb. Finally both sections 1a and 1b are pulled together to make sure that section 1a is fixedly clenched. Section la should project outside the clenching point approximately a length sufficient to permit to be plied over itself, since a too short length causes the section 1a to be stiff, thus not allowing it to seat itself against the intermediate portion 2b, and provides the danger of said section slipping out under load conditions.
The use of at least two shaped metal rods has been found to be necessary to provide the required resistance to slippage of the knot assembly since one shaped rod alone would not develop enough breaking strength of the cable. This resistance to slippage or breaking strength is based on the friction created between the cable and the shaped metal rods by the assembly according to the invention. Said friction is basically produced by three different characteristic features of the knot assembly:
a. In the clenching point of the section 1a between section lb and the intermediate portion 2b an increase of the force applied to the section 1b results in an increase of the clenching pressure on the section la, thus also resulting in an increase of the friction which prevents said section 10 from slippage.
b. The changes of direction of the axis of the cable due to the fact of interlacing it with the shaped metal rods cause the pressure of the cable against the said shaped rods to be increased when applying a force on said cable, resulting in a further increase of the friction preventing the slippage of the cable on said shaped rods. The use of two shaped rods is important because it increases the number of said changes of direction.
c. The scissor effect accomplished on several parts of i the shaped metal rods contributes to clench the metal rod between two portions of cable, thus increasing the pressure between said rod and the cable and consequently the friction preventing the slippage of the cable on said shaped rods. The greatest contribution to the whole resistance to slippage of the assembly is originated by the feature described under a, that is in the clenching point of section la.
Thus, the present invention provides an efficient knot assembly for flexible cables, which can easily be tied or untied despite the relative stiffness of such a cable.
It is to be understood that the present invention shall not be limited to the specific embodiment herein described, as various modifications can be realized within the scope covered by the following claims.
