Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
170 words
A cable eye comprising a first face plate, said faceplate provided with an aperture therein a hollow cylindrical eye mounted on said first face plate such that the longitudinal axis of said eye is essentially perpendicular to said first face plate and aligned with the aperture in said first plate, first and second elongated spacers mounted on said first face plate and disposed so that a wedge shaped space is provided there between, said second elongated spacer arcuately bent outwardly and away from the apex of said wedge shaped space, a clamping block provided with an aperture therein movably mounted on said first face plate in proximity of said spacers disposed so that said eye extends through the aperture in said clamping block, said aperture in said clamping block adapted to allow said clamping block to move toward and away from said first and second spacers, a second face plate mounted on said eye and first and second spacers, said second plate disposed essentially parallel to said first face plate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
170 words
A cable eye comprising a first face plate, said faceplate provided with an aperture therein a hollow cylindrical eye mounted on said first face plate such that the longitudinal axis of said eye is essentially perpendicular to said first face plate and aligned with the aperture in said first plate, first and second elongated spacers mounted on said first face plate and disposed so that a wedge shaped space is provided there between, said second elongated spacer arcuately bent outwardly and away from the apex of said wedge shaped space, a clamping block provided with an aperture therein movably mounted on said first face plate in proximity of said spacers disposed so that said eye extends through the aperture in said clamping block, said aperture in said clamping block adapted to allow said clamping block to move toward and away from said first and second spacers, a second face plate mounted on said eye and first and second spacers, said second plate disposed essentially parallel to said first face plate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
