Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to an anti-slip fixing device particularly for the purpose of fixing ribbon-type straps, cables in ribbon cable connecting assembly units. In the arrangement according to the invention, the fixing elements are realized by cylindrical pins, which form surfaces according to orthogonal trajectories on the surface of the ribbon cable, in which the friction arising against the pulling force is of quadratic magnitude compared to application of the continuous, linear fixing gate.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
Anti-slip clamping device for fixing a ribbon-type cable against slipping, comprising two half pieces, fixing pins formed at least in one half piece, at least one fixing chamber formed in at least one of said half pieces for mating with the pins of the other half piece, wherein said pins have a height providing a positive three dimensional locking action on said cable without said pins penetrating into said cable, thereby eliminating the need for locking holes and a fastening means securing the two half pieces together when clamped, said pins and holes being dimensioned according to the following relations: d>b/8n wherein: d--diameter of the pin; b--width of the cable; n--number of the pins.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
Anti-slip clamping device for fixing a ribbon-type cable against slipping, comprising two half pieces, fixing pins formed at least in one half piece, at least one fixing chamber formed in at least one of said half pieces for mating with the pins of the other half piece, wherein said pins have a height providing a positive three dimensional locking action on said cable without said pins penetrating into said cable, thereby eliminating the need for locking holes and a fastening means securing the two half pieces together when clamped, said pins and holes being dimensioned according to the following relations: d>b/8n wherein: d--diameter of the pin; b--width of the cable; n--number of the pins.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said two half pieces comprises at least one fixing chamber and at least one fixing pin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 1, wherein one of said half pieces comprises said fixing pins and the other of said half pieces comprises a pinless fixing chamber.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 17 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said half pieces comprises fixing pins.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 23 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said fixing chamber comprises a single recess formed in one of said half pieces.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said fixing chamber comprises a plurality of holes bored into one of said half pieces.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 19 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said fixing chamber is a recess formed with a flange.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 4, wherein said pins of said half pieces are arranged in a single row.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 33 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 7, wherein said pins are spaced from each other and from said flange on equal distances, said distances being larger than the diameter of said pins.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 18 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 7, wherein said flange protrudes above the height of said pins.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 24 words
The clamping device as claimed in claim 10, wherein said pins have a tip radius (r) of curvature which is smaller than 0.1 mm.
