Patented Oct. 14, 1930 PATENT OFFICE OLIVER C. PATTERSON, OF COMPTON, CALIFORNIA WIRE-CABLE CLAMP Application filed January 14, 1929. Serial No. 332,466.
This invention relates to a wire cable clamp by means of which a cable or a plurality of cables may be securely gripped for the purpose of holding the cable against movement, for example, as a guy wire, or other similar or analogous uses.
An object of my invention is to provide a clamp particularly useful around an oil well derrick and which may be adapted for various uses such as drawing the *able over the crown block, holding the sand line against displacement, connecting various lengths of cable, and the l ke.
A further objectis to provide wire cable clamp which is simple in construction and ffective in use.
Other objects, advantages, and features of ii'ivention ma appear from the accompany ing drawing, the suhjoined detailed description, and the appended claims.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my clamp with parts broken away to show interior construction.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the clamp.
Figure is a side elevation of my in open position.
Figure I} is a ph .1 view of a slightly moditied form of clamp, one side being open.
'- F re 5 is side elevation of the same. y
l are 6 is a side elevation of still another dified type of clamp.
The sections 2, are each provided with a half-bore 8, 9, respectively, said half-bores clamp Di-t being so arranged that when the clamp is closed a c' "cular bore is provided to receive the cable 10. These bores are preferably corruga-ted or ribbed so that the cable is more securely clamped.
The lower ends of the sections 2, 3 are threaded, as shown at 11, and asocket 12 screws thereon which socket may be provided with a hook or an eye, as shown at 13. This socket further holds the two sections of the clamp securely together and prevents any movement thereof. A shoulder 1e is provided on the sections 2, 3 against which the socket 11 screws. A tapered opening 15 is provided at the lower end of the clamp 1 to receive the enlarged end of the cable when my clamp is used as a rope socket.
If desired, a flange 16 may be provided on top of the section 3 whereby my clamp can be fastened to the derrick head board, or the like. A slip 17 is slidably mounted in the section 2 and is actuated by the lever 18, which lever is connected to the slip by the link 19. A pair of ears 20 are formed on the top of the section 2 between which the lever 18 is pivoted. With this latter arrangement my clamp is particularly useful for holding the sand line or the like, against movement While said line is not in use.
In Figures 1 and 5 I have illustrated a clamp which can conveniently hold two strands of cable and this arrangement comprises a pair of clamps 21, 22, each of which comprises a stationary segment 23 and a moving segment 24 pivotally mounted to the section 23, as at 25. Each of the sections 2% are held clamped around a cable by a bolt 26. An eye 27 is provided on the stationary section 23 by means of which the clamp can be suspended.
In Figures 6 and 7 I have shown an arrangement similar to that shown in Figures 1 and 2 which comprises a pair of hingedly connected sections 28, 29 fastened together by the bolt 30. A loop 31 is integrally formed with the section 28, the purpose be ing to fasten a chain or the like, thereto for the purpose of drawing a cable over the crown block, or another clamp may be suspended below the first clamp, or any other suitable arrangement may be entered into which is found necessary or convenient.
Having described my invention, I claim:
1. A wire cable clamp comprising a pair of sections hingedly secured together at one side thereof, a bolt securing said sections together at the other side thereof, said sections having a bore .therethrough to receive the cable, and the meeting edges of said sections being staggered to provide greater strength, and a socket screwed-onto the bottom of said sections.
2. A wire cable clamp comprising-a pair of sections hingedly secured together at one side thereof, a bolt extending through and securing said sections together at the other side thereof, said sections having a bore therethrough to receive the cable, and the meeting edges of said sections being staggered to provide greater strength, a slip in one ofysaid sections, mounting means for said sl p whereby it is movable longitudinally in said bore, and manual means connected to said slip whereby the slip may be movedlongitudinally of the bore, said slip extending partly to the bore to grip the cable.
3. A wire cable clamp comprising a pair of sections hingedly secured together at one side thereon, a bolt securing said sections aoitogether at the other side thereof, said sections having a bore therethrough to receive thecable, and the meeting edges of said-sections being staggered to provide greater strength, a slip in one of said sections, mountable longitudinally in said bore, and manual means connected to said slip whereby the same may be moved longitudinally ,of the bore, said last named means comprising a flever pivotally mounted on the clamp, and
a link connecting said slip and said lever,
said slip extending partly to the bore to grip the cable. 7 r I i sections on the one side thereof, ,a bolt extending IllTOLlghlfSZL-ld bosses, a mounting fiange integrally formed on one of said sections, saidse'ctions having a central bore extending therethrouglna slip, means mounting the slip for longitudinal movement in one of said sections, said vslip extending cured to said lever and to the slip whereby the slip is moved longitudinally.
vln testimony" whereof, Iaffix my signature.
