2 Claims.
Our invention relates to the disposition and support of marine cables, pipes and other cylindrical bodies, and has among its objects and advantages the provision of an improved hanger.
In the accompanying drawing the figure is an elevational view of a bracket in accordance with our invention illustrating a group of cables of different diameters anchored thereto.
The hanger structure includes a bracket bar 86 of U-shape and having its ends 88 bolted at 90 to supports 92. The blocks 26 are mounted in an inverted channel or clamping bar 94, and a spacer or shim 96 is interposed between the bar 86 and the small diameter cables 98. The larger diameter cables I are mounted directly on the bar 86. Three bolts I02 pass through the bar 86 and the channel 94 to clamp the parts into a unitary structure. The hanger provides accommodation for an exceptionally large number of cables or other cylindrical bodies, in addition to providing accommodation for extremely small as well as large diameter bodies.
The blocks 26 work equally well in connection with plain bars or channels. The cables or other cylindrical bodies are easily installed in the hanger, and the blocks are so devised as to provide accommodation for considerable variation in the cable diameters. The parts of the hanger are clamped into a unitary structure, and the cables are effectively supported in a well arranged order.
Conventional cable brackets employ a hanger bar on which the cables are rested together with a strap bent to partly embrace the cables to press the latter against the bar. Such devices are objectionable in that if the straps are preformed, it is necessary to employ cables of diameters and equal in number to the strap, otherwise the assembly cannot be clamped into a firm assembly. To bend the strap on the job requires considerable time and labor.
In the instant case, cables of variable diameters and numbers may be easily and quickly secured into a unitary structure, and the cables need not be arranged in a predetermined order since the blocks 26 facilitate firm mounting of the cables regardless of the order of their varying diameters.
Without further elaboration, the foregoing will so fully explain our invention, that others may, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt the same for use under various conditions of service.
We claim:
1. In a hanger for cables and the like, an elongated bracket bar, a channel clamping bar having itsfianges facing the bracket bar and mounted parallel with said bracket bar, a plurality of holder blocks adapted to be interposed between the clamping channel and the respective cables resting on the bracket bar, each of said blocks being rectangular in cross section with its dimension transversely of the hanger being such as to slidably fit against the channel web between the flanges and its dimension longitudinally of the hanger corresponding to the diameter of the cable with which it is associated the height of each block being inversely proportional to the diameter of the cable mounted therein, the bottom of the block having a concave curvature conforming to the circumferential curvature of the cable, and means for holding the clamping and bracket bars in clamping assembly.
2. In a hanger for cables and the like, a flat elongated bracket bar having its major intermediate portion disposed horizontally, an extension at each end of said bar bent to assume a vertical position extending upwardly with relation to said intermediate portion, means for fastening each vertical extensionto a support, a channel shaped clamping bar mounted above and parallel with said bracket bar and between the vertical extensions, said channel bar having its flanges directed downwardly, a plurality of holder blocks mounted between the bars and adapted to be interposed between the clamping channel and respective cables resting on the bracket bar, each of said blocks being rectangular in horizontal cross section with its dimension transversely of the hanger being such as to slidably fit against the channel web between the flanges the height of each block being inversely proportionalto the diameter of the cable mounted therein and its dimension longitudinally of the hanger corresponding to the diameter of the cable with which it is associated, the bottom of the block having a concaved curvature conforming to the circumferential curvature of the cable, and bolts extended vertically through the clamping and bracket bars for clamping the cables between the blocks and the bracket bar.
