A cable bundling system is disclosed. The cable bundling system includes a base having an opening extending through the base; a barb supported by the base and extending at least partially across the opening; and a strap adapted to be advanced through the opening in a first direction. When the strap is displaced in a second direction opposite the first direction, the barb pierces a medial portion of the strap such that the barb contacts the base. The strap can include a longitudinal groove extending a length of the strap, and the barb has a piercing portion opposite a supported portion. The piercing portion can pierce the medial portion of the strap.

Cable bundling system

A cable tie is provided with a wedge disposed within a passage extending through a head. The wedge is compressed within the passage when tension is applied to the strap. As a result, the wedge compresses the strap against an inner surface of the passage to restrain the strap.

Cable tie having a wedge locking mechanism

A cable compression die assembly is used in connection with a compression tool for compressing a stranded cable prior to crimping. The cable compression die assembly includes a pair of cable compression die heads for receiving a stranded cable and a cable connector therebetween. The pair of cable compression die heads defines a hexagonal shaped opening therebetween and is adapted to substantially close the hexagonal shaped opening as the die heads move towards one another.

Range taking die set

This invention pertains to an adjustable cover for an electrical outlet box. The cover is configured having a generally planar mounting plate with a collar surrounding an opening through this mounting plate. An extension sleeve moves within this opening and adjacent the collar. At least one fastener is located adjacent the opening and is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The fastener operates a locking device that engages wedges against the extension sleeve when the fastener is in the locked position and disengages wedges against the extension sleeve when the fastener is in the unlocked position.

Two-gang adjustable mud ring

An electrical contact terminal for an electrical connector generally includes a main contact body, a cantilevered portion extending upwardly from one end of the body and a stiffener extending the entire length of the main contact body for providing rigidity to the main contact body.

One-piece push-in electrical contact terminal

A contact terminal is useful as an electrical disconnect. The contact terminal is generally of one-piece construction having a main body and a portion thereof cantilevered from this main body. This cantilevered portion is configured with a wire receiving apparatus so as to receive the wire therein and allow the wire to make both mechanical and electrical engagement with the contact terminal. The contact terminal is also configured with an embossment or stiffener adjacent the junction of the main body and the cantilevered portion so as to provide rigidity to the cantilevered portion when this portion is subject to a wire withdrawal force.

Electrical male contact terminal

A crimp die set for use in a crimping tool is provided, including: a rotating crimp die having a plurality of differently sized male die parts; and a stationary female crimp die having a plurality of differently sized female nests which correspond to one or more of the plurality of male die parts, wherein a rotation of the rotating crimp die permits different crimping action to accommodate different terminal and wire sizes.

Rotational crimp die

Music playing apparatus for playing selected musical notes in accordance with a selected rhythm pattern. A rhythm pattern is selected having a multiplicity of intervals. The rhythm pattern is repetitively reproducible and musical notes played at any interval within the rhythm pattern may be selectively played as either an unaccented note or as an accented note. Selected musical notes are played at each interval within the rhythm pattern and the pitch of a selected note is determined. The pitch of a selected note is within a predetermined range of octaves in the chromatic scale and this range of octaves may be selectively extended. A tone generator generates audible musical tones in accordance with the established rhythm pattern, the selected musical notes, and the octave band within which the selected musical notes are found.
