Abstract
A conduit bracket lock system includes a constructional surface engagement element having radially projecting elements for nestingly resiliently engaging a conduit, the engaging elements comprising, at respective ends, an integral cover plate holding element having, in radial cross-section, a substantially circular profile. The system further includes a reverse curvature hinge integrally depending from, and resiliently biased toward, a non-engaging side of the engagement element and, proximally to one of the holding elements, the hinge defining, in radial cross-section, a substantially circular loop curving initially away from the engaging elements and away from the one proximal holding element and, at the end of its curvature, bending back towards the non-engaging side of the engagement elements, the hinge end terminating short of the non-engaging side to leave an open polar segment at the end of the hinge.
