Abstract
Elongated components such as electrical wiring, electrical cables, piping, rods, ropes, and steel cables are mounted in place, for example, in an aircraft body, by a mounting device that has at least two mounting sections. At least one, preferably both mounting sections are provided with component holding channels. When the two mounting sections are held together they form a block in which the components are held in the respective through-going channels. The mounting block is locked to a support, such as a wall member. The closing and thus the connection of the two mounting sections to each other and the clamping of the elongated components in the channels as well as the locking of the device to the support is accomplished by a mechanism that performs all three functions. In one embodiment the mechanism includes a connecting bolt holding at one end an expander dowel and on its threaded other end a clamping nut, whereby the expander dowel is expanded by a pulling action. In another embodiment the expander dowel is expanded by a pushing action resulting from the connecting and clamping of the two mounting sections to each other by one or two spring bails.
