Abstract
A cable fastening device is provided having a sector-shaped housing including detachable lower and upper housings having a hollow arcuate raised member at a corner with a longitudinal central hole formed in the arcuate raised member, an internal arcuate grooved rail adjacent to the hole, first teeth adjacent to the grooved rail, an internal circuit board; and a hollow positioning means having a top side, two sides, and a bottom side including a pair of first posts raised from predetermined positions of the top and bottom sides respectively. A pair of arcuate recesses are provided on the top and bottom sides respectively, each having second teeth, and a transverse cable passing hole formed therein. The first posts are inserted into the central holes. The arcuate recesses are slidably engaged against the grooved rail, and the second teeth are engaged with the first teeth so as to tooth-by-tooth laterally move a cable along the arcuate recesses in order to adjust cable direction. The device further includes an arcuate recessed portion having an aperture provided on one straight edge of the housing, a pivotal member having an arcuate raised side and a planar side, a second post formed on the arcuate raised side, and a spring on the second post. The second post is inserted into the aperture such that the pivotal member may pivot vertically a limited angle with respect to the attached device.
