Mounting for oblong structures with an electrical shielding

Abstract

A mounting ( ) designed for oblong structures such as cables ( ), hoses or the like, which have an electrical shielding sheath ( ), that contains in the usage position of an electrically conducting insert ( ) that has a clamping finger ( ) and creates an electrical connection between the shielding sheath ( ) and the mounting ( ) is provided. The mounting ( ), under certain circumstances merely a wall opening or the like, possibly however also a complete cable screw connection with strain relief for the oblong structure—has a receptacle opening ( ) for the insertion and guiding through of the oblong structure or cable ( ) and especially also for the reception of the electrically conducting insert ( ), which for its part has a mounting ring ( ) and clamping fingers ( ) that project from it in the axial direction. On the outer side of the electrically conducting clamping fingers ( ) which function for the contact, a projection ( ) extends radially outwardly, at a distance from the free ends ( ) of the clamping fingers ( ), which function as a contact position, and at a distance from the mounting ring ( ) respectively. Through the projection ( ), the clamping fingers ( ) are bent or swung inwardly during the insertion into a correspondingly narrow receptacle opening ( ) by an amount corresponding to the dimension of these projections ( ) and the receptacle opening ( ), and thus make a secure contact on the oblong structure.
