By providing at least two integrated components, an outer housing and an inner sleeve member, with the inner sleeve member being securely mounted to the outer housing in a manner which prevents its separation from the housing, an efficient, easily manufactured and assembled cable connector is realized. In the preferred embodiment, the inner sleeve member is press fitted into the housing in order to provide the desired secure, integrated affixation of these components. Furthermore, the inner sleeve member is constructed in a generally hollow cylindrical shape with at least two arm members integrally formed therewith, each of which angularly slopes inwardly from the cylindrical wall of the sleeve member, and includes a distal end portion which is angularly disposed relative to the arm member in at least one direction and preferably in two directions.

A device for connection between the ends of tubes (2) protecting one or more cables (9) and a box (4), has a flexible sheath (3) that makes it possible, at the exit from the tubes (2), to connect the cables (9) coming from the tubes (2) to the box in providing for the protection of the said cables (9) and enabling the moving away of the box (4) to be accessed.

A duplex electrical fitting having an improved arrangement on the trailing end for attaching electrical cables thereto. A connector body includes a leading opening, a midportion, two trailing openings, and a sidewall. Two open channels are provided in the sidewall on the trailing end of the connector, one open channel into each trailing opening. Each of the open channels extends from the trailing opening to the midportion of the connector body. Each of the channels includes a bridge adjacent the trailing opening which bridges each of the open channels. Each of the bridges is adapted to receive a tandem tang secured thereto. The tandem tangs include a common middle section and a leading tang and a trailing tang extending therefrom. Cable grabbing ends are provided on both the leading and trailing tangs. The leading and trailing tangs extend from outward of the connector body into the open channel. The tangs are of substantial length and are cantilevered over such a distance so as to enable easy insertion of cable within the trailing opening. The open channel permits additional space for flexing of the tangs of the tandem tang to further ease insertion of cables into the fitting. Bend lines on the leading and trailing tangs direct the cable grabbing ends toward an inserted cable and thereby hold the cable against the bottom of the open channel.

A cable sealing device (10) includes a member (14) includes an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted into a cable receiving aperture. The member includes a first wall (16) and a second wall (18) spaced apart from the first wall to partially define a cavity (20) between the walls. Each wall includes a cable receiving slot (e.g., 22, 24) formed in the wall. Each wall is deformable away from the respective slot to accommodate a respective cable portion (e.g., 26, 28) extended through the slot so that the wall is biased around the cable portion to minimize any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot. The slots in the respective walls cooperate to provide a redundant seal around a cable portion (30) passing through the member.
