Description

By referencing the merging This application claims the benefits of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 644,353, filed May 8, 2024, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 683,339, filed August 15, 2024, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an angled anchoring installation component. Background Technology

[0002] Various systems use long, thin objects, such as cables, hydraulic lines, or wires, to connect components located in different locations. For example, during system installation and / or maintenance, a technician's task might be to physically route cables from cabinets, across bridging connectors, and along conveyors to motors.

[0003] Adhesive-backed cable tie mounts (CTMs) are typically used to secure elongated objects to mounting surfaces during cabling tasks. A CTM generally consists of a body (usually a cable tie) for attaching the object and an adhesive backing for bonding to the mount surface. To install a CTM, a release liner is peeled off from the adhesive backing, and the CTM is pressed into the desired position. The object is then typically attached to the CTM by looping the cable tie around it and passing it through the saddle-shaped portion of the CTM.

[0004] While individual CTMs offer flexibility in wiring, their small bonding area can present challenges. Technicians may need to clean the mounting surface and select a flat area for proper bonding. Furthermore, CTMs are prone to bonding failure (delamination) in high-stress areas (e.g., curves, sharp turns, moving parts) or when supporting heavy or rigid objects. These challenges can make it difficult to efficiently and safely route slender objects around bends using conventional CTMs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This document describes an angled anchoring mount for wiring elongated objects. In one example embodiment, the described technology and apparatus include an angled anchoring mount for guiding an object (e.g., a bundle of one or more cables) from a first route to a second route, wherein the first route has a first angular orientation, the second route has a second angular orientation, and the first and second angular orientations are different angular orientations (e.g., the second angular orientation is substantially perpendicular to the first angular orientation, the second angular orientation is rotated 90 degrees from the first angular orientation, and the second angular orientation is oriented at 90° to the first angular orientation).

[0006] In another example embodiment, the described technology and apparatus include a mounting member having a bundling connector configured to receive a strip for attaching an object to the mounting member, the bundling connector including an arm defining a notch configured to receive the strip therein. In yet another example embodiment, the described technology and apparatus include a mounting member having: a curved sidewall configured to guide an object from a first route to a second route along a route path; and a bundling connector configured to receive a strip for attaching an object to the mounting member, wherein the bundling connector includes an arm extending from the curved sidewall.

[0007] This invention is provided to introduce a simplified concept of an angled anchoring mount for wiring elongated objects, which is further described in the detailed embodiments below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0016] This document describes an angled anchor mount constructed for cabling slender objects. In one example, an angled anchor mount is used to guide an object (e.g., a bundle of one or more cables) from a first route to a second route, wherein the first route has a first angular orientation and the second route has a second angular orientation, the first and second angular orientations being different angular orientations (e.g., the second angular orientation is approximately perpendicular to the first angular orientation). The second angular orientation is relative to the first angular orientation. The angled anchor mount described herein reduces and / or eliminates the problems associated with the use of conventional adhesive cable tie mounts in high-stress locations and / or for bundling heavy / rigid slender objects.

[0017] In this specification, the numbers (e.g., traceability number) that begin with one or more reference numerals may be associated with the first reference figure number that marks the reference numeral. For example, reference numerals beginning with 2 (e.g., mounting 200, bundle connector 250) may indicate that the reference numeral was first referenced. Figure 2 The details of the search are tracked. Furthermore, the same reference numerals in different figures can identify the same or similar features, elements, and / or components.

[0018] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an angled anchoring mount 100 configured to guide an elongated object (e.g., guiding it along a route path from a first route to a second route). As described herein, mount 100 has specific applications in the industrial and manufacturing market 102 (e.g., for guiding cables from a first route to a second route). While this disclosure (including the figures) relates to these markets, mount 100 can also be applied to other markets for guiding objects from a first route to a second route, including but not limited to the healthcare market 104, the energy and utility market 106, the consumer and commercial market 108, the telecommunications and data infrastructure market 110, and / or the transportation market 112.

[0019] The industrial and manufacturing market 102 includes industrial automation and equipment, control panels, machine making, machinery, electrical enclosures, material handling systems (e.g., conveyors), cooling systems, heavy equipment (e.g., construction and mining machinery), agricultural technology (e.g., agricultural equipment), chemicals (e.g., chemical processing equipment), robotics (e.g., automated robotic systems), original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), machine parts, and machine systems. The healthcare market 104 includes medical devices and technologies, as well as dental devices and technologies. The energy and utilities market 106 includes renewable energy systems (e.g., solar, wind, and hydropower), power generation and distribution, industrial lighting, and commercial lighting. The consumer and commercial market 108 includes electrical appliances (e.g., household and commercial appliances), heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), and consumer electronics. The telecommunications and data infrastructure market 110 includes telecommunications (e.g., general telecommunications services), communications (e.g., communications systems and equipment), internet service providers (ISPs), cable television companies (CATV), data storage and processing infrastructure (e.g., data centers), broadband (e.g., broadband internet services), and data communications (e.g., data communications equipment). The transportation market 112 includes the manufacture and components for vehicles, trucks, automobiles, rail transport vehicles (e.g., trains), ships (e.g., vessels), aircraft, and aerospace.

[0020] Now for reference Figures 2 to 5 An angled anchor mount 200 (mount 200) is shown, configured to guide an elongated object from a first route to a second route. For example, the angled anchor mount 200 can be used to guide a bundle of one or more cables (e.g., cable 370) from a first route 502 to a second route 504. Thus, the angled anchor mount 200 is configured to bend the bundle (cable 370) around a corner. The first route 502 has a first angular orientation, the second route 504 has a second angular orientation, and the first and second angular orientations are different angular orientations (e.g., the second angular orientation is generally perpendicular to (e.g., rotated 90 degrees) the first angular orientation). In this configuration, the bundle (e.g., cable 370) enters at a first angle and exits the mount at an angle perpendicular to the first angle. In various embodiments, the first and second angular orientations can be at any angle relative to each other (e.g., any angle from 0° to 360° and all angles in between).

[0021] As used herein, the terms “object” and “elongated object” are used to refer to all types and forms of elongated objects, including but not limited to cables, wires, wire harnesses, hydraulic lines, pneumatic lines, optical fibers, textiles, plastics, pipes, tubing, conduits, elongated articles, and bundles of one or more of these articles. While cables (e.g., cable bundles) are frequently used as example objects in this specification and accompanying drawings, other types of objects may be substituted. Mounting components may be configured to receive strips for attaching objects to the mounting component. As used herein, the term “strip” is used to refer to all types and forms of binding materials, including but not limited to cable ties, plastic strips, metal strips, ropes, hemp ropes, wires, hook and loop fastening strips, etc. As used herein, the term “workpiece” is used to refer to machines, cabinets, housings, frames, frame rails, enclosures, vehicle chassis, panels, rails, support beams, cable routing channels, conveyor channel assemblies, etc. Workpieces may include mounting surfaces and / or mounting openings (e.g., slots, channels, holes, threaded holes), etc., defined therein.

[0022] For clarity, we use the Cartesian coordinate system, and... Figures 2 to 5 The coordinate system comprises three dimensions: the X-axis, the Y-axis, and the Z-axis. Each of the three axes is orthogonal to the other two. The X-axis and Y-axis define the horizontal plane, and the Z-axis is vertical. While the origin of the coordinate system can be placed anywhere on or near the component of the angled anchor mount 200, for descriptive purposes, unless otherwise stated, the axes of the coordinate system are always aligned in the same direction between figures. In some examples, reference may be made to dimensions, angles, orientations, relative positions, and / or movements of one or more components of the angled anchor mount 200 relative to the coordinate system. For example, the length of the angled anchor mount 200 may be defined as a dimension along the X-axis of the coordinate system, the width of the angled anchor mount 200 may be defined as a dimension along the Y-axis of the coordinate system, and the thickness of the angled anchor mount 200 may be defined as a dimension along the Z-axis of the coordinate system. Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the angled anchor mount 200 can position bundles (e.g., cables 370, objects 370) in the XY plane.

[0023] Mounting member 200 includes at least one bundling connector (e.g., bundling connector 250, bundling connector 450) configured to attach a bundle (e.g., cable 370) to mounting member 200. For example, the bundling connector is configured to receive strips (e.g., strip 380, strip 480) to attach an object (e.g., cable 370) to mounting member 200. Bundling connector 250 extends from at least one of the base portion 210 or the curved sidewall 220 of mounting member 200. In several embodiments, the bundling connector may be omitted.

[0024] The bundling connector 250 may define a first limiting portion 356 configured to restrict lateral movement of the strip 380 on the arm 352 along a first direction (D1). The bundling connector 250 may also define a second limiting portion 358 configured to restrict lateral movement of the strip 380 on the arm 352 along a second direction (D2), opposite to the first direction. This prevents the strip 380 mounted on the bundling connector 250 from slipping off. The bundling connector 250 may be a first bundling connector, and the mounting member 200 may include a second bundling connector 450. The second bundling connector 450 may be similar to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first bundle connector 250 is shown and described above. Therefore, the second bundle connector 450 can be configured to receive a second strip 480 to attach the cable 370 to the mounting member 200. Figure 4 As shown, the second bundling connector 450 may include a second arm 452, a second lower recess 454, a second upper recess 455, a first limiting portion 456, and a second limiting portion 458. The first limiting portion 456 can limit the lateral movement of the strip 480 on the arm 452 along a third direction (D3), and the second limiting portion 458 can limit the lateral movement of the strip 480 on the arm 452 along a fourth direction (D4), which is opposite to the third direction. This prevents the strip 480 mounted on the bundling connector 450 from slipping off. In various embodiments, the limiting portions may be omitted.

[0025] In all respects, the mounting component 200 includes a base portion 210 having a top side 212 opposite to a bottom side 214. It should be understood that the top and bottom sides are not limited to any particular orientation. Figures 2 to 4 In the illustrated aspect, a bundling connector (e.g., bundling connector 250, bundling connector 450) extends from the base portion 210. The base portion 210 may have a square shape (e.g., as shown in the figure). Figures 2 to 5 (as shown) or any other shape. In several embodiments, the base portion may be omitted. The base portion 210 may define a finger grip portion 202 configured for gripping by a technician during installation. The finger grip portion 202 extends from the top side 212 of the mount 200.

[0026] The top side 212 of the base portion 210 may define a channel (e.g., channel 216, channel 516) extending below an arm (e.g., arm 352, arm 452) of a bundling connector (e.g., bundling connector 250, bundling connector 450). This channel may be configured to guide a strip (e.g., strip 380, strip 480) through a recess (e.g., recess 355, recess 455) and below an arm (e.g., arm 352, arm 452) of the bundling connector (e.g., bundling connector 250, bundling connector 450). A person skilled in the art can assemble the strip to the mounting 200, for example, by passing a portion of the strip (e.g., one end of a cable tie) through the recess, wrapping the strip around an object, and tensioning the strip around the object (e.g., securing the tail of a cable tie to the head of a cable tie). In several embodiments, the channel may be omitted.

[0027] Mounting member 200 includes a curved sidewall 220 extending from base portion 210 (e.g., may be integrally formed with base portion 210). The curved sidewall 220 may be arc-shaped. The curved sidewall 220 is configured to guide cable 370 from first route 502 to second route 504 along a route path therebetween. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the aspects shown, the first route 502 is substantially perpendicular to the second route 504. The first route 502 has a first angular orientation, and the second route 504 has a second angular orientation. The first angular orientation and the second angular orientation are different angular orientations (e.g., the second angular orientation is substantially perpendicular to (e.g., rotated 90 degrees) the first angular orientation). Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the illustrated aspect, the base portion 210 is planar and defines a base plane, with the curved sidewall 220 extending substantially perpendicular to this base plane. In several embodiments, the curved sidewall may be omitted.

[0028] In various aspects, the curved (arc-shaped) sidewall 220 defines a wiring corner for guiding an object (e.g., cable 370) from the first route 502 to the second route 504. In various embodiments, the angled anchor mount is a right-angle (90° turn) anchor mount. The curved sidewall 220 can be configured as a wire bending radius guide that defines a wiring corner for wire routing. For example, the curved sidewall can conform to the standard minimum bending radius (e.g., one-inch radius (~2.54 cm radius)) for copper wire used in industrial automation applications.

[0029] exist Figures 2 to 5In the aspects shown, the bundling connectors (e.g., bundling connector 250, bundling connector 450) include arms (e.g., arms 352, arms 452) configured to support the cable 370 on the mounting member 200. In several embodiments, the arms may be omitted. For example, arm 352 may be configured to attach to the cable 370 via a strip 380 (e.g., a cable tie). Thus, arm 352 may be configured as a cable tie arm. Arm 352 may define at least one notch configured to receive the strip 380. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the aspect shown, arm 352 includes an upper recess 355 and a lower recess 354 (e.g., a second recess 354). Arm 352 may be spaced apart from the base portion 210 of mounting member 200 to define the lower recess 354. Arm 352 may extend from curved sidewall 220 (e.g., from the end 322 of curved sidewall 220).

[0030] exist Figure 4 In another example shown, arm 452 can be configured to attach to cable 370 via strip 480 (e.g., cable tie). Thus, arm 452 can be configured as a cable tie arm. Arm 452 can define at least one notch configured to receive strip 480. Figure 4 In the aspect shown, arm 452 includes an upper recess 455 and a lower recess 454 (e.g., a second recess 454). Arm 452 may be spaced apart from the base portion 210 of mounting member 200 to define the lower recess 454. Arm 452 may extend from curved sidewall 220 (e.g., from end 422 of curved sidewall 220).

[0031] The bottom side 214 of the base portion 210 may include a mounting portion 240 configured to attach the base portion 210 to the workpiece 590. The mounting portion 240 may include an adhesive portion 242 configured to adhere to a mounting surface 592 of the workpiece 590. The adhesive portion 242 may include a pre-applied adhesive strip (e.g., double-sided tape, double-sided tape foam, pressure-sensitive adhesive strip, etc.) covered by a release liner 241. To mount the mount 200 onto the workpiece 590, the release liner 241 is peeled off from the adhesive strip, and then the adhesive portion 242 is applied to the mounting surface 592 to adhere the base portion 210 to the mounting surface 595. In several embodiments, the adhesive portion may be omitted. In other aspects, the mounting portion 240 may include at least one fastener aperture (e.g., fastener aperture 244, fastener aperture 245) defined through the base portion 210 (e.g., from the bottom side 214 to the top side 212). The fastener orifice is configured to receive a fastener 296 to attach the base portion 210 to the mounting surface 592. In several embodiments, the fastener orifice may be omitted.

[0032] Mounting portion 240 may include any suitable structure to be mounted to workpiece 590, some additional examples of which include fasteners (e.g., blind hole fasteners, clamping fasteners, clamping portions, mechanical fasteners, T-nut fasteners for T-slot metal frames, masonry mounting components, push-mount components, swivel mounting components, arrow fasteners, fir-shaped fasteners, edge clamping mounting components, clamping fasteners, bracket portions, torsion fasteners configured to receive into slots in a track, welded short post mounting components, cable attachments, hose attachments), magnets, friction mating components, etc., and combinations thereof (e.g., fasteners and adhesive fasteners, adhesive fasteners and magnets).

[0033] In various aspects, the mounting member 200 includes a bundle retainer 260 configured to hold or accommodate a bundle of one or more objects (e.g., cable 370) during cabling. The bundle retainer 260 may be located at the center of the base portion 210 and may extend from the curved sidewall 220. The bundle retainer may include an extension (e.g., as a hook) extending toward the base portion 210. The bundle retainer 260 may be spaced apart from one or more bundle connectors on the mounting member 200. The bundle retainer 260 and the curved sidewall 220 may define a bracket 262 between them, the bracket 262 being configured to receive the cable 370. Thus, the bundle retainer 260 can function as a cable holding hook. The bundle retainer 260 is configured to retain the cable 370 in the bracket 262. In several embodiments, the bundle retainer may be omitted.

[0034] In this way, during the construction process (e.g., when a technician guides cables through the mounting), the bundle holder 260 can passively hold the object in place like a "third hand." For example, the bundle holder 260 can be configured to loosely hold the cables on the mounting until a technician applies one or more cable ties to the harness connector(s) to hold the cables in place. The technician can then loosen the cables placed on the curved sidewalls, allowing the technician to use both hands to gather additional cables for wiring, place cable ties to form bundles, and perform other functions.

[0035] Mounting member 200 may include at least one structural support (e.g., support member 243) configured to increase the strength of the bundle retainer 260 (wire retainer hook) and / or the curved sidewall 220. The position of support member 243 can guide a technician to position the wire on the appropriate side of the curved sidewall 220.

[0036] Now for reference Figures 6 to 7 An angled anchoring mount 600 (mount 600) is shown, configured to guide an object from a first path to a second path. Mount 600 may be similar to, except as described below, an angled anchoring mount 600. Figures 2 to 5 The mounting member 600 is shown and described above. Therefore, the mounting member 600 may include a base portion 610, a top side 612, a curved sidewall 620, a mounting portion 730, an arm 640, an upper recess 742, a lower recess 744, a first limiting portion 746, a second limiting portion 748, and a bundling connector 650. The arm 640 may extend beyond the edge 614 of the base portion 610. The arm 640 may have a length that allows a portion of a cable protector (e.g., a spiral wound portion, a plastic braid) to be fed below the arm 640, and in this way, the cable protector can be held in place. The mounting member 600 may also include a post 660 extending from the base portion 610 to a position adjacent to the bundling connector 650. The post 660 may be spaced apart from the curved sidewall 620 to define a channel 662 configured to temporarily hold an object (e.g., a cable) during the passage of an object through the mounting member.

[0037] In various aspects, one or more of the bundle connectors, base portions, curved sidewalls, or bundle holders of the mounting components (e.g., mounting components 100, 200, 600) are integrally formed from one or more suitable materials using one or more of injection molding, extrusion, additive manufacturing processes (e.g., fused deposition modeling (FDM), 3D printing), or other suitable processes. In various embodiments, one or more of the bundle connectors, base portions, curved sidewalls, or bundle holders of the mounting components (e.g., mounting components 100, 200, 600) may be assembled from individual plastic parts and fixed together by welding, solvents, adhesives, etc.

[0038] Examples of materials disclosed herein for use in angled anchoring installations include, but are not limited to, any suitable materials, including but not limited to metals (e.g., wires), polymers (e.g., polymeric materials), and / or composites. Suitable polymeric materials may include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyamide (PA), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyaryl ether ketone (PAEK), ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE), polyacetal (POM), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), UV-stabilized polyacetal (POMUV), acrylonitrile-styrene-acrylate (ASA), crosslinked thermoplastics, partially crosslinked thermoplastics, high-temperature resins, UV-resistant resins, other thermoplastics, and one or more copolymers, blends, or alloys thereof, as well as fiber-reinforced materials.

[0061] In the various aspects of the angled anchoring installation components described in this specification, designations such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish different descriptive objects and do not limit the position, order, priority, quantity, or content of the described objects. For example, taking "first restraining part" as an example, there may be one or more "restraining parts". Furthermore, objects modified by different designations may be the same or different objects. For example, if the described object is a "bundle connector", then "first bundle connector" and "second bundle connector" may be the same or different bundle connectors.
