AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing cable glands are not cost-effective and require significant space for installation, and they do not adequately address sealing and strain relief, particularly for EMC boxes, while also failing to ensure safe and secure mounting.

Method used

A customer-specific cable gland design with a 60° deflection for space-saving routing, primary and secondary strain relief, and a dual-component sealing system using a hard and soft material with a Shore-D hardness difference for effective sealing and shielding, along with a locknut mechanism for secure mounting.

Benefits of technology

The solution provides a cost-effective, space-efficient, and secure mounting of cable glands with enhanced sealing and strain relief, ensuring dustproof and watertight connections while allowing for 10 A continuous current transmission.

Abstract

A fixing element (3) for fastening a cable to a wall and / or a bracket on a first of two sides of the wall and / or bracket, wherein the first fixing element (3) is a sealing element which has a base body through which the cable can be passed, is characterized in that at least one soft component for dust- and / or watertight sealing of the first fixing element (3) to a wall surface of the wall is arranged on a side of the base body facing the wall, so that the cable can be passed through both the base body and the soft component, wherein the Shore D hardness of the two components differs by at least 20%, and wherein the soft component is attached to the base body by means of an injection molding process.
