Retention device for flexible cables

Retention device (100) for a flexible cable (F);

• said device (100) having a longitudinal axis (X) and comprising:
• a perimeter wall (2) that defines an axial cavity (1) intended to house said flexible cable (F);
• two axial openings (11) disposed at the ends of said perimeter wall (2) and in communication with said axial cavity (1);
• at least two radial openings (12, 13) in said perimeter wall (2) extending parallel to the longitudinal axis (X) and in communication with said axial cavity (1);
• said at least two radial openings (12, 13) comprising a first radial opening (12) and at least one second radial opening (13);
• a slot (14) obtained in said perimeter wall (2) and disposed between, and connecting each of, said at least two radial openings (12, 13) so as to have a continuous radial opening extending between the two axial openings (11), in such a way that the flexible cable (F) can be inserted in the radial openings (12, 13) and in the slot (14), in a zigzag configuration;
• first fastening/unfastening means (3) disposed in said perimeter wall (2) to fasten/unfasten the device (100) with another device (100);
• wherein the retention device (100) further comprises:
• second fastening/unfastening means (3) disposed in said perimeter wall (2) with an angular spacing in a circumferential direction around the perimeter wall (2) from said first fastening/unfastening means (3), and
• third fastening/unfastening means (3) disposed in said perimeter wall (2) with an angular spacing in a circumferential direction around the perimeter wall (2) from said first fastening/unfastening means (3), and from said second fastening/unfastening means (3), in such a way that a retention device (100) can be fastened to three retention devices (100) in different mounting configurations,
• wherein said perimeter wall (2) comprises at least:
• a) a central portion (10) placed along said longitudinal axis (X) and defining said first radial opening (12),
• b) a first and a second end portion (20), respectively placed along said longitudinal axis (X) and opposite each other with respect to the ends of said central portion (10), each of said first and second end portions (20) defining one of said second radial opening (13),
• characterized in that
• said central portion (10) and said end portion (20) of said perimeter wall (2) have a “C”-shaped cross-section with the first radial opening (12) of said central portion (10) being rotated by 180° around the longitudinal axis (X) with respect to said second radial openings (13) of the first and second end portions (20).
