Abstract
A bridge to enable intersection of a first cable raceway and a second cable raceway. The first raceway has a first raceway section and a second raceway section joined by the bridge. The bridge includes a body shaped to communicate with the first and second raceway sections of the first raceway to define a continuous cable pathway from the first raceway section to the second raceway section. The body has a tunnel in its bottom side shaped to permit the second raceway to intersect the first raceway, whereby cables situated in the respective raceways may be prevented from touching.
Claims20
A bridge for enabling intersection of a cable and wire raceway with another object, comprising:
- the bridge having a body with opposite ends shaped to cooperate with respective opposed ends of first and second raceway sections and the bridge is shaped to define a continuous cable or wire pathway from the first raceway section over the bridge to the second raceway section;
- the first and second raceway sections and the bridge having a bottom side;
- a fixture through the bridge oriented for receiving an intersecting obstacle extending across the bridge, so that the intersecting obstacle may intersect with the bridge while the bridge carries cable or wire between the first and second raceway sections without the cable or wire in the pathway at the bridge being blocked from passage in the cable or wire pathway by the intersecting obstacle.
A cable raceway assembly, comprising:
- a first cable raceway and a second cable raceway,
- the first raceway having a first raceway section and a second raceway section;
- and
- a bridge to enable intersection of the first and second cable raceways, the bridge including a body shaped to communicate with the first and second raceway sections of the first raceway, to define a continuous cable pathway from the first raceway section to the second raceway section;
- the body being shaped to permit the second raceway to intersect the continuous cable pathway, enabling cables situated in the first and second respective raceways to be prevented from touching.
