Abstract
An adapter assembly for removably connecting two parallel cable protectors having side ramps in an adjacent side-by-side relationship employs a central member to bridge the void between the side ramps of the cable protectors. A number of cable protector connectors extend from the central member to removably secure the cable protectors to the central member.
Claims25
An adapter assembly for removably connecting two parallel cable protectors having side ramps in an adjacent side-by-side relationship, said adapter assembly comprising:
- a central member bridging the void between the side ramps of two cable protectors placed in a parallel, side-by-side relationship with predetermined spacing and having an upper surface extending between the cable protectors;
- and
- cable protector connectors extending from the central member to removably secure the cable protectors to the central member.
An adapter assembly for removably connecting two parallel cable protectors having side ramps in an adjacent side-by-side relationship, said adapter assembly comprising:
- a central member bridging the void between the side ramps of two cable protectors placed in a parallel, side-by-side relationship with predetermined spacing and having:
- (a) an upper surface extending between the cable protectors;
- and
- (b) tapered lateral edges complementing the side ramps of the cable protectors;
- and
- at least one base member having:
- (a) lateral arms extending beneath both cable protectors;
- (b) cable protector connectors on the lateral arms to removably engage the cable protectors and thereby secure the cable protectors to the base member;
- and
- (c) a central member connector to removably secure the base member to the bottom of the central member.
An adapter assembly for removably connecting two parallel cable protectors having side ramps in an adjacent side-by-side relationship, said adapter assembly comprising:
- a central member bridging the void between the side ramps of two cable protectors placed in a parallel, side-by-side relationship with predetermined spacing and having:
- (a) an upper surface extending between the cable protectors;
- and
- (b) at least one track extending along the length of the bottom of the central member to hold cables;
- and
- a base member having:
- (a) lateral arms extending beneath both cable protectors;
- (b) cable protector connectors on the lateral arms to removably engage the cable protectors and thereby secure the cable protectors to the base member;
- and
- (c) a central member connector to removably secure the base member to the bottom of the central member, said central member connector having at least one track extending along the length of the central member to complement the tracks of the central member.
An adapter assembly for removably connecting two parallel cable protectors having side ramps in an adjacent side-by-side relationship, said adapter assembly comprising:
- a central member bridging the void between the side ramps of two cable protectors placed in a parallel, side-by-side relationship with predetermined spacing and having:
- (a) an upper surface extending between the cable protectors;
- and
- (b) a recess extending along the length of the bottom of the central member;
- and
- a base member having:
- (a) lateral arms extending beneath both cable protectors;
- (b) cable protector connectors on the lateral arms to removably engage the cable protectors and thereby secure the cable protectors to the base member;
- and
- (c) a central member connector to removably secure the base member to the recess in the central member, said central member connector having at least one track extending along the length of the central member to hold cables.
