Automobile cable/conduit retainer

A retainer for an automotive conduit, comprising:

• a retainer body having
• a fastener portion configured to be mounted to an automobile body part,
• first, second, and third resilient arms for dampening conduit vibrations,
• a constricting insertion portion for insertion into the automobile body part, and
• at least one conduit receiving portion,
• wherein the retainer body is integrally molded of a plastic material,
• wherein the receiving portion comprises three or more engaging portions arranged circumferentially to engage the conduit, and are connected by the first, second and third resilient arms to the retainer body in a manner that, in the event of conduit vibrations, the first, second, and third resilient arms are configured to yield easily and elastically in all axial and radial directions and decouple vibration-induced forces from the automobile body part;
• part, and
• wherein the fastener portion comprises
• a top side and a bottom side, and
• at least one resilient portion disposed centrally at the bottom side for resting against an associated surface of the automobile body part, the at least one resilient portion configured such that the retainer body maintains a given spacing from the automobile body part;
• wherein the retainer body is approximately U-shaped, and comprises inner and outer legs and a connection yoke between the legs,
• wherein the first resilient arm is formed at an outer end of the outer leg and runs obliquely inward,
• wherein the second resilient arm is formed at an inside of the inner leg and runs obliquely outward,
• wherein the first and second resilient arms constitute the conduit receiving portion,
• wherein the third resilient arm is formed at an inside of the outer leg and runs as far as the inner leg and is approximately parallel to the connection yoke;
• and
• wherein a stop projection for the first resilient arm is formed at the inside of the outer leg of the U-shaped portion.
