Abstract
A vertical cable manager includes a base, an interconnected double-spine assembly topped by a top frame, and a pair of doors. The double-spine assembly is supported by the base. Each door is removably coupled at each lower corner to the base and at each upper corner to the top frame, thus permitting each door to be opened or hinged along either of its lateral sides or removed entirely. The double-spine assembly may support selectively repositionable mounting members, which may in turn support a large cable spool, a selectively repositionable shelf-mounted handle spool assembly, and various other cable management accessories.
Claims20
A lashing bar assembly for a vertical cable manager, comprising:
- a base attachable to a midsection member interconnected between side members of the cable manager, the base including a plurality of apertures or edge-situated recesses;
- a lashing bar, a first end of which is mountable relative to a first of the plurality of apertures or recesses and a second end of which is mountable relative to a second of the plurality of apertures or recesses, thereby forming at least one loop for cable management;
- and
- a tie, extending around the lashing bar and adapted to extend around a cable or wire, thereby lashing the cable or wire to the lashing bar.
A lashing bar assembly for a vertical cable manager, comprising:
- a base attachable to a midsection member interconnected between side members of the cable manager, the base including an edge portion having a plurality of recesses;
- a lashing bar, a first end of which is mountable relative to a first of the plurality of recesses and a second end of which is mountable relative to a second of the plurality of recesses, the lashing bar thereby forming a loop for cable management;
- and
- a tie, extending around the lashing bar and adapted to extend around a cable or wire, thereby lashing the cable or wire to the lashing bar.
A cable management accessory for a vertical cable manager, comprising:
- at least two midsection members, each configured to be interconnected between opposing side members of a vertical cable manager, each side member defining a longitudinal axis;
- and a lashing bar assembly, including a lashing bar, connected to a first aperture at or near a first of its ends to a first of the at least two midsection members, and connected to a second aperture at or near a second of its ends to a second of the at least two midsection members, such that the lashing bar of the lashing bar assembly extends in parallel to the longitudinal axes of the side members when the midsection members are interconnected thereto, thereby forming at least one loop for cable management.
