"SUSPENSION EQUIPMENT"
This invention relates to a method of suspension equipment (such as lighting, heating, channeling or ventilation units) from a raised structural member (such as a roof, ceiling, spar, beam or joist). In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, a method of the suspension equipment from a raised structural member comprises providing a first eye on the raised member, providing a suspension cord with a loop at one end, passing the other free end of the member. suspension cord through the eye and through the loop, passing the free end of the suspension cord through a perforation of a fastening device of the type having twin perforations, at least one of which is associated with the medium of wedging preventing the removal in the direction opposite to the insertion, providing a second eye on the equipment to be suspended, passing the first end of the suspension cord through the eye in the equipment and passing the free end of the cord suspension through the other perforation of the aforementioned device. The first eye can be part of an accessory screwed in or bolted or welded into the raised structural member, or formed by a hole that exists or that is purposely drilled, through a beam, beam or joist. Also, the second eye can be part of an accessory screwed in or bolted or welded to the equipment to be suspended, unless the second eye can be formed by a hole, existing or purposely drilled, with a part of the lining of the team. According to another aspect of the invention, a method of the suspension equipment from a raised structural member comprises providing a suspension cord with a loop at one end, passing the other free end of the suspension cord around the raised member and through the loop, passing the free end of the suspension cord through a perforation of a fastening device of the type having twin perforations, at least one of which is associated by the wedging means preventing the withdrawal in the opposite direction to the insert, passing the free end of the suspension cord around the equipment to be suspended, and passing the free end of the suspension cord through the other perforation of the aforementioned device. In accordance with a further aspect of the invention, a method of suspension equipment from a raised structural member comprises providing an eye on the raised member, providing a suspension cord with a loop at one end, passing the other free end of the cord of suspension through the eye and through the loop, passing the free end of the suspension cord through a perforation of a fastening device, of the time having twin perforations, at least one of which is associated with the medium of wedging preventing the withdrawal in the direction opposite to the insertion, passing the free end of the suspension cord around the equipment to be suspended, and passing the free end of the suspension cord through the other perforation of the aforementioned device . On the contrary, in accordance with still another aspect of the invention, a method of the suspension equipment from a raised structural member comprises providing a suspension cord with a loop at one end, passing the other free end of the suspension cord around the member raised and through the loop, passing the free end of the suspension cord through a perforation of a fastening device, and the type having twin perforations, at least one of which is associated with the wedging means preventing the withdrawal in the direction opposite to the insertion, provide an eye on the team that is going to be suspended, passing the free end of the suspension cord through the eye in the equipment, and passing the free end of the suspension cord through the other perforation of the aforementioned device. The suspension cord may be a section of wire or cord of wire or other material, and the loop may be formed by folding back an end section and securing it by a flanged splint. After passing the free end of the suspension cord through the first perforation of the fastening device, a plastic sleeve can slide over the free end to the top or reduce the transmission of vibration from the equipment, especially the duct , towards the suspension cord. The suspension device of the type having twin perforations may be of the type described in GB-A-2210517, wherein both perforations are associated with the wedging means preventing withdrawal in opposite directions. Alternatively, the aforementioned device can be of the type described in Patent Numbers WO 95/30844 or WO 97/36123 which are provided by means whereby any wedging means can be released or removed positively, to allow adjustment of the section of the suspension system and in this way the adjustment of the - -
height position of suspended equipment. The adjustment can be made simply by moving the clamping device upwards. Alternatively, a tension tool, e.g. as described in Patent Number WO 91/04137, or a blind riveting tool, it can be used on the free end of the suspension cord to effect a fine adjustment, especially under load. According to still a further aspect of the invention, an equipment suspension case comprises at least one suspension cord with a loop at one end, and a fastening device of the type having twin perforations, at least one of the which is associated with the wedging means preventing the cord from being withdrawn in the direction posed to the insertion.
