T. A. DISSEL. I CABLE SUPPORT.
APPLICATION TILED JULY 15,1911.
pg 0,9 9, 1 Patented Mar. 26, 1912,
THEODORE AUGUSTINE DISSEL, OF BOSTON. MASSACHUSETTS.
To all whom it may concern- Be 11; known that I, 'lnsonoat: A. 1)lSSl-IL,
, a citizen of the ['nite'd States. residing at Boston, in the county ofhutlolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in (able-Supports.
of which the following is a full. clear. and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it ap 'iertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to cable supports. and withre'gard to the more spccitic features thereof, to supporting clips adapted to support-telephone cables and the like from span wires extending from pole to pole.
.- One of the objects of the present invention to provide'a simple. and practical dc- \'1ce of the above character which is easily applied and securely holds the parts uft as seinbled relation. J
Another-ob1ect is to'proride a cable sup fiortwhich will be cheap to manufacture and durable in construction.
Other objectsuyill be in part obvious and in part pointedout hereinafterl The inventionaccordingly consis in the features of construction, combinations of elementsznid varrangementof parts' which willbe exemplified in the construction herein= after set. forth, and the scope of the application of which willbe indicated in the following claim. v
' In the accompanying drawing. where-in is shown one of various modifications of my invention, Figure l is a side view showing the cable support. as manufactured; Fig. 2 is a similarview showing the device applied to a span wire; Fig. 3 is'an end view of Fig. 1; and Fig. 4 is an end view of the support in theposition shown in Fig. 2.
Similar reference characters refer to similarparts throughoutthe several views of the drawing. Referring to the accompanying drawing in detail, 1 denotes the body portion of the cable support, which is preferably stamped from semi-resilient sheetmetal a nd bent into helical or spiral form, asshown in Fig. 1. The ends of this loop member are spaced apart lengthwise and bent back upon themselves to extend downwardly to form flat hook portionsfl which preferably meet from .the same side, as shown in Fig. 3. After CABLE-SUPPORT.

Application filed July 15, 1911. Serial No. 638,772.
the. support at substantially the point 4 lie flat upon the span wire 3 as shown in Fig. The ends of the hooks are then squeezed together or clamped around the span wire as shown in Figs}: and 4. thus holding the loop in place and pre\-'enting excessive wear ol the parts as might,otherwise occur due to the sharp edges of the support. The loop or body portion of the support is preferably curred in cross-section. as shown in Figs. -1 y and 2. to present a rounded surface upon which the supported cable may rest and also present strength and rigidity to the device. The operation or method of using a device of this character. as is well known to those familiar with the art. is substantially as follows :.-\tteithe span wire is strung from pole to pole the cable supports are attached thereto at regular intervals by passing the same upwardly until the wire is below the open ends of the hooks. The supports are then cri'mped in position to prevent any longitudinal movement thereof as the cable is drawn through the same. It will be noted that during this step the curved supporting ordinary pliers usually carried by linemen 90-- may be sufficient.
As many changes could be made in the above construction and many apparently widelyditl'erent embodiments of this invcn tion could be made without. departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all mat-. ter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a lin iiting sense. It is also to be understood that the language used in the following claim is intended to cover all of the generic and specific features of the invention herein described and all statements of the scope of the invention, which, as a matter of language, might be said to fall therebetween.
Having described my inventiomwhat I claim as new and'desireto secure by Letters Patent is:
' In combination with a supporting .span wire, a device of the character described comprising an integral piece of sheet metal bent,-
