CLEA'T FO'R ELECTRICf-WIRIN G.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent 1V0. 551,032, dated December 10, 1895. I
Application filed September 26,1895. Serial a. 563,752. (No model.)
f and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same;
My invention relates to improvementsin cleats for electric wiring; and it has for its general objecttoprovide a cleat which, a1-' though made in one piece, is adapted to receive and securely hold electric wires of differentdiametersb rWith the foregoing ends in view-the inventioxi will be fully understood from the followingdescription and claims when taken inconnection with the annexed d wings, in which 4 Figure 1 is a perspective view'lllustrating my improved cleat as connected to the wall of a building and holding two wires.
is a transverse section taken inabout the plane Fig. 2
indicated by the line as as of Fig. 1'. Fig. 3'is a side elevation, and Fig. 4:} is aperspective -view, of a modification. e
. Referring by letter to the said"d1'awings,-A indicates my improved cleat, which isfshown.
in the form usually employed for house-wiring purposes, This cleat A is formed in one piece of porcelain-clay or other vitreous orother material, and it is provided 'at suitable points withlholesvfoi'r the passage of attachin g-screws'l (r-or is otherwise adapted for attachment' to a support, and is "also 'provided at endsnr atnther liit b elw i b t (more or. l ess') wing-receiving i'ecess'esfB, as"
better shownin'Figs. 1 and2. Thesaid recesses B, of which two are preferably formed 7 in each cleat are tapered or reduced in width toward theirinner. ends and are preferably curved or'pitched downwardly, as shown, and
they have their walls'dentatedfin such a manof difierent diameters against casual lateral movement or displacementga'nd also against casual longitudinal or endwise movement.
Sucltdentation by preference consists in the provision of the transverse teeth h on one wall of therecesses, which are adapted to hold the sman; cost.
Wires against casual displacement, and the against casual longitudinal or endwise movement.
In using my improved cleat it is first fas-- tened to a wall or other support by the screws a or other suitable means, and the wires are pressed laterally into the recesses B through the outer ends thereof until they bind, when, I
as will be readily observed, they will be secu'relyheld against lateral outward movement by, the teeth I) and against casual longitudinal 'movem'ent'by the teeth 0. It will also be observed that by virtue of the recesses B being taperedor' reduced in width toward their inner ends wires of various diameters within the capacity of the said recesses may be held as securely as those of the diameter illustrated.
When desired, the recesses B may be proljyided with transverse teeth b only; but I generallyprefer to provide themwith both kinds of'teeth b o, as they are then adapted to hold the wires against casual lateral displacement, and also'against casuallongitudinal movement.
A cleat such as above described, while adaptedto securely hold one or. more wires, is yer'y simple and may be provided very cheaply, sinceitmay be cast or otherwise formed in one piece of porcelain or other vitreous substance, which is easily obtainable at "j As is obvious, the cleats vmay be madewith but a'single-wire recess when but one wire is v to be held,
In Fig. 4 of the drawings I modified form of cleat A, which, like that shown in'Figs. 1 .to 3, may be easily and This cleat A is provided at its ends or at other suitablepoints with two (more or less) wire- .receiving recesses B. "tapered or reduced in width toward their in- These recesses .13 are ferent diameters against casual displacement.
In using the said modified form of cleat it is first-fastened to 'a wall or other support, and aftf'eij the wires are drawn tightly they are have shown a cheaply formed in one piece of porcelain-clay.
may be manufactured at a much less cost than the cleat A and is adapted in some cases to hold wires, as well as the said cleat A.
lieth forms of my improved cleat may be provided with one, two, or more wire-receiving recesses, and being adapted to be formed in one piece and to hold wires without the aid of an y fasten ing devices it will be observed that they may be 1n'odueed and sold very cheaply and that wires may be secured in them with but a minimum amount of l rou blc', which is a desideratum.=
It will further be observedthat when desired two or more wires of dillerent diameters ma be secured and held apart in each of the recesses of my improved cleat.
Having described my invention, what I claim isp 1. As a new article of manufacture, a clcat -for electric wiring having a wire receiving recess tapered or reduced in width toward its inner end and having one of its walls d en tated so as to hold a wire, substantially as specified.
L. As a new article of manufacture, a cleat for electric wiring, havi ng' a wire receiving recess tapered or reduced in width ttnvard its inner end and havingits walls dentated so as to hold a wire against lateral and ltme'itudinal or endwise movement, substantially as specified.
3. As a new article of manufacture, a clea't for electric wiring formed in one piece and having'a wire receiving recess curved and lapered or reduced. in width toward its inner end and having its walls dentated so as to hold a Wire against lateral and longitudinal or endWise displacement, substantially as specified.
at. As a new article of manufacture,a cleat for electric wiring formed in one piece and having the wire receiving recesses l 3, tapered or reduced in width-toward their inner ends and provided on one wall with the transverse teeth Z), and on their other wall with longitudinal teeth 0, substantially as and for the purpose set forth,
' 5. As a new article of manufacture, acleat for electric wiring formed in one piece and having a Wire-receiving recess tapered or reduced in width toward its inner end and curved orpitehed downnvardly, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I al'tix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
