Adapter for cable hanger
An adapter for a plurality of cable hangers includes: first, second and third mounting panels, each mounting panel including a round mounting hole, the mounting panels serially attached to each other at edges thereof, each mounting panel being disposed at an oblique angle relative to its adjacent mounting panels; a base attached with the first and third mounting panels; wherein the base includes features for mounting the adapter to a mounting structure; and wherein the adapter is a monolithic structure formed of a polymeric material; and further comprising projections on the mounting panels located and configured to limit rotation of a cable hanger mounted in one of the mounting holes.
1. An adapter for a plurality of cable hangers, comprising:
first, second and third mounting panels, each mounting panel including a round mounting hole, the mounting panels serially attached to each other at edges thereof, each mounting panel being disposed at an oblique angle relative to its adjacent mounting panels;
a base attached with the first and third mounting panels;
wherein the base includes features for mounting the adapter to a mounting structure; and
wherein the adapter is a monolithic structure formed of a polymeric material; and
and further comprising projections on upper surfaces of the mounting panels and extending away from the base, the projections located and configured to limit rotation of a cable hanger mounted in one of the mounting holes.
2. The adapter defined in claim 1 , wherein the projections are mounted at vertices between (a) the first and second mounting panels and (b) the second and third mounting panels.
3. The adapter defined in claim 1 , further comprising three support panels, wherein each support panel is mounted generally parallel with a respective mounting panel.
4. The adapter defined in claim 1 , wherein the mounting holes are nominally ¾ inch in diameter.
5. The adapter defined in claim 1 , wherein the oblique angle is between about 130 and 155 degrees.
6. The adapter defined in claim 1 , wherein the features for mounting comprise slots.
7. The adapter defined in claim 1 , wherein the base comprises two base segments.
8. The adapter defined in claim 7 , wherein the base segments comprise angled segments.
