A cable clip configured to receive a plurality of cables comprises a plurality of cable receiving openings each adapted to grip a cable located therein. The clip comprises a first member and a second member, each member including a part of each said opening. Each part of an opening in one of the members align with a corresponding part of an opening in the other of the members.
1. A cable clip configured to receive a plurality of cables, the clip comprising:
elongate first and second members that are joined together pivotally at respective ends thereof; and
a plurality of cable receiving openings adapted to receive and grip a cable located therein; wherein
the first and second members each include a flat surface extending laterally with respect to a longitudinal axis of the clip and at least one wall extending perpendicularly with respect to the flat surface and toward the other of the first and second members and in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the clip, and the cable receiving openings are formed in the walls;
a part of each cable receiving opening is formed in the wall of the first member and the wall of the second member, and the parts of cable receiving openings in the wall of one of the members align with the parts of cable receiving openings in the wall of the other of the members;
the clip further includes fastening means adapted to releasably fasten together the first and second members; and
the fastening means includes a fastener and a protrusion, the fastener extending from the other end of the first member with the fastener directly adjacent an end face of the second member when the cable clip is in a closed configuration and a free end of said fastener situated beyond the flat surface of the second member when the cable clip is in a closed configuration, and the protrusion extending from the other end of the second member, wherein the fastener releasably engages the protrusion and wherein the fastener includes a prise portion extending to one side of the fastener at the free end thereof along the longitudinal axis away from the hinge; wherein
the protrusion includes a free edge, a part of the fastener being adapted to ride over the free edge of the protrusion;
said protrusion includes two spaced apart sidewalls;
each side wall includes first and second angled surfaces, the first angled surface extending from the free edge to the second angled surface; and
the first and second angled surfaces lie at different angles to an axis extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the clip, the first angle being smaller than the second.
2. A cable clip according to claim 1 , said two spaced apart side walls have a connecting wall extending therebetween, said connecting wall comprising the free edge and the fastener being adapted to ride over the free edge.
3. A cable clip according to claim 1 , wherein the fastener comprises two spaced apart side walls connected together by a connecting wall, wherein the connecting wall comprises a rear edge, and wherein the clip is configured such that under the application of force in a first direction the rear edge rides over the free edge of the protrusion to fasten the fastening means and under the application of force in another direction the rear edge of the fastener rides over the free edge of the protrusion to release the fastening means.
4. A cable clip according to claim 3 , wherein the connecting wall of the fastener provides the prise portion.
5. A cable clip according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second members are joined together by a hinge.
6. A cable clip according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one cable receiving opening is substantially round in cross-section.
7. A cable clip according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one opening in at least one of the first and second members is substantially an elongated semi-circle.
8. A cable clip according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one cable receiving opening is lined with a compressible material.
9. A cable clip according to claim 1 , wherein a space between centers of adjacent openings corresponds to a space between centers of adjacent cable receiving ports.
10. A cable clip according to claim 1 , further including a lock configured to lock the clip in a closed configuration.
