Mounting assembly and kit for a mounting assembly
A mounting assembly for mounting a cable on an electrically conductive structure comprises a mounting bracket and a cover mounted on the mounting bracket and movable with respect to the mounting bracket between a bracket mounting position and a cable mounting position. The mounting bracket has a mounting element receptacle and a cable holding device receptacle. The mounting element receptacle receives a mounting element that attaches the mounting bracket to the electrically conductive structure. The cable holding device receptacle receives a cable holding device that holds the cable. The mounting element receptacle is accessible from a cover side of the mounting bracket and the cable holding device receptacle is covered by the cover in the bracket mounting position. The mounting element receptacle is covered by the cover and the cable holding device receptacle is accessible from the cover side of the mounting bracket in the cable mounting position.
1. A mounting assembly for mounting a cable on an electrically conductive structure, comprising:
a mounting bracket having a mounting element receptacle and a cable holding device receptacle, the mounting element receptacle receiving a mounting element that attaches the mounting bracket to the electrically conductive structure, the cable holding device receptacle receiving a cable holding device that holds the cable; and
a cover mounted on the mounting bracket and movable with respect to the mounting bracket between a bracket mounting position and a cable mounting position, the mounting element receptacle is accessible from a cover side of the mounting bracket and the cable holding device receptacle is covered by the cover in the bracket mounting position, the mounting element receptacle is covered by the cover and the cable holding device receptacle is accessible from the cover side of the mounting bracket in the cable mounting position.
2. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket and the cover are slidable relative to each other.
3. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a guiding device that guides a sliding movement of the cover with respect to the mounting bracket between the bracket mounting position and the cable mounting position.
4. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket has a plurality of mounting element receptacles and all of the mounting element receptacles are accessible from the cover side of the mounting bracket in the bracket mounting position.
5. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket has a plurality of cable holding device receptacles and all of the cable holding device receptacles are accessible from the cover side of the mounting bracket in the cable mounting position.
6. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mounting element receptacle is a through-hole extending through the mounting bracket.
7. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the cable holding device receptacle is a through-hole extending through the mounting bracket.
8. The mounting assembly of claim 7 , wherein the mounting bracket has a plurality of cable holding device receptacles and all of the cable holding device receptacles are through-holes extending through the mounting bracket.
9. The mounting assembly of claim 8 , wherein the cover has a plurality of access holes that are each aligned with one of the cable holding device receptacles in the cable mounting position.
10. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the cable holding device receptacle is a socket for a cable clip.
11. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a latch adapted to retain the cover on the mounting bracket in the cable mounting position.
12. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the cable holding device blocks the cover from moving from the cable mounting position to the bracket mounting position when the cable holding device is mounted to the cable holding device receptacle.
13. The mounting assembly of claim 9 , wherein the mounting element is accessible through one of the access holes of the cover in the bracket mounting position.
14. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the cover forms an insulating barrier between the cable and the mounting element in the cable mounting position.
