Hanger for mounting multiple cables
A cable hanger for securing cables to a supporting structure includes: a base panel having opposed ends; a pair of arms attached to a respective end of the base panel and having a free end; a pair of locking projections, each of the locking projections attached to a respective free end of the arms; a pair of gripping members, each gripping member attached with a respective arm or to the base panel, wherein the arms and locking projections are spread apart to enable insertion of a first cable between the arms, wherein the gripping members engage and grip the first cable, and wherein the locking projections are inserted into the aperture of the supporting structure; and at least one finger attached to and extending from one of the arms or the base panel, the finger configured to deflect and grasp a second cable against the arm or base panel.
1. A cable hanger, comprising:
a base having a first stacking feature;
first and second arms, each of the arms attached to a respective opposite edge of the base and extending generally perpendicularly to the base;
the base, the first arm and the second arm defining a periphery;
second stacking features attached to the first and second arms, the second stacking features configured to mate with the first stacking features to enable an identical second cable hanger to stack on the cable hanger;
at least one first cable gripping member connected with and extending from the first arm external to the periphery in a first direction generally perpendicular to the first arm;
at least one second cable gripping member connected with and extending from the second am external to the periphery in a second direction that is opposite the first direction;
a third cable gripping member mounted on and extending from the first arm within the periphery; and
a fourth cable gripping member mounted on and extending from the second arm within the periphery;
wherein the third and fourth cable gripping members are sized and configured to together grip a cable within the periphery.
2. The cable hanger defined in claim 1 , wherein the base includes a hole.
3. The cable hanger defined in claim 1 , wherein the at least one first cable gripping member is a plurality of first cable gripping members.
4. The cable hanger defined in claim 3 , wherein the at least second cable gripping member is a plurality of second cable gripping members.
5. The cable hanger defined in claim 1 , wherein the base, first and second arms, and first, second, third and fourth gripping members are formed as a unitary device.
6. The cable hanger assembly defined in claim 1 , in combination with at least one cable mounted in one of the first or second gripping members.
7. A cable hanger, comprising:
a base having a first stacking feature;
first and second arms, each of the arms attached to a respective opposite edge of the base and extending generally perpendicularly to the base;
the base, the first arm and the second arm defining a periphery;
second stacking features attached to the first and second arms, the second stacking features configured to mate with the first stacking features to enable an identical second cable hanger to stack on the cable hanger;
at least two first cable gripping structures connected with and extending from the first arm external to the periphery in a first direction generally perpendicular to the first arm, each of the first cable gripping structures configured to grasp a respective first cable; and
at least two second cable gripping structures connected with and extending from the second arm external to the periphery in a second direction that is opposite the first direction, each of the second cable gripping structures configured to grasp a respective second cable;
wherein the base, first and second arms, and first and second gripping structures are formed as a unitary device.
8. The cable hanger defined in claim 7 , wherein each of the first cable gripping structures comprises two first cable gripping members.
9. The cable hanger defined in claim 8 , wherein each of the second cable gripping structures comprises two second cable gripping members.
10. The cable hanger assembly defined in claim 7 , in combination with at least one cable mounted in one of the first or second gripping structures.
