Abstract:
1. An apparatus for clamping one or more cables comprising: a first component and a second component, wherein the first and second components each have a main body, a cut out region, and a connector region, the main body of each component comprising a mounting hole and the connector region of each component comprising an opening; and wherein the two components are removably coupled by connecting together their respective connector and cut out regions, the connector region of each component being received by the cut out region of the other component such that the two components are oriented upside down relative to each other, the connecting regions and cut out regions being coupled such that the mounting hole of each component is aligned with the connector region opening of the other component to allow a threaded connector to be inserted into the mounting hole and through the connector region opening, and when the threaded connector is inserted through the mounting hole of at least one component and tightened, the main body of the at least one component bears on the respective connector region of the other component so as to maintain coupling; wherein the coupling of the first and second components results in a clamping force that is determined-by finger pressure and without the use of screws or a ratcheting mechanism, and wherein one or more cables can be securely held by finger pressure adjustment of the clamping force without damaging the one or more cables.
