Patent ID: 7162837

Claim:
In combination: a structural element; a structural member; and a bracket of integral construction connecting said structural member to said structural element and stabilizing the structural member against movement, said bracket comprising, in combination: a bracket base defining a bracket base opening receiving the structural element and including a bracket base surface bearing against the structural member at a first location on the structural member; a first connector portion extending away from said bracket base in a first direction and defining an aperture for interconnecting the first connector portion to a first stabilizing cable under tension; a second connector portion extending away from said bracket base in a second direction and defining an aperture for interconnecting the second connector portion to a second stabilizing cable under tension; and a first bearing element connected to said bracket base and including a first bearing element surface bearing against the structural member at a second location on the structural member, said first bearing element surface being angularly disposed relative to said bracket base surface and for transferring force from said bracket to the structural member to prevent relative rotation between said bracket and the structural member, said structural element comprising a hanger rod and said bracket base comprising a plate having a plurality of plate edges, said bracket base opening comprising a slot open at one of the edges and extending inwardly therefrom, said slot enabling the bracket to be slid in place on the hanger rod from a side of the hanger rod.
