Patent ID: 7476817

Claim:
A cable connector for securing a cable in a wall aperture comprising: a. an elongated body extending between an insertion end and an opposing receiving end, the body having (1) an outer body surface with an at least substantially circular circumference, and (2) an opposing inner body surface surrounding an inner body passage extending from the insertion end to the receiving end, wherein the body is formed of a series of elongated body sections joined at or adjacent the insertion end and adjacently extending toward the receiving end, with body slots being defined between the adjacent body sections, b. at least one resiliently flexible elongated leg extending outwardly from the outer body surface, the leg having: (1) a leg base affixed to the body at or adjacent the insertion end, the leg extending therefrom toward the receiving end to terminate in a leg tip, (2) a inner leg surface facing toward the longitudinal axis of the elongated body and an opposing outer leg surface, wherein the outer leg surface includes a leg channel defined therein, the leg channel being oriented at least substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the elongated body; c. at least one resiliently flexible elongated prong extending inwardly from the inner body surface, the prong having a prong base affixed to the body at or adjacent the receiving end, the prong extending therefrom toward the insertion end to terminate in a prong tip, d. a sleeve having an inner sleeve surface surrounding an inner sleeve passage, wherein: (1) the sleeve has sleeve ridges defined along the inner sleeve passage, and (2) the sleeve is fit over the receiving end, with: (a) the receiving end, and (b) at least a portion of the body sections, being fit within the inner sleeve passage with the sleeve ridges being fit within the body slots, whereby: i. the insertion end of the body may be inserted into a wall aperture within a wall to situate the wall within the leg channel, and ii. a cable may be inserted into the inner body passage at the receiving end of the body to have the prong engage the cable therein.
