Patent ID: 7781684

Claim:
Gasket seal means for supporting a cable ( 4 ) in the wall opening ( 7 ) of a housing ( 1 ), comprising: (a) a pair of generally rectangular gasket sections ( 12 ; 13 ) formed from a compressible material, each of said sections having a planar longitudinal surface ( 23 ; 24 ) containing a transverse recess ( 40 ; 41 ) extending completely thereacross; (b) the cross-sectional configurations of said recesses being such that when said sections a displaced from a disassembled condition toward an assembled condition in which said planar surfaces are in contiguous engagement and said recesses cooperate to define a gasket opening ( 50 ) having a cross-sectional configuration that corresponds generally with the cross-sectional configuration of the cable; (c) at least one of said gasket sections having on its said planar surface adjacent the associated recess an integral projection ( 27 ; 28 ) that extends toward the other gasket section; (d) the planar surface of the other of said gasket sections having imperforate portions ( 127 , 128 ; 27 , 28 ) that are opposite said projections when said sections are in said assembled condition, thereby to compress said projections to seal the spaces between said planar surfaces adjacent said recesses.
