Abstract:
An apparatus and method for handling cable motion within a machine comprises a housing having openings for routing cables therethrough. A bracket proximate one opening of the housing secures in a stationary position thereto a first segment of the cables while a reciprocating member proximate another opening of the housing secures thereto another segment of the cables. A spacer body within the housing facilitates routing of the cables within the housing by causing the cables to travel around the body. Separators are attached to groups of the cables to maintain a desired separation there-between and dividers are placed between separated groups of cables to prevent excessive friction therebetween.

Claim (Index 18):
A method comprising:\n providing a plurality of cables; affixing a first segment of each of the plurality of cables to a stationary bracket; affixing a second segment of each of the plurality of cables to a reciprocating bracket; disposing a first subset of the cables around a first side of a spacer; disposing a second subset of the cables around a second side of the spacer; attaching a first separator to the first subset of cables to maintain a first separation between the first subset of cables; attaching a second separator to the second subset of cables to maintain a second separation between the second subset of cables; and driving the reciprocating bracket to travel back and forth between a first position and a second position.
