Abstract:
A modular cable protector can be removably connected in series with like cable protectors by complementary male and female end connectors. A number of openings extend downward along the peripheral walls of the adjacent end connectors to define a pattern of gaps and regions of contact between adjacent end connectors. Preferably, undercuts extend from the lower portions of the openings. A tool can be used to removably engage these openings and undercuts, thereby allowing a user to exert an upward force to disengage the end connectors on adjacent cable protectors.

Claim (Index 1):
A modular cable protector comprising:\n a body having an upper surface, opposing side ramps and opposing ends; at least one channel extending in parallel between the ends; male end connectors on at least one end of the cable protector having peripheral walls with upper edges; female end connectors on at least one end of the cable protector having peripheral walls with upper edges; said female end connectors removably engaging the male end connectors of an adjacent cable protector, thereby enabling cable protectors to be connected in series with the channels in alignment with the channels of an adjacent cable protector; and a plurality of openings extending downward from the upper edges along the walls between adjacent end connectors defining a pattern of gaps and regions of contact between the walls of adjacent end connectors.
