ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to cable binding technique and more particularly to a flexible bundle for binding the cables which bundle is structurally simple can be more effectively to bind the cables.
Typical bundle for binding the cables (as shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2
) comprises a lower portion
91
, an upper portion
93
combined together to form a space therebetween to receive the cables
97
. The lower portion
91
has a pair of male coupling plates
91
projected upward from two lateral sides and the upper portion
93
has a pair of female coupling plate
94
projected downward from the lateral sides so that they can be combined together in snap fitting. A glue layer
95
which may be double faced tape attaches to the bottom of the lower portion
91
and a peeling off paper
96
covers the outside of the glue
95
. When peels off the paper
96
, the bundle can be attached to a ground or flat surface. This type of bundle has at least several disadvantages set forth as follows:
a) if the male coupling plates
92
combining with the female coupling plates
94
is too loose, it will be break away on a kicking force and if the male coupling plates
92
combining with the female coupling plates
94
is two tight, it is difficult to dispose an additional cable
97
into the bundle,
b) the bundle is made of rigid plastic material which is very breakable to step upon. Once the upper portion
93
or the lower portion
91
is broken, it is very difficult to change a new one,
c) each of the above bundle has a certain length and can not bend over at a corner of a wall, but cut off to make a L-shape so as to expose a clearance,
d) a bundle can receive a certain member of the cables, if adds additional cable it must change a large sized bundle that is very inconvenient,
e) the manufacturing of the above bundle should use large sized mould which costs more, and
f) the outlook of the above bundle is too dull to be decorated.
SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The present invention has a main object to provide a flexible bundle for binding the cables which is structurally simple and is made of flexible material so as to be bended over at a corner of a wall.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a flexible bundle for binding the cables which has an arcuate top enabling the bundle against a kick of a stepping upon.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a flexible bundle for binding the cables which can bind more cables without changing a large sized one.
Further object of the present invention is to provide a flexible bundle for binding the cables which bundle has a nice outlook and is readily to produce at a low cost.
The present invention will become more fully understood by reference to the following detailed description thereof when read in conjunction with the attached drawings.
