ABSTRACT:
A two-component pivotal cable support includes a stationary clamp and a movable cradle mounted on the clamp for supporting a cable wherein the clamp is detachably connected to a stanchion of a boat. The movable cradle, which is pivotally mounted on the clamp, is formed with a curved, open channel portion that is arcuate in side elevation. This channel portion serves as a holder for supporting equipment, or, in the present example, a cable. The cradle includes an open frame with opposite sides joined by a cross member wherein the center of the cradle is exposed and the channel portion of the cradle is supported by perpendicular support posts. These perpendicular support posts can withstand excessive amounts of cable weight. The support posts join the cradle with the cross member midway between the frame opposite ends. A cylindrical spindle is perpendicular to the cradle and downwardly depends from the cradle. The stationary clamp includes a cylindrical receptacle for pivotally receiving the spindle, yoke and closure members for releasably joining with a stanchion, post or the like. Both the yoke and closure members have semi-circular recesses. The turning axis of the spindle is parallel with the central longitudinal axis of the stanchion. Counter-sunk recesses are in the closure member to accept screws as securement fasteners so that the fasteners do not extend beyond the body of said members.
