ABSTRACT:
The wire clamp of this invention is fixed to a mounting board by resilient engaging portions that extend from a base at the end of a post and spread out in a mounting hole in the mounting board. While the wire clamp is thus secured, it holds wires in its wire receiving portions. The wires are supported at a predetermined interval on the mounting board. This wire clamp is easily mounted by pushing struts toward the post with one's finger tips. The pushed struts resiliently deform, pulling up the ends of beams, which descend toward the resilient engaging portions, until the beams are almost horizontally aligned along the mounting board. The resilient resistance of the beams is reduced accordingly, which facilitates the insertion of the resilient engaging portions. Since the post, the struts, the beams, and the wire-receiving portions almost form a square, the wire clamp is rigid, and can firmly secure the wires. If an impact load hits the wires or the wire clamp, either of the struts can bend to absorb the impact load. Consequently, this wire clamp has both rigidity and impact resistance. This wire clamp is particularly useful for holding anode wires from a cathode-ray tube.
