Abstract: A new and useful clip is disclosed for securing an elongate member, or lather's channel, to a horizontal T-bar of a ceiling grid, conventionally used to form a drop ceiling. The clip comprises a body having a downwardly opening recess therein for permitting the body to be placed over the lather's channel, without removing the channel from the T-bar. The lather's channel is in a seated position in which the channel is received in the recess of the clip. The clip has clasps depending from the body configured so that as the body is moved toward its seated position, the clasps assume positions on opposite sides of the stem of the T-bar for clasping the T-bar and securing the clip to the T-bar. The clip further includes a spring finger formed integrally with the body. The finger is engageable with the lather's channel as the body is moved to its seated position. The spring finger is moved from a relaxed condition to a sprung condition in which it exerts a spring force against the lather's channel to hold it within the recess of the clip.

Abstract: A rack for electrical equipment includes a base having a bottom wall, and a back wall extending up from the bottom wall at the back of the rack. The bottom wall has a plurality of fastener openings therein through which fasteners may be driven into a surface supporting the rack for securing the rack to the surface. A pair of legs extend up from the bottom wall of the base at opposite sides of the base adjacent the back wall of the base. A cover may be removably fastened to the base of the rack in a position where the cover extends forward from the back wall of the base between the legs of the rack and is spaced above the bottom wall of the base to form, in combination with the back and bottom walls of the base, an enclosure for electrical wiring and the like. Removal of the cover from the base provides ready access to the electrical wiring and the like and also the fastener openings in the bottom wall of the base for facilitating securement of the rack to the surface. The rack further includes optional bracing so that the rack is strengthened for use in areas prone to seismic occurrences.

Abstract: A fastener used to secure an object on a channel including a channel nut which may be entered into a slot in the channel and then turned about an axis of rotation to extend in a generally crosswise position relative to the slot for engagement of portions of the nut at locations generally adjacent opposite ends of the nut with edges of the channel. A retainer for the nut has a body and a flange integral with the body which may engage the channel at opposite sides of the channel slot for preventing the retainer from being pushed inwardly completely through the slot when the nut is turned to a crosswise position in the channel and when an object is being fastened to the channel. Resiliently deformable spring elements on the body of the retainer are so sized and arranged as to be engageable with the channel for holding the nut in its crosswise position against slippage lengthwise of the channel slot.

Abstract: A clip for securing conduit and the like to channel framing of the type comprising a pair of side flanges having outer margins formed with inwardly directed hook-shaped lips defining a slot extending lengthwise of the channel. Each lip and its corresponding flange define a recess between them extending lengthwise of the channel. The clip comprises a one-piece generally U-shaped clip member having a pair of legs with free ends. Feet at the free ends of the legs extend laterally outwardly from respective legs in opposite directions. Toes project from the feed and are spaced laterally from respective legs to define notches between the toes and respective legs. An integral protuberance projects laterally outwardly from the free end of each foot. The clip member may be inserted feet first through the slot of the channel from the outside of the channel to a position in which the toes of the feet are received in respective recesses of the channel with the lips of the channel received in the notches between the toes and the legs of the clip member. The toes are engageable with respective lips and the protuberances are engageable with respective flanges to prevent substantial swinging of the clip member in side-to-side direction with respect to the channel.
