20090256124 | DEVICE FOR LAYING CABLE IN A CONDUIT - The device for installing a wire in a conduit of the type with thin walls and ribbed, comprises in particular a support sleeve suitable for preventing a radial expansion as well as a lengthening of a portion of said conduit above ground. | 10-15-2009 |
20100178020 | Optical Waveguide Assembly, Storage Device, And Method For Installing An Optical Waveguide - An optical waveguide assembly is described that comprises a storage device having a housing ( | 07-15-2010 |
20110248227 | PROTECTION FOR A BUCKLING DETECTION HEAD - The buckling detection head is completely encapsulated in an encapsulating material, thus making it possible to protect the emitting and receiving surfaces of the cells for emitting and receiving light signals. This arrangement provides a slot in which the absolutely smooth cable passes, making it easier to clean the head and protect the cells. Other advantages of this arrangement are also described. | 10-13-2011 |
20130277629 | Method for Laying a Plurality of Successive Sections of Cables in Order to Form a Cabled Connection of Great Length - A method for laying a plurality of cable sections to be successively positioned in series in a buried duct, according to a flowing-pushing method using a pressurized fluid. The different cable sections are successively introduced into the duct in a single entry point comprising a laying device notably comprising an orifice for introducing a pressurized fluid, a cable section entirely introduced into the duct is pushed towards the position which it should occupy in the duct, only by the pressure of the fluid introduced by said laying device and when a cable section has reached his final position in the duct, an opening is made in the duct near to the rear of the cable section. | 10-24-2013 |

20120267590 | Process, Pig and Pressure Housing for Laying an Elongated Element - A method for laying an elongated element in a duct using a fluid injected under pressure through a fluid inlet in a pressure housing disposed at the elongated element inlet extremity of the duct. A mechanical drive placed before the pressure housing and the duct pushes the elongated element into the pressure housing and the duct. The method includes installing a first front end pulling pig at the front end of the elongated element and installing at least one subsequent pulling pig around the elongated element. The distance between each pulling pig is mainly constant. The method also includes applying the same maximum pressure drop to each pulling pig. The total pressure of the fluid injected being mainly equally shared by all the pulling pigs. | 10-25-2012 |
20130001490 | Apparatus for Retracting, Storing and Inserting an Elongated Element - An apparatus retracts, stores, and inserts an elongated element. The apparatus has a retracting unit for retracting a length of a pre-cut module through a window of a retractable cable, a storage unit for storing the retracted pre-cut module, and an inserting unit for inserting the retracted pre-cut module into a branch duct. The retracting unit, the storage unit, and the inserting unit are mounted on an assembly portion installed at a branch location. | 01-03-2013 |

20150183623 | Linear Driving Device With Load Dependent Clamping Capability - A linear driving device with load dependent clamping capability with a reference driving element and a moveable driving element. The linear driving device being arranged for driving an elongated element located between the reference driving element and the moveable driving element at least one of which is powered to apply an axial force (Fa) and a clamping force (Fc) to the elongated element to drive it. The device includes at least one pivoting lever attached to the reference driving element by a first rotation axis and to the moveable driving element by a second rotation axis. When the elongated element is driven, the at least one pivoting lever is arranged so that the magnitude of the clamping force (Fc) depends on a predetermined angle (a) defined between a perpendicular direction to the axial force (Fa) and a reaction force passing through the first and second rotations axes. | 07-02-2015 |
