Abstract

A dismounting device for a cable for dismounting the cable from a wall includes a force receiving member, a sleeve member, an adapter member and a securing element. The sleeve member is mechanically connected to the force receiving member. Each of the adapter member and the securing element is mechanically connected to the sleeve member. The cable is connected to the wall via the adapter member in a mechanically dismountable manner. Furthermore, dismounting of the cable occurs by the flow of force from the adapter member via the securing element onto the sleeve member and from the sleeve member onto the force receiving member.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A dismounting device for dismounting a cable from a wall wherein the cable having a force receiving member, the dismounting device comprising:
a sleeve member that defines an interior surface that defines a groove configured to connect mechanically to the force receiving member of the cable;
an adapter member in form of a hollow cylindrical member with an inner sheath surface having a central bore about a longitudinal axis, the hollow cylindrical member including an outer sheath surface, which includes an external thread at a first end of the hollow cylindrical member, the adapter member further comprises an adapter member head at a second end of the hollow cylindrical member, wherein the adapter member is mechanically connected to the sleeve member and wherein the external thread is configured to be connected to the wall in a mechanically dismountable manner;
a securing element mechanically connected to the sleeve member; and
wherein the securing element, the sleeve member and the adapter member are mechanically connected to ensure the dismounting of the cable occurs by a flow of force from the adapter member by the securing element onto the sleeve member and from the sleeve member onto the force receiving member.

2. The dismounting device according to claim 1 , wherein the sleeve member is freely rotatable around the longitudinal axis via the groove defined in the interior surface of the sleeve member when the sleeve member is mechanically connected to the force receiving member.

3. The dismounting device according to claim 2 , wherein the sleeve member includes a sleeve member slit that is configured and disposed so that the sleeve member can be slid onto the force receiving member via the sleeve member slit by moving the sleeve member in a radial direction relative to the longitudinal axis so as to mechanically connect the sleeve member to the force receiving member.

4. The dismounting device according to claim 3 , wherein the groove defined in the sleeve member extends at an angle to the longitudinal axis such that when the sleeve member has been slid onto the force receiving member then the force receiving member projects into the groove defined in the sleeve member.

5. The dismounting device according to claim 2 , wherein the groove defined in the sleeve member restrains longitudinal movement of the sleeve member during free rotation of the sleeve member about the longitudinal axis.

6. The dismounting device according to claim 2 , wherein the adapter member is mechanically connected to the sleeve member; and wherein the adapter member and the sleeve member are freely rotatable together around the longitudinal axis after the adapter member is mechanically connected to the sleeve member.

7. The dismounting device according to claim 6 , wherein the adapter member can be slid onto the sleeve member in the longitudinal direction via the central bore before the adapter member is mechanically connected, to the sleeve member.

8. The dismounting device according to claim 6 , wherein the sleeve member defines an outer sheath surface, and wherein the inner sheath surface of the adapter member defines a shape configured to connect to the outer sheath surface of the sleeve member.

9. The dismounting device according to claim 6 , wherein the sleeve member defines a sleeve member external thread, and the sleeve member and the adapter member are positioned with respect to each other in a way that the sleeve member external thread and the adapter member external thread are easily accessible from the outside.

10. The dismounting device according to claim 6 , wherein the securing element is mechanically connected to the sleeve member via a force-fit connection; and wherein the securing element and the sleeve member are freely rotatable together around the longitudinal axis after the force-fit connection is achieved.

11. The dismounting device according to claim 10 , wherein the securing element includes a securing element internal thread; wherein the sleeve member includes a sleeve member external thread; and wherein the securing element can be screwed in the longitudinal direction via the securing element internal thread onto the sleeve member external thread to achieve the force-fit connection.
