Patent attributes
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to forming a seal around cables passing through an opening of a sealed enclosure in an efficient and cost-effective manner. In one embodiment, a cable sealing apparatus has a body including a plurality of grooves and a hinge. The body is foldable around the hinge to form a plurality of cable apertures from pairs of the grooves in a folded position. The body has a resilient material to form a seal around each cable disposed in a corresponding cable aperture upon being compressed by a force moving the body to the folded position. In another embodiment, a cable sealing apparatus has a body including a plurality of cable apertures each having a length. The body has a plurality of longitudinal slits each extending along the length of one of the cable apertures and disposed between the cable aperture and an external surface of the body. Each longitudinal slit is configured to be openable to receive a cable from the external surface of the body through the longitudinal slit into the cable aperture. The body has a resilient material to form a seal around each cable disposed in a corresponding cable aperture upon being compressed by a force transverse to a corresponding longitudinal slit.
