First Claim
1. A cable support system, comprising:
- a cable support arm;
a first member secured to the cable support arm, the first member being adapted to be disposed to a first position relative to a second member and to prevent transverse displacement of the first and second members when the first member is displaced laterally to a second position relative to the second member; and
a movable pin adapted to block lateral displacement of the first and second members when the first member is displaced in the second position relative to the second member.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for supporting cables. In some embodiments, the cable support system comprises a first member and a movable pin. The first member may be secured to a cable support arm. The first member also may be adapted to be disposed against a second member. The second member may be secured to a movable device or a fixed member. The first member may be adapted to prevent transverse displacement of the first and second members when the first member is displaced laterally to a first position relative to the second member. The movable pin may be adapted to block lateral displacement of the first and second members, when the first member is displaced in the first position relative to the second member.
