First Claim
Patent Images
1. A receptacle arrangement for an end piece of a cable, said arrangement comprising:
- a cable including a cable sheath enclosing at least one signal conductor and an elongated stress-relief device, said cable having an end piece such that an end of the cable sheath at the end piece of said cable is sufficiently removed to expose at least one of said signal conductors and an end of said stress-relief device;
a container having an inlet orifice, such that the end piece of said cable is inserted into said inlet orifice, and an outlet orifice, such that at least one of said signal conductors exits through said outlet orifice;
a casting compound inside said container such that said casting compound surrounds at least one of said signal conductors, the end of said stress-relief device and at least a portion of said cable sheath in said container;
a spreading body that is at least partially inserted into the portion of said cable sheath in said container, said spreading body spreading out the end of said stress-relief device, said spreading body is dimensioned so that a diameter of the end of said cable sheath in said container is widened beyond the diameter of the inlet orifice of said container.

Abstract
A cable sheath of cable end piece is partially removed, exposing at least one signal conductor and the ends of an elongated stress-relief device. The cable end piece is inserted through inlet orifice into a container. A spreading sleeve is inserted into the end of the cable sheath, thus spreading out the ends of the stress-relief device and therefore widening the cable sheath beyond the cross section width (or diameter) of the inlet orifice.
