Abstract

A mounting device (110) for an elongate flexible member extending through an aperture (102), comprising: an elongate body (130) having a longitudinal axis; an internal passageway passing through the elongate body (130) parallel to the longitudinal axis, for receipt of the elongate flexible member; a plurality of apertures (132) in the elongate body (130); an engagement member (136) in each apertures (132) and constrained to move along a displacement axis inclined to the longitudinal axis of the elongate body (130); a plurality of actuation members (142), each engaged with a respective engagement member (136), whereby displacement of the actuation member (142) in a first direction displaces the engagement members (136) outwardly to project beyond the periphery of the elongate body (130) and displacement of the actuations members (142) in a second, opposite direction displaces the engagement members (136) inwardly; and biasing means (182) biasing the actuation members (142) in the first direction.
