  "title": "Noise absorber and case for noise absorber",
  "abstract": "A case for a noise absorber including a first case member and a second case member. The first case member includes a first cable guide and a second cable guide at opposite sides and a first core housing provided therebetween. The second case member includes a third cable guide and a fourth cable guide at opposite sides and a second core housing provided therebetween. The first case member and the second case member are interlocked and a hinge arrangement movably connects one of the sides of the first case member with one of the sides of the second case member. A magnetic core having a cable through passage can be housed inside the case to provide a noise absorber.",

    "9. The case for a noise absorber according to claim 4, wherein a length of said first core housing is less than a length of said second core housing.",
    "10. A noise absorber comprising: a case and a magnetic core housed inside said case, said magnetic core provided with a cable through passage and said case including: a first case member having first and second sides and including a first cable guide at said first side, a second cable guide at said second side, and a first core housing provided therebetween; a second case member having first and second sides and including a third cable guide at said first side, a fourth cable guide at said second side, and a second core housing provided therebetween; a means for interlocking which secures said first case member and said second case member; and a hinge arrangement movably connecting said second side of said first case member where said second cable guide is provided with said first side of said second case member where said third cable guide is provided.",
    "11. The noise absorber according to claim 10, wherein at least one of said first cable guide and said fourth cable guide is provided with at least one cable clamp portion.",
    "12. The noise absorber according to claim 10, wherein a length of said first core housing is less than a length of said second core housing.",
    "13. A noise absorber comprising: a case and a magnetic core housed inside said case, said magnetic core provided with a cable through passage and said case including: a first case member having first and said second sides and including a first cable guide at said first side, a second cable guide at said second side, and a first core housing provided therebetween; a second case member having first and second sides and including a third cable guide at said first side, a fourth cable guide at said second side, and a second core housing provided therebetween; and a first means for interlocking and a second means for interlocking which secure said first case member and said second case member, said first means for interlocking securing said first case member and said second case member partially, and said second means for interlocking securing said first case member and said second case member entirely wherein: said first case member comprises two hooks and two holes, with said two holes of said first case member being situated at each side of said first cable guide and said two hooks of said first case member being situated at each side of said two holes of said first case member, and said second case member comprises two hooks and two holes, with said two hooks of said second case member being situated at each side of said fourth cable guide and said two holes of said second case member being situated at each side of said two hooks of said second case member.",
