A conduit attachment device is disclosed for use with a trapeze for providing for the placement and suspension of apparatus between existing structural members of an overhead structure. In one embodiment, the conduit attachment device includes a body having four sides formed of a continuous sheet with three bends in an open-ended rectangular box design. A fastening join joins two sides of the continuous sheet. A window including first and second substantially continuous U-shaped engagement surfaces adapted to form a friction fit with a conduit is located at one of the ends. Two sizes of threaded openings are located on opposite sides of the body for mating with two different sizes of threaded suspension rod. Another threaded opening is located in the body for mating with a set screw that further secures the conduit.

The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 1, wherein the first threaded opening comprises a size to mate with ⅜″ threaded suspension rod. 3. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 1, wherein the second threaded opening comprises a size to mate with ⅜″ set screws. 4. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 1, wherein the third threaded opening comprises a size to mate with ½″ threaded suspension rod. 5. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 1, wherein the continuous sheet comprises 10 gauge cold rolled steel. 6. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 1, wherein the fastening joint further comprises a welded joint mating the first side to the fourth side. 7. A conduit attachment device arrangement for use with a trapeze for providing for the placement and suspension of apparatus between existing structural members of an overhead structure, the conduit attachment device arrangement comprising: first and second conduit attachment devices, each of the first and second conduit attachment devices including: a body formed of a continuous sheet, the body consisting of first, second, and third bends that define first, second, third, and fourth sides forming an open-ended rectangular box having first and second ends, the first bend being at a junction of the first and second sides, the second bend being at a junction of the second and third sides, and the third bend being at a junction of the third and fourth sides, the first and third sides being substantially parallel, the second and fourth sides being substantially parallel;a welded joint mating the first side to the fourth side;a window formed in the second and third sides at the first end, the window including first and second substantially continuous U-shaped engagement surfaces adapted to form a friction fit with a conduit;a first threaded opening located through the first side, the first threaded opening adapted to mate with a threaded suspension rod of a first size;a second threaded opening located through the first side, the second threaded opening adapted to mate with a set screw;a third threaded opening located in the third side, the third threaded opening adapted to accept a suspension rod of a second size;each of the windows of the first and second conduit attachment devices coupled to respective ends of the conduit; andthe trapeze including first and second suspension rods, the first and second suspension rods being respectively coupled the first and second conduit attachment devices by one of the first threaded opening, a second threaded opening, and a third threaded opening of the respective first and second conduit attachment devices. 8. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 7, further comprising first and second relief openings located at the first bend, the first and second relief openings being respectively adjacent to the first and second threaded openings. 9. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 7, further comprising third and fourth relief openings respectively located at the second and third bends adjacent to the third threaded opening. 10. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 7, wherein the first threaded opening comprises a size to mate with ⅜″ threaded suspension rod. 11. The conduit attachment device arrangement as recited in claim 7, wherein the second threaded opening comprises a size to mate with ⅜″ set screws. 12.
