  • Patent number: 4889168
    Abstract: A tubing angle bend assembly including a length of flexible tubing is provided with a clip mounting the tubing to bend the tubing through a pre-selected angle. The clip has an arcuate body and has radially inwardly extending retaining structure flanking either end for retaining the tube in resilient fit against the spine of the clip. A central retainer finger of the clip extends radially inwardly and beneath the tubing to maintain the tubing against the spline of the clip without collapsing the tubing. An opening between the central retainer finger and the spine of the clip allows resilient passage of the tubing into and out of the clip. Thus, the tubing is retained within the clip by the retaining structure and the central retainer finger to smoothly bend the tubing through the pre-selected angle.
