  • Patent number: 10100950
    Abstract: A pipe clamp includes two clamp parts for fastening a pipe to a channel type profile element having a longitudinal slot. Each clamp part has a curved pipe clamping portion, where in a mounted state the pipe clamping portions of the respective clamp parts are positioned opposite each other to accommodate a pipe section. Each clamp part has an anchoring portion formed at one end of each clamp part to anchor the pipe clamp to the profile element. The anchoring portion is essentially formed as a leg with a hammerhead, which is insertable in the longitudinal slot of the profile element and rotatable to engage the slot edges. A flange is formed at another end of each clamp part. The pipe clamp furthermore includes a tightening member associated with the clamp flanges for tightening them together.
