Abstract: A hose clamp system includes a hose clamp and a guide bracket configured to attach the clamp to a hose substrate such that a desired radial and axial position relative to the substrate outer diameter and hose end is maintained. The hose clamp includes an annular band including a radial inner surface facing toward a central axis and a radial outer surface positioned opposite the radial inner surface and a tension mechanism configured to tighten the annular band. The guide bracket includes an elongated body extending over the radial outer surface and a clip extending outward from the annular band that is configured to engage a hose substrate. The guide bracket is moveably coupled to the annular band such that the guide bracket is permitted to move circumferentially along the radial outer surface of the annular band.

Abstract: An improved shielding cage assembly that utilizes air guides is disclosed. The shielding cage has a hollow interior configured to receive an electronic module therein which generates heat during operation. An air guide member is provided that defines an entry for surrounding air to enter the shielding cage interior and circulate around the electronic module. A thermal transfer member is provided that defines at least one exit passage for the air in the interior of the shielding cage to exit.

Abstract: A shielding cage is disclosed that has an EMI gasket integrally formed on its exterior. In order to prevent the over-insertion of the cage into a faceplate opening, a plurality of stop members are formed integrally with the cage walls and comprise angled tabs that are bent outwardly away from the cage walls at an angle of between about 30 and 90. The stop members are flanked by a pair of EMI gasket spring fingers and are positioned so that they are located above the centers of modules inserted into module-receiving bays of the shielding cage.
