Abstract: A coil spring includes a wire rod and an elastic coat provided on the wire rod. The coil spring includes a coil section including a plurality of coil portions. The wire rod includes a round cross-sectional portion, a cross-section varying portion, and a rectangular cross-sectional portion along the longitudinal direction of the wire rod. The cross section of the rectangular cross-sectional portion is substantially square and has a first plane and a second plane. The first plane and the second plane oppose each other in the coil section. The elastic coat is provided on at least one of the first plane and the second plane. The elastic coat is continuous from the round cross-sectional portion to the cross-sectional variation portion and the rectangular cross-sectional portion.

Abstract: A hose clamp includes a clamp main body including a ring portion and a pair of knob portions; and a holder. The holder includes a main body portion, a pair of holding walls, and an operation portion. An inner surface on a distal end side of one holding wall includes a protrusion that protrudes more largely inward than an inner surface on a distal end side of other holding wall. And in a state where the pair of knob portions are close to each other, a distal end of one knob portion in a peripheral direction is engaged with the inner surface of the one holding wall, and the other knob portion is engaged with the inner surface of the other holding wall, so that the ring portion is kept in a diameter-increased state.
