Abstract: A generally circular clamp band assembled from a pair of identical clamp band members each having an integral connection formed at one end for cooperation with a like connection on a like member to join a pair of members at one end without the use of additional fasteners.
Abstract: A device for clamping tubular members such as an exhaust pipe with a muffler, wherein interengaging telescoped portions are clamped together by saddle members having semicircular portions adapted to apply circumferential pressure uniformly about the telescoped portions by means of a square U-bolt.
Abstract: Disclosed is a clasp assembly for gripping a submarine hydraulic hose or the like which is being suspended by a metal cable. The clasp comprises a tubular clasp body including two matching partial tubular clasp elements which are hinged together along one edge. Lock means which are provided to maintain the two elements together about the hose includes a flange which diverges from each clasp element. A releasable fastener means draws the two flanges toward each other to lock the clasp in its closed position. Each of the clasp elements is equipped with a liner of rubber-like material to provide a firm friction grip on the hose. Clamp means are provided on the exterior of one of the clasp elements for attaching the clasp assembly to a cable or the like used to suspend the hose.
Abstract: A clamp for waveguides or other cable has two members with overall semicylindrical contour, one being stiff, the other one being constructed from two flexible, integrally joint portions. The two members are bolted together on one side and bolted or hinged on the other side. The stiffer member can be separately bolted to a support by means of different kinds of bolts and fastening rods.
Abstract: A hose clamp body for use with a bolt having a shank and a head. A surface on the body grips the hose and an opening generally transverse to a first surface on the body receives the bolt shank. The bolt head is provided with a flat side surface laterally spaced a predetermined distance from the diametrically opposite side of the shank. Provided on the body is a second surface which intersects the first surface and extends away therefrom to an upper edge to form an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the opening. The predetermined distance being less than the transverse distance between the upper edge and the diametrically opposite side of the opening and greater than the transverse distance between the intersection and the diametrically opposite side of the opening so that the flat side of the bolt head engages the body second surface before the bolt head contacts the first surface to prevent the bolt from turning relative to the body.
