A pipe junction includes a corrugated pipe including a pipe wall having an inner pipe wall and an outer pipe wall, the outer pipe wall having a plurality of peaks and a plurality of valleys disposed between the plurality of peaks, and an opening through the pipe wall. The corrugated pipe junction includes a hub and sleeve assembly received within the opening of the pipe wall, the hub and sleeve assembly including a hub received within the sleeve. When the hub and sleeve assembly is received within the opening of the pipe wall, a compressive seal is formed between the hub and sleeve assembly and the inner pipe wall such that the hub and sleeve assembly is sealingly engaged with the inner pipe wall around an entire circumference of the hub and sleeve assembly.

Disclosed are methods and apparatus that allow hand forces to easily cinch up and tighten a slotted band of a hose clamp to a position where a worm gear screw may then be used to firmly tightening the hose clamp around a hose or pipe. A cinching operation may be accomplished using a pawl apparatus provided at one end of a hose clamp having a centrally located downwardly facing tooth provided between a pair of oppositely positioned side walls which act as guides for receiving a slotted band of a hose clamp. A tightening operation may then be accomplished by turning the screw of a worm gear at the other end of the hose clamp. The hose clamp may be removed by releasing the pawl assembly or unscrewing the worm and gear screw.

A double band clamp assembly with a no-hub coupling. The clamp assembly has a first elongate band with a first end and a second end disposed opposite from the first end. The clamp assembly includes a second elongate band having a first end and a second end opposite from the first end. The second elongate band is disposed in spaced apart, substantially parallel relation to the first elongate band. A third elongate band has a plurality of slots defined therein. The third elongate band has a first end and a second end disposed opposite from the first end. The third elongate band extends from the first ends of the first and second elongate bands.

A hose or duct having and end with an adjustable clamp fixed in an enforced position thereon. The clamp includes a band which encircles the hose or duct. The band has an adjustable diameter operable to compress the hose or duct to form a fluid tight seal onto an exterior of a connection port. The adjustable clamp secured to the duct or hose by at least one mounting pad.

A hose clamp developed for hose structures used in many fields particularly in the automotive sector. The hose clamp includes a clamp band which surrounds the hose, a clamp housing which engages both ends of said clamp band, at least one positioner clip which limits radial and axial motion of the hose clamp on the hose, a wing with springy feature which is located on the positioner clip and allows diameter reduction of the hose clamp, a structure which couples the positioner clip to the hose by a plurality of serrations and does damage the hose.

A hose clip includes a clip band and a clamping device. A receiving region is configured between axial edge regions of the clip band. The receiving region extends radially outwardly and in the circumferential direction. The receiving region is interrupted in the region of the clamping device.
