A clamp for fastening an object in the form of a tube or hose, having an elongate clamp strap at each of the ends of which there is provided a radially outwardly projecting fastening leg, and having a rubber profile which is provided on the radial inner face of the clamp strap and which at least partially engages around each of the edges of the clamp strap by way of a lip. At least one first holding geometry is provided on the radial inner face of the clamp strap, and at least one second holding geometry is provided on the radial outer face of the rubber profile.

A fastening support includes a generally C-shaped annular body having two free ends which can be spaced apart to position the annular body around the item and a tab for fastening to the mounting point of an outer member. Furthermore, in accordance with the invention, the annular body includes, on an inner face, a plurality of retaining notches capable of cooperating with the tubular item such that the annular body is adapted to perform an incremental rotation from one notch to the other under the effect of a mechanical bias in rotation, between first and second angular positions for temporary immobilization in rotation by the retaining notches.

The invention relates to a clamp (1), in particular for fastening tubular objects to an underlying surface, comprising a clamp band (2), which has a first peripheral end (3) having a first leg (4) and a second peripheral end (5) having a second leg (6), and comprising at least one clip (7, 71), which is arranged on at least one of the legs (4, 6) on a side opposite the other leg (6, 4). The problem addressed by the invention is that of designing such a clamp in a simple manner and provide said clamp economically. This problem is solved in that the clamp band (2) has at least one projection (21), which interacts with the at least one clip (7, 71).

A method of attaching a line to a support structure comprises providing a holder 100, fastening the holder to the support structure, inserting the line into the holder, and bending the holder such that the holder is closed.

A cylindrical cavity for receiving the tubular article and a metal casing body delimiting a seat substantially inside which the insert is wrapped around the article, the insert having an external projection which extends radially towards the exterior of the insert and is configured to cooperate with a corresponding orifice formed in the seat of the metal body so as to position the insert inside the body, the projection comprising a base attached to the insert and a head provided at the periphery of the head with a protruding clipping edge configured to hold the insert inside the metal casing body. The insert has, at the base of the projection, a through hole extending in line with the clipping edge.

A holder for attaching a line to a support structure includes a fastening section, a side-part section, a closure section, and an engagement section. The fastening section has a perforation for passage of a fastening element and the fastening section has a receptacle for receiving a nose of a fastening tool.

A vibration isolating insert for a pipe clip includes an elongate strip having a pipe facing side, which in use faces the outer surface of the pipe, and opposite thereto a pipe clip facing side, which in use faces an inner side of the pipe clip body. The vibration isolating insert includes gripping formations connected to the strip at lateral side portions and extending towards the pipe clip facing side and in use grip over the lateral edges of the pipe clip body. The vibration isolating insert includes a framework and a vibration isolating lining made of a softer material different from the material of the framework, where the framework is formed of a polymeric material. The framework includes a strip shaped web, that reinforces the elongate strip, and lateral reinforcing members connected to the web on either lateral side of the web and reinforcing the gripping formations.

A routing and securing system with adjacent components is provided to route and secure hoses, lines, and harnesses of vehicles in a manner that is repeatable and straightforward and can be documented. The routing and securing system uses a base block provided in a first plane and a retainer, or wrap, provided in a second plane. The base block provides concave receptacles, or slots, for seating elongate routed components in the first plane, while the retainer overlaps the elongate routed components in the second plane to secure the elongate routed components to their respective concave receptacles. A mounting bracket may be used to mount the routing and securing system to the vehicle, and may also be used to join a pair of routing and securing systems together.

A method of forming a retaining clip configured to secure an elongate member to a generally planar panel is described herein. The retaining clip includes a first side wall, a second side wall opposite the first side wall, and an end wall interconnecting the side walls. The side walls define a gap configured to receive the panel. The retaining clip includes further includes a resilient first cantilevered prong projecting into the gap from the first side wall and a resilient second cantilevered prong projecting from into the first gap from the second side wall. Free ends of the first and second prongs are characterized as having a pair of pointed barbs on distal edges of the first and second prongs. The pointed barbs are configured to increase a removal force required to remove the panel from the first gap. A method of forming such a retaining clip is also described.
