The invention is based on a tensioning clamp (10) with a tensioning band (12), two tensioning elements (14a, 14b), a pulling element (16) and an insert (18), wherein the tensioning band (12) comprises two ends which are each folded over to form a loop. Each of the loops (20a, 20b) receives a tensioning element and has openings (24, 26). The pulling element (16) connects the tensioning elements (14a, 14b) through the openings (24, 26) of the loops (20a, 20b) and transmits a pulling force applied to tension the tensioning clamp (10). The insert (18) is arranged in a circumferential region of the loops (20a, 20b) between the tensioning band (12) and a binding material, and has a profile with at least two radially inwardly projecting ribs (30a, 30b) extending in the circumferential direction of the tensioning band (10) and a trough (32) formed between the ribs (30a, 30b). A rear side of the insert (18) facing the tensioning belt (12) in the region of the trough (32) forms a support surface (34) for the setting material.

It is proposed that the support surface (34) has at least one recess (40a, 40b) in a circumferential region lying below the tensioning elements (14a, 14b).

An apparatus comprising an inner part including an external thread and a slot with a non-circular cross section in a plane perpendicular to the screw axis of the external thread. The slot is configured to locate an elongate member with a corresponding non-circular cross section, such that when located in the slot the elongate member is rotatably fixed relative to the slot. The apparatus further comprises an outer part including an internal surface that comprises a threaded portion, wherein the outer part is configured to threadably rotate around the inner part.

A clamp for supporting an electrical conductor on a structure and providing electrical continuity between the electrical conductor and the structure is provided. The clamp can include a mounting member with a through-hole and a strap, that can be configured to extend around the structure, coupled on one end to a first side of the mounting member and having a free end removably coupled to a second side of the mounting member. The clamp can include a clamping member with a through-hole and a main bolt extending through the through-holes of the mounting member and the clamping member. The main bolt can have a footer configured to contact the structure, which can be movable between a first configuration in which the footer is nested within a pocket of the mounting member and a second configuration in which at least a portion of the footer is positioned outside of the pocket.

A structure is provided for installing a pipe fixing clamp installed in a sound absorber. A part of a curved pipe portion of an internal structural pipe of the sound absorber is cut to form an exhaust gas flow space. The pipe fixing clamp having multiple holes is connected to the exhaust gas flow space.

A spring clamp with integrated installation and removal capability allows a user to install or remove the spring clamp safely using common shop tools or by hand. The spring clamp includes two tangs with a fastener extending between them. The fastener may be used to draw the tangs together or apart, to thereby open or close the spring clamp, and to safely change the potential energy of the spring clamp. The user may turn the fastener or a nut on the fastener using common shop tools or by hand to expand the spring clamp so that it can be slipped over a hose and to allow the spring clamp to tighten around the hose.

A clamp element, in particular a band clamp, has a first end portion and a second end portion which are arranged at a distance with respect to one another. A first element engages on the first end portion and a second element engages on the second end portion. The elements are or can be brought into engagement with one another by an engagement portion, and the engagement portion is formed between the end portions.

A clamping seat of the telescopic rod comprises a pipe seat, a movable clamp and a fixed clamp. The pipe seat comprises an inner pipe space and an outer pipe space to insert the inner pipe and the outer pipe. The pipe seat comprises a side opening beside the inner pipe space and a side space beside the outer pipe space. The movable clamp comprises an arc block beside the side opening, and a screwing member pressing the arc block into the inner pipe space then to press and fix the inner pipe. The fixed clamp comprises a clamping plate in the side space, and a tightening bolt pressing the pipe seat against the clamping plate, allowing the clamping plate to press the outer pipe. Accordingly, the arc block and the clamping plate contact the pipes in a large area to avoid local deformation and prevent damaged together.
