Multipurpose Hose Clamp
The present invention relates to a multipurpose hose clamp. The hose clamp is capable of rotating laterally in a 360-degree orientation in clockwise and counterclockwise directions. The multipurpose clamp includes a round, flat, thin, single-gear band, and a clamping device. The clamping device or screw cage is separable from the band. A screw is configured to twist or turn into the clamping device and engages the slots disposed on the band to increase or decrease a diameter of the hose clamp. The multipurpose clamp can be applied to any type of hose, for example, water hoses, automobile hoses, radiator hoses, air vent hoses, etc. The screw cage is designed to rotate 360-degrees in either clockwise or counterclockwise directions.
Clamp assemblies and methods
An improved hose clamp having an annular band having an inner face, tensioning means, and an annular spring liner; the spring liner having a circumferential shoulder near an edge of the liner; and a central, cylindrical, flat contact portion of smaller circumference than the shoulder, and of smaller width than the inner face of the band. The shoulder is adapted to abut the inner face and the contact portion is adapted to contact a hose or other article to be clamped.
Single bolt shaft clamp
Embodiments of the adjustable clamps having a curved body having an inner surface, an outer surface, a first side section, a second side section, a middle section, a recess, and a bore to receive a fastener to compress, or expand the adjustable clamps are presented herein. Other embodiments and related methods are also disclosed herein.
Clamp
A clamp for use in joining conduit segments comprising a ring sector and a radially projecting channel sector having first and second straps, first and second compression members, a central compression member, and a fastener wherein upon tightening the fastener, axial forces along the fastener are transferred into clamping forces around the clamp in order to seal the conduit segments.
Steering clamp yoke
A steering clamp yoke includes a first side surface and a second side surface. The first side surface has a first surface segment and a second surface segment that is disposed in a non-parallel relationship with the first surface segment. The non-parallel relationship between the second surface segment and the first surface segment enables a bolt that is inserted into a bolt hole of the steering clamp yoke to contact both sides of the bolt hole to reduce or minimize bolt bending.
CLAMP ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS
An improved hose clamp having an annular band having an inner face, tensioning means, and an annular spring liner; the spring liner having a circumferential shoulder near an edge of the liner; and a central, cylindrical, flat contact portion of smaller circumference than the shoulder, and of smaller width than the inner face of the band. The shoulder is adapted to abut the inner face and the contact portion is adapted to contact a hose or other article to be clamped.
Apparatus and method of installing a clamp on a hose substrate
An improved hose clamp having an annular band having an inner face, tensioning means, and an annular spring liner; the spring liner having a circumferential shoulder near an edge of the liner; and a central, cylindrical, flat, contact portion of smaller circumference than the shoulder, and of smaller width than the inner face of the band. The shoulder is adapted to abut the inner face and the contact portion is adapted to contact a hose or other article to be clamped.
