Description

2 w An integral clamp for hydraulic for use in household service and the consisting in a hoop which clamps the main piping and to which main piping it is attached by means of fastening wherein the above mentioned hoop includes a normally projected element which is diametrically split all the way down to the hoop that is also split and in which element interior a coupling sleeve is housed in a fixed position with said sleeve having a curved inferior end that includes a peripherical groove on which a seal of elastomeric material is which seal is hermetically pressed against the external surface of the main piping by the action of a binding that threadedly coupled to the external surface of the projection and which binding nut which is shaped is superposed on the above mentioned coupling sleeve and leans on a peripherical protuberance of the coupling To clamps are integrated by multiple which make difficult the installation of same and at the same time requiring skilled personnel to avoid errors in their On the other installation of this kind of conventional clamps requires fastening devices such as screws with their corresponding wedges or other elements difficult to the type of clamps currently in use for hydraulic require the use of auxiliary tools for their and the adjustment obtained is unsatisfactor At the same with the type of clamps currently in undesirable stresses are exerted upon the clamps as well as on the piping on which they are all of which results in more and requires additional It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a clamp for hydraulic connections such as household consisting of a reduced number of said clamp does not require the use of additional tools for their and rendering a perfect adjustment to the The clamp of this invention does not require for its installation the use of wedges or any other fastening means of difficult thus reducing considerably installation On the other the adjusting system of the clamp of this invention avoids excessive stresses and both in the piping as well as in the clamp being Due to the simple elements of the clamp it is not possible to incur in errors of These and other objects to be obtained in the application this invention shall be better understood and appreciated from reading the following description which refers to the attached drawings of the preferred embodiment of Figure is an elevated vertical view of the clamp for hydraulic such as those used for household services installed on the Figure is a conventional longitudinal sectional view of the clamp illustrated in Figure Figure is a front elevated view of the hoop or ring of the clamp of this mounted on the illustrating with dotted lines the manner on which it is Figure is an elevated detailed sectional vertical view illustrating a coupling sleeve which is partially inserted in the projected element of the hoop illustrated in Figure Figure is an inferior plant view of the coupled sleeve illustrated in Figure Clamp 11 of the present invention for hydraulic such as those used for household is structured by a hoop 12 which is mounted on the main piping said hoop 12 includes a radial tubular projection element 14 which is perpendicular to its longitudinal including in its external surface a threading said tubular projection element 14 includes a diametrical split which extends longitudinally up to the hoop 12 and allowing the mounting operation thereof on the piping Due to the flexibility of the material from which the hoop is made the opening of same is permitted as well as the restoring of it to its original closed as illustrated in Figure The coupling sleeve 17 is located in the interior of the tubular projection element in a fixed position by means of a guide member illustrated in the Said guide is located in the internal surface of the tubular curved and including thereon an external annular groove on which an elastomeric material ring seal 19 is An internal threading 20 is included at the opposite end of said sleeve to which the threaded end 21 of a nozzle 22 is coupled for an hydraulic such as those used for household To integrate the clamp assembly and hermeticall adjusting the sealing element 19 on the external surface of the piping a binding nut 23 is coupled to the external threading 15 of the projection element said nut 23 when being screwed on rests a top flange 24 which is projected forwardly on a peripherical protuberance 25 of the coupling sleeve until an hermetic contact of the sealing element 19 is obtained on the external surface of the piping For installation of the above mentioned as it is illustrated in Figure the hoop is and thereafter it is mounted on the main piping then the tubular projection element 14 is oriented towards the desired the coupled sleeve 17 is further inserted in the interior housing of the tubular projection element the coupling sleeve is located in a fixed position by means of a guide member illustrated in the formed in the interior face said tubular projection element which sleeve 17 already includes in its lower end a superposed elastomeric material ring seal the coupling sleeve 17 being then adjusted by screwing the binding nut 23 until an hermetic contact of the sealing element 19 to the external surface of the piping 13 is and later by using an adequate pipe 13 is drilled serving the coupling sleeve 17 as a guide to the mentioned the coupling sleeve 17 above mentioned is coupled to the nozzle of connection 22 for coupling the household service or hydraulic connections This latter connection may be effected through the use of any other fitting The above mentioned binding nut 23 may include external grooves 26 to permit easy handling of Although the invention has been shown and described particularly referring to the preferred embodiment of same those skilled in the art will understand that the aforementioned and other changes in form and detail can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the insufficientOCRQuality
