The holding portion 14 of the hose clamp 10 has a circular shape that surrounds the entire circumference of the pipe 12 along the outer peripheral surface 12 </ b> A of the pipe 12.
図1に示すように、ホースクランプ10の保持部14には周方向(図1の矢印A方向)に沿った一箇所に開放部16が形成されている。また、開放部16を形成する保持部14の両端部における一方の端部14Aの外周部には、係合部としての第1係合部18が一体成形で凸設されており、他方の端部14Bの外周部には、係合部としての第2係合部20が一体成形で凸設されている。 As shown in FIG. 1, the holding portion 14 of the hose clamp 10 has an open portion 16 formed at one place along the circumferential direction (the direction of arrow A in FIG. 1). In addition, a first engaging portion 18 as an engaging portion is integrally formed on the outer peripheral portion of one end portion 14A at both end portions of the holding portion 14 forming the open portion 16 so as to protrude from the other end. On the outer peripheral portion of the portion 14B, a second engaging portion 20 as an engaging portion is provided by being integrally formed.
図5に示すように、第1係合部18と第2係合部20とは互いに対向して配置されている。第1係合部18は保持部14の外周面14Cから保持部14の半径方向外側に伸びる板状の基部18Aと、基部18Aの長手方向中間部から第2係合部20に向かって伸びる板状の雄部18Bとを備えている。一方、第2係合部20は保持部14の外周面14Cから保持部14の半径方向外側に伸びる板状の基部20Aと、基部20Aの長手方向中間部から第1係合部18に向かって伸びる雌部20Bとを備えている。 As shown in FIG. 5, the first engagement portion 18 and the second engagement portion 20 are disposed to face each other. The first engaging portion 18 is a plate-like base portion 18A extending from the outer peripheral surface 14C of the holding portion 14 to the outside in the radial direction of the holding portion 14, and a plate extending from the longitudinal intermediate portion of the base portion 18A toward the second engaging portion 20. And a male portion 18B. On the other hand, the second engaging portion 20 is a plate-like base portion 20A extending from the outer peripheral surface 14C of the holding portion 14 to the outside in the radial direction of the holding portion 14, and from the intermediate portion in the longitudinal direction of the base portion 20A toward the first engaging portion 18. And an extending female portion 20B.
雄部18Bの先端部には係合爪22が保持部14の半径方向外側に向かって突出形成されている。一方、雌部20Bは外周側壁20Cと内周側壁20Dとを有し、開口部を第1係合部18に向けている。また、雌部20Bの外周側壁20Cの内周面には、本締め用の係合凹部24と、仮止め用の係合凹部26とが形成されており、仮止め用の係合凹部26が開口側となっている。従って、雄部18Bを雌部20Bに開口部から挿入し、雄部18Bの係合爪22を、雌部20Bの仮止め用の係合凹部26に係合させると、ホースクランプ10は図1及び図5に示す仮止め状態となる。また、雄部18Bの係合爪22を雌部20Bの本締め用の係合凹部24に係合させると、ホースクランプ10は、図3及び図6に示す本締め状態となる。 An engaging claw 22 is formed at the distal end of the male part 18B so as to protrude outward in the radial direction of the holding part 14. On the other hand, the female part 20 </ b> B has an outer peripheral side wall 20 </ b> C and an inner peripheral side wall 20 </ b> D, and the opening is directed to the first engaging part 18. In addition, an engagement recess 24 for final fastening and an engagement recess 26 for temporary fixing are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the outer peripheral side wall 20C of the female portion 20B. It is the opening side. Accordingly, when the male part 18B is inserted into the female part 20B from the opening and the engaging claw 22 of the male part 18B is engaged with the engaging recess 26 for temporary fixing of the female part 20B, the hose clamp 10 is shown in FIG. And it will be in the temporary fix | stop state shown in FIG. Further, when the engaging claw 22 of the male portion 18B is engaged with the engaging recess 24 for final fastening of the female portion 20B, the hose clamp 10 is in the final fastening state shown in FIGS.
図7に示すように、雌部20Bの外周側壁20Cにおける幅方向の一端部には、保持部14の半径方向内側に向かって凸部28が突出形成されている。一方、雌部20Bの内周側壁20Dにおける幅方向の凸部28と反対側の端部には、保持部14の半径方向外側に向かって凸部30が突出形成されている。これらの凸部28と凸部30とが雄部18Bの幅方向両端部と摺動することで、雄部18Bと雌部20Bとが幅方向にずれることを防止できるようになっている。また、凸部28における雄部18Bの幅方向両端部との摺動面28Aと、凸部30における雄部18Bの幅方向両端部との摺動面30Aとが、先端側に向かってテーパーとなっている。このため、本締め状態となったホースクランプ10を外す際に、第1係合部18と第2係合部20とをこじることで、雄部18Bと雌部20Bとの係合を容易に解除できるようになっている。 As shown in FIG. 7, a convex portion 28 is formed so as to protrude radially inward of the holding portion 14 at one end portion in the width direction of the outer peripheral side wall 20 </ b> C of the female portion 20 </ b> B. On the other hand, at the end of the inner peripheral side wall 20D of the female part 20B opposite to the convex part 28 in the width direction, a convex part 30 is formed so as to protrude outward in the radial direction of the holding part 14. By sliding these convex portions 28 and convex portions 30 with both ends in the width direction of the male portion 18B, the male portion 18B and the female portion 20B can be prevented from shifting in the width direction. In addition, the sliding surfaces 28A of the convex portion 28 with both ends in the width direction of the male portion 18B and the sliding surfaces 30A of the convex portion 30 with both ends of the male portion 18B in the width direction are tapered toward the tip side. It has become. For this reason, when removing the hose clamp 10 in the final tightening state, the first engagement portion 18 and the second engagement portion 20 are twisted to easily engage the male portion 18B and the female portion 20B. It can be canceled.
図6に示すように、第1係合部18の基部18Aと第2係合部20の基部20Aには、それぞれ複数の滑り止め32が互いに離間する方向へ向かって突出形成されている。このため、第1係合部18の基部18Aと第2係合部20の基部20Aとを作業者が把持して、本締め状態となる方向(図6の矢印B方向)へ移動する際に、滑り止め32によって作業者の手が滑り難くなり、作業性が向上するようになっている。 As shown in FIG. 6, a plurality of non-slip 32 are formed in the base portion 18 </ b> A of the first engagement portion 18 and the base portion 20 </ b> A of the second engagement portion 20 so as to protrude in directions away from each other. For this reason, when an operator grasps base 18A of the 1st engagement part 18 and base 20A of the 2nd engagement part 20, and moves to the direction (arrow B direction of Drawing 6) used as a final tightening state. The anti-slip 32 makes it difficult for the operator's hand to slip and improves workability.
図2に示すように、ホースクランプ10の開放部16は、周方向分割部16A、第1幅方向分割部16B及び第2幅方向分割部16Cから構成されている。周方向分割部16Aは保持部14におけるパイプ12との当接面(内周面)14Dの幅方向(図2の矢印W方向)中央部に沿って形成されている。なお、周方向分割部16Aは保持部14の当接面14Dの幅方向中央部以外の中間部に沿って形成してもよい。また、第1幅方向分割部16Bは、周方向分割部16Aの一端から当接面14Dの幅方向に沿って伸びており、第2幅方向分割部16Cは、周方向分割部16Aの他端から当接面14Dの幅方向に沿って第1幅方向分割部16Bと逆方向に伸びている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the opening 16 of the hose clamp 10 includes a circumferential division 16A, a first width division 16B, and a second width division 16C. The circumferential dividing portion 16A is formed along the central portion in the width direction (in the direction of arrow W in FIG. 2) of the contact surface (inner circumferential surface) 14D of the holding portion 14 with the pipe 12. In addition, you may form 16 A of circumferential direction division parts along intermediate parts other than the center part of the width direction of contact surface 14D of the holding | maintenance part 14. FIG. The first width direction division portion 16B extends from one end of the circumferential direction division portion 16A along the width direction of the contact surface 14D, and the second width direction division portion 16C is the other end of the circumferential direction division portion 16A. Extends in the direction opposite to the first width direction dividing portion 16B along the width direction of the contact surface 14D.
従って、図4に示すように、ホースクランプ10が本締め状態になると、保持部14の内周部における周方向に沿って異なる位置に2つの逃げ部40、42が凹設されるようになっている。また、逃げ部40は保持部14の第1幅方向分割部16Bにおける両端部の一方が先端に向かって傾斜状に切り欠いた形状の傾斜面40Aとなっており、本締め状態での形状が保持部14の幅方向(図4の矢印W方向)から見て三角形となっている。また、逃げ部42は保持部14における第2幅方向分割部16Cの両端部の一方となる逃げ部40側が、先端に向かって傾斜状に切り欠いた形状の傾斜面42Aとなっており、本締め状態での形状が保持部14の幅方向(図4の矢印W方向)から見て三角形となっている。 Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, when the hose clamp 10 is in the final tightening state, the two relief portions 40 and 42 are recessed at different positions along the circumferential direction in the inner peripheral portion of the holding portion 14. ing. Further, the escape portion 40 has an inclined surface 40A having a shape in which one of both end portions of the first width direction division portion 16B of the holding portion 14 is cut out in an inclined manner toward the tip, and the shape in the final tightened state is It is a triangle when viewed from the width direction of the holding portion 14 (the direction of the arrow W in FIG. 4). Further, the escape portion 42 has an inclined surface 42A in which the escape portion 40 side, which is one of both end portions of the second width direction division portion 16C in the holding portion 14, is cut out in an inclined manner toward the tip. The shape in the tightened state is a triangle when viewed from the width direction of the holding portion 14 (the direction of the arrow W in FIG. 4).
従って、図3に示すパイプ12が軟質材で構成されており、ホースクランプ10を仮止状態から本締め状態にした場合に、パイプ12の一部が弛んだ場合には、逃げ部40、42に、弛んだパイプ12の一部が入るようになっている。また、逃げ部40、42が保持部14の内周部における周方向に沿って異なる位置に形成されているため、保持部14の幅方向(図3の矢印W方向)に沿って逃げ部40、42が連続していない。即ち、逃げ部40、42が保持部14を横断していない。この結果、逃げ部40、42によって保持部14のシール性が損なわれることがないようになっている。さらに、逃げ部40、42を、保持部14の端部14A、14Bを先端に向かって傾斜状に切り欠いた形状の傾斜面40A、42Aを有し、本締め状態での形状が保持部14の幅方向から見て三角形としたため、逃げ部40、42が成形し易い形状となっている。 Therefore, when the pipe 12 shown in FIG. 3 is made of a soft material, and the hose clamp 10 is changed from the temporarily fixed state to the final tightened state, when a part of the pipe 12 is loosened, the relief portions 40 and 42 are formed. In addition, a part of the slack pipe 12 enters. Further, since the escape portions 40 and 42 are formed at different positions along the circumferential direction in the inner peripheral portion of the holding portion 14, the escape portion 40 is taken along the width direction (arrow W direction in FIG. 3) of the holding portion 14. , 42 are not continuous. That is, the escape portions 40 and 42 do not cross the holding portion 14. As a result, the sealing performance of the holding portion 14 is not impaired by the escape portions 40 and 42. Furthermore, the escape portions 40 and 42 have inclined surfaces 40A and 42A in a shape in which the end portions 14A and 14B of the holding portion 14 are notched toward the tip, and the shape in the final tightened state is the holding portion 14. The relief portions 40 and 42 have shapes that are easy to mold.
図3に示すように、保持部14におけるパイプ12との当接面14Dの幅方向中央部には、保持部14の内周側に向かって突部46が突出形成されており、突部46は本締め状態において周方向に沿って連続した環状となっている。なお、突部46は当接面14Dの幅方向中央部以外の幅方向中間部に形成してもよい。 As shown in FIG. 3, a protrusion 46 is formed to protrude toward the inner peripheral side of the holding portion 14 at the center in the width direction of the contact surface 14 </ b> D with the pipe 12 in the holding portion 14.

次に、本実施形態の作用と効果について説明する。
本実施形態では、図11に示すように、パイプ12を配管13に接続する際に、図1及び図2に示すように、ホースクランプ10の第1係合部18に形成した雄部18Bの係合爪22を、第2係合部20に形成した雌部20Bの仮止め用の係合凹部26に係合させ仮止め状態とする。そして、仮止め状態としたホースクランプ10をパイプ12の一端の外周部に取付け、保持部14でパイプ12の外周面12Aを取り囲む。その後、配管13の端部をパイプ12の一端に挿入する。
(Action / Effect)
Next, the operation and effect of this embodiment will be described.
In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, when connecting the pipe 12 to the pipe 13, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the male portion 18 </ b> B formed in the first engaging portion 18 of the hose clamp 10. The engaging claw 22 is engaged with an engaging recess 26 for temporary fixing of the female portion 20B formed in the second engaging portion 20 to be in a temporarily fixed state. Then, the hose clamp 10 in a temporarily fixed state is attached to the outer peripheral portion of one end of the pipe 12, and the outer peripheral surface 12 </ b> A of the pipe 12 is surrounded by the holding portion 14. Thereafter, the end of the pipe 13 is inserted into one end of the pipe 12.
次に、第1係合部18の基部18Aと第2係合部20の基部20Aとを作業者が把持して、本締め状態となる方向(図6の矢印B方向)へ移動する。これにより、雄部18Bの係合爪22と雌部20Bの本締め用の係合凹部24とが係合すると、図3及び図11に示すように、ホースクランプ10が本締め状態となり、ホースクランプ10によってパイプ12が締め付けられ配管13に保持される。 Next, the operator holds the base portion 18A of the first engagement portion 18 and the base portion 20A of the second engagement portion 20 and moves in a direction (arrow B direction in FIG. 6) where the operator is in the final tightening state. As a result, when the engaging claw 22 of the male part 18B and the engaging concave part 24 for final fastening of the female part 20B are engaged, the hose clamp 10 is in the final fastening state as shown in FIGS. The pipe 12 is clamped by the clamp 10 and held in the pipe 13.
このため、本実施形態のホースクランプ10では、パイプ12の外周部を保持部14で取り囲むことができ、シール性が確保される。また、パイプ12が軟質材で構成されており、ホースクランプ10を仮止状態から本締め状態にした場合に、パイプ12の一部が弛んだ場合には、保持部14の内周部に凹設され逃げ部40、42に、弛んだパイプ12の一部が入る。このため、弛んだパイプ12の一部が、開放両端部の間に噛み込まれるのを防止できる。 For this reason, in the hose clamp 10 of this embodiment, the outer peripheral part of the pipe 12 can be surrounded by the holding | maintenance part 14, and a sealing performance is ensured. In addition, when the pipe 12 is made of a soft material and the hose clamp 10 is changed from the temporarily fixed state to the final tightened state, when a part of the pipe 12 is slackened, a concave portion is formed in the inner peripheral portion of the holding portion 14. A part of the slackened pipe 12 enters the escape portions 40 and 42. For this reason, it is possible to prevent a part of the slackened pipe 12 from being bitten between both open ends.
また、本実施形態のホースクランプ10では、開放部16が、保持部14におけるパイプ12との当接面14Dの幅方向(図2の矢印W方向)中央部に沿った周方向分割部16Aと、周方向分割部16Aの一端から当接面14Dの幅方向に沿って伸びる第1幅方向分割部16Bと、周方向分割部16Aの他端から当接面14Dの幅方向に沿って第1幅方向分割部16Bと逆方向に伸びる第2幅方向分割部16Cと、から構成されている。従って、図3に示すように、ホースクランプ10が本締め状態になると、保持部14の内周部における周方向に沿って異なる位置に2つの逃げ部40、42が凹設される。このため、逃げ部40が形成された箇所を、逃げ部42側の保持部14の端部14Bでシールでき、逃げ部42が形成された箇所を、逃げ部40側の保持部14の端部14Aでシールできる。即ち、保持部14の幅方向(図4の矢印W方向)に沿って逃げ部40、42が連続しない。この結果、逃げ部40、42によって保持部14のシール性が損なわれることがなく、シール性を向上することができる。 Further, in the hose clamp 10 of the present embodiment, the open portion 16 includes a circumferentially divided portion 16A along the central portion in the width direction (direction of arrow W in FIG. 2) of the contact surface 14D of the holding portion 14 with the pipe 12.
