- the trigger guard 2 is symmetrical with respect to the plane passing through the axis of the spring 3. It is metallic or plastic depending on the applications. It is essentially constituted by a sole 18. In the vicinity of its ends, it carries racks such as 11. It has lateral walls 12, 13 folded upwards to guide the ends of the belt 1, and to maintain the spring 3. These side walls have notches such as 14 or shear lines such as 15 to give flexibility to the bridge 2 and allow it to adapt to different clamping diameters. In the vicinity of the ends of the trigger guard 2, the side walls are extended by flaps 16, 17 which are folded parallel to the sole 18 to ensure the assembly of the trigger guard 2, the belt 1 and the spring 3.
- the spring 3 is a helical spring, preferably with ⁇ ointive turns.
- the belt 1 is terminated on the right by an eyelet 21 obtained by folding back on itself the strip constituting the belt 1, and on the left by a fold 4.
- the eyelet 21 is practically at the plane of symmetry 22 of the collar, the spring 3 is at rest and its arm 7 is practically vertical , as well as the other arm 19, not shown.
- To put the collar in place open it by spreading the folded ends 9 and 20 of the spring, then put it around the tube to be tightened, then release the spring 3 so that it ensures symmetrical and elastic tightening of the tube.
- When the collar is in the tightening position it is in the position corresponding to the left part of FIG. 2.
- the spring 3 ' is under tension and its arms (19) are in an oblique position.
- the invention uses a clamp to increase the diameter of the spring 3.
- This clamp is shown diagrammatically in FIG. 3 by the two branches 23, 24 of its handle, its axis 25, and its two spouts 26, 27.
- the spout 27 has a recess 28, intended to receive the spring 3.
- the spout 26 carries a finger 29 which projects into the spout 27 and in recess 28 when the clamp is closed. This finger 29 is held in position by a pin 30.
- the spring 3 When the clamp is open, the spring 3 is inserted into the recess 28. The clamp is then closed and the finger 29 enters the axial space of the spring 3. The diameter of the finger 29 being greater "than the inside diameter of the spring 3 , it is forced to increase, which separates the arms 7 and 19 of the spring and puts them in an oblique position as on the left part of FIG. 2. During this tensioning operation of the spring 3, the straight wall 31 of the beak 27 of the clamp constitutes a support stop for the spring 3.
- the clamp After fitting the collar on the tube to be tightened, the clamp is open: the left wall 32 of the spout 27 serves as a spring retaining stop 3 to release the finger 29 from the spring 3.
- This left wall 32 has an orifice for leaving run finger 29 but retain spring 3.
- the flaps 16, 17 are folded parallel to the sole 18 of the trigger guard but sufficiently above the belt 1, said belt can be lifted up to come into abutment under the flaps 16, 17.
- the space between the sole 18 and the flaps 16, 17 of the trigger guard 2 is four times the thickness of the belt 1.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 do not operate according to the principle of that of FIG. 3: it proceeds by direct spacing of the arms 7 and 19 of the spring 3.
- It has two branches 33, 34 spaced apart by a spring 35 and capable of pivoting each around an axis 36, 37, respectively.
- the axes 36, 37 are held in a fixed relative position by two holding plates 38, 39 placed on either side of the branches 33, 34, the plate 39 having been removed for clarity of the drawing.
- Each of the branches 33, 34 ends in a beak, respectively 40 and 41.
- one of the branches, for example 34 carries a finger 42, perpendicular to the mean plane of the branches 33, 34, and intended to serve as 'spring retaining pin 3 when opening.
- the two nozzles 40, 41 are intended to take place between the arms 7, 19 of the spring. They each have a step, 43, 44, respectively to hold the arms of the spring during opening.
- the clamp ensures the opening of the clamping spring by pressure on its branches 33, 34, and the spring 35 ensures the spacing of the branches when this pressure is released.
- the clamp has two branches 45, 46 articulated on a common axis 47 and each comprising a jaw 48, 49, respectively.
- Each jaw carries a finger, 50, 51, respectively, intended to penetrate the axial space of the spring 3, and a spout 52, 53, having an oblique face intended to cooperate with an arm 7, 19, of the spring 3.
- the two oblique faces 54, 55 are visible in FIG. 7.
- the two fingers 50, 51 serve as an axial support for holding the spring 3 and the two oblique faces 54, 55 separate one of the other the arms 7, 19 of the spring 3.
- the collar according to the invention has several advantages. First, it provides elastic tightening by the action of the spring 3. This tightening is defined by the mechanical characteristic of the spring and the final position of the spring thus corresponds to the ideal tightening. In addition, when the collar is put in place, it is automatically in the tightening position.
- the clamp that traps the spring during its installation is a guarantee of safety for the fitter.
- the arrangement of the spring 3 with its arms 7, 19, provides a visualization of the tightening.
- the clamp used to install the collar is also used for disassembly, with the same guarantees of safety.
- the necklace can be reused.
- the use of the clamp for work on the collar avoids the need for an electrical or pneumatic installation usually essential for elastic clamps.
- the necklace is of simple structure, suitable for different types of materials.
- the same collar is suitable for clamping tubes of several diameters. As a result, the range of collars to be provided is narrower than with collars of the conventional type with elastic tightening, which increases its economic advantage.
- the collar according to the invention comes from its very simple structure as regards the trigger guard and the belt. Therefore, the belt may have a thickness reduced by about half compared to a collar of the usual type.
