ABSTRACT:
A fixing device using a clamp for fixing an elongated member to a basic structure.
In case a small-sized elongated metallic or resin tube, wire harness, rod or cable is fixed to a basic structure, it has been usual to use a fixing device like a bandlike clamp to the elongated member. The fixing mechanism of such clamp has been such that the elongated member is passed through a semicircular coiled portion formed at one end of the clamp and the inner surface of the coiled portion of the clamp is brazed to the entire contact portion of the outer periphery of the elongated member.
However, the clamp of the above type is disadvantageous because impact applied on the member or vibrations transmitted to the member from the basic structure are not absorbed causing damage on the member or clamp.
The present invention eliminated the above disadvantages of the conventional clamp in such a manner that when the elongated member is fixed to the semicircular coiled portion of the clamp, only the free end portion of the clamp is brazed to the outer periphery of the member covered by the clamp leaving a space therebetween so that impact or vibrations applied on the elongated member are absorbed thereby preventing the member from being damaged or cracked.
