ABSTRACT:
An improved shaft-clamping device is provided utilizing a loop-bolt which wraps spirally around the shaft, or pipe to be clamped to another member, and such member is provided with a pair of spaced mounting apertures, through which the legs of the loop-bolt project, and have fastening means secured thereto, such as nuts, for example.
Preferably, to increase the friction between the loop-bolt, or shaft-clamping device to the shaft, or pipe, the loop-bolt is threaded. This not only increases the frictional relationship between the shaft, or pipe and the other member, to which the shaft, or pipe is to be clamped, but, additionally, the threaded condition of the legs of the loop-bolt allow the clamping nuts to be threadedly secured thereto without further manufacturing operations. Heat treatment of the threaded loop-bolt brings the best result since the biting action is increased and the loop-bolt can be reused without flattening the threads.
