Abstract

A hose clamp (100) including a band (120) with an integrated wave-form (110) formed in the band (120) for spring compensation during thermal cycling and material aging, and notches (122) formed in the band (120); a housing (150); a worm gear screw (140) for tensioning the hose clamp; a compression liner (13 0) inserted in the inside circumference of the band (120) to increase clamp uni t loading by concentrating the load radially inward around and through the circumference of the band (120); and an attachment means to secure the compression liner (130) in place with the band (120).

Claims (19)

1. A hose clamp comprising:

a band further comprising:

notches formed in the band disposed at a first end of the band disposed at an angle to a longitudinal axis of the band, and an integrated wave-form formed in the band circumferentially spaced such that the wave-form is yieldable in a direction circumferentially of the band for spring compensation during thermal cycling and material aging wlierein the wave-form is formed in the band where the band is void of notches;

a housing attached to a second end of the band;

a worm gear screw attached with the housing such that the notches and the worm gear screw engage for tensioning the hose clamp;

a compression liner inserted in the inside of a circumference of the band to increase clamp unit loading by concentrating the load radially inward from the tension of the circumference of the band, the liner further comprising a width of the liner such that the width substantially covers the notches; and a. an attachment means to secure the liner in place in relation to a width direction of the band and to allow movement of the liner in the circumference, length direction.
2. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the wave-form further comprises two waves.
3. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the wave-form further comprises three waves.
4. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the band further comprises multiple sets of wave-forms disposed around the circumference of the band.
5. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the compression liner further comprises a V-shaped liner, and a length of the V-shaped liner such that both ends of the V-shaped liner overlap when inserted in the band.
6. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 5 wherein the compression liner overlap is disposed approximately 180 degrees around the circumference of the band from the wave-form.
7. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the compression liner further comprises a U-shaped liner.
8. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the attachment means further comprises lances disposed parallel in the band such that the parallel lances secure the liner in place in relation to the width direction of the band and allow movement of the liner in the circumference, length direction.
9. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the attachment means further comprises dimples disposed in the band such that the dimples secure the liner in place in relation to the width direction of the band and allow movement of the liner in the circumference, length direction.
10. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 1 wherein the attachment means further comprises a weld such that the weld secures the liner in place in relation to the width direction of the band and allows movement of the liner in the circumference, length direction.
11. A hose clamp comprising:

a band further comprising:

notches formed in the band disposed at a first end of the band disposed at an angle to a longitudinal axis of the band, and an integrated wave-form formed in the band circumferentially spaced such that the wave-form is yieldable in a direction circumferentially of the band for spring compensation during thermal cycling and material aging wherein the wave-form is formed in the band where the band is void of notches;

a housing attached to a second end of the band;

a worm gear screw attached with the housing such that the notches and the worm gear screw engage for tensioning the hose clamp;

a compression liner inserted in the inside of a circumference of the band to increase clamp unit loading by concentrating the load radially inward from the tension of the circumference of the band, the liner further comprising:

a length of material comprising a geometric-shaped cross section, and a width of the liner such that the width partially covers the notches; and an attachment means to secure the liner in place in relation to a width direction of the band and to allow movement of the liner in the circumference, length direction.
12. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 11 wherein the geometric-shaped cross section includes a circular-shaped material.
13. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 12 wlierein the band further comprises an aperture for transition of the liner when entering and exiting the band.
14. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 13 wherein the band further comprises an entrance aperture and an exit aperture and wherein the liner length of material includes a length such that the liner protrudes from the entrance aperture and the exit aperture when the liner is inserted in the band.
15. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 12 wherein the attachment means further comprises a trough such that the trough secures the liner in place in relation to the width direction of the band and allows movement of the liner in the circumference, length direction.
16. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 11 wlierein the liner, length of material, geometric-shaped cross section includes a triangular-shaped material and wherein the band further comprises an entrance aperture and an exit aperture shaped to match the material geometric-shaped cross section.
17. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 16 wlierein the attachment means further comprises a trough such that the trough maintains the triangular-shaped material in the desired location on the width of the band and such that the trough allows the material to ride within the trough.
18. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 11 wherein the geometric-shaped cross section includes a semicircle-shaped material and wherein the band further comprises an entrance aperture and an exit aperture shaped to match the geometric-shaped cross section material.
19. A hose clamp as set forth in claim 11 wherein the geometric-shaped cross section includes a tubular-shaped material.
