Damper access assembly, clamp assembly, and clamp member

摘要

A clamp assembly is provided for use in a duct system. The clamp assembly includes a clamp member including a base portion and first and second lateral portions. The first and second lateral portions extend less than the full circumferential length of the base portion. The clamp assembly may include a first member, a second member, and a hinge operatively coupling the first member to the second member. A damper access assembly includes an adapter, a damper access duct section, and an annular clamp member. A first flange of the adapter and a second flange of the duct section are configured to form a generally T-shaped joint between the adapter and the damper access duct section. The clamp member is configured to removably secure the adapter to the damper access duct section. The damper access duct section is configured to be removable relative to the damper enclosure and the ductwork.

1. A clamp assembly for joining a first outwardly directed flange of a first duct with a second outwardly directed flange of a second duct, the outwardly directed flanges being configured to confront one another and define a gap therebetween to form a joint, the assembly comprising:
a circumferential clamp member including a base portion defining an annular periphery of the member and first lateral portions and second lateral portions each extending inwardly from the base portion, the first lateral portions being generally parallel to the second lateral portions to define a channel therebetween for receiving the first and second flanges, the first lateral portions and second lateral portions including longitudinal extensions that extend away from the channel to increase rigidity of the joint.
