HOSE BENDING CLAMP

摘要

A hose bending clamp (10) is described for holding a hose in a desired bent shape. The clamp (10) includes a coil (14) designed to slip over the outside of a section of hose to be bent. Each of the turns (12) of the coil are designed to constrain the hose so as to inhibit it from spreading or kinking as it is forced into the desired shape. A malleable spine (16) is provided in connection with the coil (14) and is designed to bend with the hose into the desired shape and to hold the shape when released.
