<p>A hose clip for clamping a hose includes a clamping body (2) formed by bending a band-shaped spring plate into a circular form, a frame-shaped first grip (6a) formed at one end of the body (2) so as to protrude radially outward, a second grip (9a) formed at the other end of the body (2) so as to protrude radially outward and so as to oppose the first grip (6a) when moved through an inside of the first grip (6a), a locking protrusion (10) protruding from the first grip (6a) toward the second grip (9a), and a locking section (11) formed in the second grip (9a) so as to be engaged with the protrusion (10). When the protrusion (10) engages the locking section (11), the first and second grips 6a, 9a) are held close to each other such that the body (2) is held in a spread state. The protrusion (10) disengages from the locking section (11) when the first and second grips (6a, 9a) are displaced radially relative to each other. The first grip (6a) defines a releasing space (14) below the protrusion (10) so that a releasing tool (T) is penetrated through the releasing space (14) at the first grip side to release the protrusion (10) from engagement with the locking section (11). The locking section (11) includes a locking opening (12) formed in the second grip (9a). The protrusion (10) projects outward through the opening (12) while engaging tne locking section (11). <IMAGE></p> |
