Clamp retention device

摘要

A clamp retention device for positioning an open, generally cylindrical hose clamp on a hose extends generally about a longitudinal axis and has locating projections and cams for cooperating with the clamp and coupling the clamp to the retention device to hold the clamp disposed about said longitudinal axis. The body of the retention device may include at least one preformed perforation to receive a fastener for attaching the retention device to the hose. The fastener is preferably in the form of a wire staple or a rivet received through a perforation formed in a tab at one end of the retention device to be adjacent to the hose.
