Bracket for attaching a clamp to a hose

摘要

A plastic bracket (10) including a screw housing cover (26) and a pair of opposing tabs (28) is pressed over a screw housing (12) of a worm drive clamp (14) to secure the worm drive clamp (14) to a hose (24). The tabs (28) can extend either be inside or outside of the screw housing cover (26). A protrusion (46) located on each of the opposing inner surfaces (48) of the screw housing cover (26) retain the bracket (10) over the screw housing (12). End caps (40) and (44) molded across opposing sides of the screw housing cover (26) maintain the position of the screw housing (12) in the screw housing cover (26) during assembly and prevent the sliding of the worm drive clamp (14).
