Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fasteners, and in particular to an American-type hoop shell and an American-type clamp. Background Art

[0002] Among the many fastening devices, American-style clamps are widely used in various fields due to their unique design and wide applicability. American-style clamps typically consist of a clamp shell and bolts. The clamp shell is tightened by tightening the bolts, achieving a secure connection and fixation. However, in actual use, American-style clamps are prone to damage on the connection side of the clamp shell when subjected to external forces. This is primarily due to the following reasons: First, when the external force is excessive, the stress on the clamp shell exceeds the strength limit of the material. This is particularly true on the connection side, where stress concentration is more pronounced, as this is the weak link in the clamp shell. For example, in some pipeline connection scenarios, the pipeline may be subjected to external forces such as water impact and vibration. These forces are transmitted to the American-style clamp, causing significant pressure on the connection side of the clamp shell. Furthermore, the design of the American-style clamp makes the connection side susceptible to damage. The shape and size of the clamp shell on the connection side vary greatly, which easily creates stress concentration points. Furthermore, uneven tightening force of the bolts further complicates the stress situation on the connection side of the clamp shell, increasing the risk of damage. Furthermore, the operating environment also affects the connection side of the American-style clamp. In harsh environments, such as those characterized by high temperatures and corrosion, the material properties of the clamp may degrade, making it more susceptible to damage from external forces. In summary, the American-style clamp is susceptible to damage on the connection side of the clamp under external forces, severely impacting its performance and reliability, and presenting a pressing technical challenge. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model provides an American-type hoop shell and an American-type clamp, which solves the problem in the related art that the hoop shell is easily damaged under the action of external force.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

[0005] An American hoop shell, comprising:

[0006] The main body has a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion, the first connecting portion has a card slot, the second connecting portion has a card portion, the card slot is used to accommodate the card portion, and the main body forms a fixed space.

[0007] As a further technical solution, the card slot has a card surface, and the card surface is used to limit the card portion.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the slot is arrow-shaped.

[0009] As a further technical solution, the main body has a threaded anti-loosening portion, and there are two threaded anti-loosening portions located on both sides of the fixed space.

[0010] An American clamp, using an American clamp shell, also includes:

[0011] A hoop, one end of which is arranged in the fixed space and fixedly connected to the main body, and the other end is a free end and extends into the fixed space. The hoop has a through hole, and the through holes are arranged in a plurality of rows. The hoop forms a tightening space.

[0012] A fixing bolt is arranged in the fixing space, the fixing bolt is pressed on the free end, and the thread of the fixing bolt is located in the through hole.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the clamping groove and the clamping portion are both arrow-shaped, and after the fixing bolt is rotated in the direction of the arrow, the clamping space is reduced.

[0014] The working principle and beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0015] In the present invention, the main body, as the core part of the American hoop shell, undertakes the important function of accommodating the hoop strap and adjustment bolt of the American clamp. Its shape and size have been carefully designed to ensure that it can completely wrap and protect the internal components. The main body adopts a cylindrical shape or other suitable shape, and its length and diameter can be adjusted according to the size of the hoop strap and the adjustment bolt to provide sufficient accommodation space. The card slot of the first connecting part and the card part of the second connecting part are the key structures of the American hoop shell. The shape and size of the card slot are precisely matched with the card part, so that the card part can be firmly inserted into the card slot. The design purpose of these two connecting parts is to ensure that during the use of the American hoop shell, even if it is subjected to external force, the first connecting part and the second connecting part will not easily move away from each other, thereby avoiding damage to the hoop shell.

[0016] By tightly integrating the slots and the latches, the American-style clamp housing effectively prevents the first and second connecting parts from moving apart due to external forces. This is crucial in practical use, as moving apart could expose the clamp and adjustment bolt, increasing the risk of damage and potentially causing a safety hazard. This design ensures the housing remains intact, providing reliable protection for the components within. During installation, the American-style clamp housing may be subject to external forces such as vibration and impact. The slots and latches prevent damage to the housing under these conditions, ensuring the proper function of the American-style clamp. The combination of the slots and latches provides the American-style clamp housing with greater stability. When the clamp and adjustment bolt are installed within the housing, the overall structure of the housing is more rigid and less susceptible to deformation. This helps enhance the clamping force and stability of the American-style clamp, ensuring the clamped object is securely held. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0025] Reference Figure 1~Figure 2 , is an embodiment of the present utility model, and proposes an American hoop shell, including a main body 1, the main body 1 has a first connecting part 102 and a second connecting part 101, the first connecting part 102 has a card slot 103, the second connecting part 101 has a card part 104, the card slot 103 is used to accommodate the card part 104, and the main body 1 forms a fixed space 105.

[0026] In this embodiment, the main body 1 serves as the core of the American-style hoop shell and bears the important function of accommodating the band 2 and adjustment bolt of the American-style clamp. Its shape and size are carefully designed to ensure that it can completely enclose and protect the internal components. The main body 1 adopts a cylindrical or other suitable shape, and its length and diameter can be adjusted according to the size of the band 2 and the adjustment bolt to provide sufficient accommodation space. The slot 103 of the first connecting part 102 and the clamping part 104 of the second connecting part 101 are the key structures of the American-style hoop shell. The shape and size of the slot 103 precisely match the clamping part 104, so that the clamping part 104 can be firmly inserted into the slot 103. The design purpose of these two connecting parts is to ensure that during the use of the American-style hoop shell, even if it is subjected to external forces, the first connecting part 102 and the second connecting part 101 will not easily move away from each other, thereby avoiding damage to the hoop shell.

[0027] The tight fit between the slot 103 and the latch 104 effectively prevents the first connecting portion 102 and the second connecting portion 101 from moving apart due to external forces. This is crucial in practical use, as moving apart could expose the band 2 and the adjustment bolt, increasing the risk of damage and potentially even causing a safety hazard. This design ensures the band 2 remains intact, providing reliable protection for the internal components. During installation, the band 2 may be subject to external forces such as vibration and collision. The design of the slot 103 and latch 104 prevents damage to the band 2, ensuring the proper function of the band 2. The coordination of the slot 103 and latch 104 provides the band 2 with greater stability. When the band 2 and the adjustment bolt are installed, the overall structure of the band 2 is more rigid and less susceptible to deformation. This helps improve the clamping force and stability of the band 2, ensuring the clamped object is securely held.

[0028] Furthermore, the latching slot 103 has a latching surface 106 , and the latching surface 106 is used to limit the latching portion 104 .

[0029] In this embodiment, the engaging surface 106 within the slot 103 is a specific surface designed to interact with the latch 104 to provide a position-limiting function for the latch 104. The shape and position of the engaging surface 106 are designed based on the shape and insertion direction of the latch 104 to ensure that the latch 104 can be accurately inserted into the slot 103 and effectively restrained by the engaging surface 106. The engaging surface 106 provides a clear position limit for the latch 104, preventing it from easily moving or shaking after insertion into the slot 103. This limiting effect greatly enhances the connection stability between the first connecting portion 102 and the second connecting portion 101 of the American-style clamp housing. In actual use, when the American-style clamp housing is subjected to external forces, the engaging surface 106 prevents the latch 104 from dislodging from the slot 103, thereby maintaining the overall structural integrity of the clamp housing and ensuring that the American-style clamp can be securely fixed in the desired position. The presence of the snap-in surface 106 provides clear direction and position guidance for the clamping portion 104 when inserted into the slot 103. The retaining effect of the snap-in surface 106 helps improve the safety of the American-style clamp housing. When American-style clamps are used to secure critical equipment or in high-risk environments, a reliable connection is crucial. The snap-in surface 106 prevents the clamping portion 104 from accidentally loosening, thereby reducing the risk of safety accidents caused by clamp housing connection failure.

[0030] Furthermore, the slot 103 is arrow-shaped.

[0031] In this embodiment, the card slot 103 is designed to be arrow-shaped, and this unique shape has specific geometric characteristics. The arrow-shaped card slot 103 is usually composed of a wider entrance portion that gradually narrows to form a shape similar to an arrow. In actual use, when the American hoop shell is subjected to external force, the arrow-shaped card slot 103 can provide stronger tensile and shear resistance, ensuring that the connection of the American clamp is stable and reliable. Compared with traditional rectangular or circular card slots 103, the arrow-shaped card slot 103 has a certain sense of design and aesthetics. In some applications with high requirements on appearance, such as decorative fixtures or connecting parts of high-end equipment, the arrow-shaped card slot 103 can add a unique visual effect to the product.

[0032] Furthermore, the main body 1 has two threaded anti-loosening parts 107 , which are located on both sides of the fixing space 105 .

[0033] In this embodiment, two threaded anti-loosening parts 107 are provided on the main body 1, which are located on both sides of the fixing space 105. The fixing space 105 surrounding the band 2 for accommodating the American clamp and the adjusting bolt is used to limit the adjusting bolt and prevent the bolt from falling off.

[0034] An American hoop shell uses an American hoop shell and also includes a hoop band 2. One end of the hoop band 2 is set in the fixed space 105 and is fixedly connected to the cover shell. The other end is a free end and extends into the fixed space 105. The hoop band 2 has a through hole 201. The through holes 201 are arranged in a plurality of rows. The hoop band 2 forms a tightening space 202. The fixing bolt 3 is set in the fixed space 105. The fixing bolt 3 is pressed on the free end. The thread of the fixing bolt 3 is located in the through hole 201.

[0035] In this embodiment, one end of the band 2 is positioned within the fixed space 105 of the American-style hoop shell and fixedly connected to the cover shell, while the other end is free and extends into the fixed space 105. This design allows the band 2 to wrap around the object being clamped, forming a tightening space 202. The band 2 is provided with a plurality of through-holes 201, which provide locations for the fixing bolts 3 to pass through and secure. The fixing bolts 3 are positioned within the fixed space 105 and pressed against the free end of the band 2. Their threaded portions are located within the through-holes 201 of the band 2. By rotating the fixing bolts 3, the tightness of the band 2 can be adjusted, thereby tightening or loosening the object being clamped. The combination of the band 2 and the fixing bolts 3 realizes the tightening function of the American-style hoop shell. By wrapping the band 2 around the object being clamped and securing it with the fixing bolts 3 passing through the through-holes 201, the tightness of the band 2 can be adjusted as needed, ensuring that the object being clamped is securely fixed within the tightening space 202. The multiple through-holes 201 on the band 2 and the design of the fixing bolts 3 make the American-style hoop shell adjustable. Depending on the size and shape of the object being hoisted, the fixing bolts 3 can be rotated and the appropriate through-hole 201 position can be selected, thereby adjusting the circumference and tightness of the band 2. This adjustability allows the American-style hoop shell to adapt to objects of varying sizes, improving its versatility and practicality. The fixing bolts 3 are pressed onto the free end of the band 2, providing stable pressure to ensure that the band 2 does not loosen. At the same time, the coordination between the threads and the through-holes 201 makes the fixation more reliable and less likely to slip. This design ensures that the American-style hoop shell maintains good tightening performance during long-term use, improving the stability and reliability of the device.

[0036] The American-style hoop shell is relatively simple to install and remove. Simply wrap the band 2 around the object being hoisted, insert the free end into the securing space 105, and secure it with the securing bolts 3 inserted through the through-holes 201. To remove it, simply loosen the securing bolts 3 to remove the band 2 from the object.

[0037] Furthermore, the clamping groove 103 and the clamping portion 104 are both arrow-shaped. When the fixing bolt 3 rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow, the clamping space 202 is reduced.

[0038] In this embodiment, the card slot 103 and the clamping portion 104 are both arrow-shaped. This unique shape design plays a connecting and fixing role in the American clamp. The arrow-shaped design includes a wider head and a gradually narrowing tail. The arrow shape of the card slot 103 can make the clamping portion 104 easier to insert, and after insertion, it can be more firmly fixed to prevent loosening and detachment. The fixing bolt 3 plays a key role in adjusting the size of the clamping space 202 in the American clamp. When the fixing bolt 3 rotates in the direction of the arrow, a specific mechanical effect will be generated. After the fixing bolt 3 rotates in the direction of the arrow, the clamp 2 is gradually tightened through interaction with the clamp 2, thereby reducing the clamping space 202.
