Description

P31052NL00/CHO Title: Pipe clip
The present invention relates to a pipe clip for fastening a pipe to a wall, ceiling or other support surface, the pipe clip comprising a substantially annular pipe clip body which in use surrounds the pipe to be fastened and has a first and a second flange which in use are pulled towards each other by means of a male fastening element having a shank and a 5 head, wherein the first flange comprises or is associated with a female fastening element for cooperating with the shank of the male fastening element, and wherein the second flange is provided with a through hole for passing through the shank of the male fastening element.
In the art pipe clips are known where the first flange is provided with a threaded bore and the second flange is provided with a through hole. The male fastening element is a 10 screw with a screw thread provided on the shank that can cooperate with the inner thread of the threaded bore. The head of the screw engages the second flange such that the two flanges are tightened together when the screw is screwed in the threaded bore.
An inconvenience of these kind of pipe clips is that in use the fitter has to arrange the pipe in the pipe clip body and then keep the pipe clip in a closed state around the pipe while 15 inserting a screw through the through hole in the second flange and screw the shank into the threaded hole in the other flange.
From the prior art there is known a solution where in a pre-mounting state a screw shank is passed through the hole in the flange and then a ring shaped element such as an elastic band is clamped around the shank, such that the shank cannot be withdrawn 20 inadvertently from the through hole. This ring shaped element can cause inconvenience when the flanges are tightened towards each other by tightening the screw into the other flange, because eventually the shank must advance through the ring shaped element when it abuts the flange with the female fastening element.
The present invention has for an object to provide an improved pipe clip.
25 This object is achieved by a pipe clip according to the preamble of claim 1, wherein a sticker is adhered to the second flange, which sticker is provided with a perforation which is aligned with the through hole in the second flange, wherein the perforation has a diameter which is smaller than the diameter of the shank of the male fastening element.
In a pre-assembly state the shank of the male fastening element is passed through 30 the perforation in the sticker and the through hole in the second flange. Because the perforation has a smaller diameter than the shank, the sticker material around the perforation will deform and tightly engage the shank. Thereby the sticker provides a retention means to keep the male fastening element attached to the second flange as long -2- as this element is not fixed into the female fastening element of the first flange. The fitter does not have to fear that the male fastening element is lost during fitting and can readily bring the shank in engagement with the female fastening element after the pipe clip has been closed around the pipe.
5 With regard to the mentioned elastic band or other ring shaped element that is arranged around the shank according to the prior art, the sticker provides the advantage that it does not hamper the tightening of the flanges together as the resitance against a rotating movement of the shank is low.
In a possible embodiment the diameter of the perforation in the sticker has a 10 diameter which is considearbly smaller than the diameter of the male fastening element, preferably about half of the diameter of the shank. In this way it is ensured that the shank is engaged tightly by the sticker material around the perforation.
In a possible embodiment the male fastening element is a screw having a threaded shank, wherein preferably the female fastening element is constituted by a threaded bore in 15 the first flange, which can cooperate with the thread on the shank of the screw.
The pipe clip may comprise two pipe clip halves.
The invention furthermore relates to a pipe clip half for constituting an annular pipe clip together with an opposing pipe clip half, wherin the pipe clip half comprises a semicircular body and at least on one end of said body a flange provided with a through hole for 20 passing through the shank of a male fastening element, wherein a sticker is adhered to said flange, which sticker is provided with a perforation which is aligned with the through hole in the flange, wherein the perforation has a diameter which is smaller than the diameter of the shank of the male fastening element.
In a possible embodiment, the pipe clip half according to the invention may have 25 flanges on both ends of the semi-circular body, wherein both flanges have a through hole and are provided with a sticker adhered to said flanges, which sticker is provided with a perforation which is located in line with the through hole in the associated flange, wherein the perforation has a diameter which is smaller than the diameter of the shank of the male fastening element. The diameter of the perforation in the sticker(s) has a diameter which is 30 possibly about half the diameter of the shank of the male fastening element(s).
In a possible embodiment of the invention the male fastening element(s) in a preassembly state is inserted through the perforation in the sticker(s) and the through hole in the flange(s).
The invention also relates to a pipe clip comprising a pipe clip half as described in the 35 above, as well as an opposing pipe clip half comprising a semi-circular body which has flanges on both ends of the semi-circular body, wherein both flanges have a threaded hole for cooperating with the shank of the male fastening element.

The invention will be described in further detail in the following description with reference to the drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 shows a top elevational view of a possible embodiment of a pipe clip half according to the invention, 5 Fig. 2 shows a side elevational view of the pipe clip half of Fig. 1,
Fig. 3 shows a side elevational view of the pipe clip according to the invention, and
Fig. 4 shows a top elevational view of a possible embodiment of a sticker according to the invention.
10 In Figs 1 and 2 is shown a pipe clip half 10 for constituting an annular pipe clip together with an opposing pipe clip half 20 as is shown in Fig. 3. The pipe clip half 10 comprises a semi-circular body 11 and has flanges 12 on both ends of the semi-circular body 11, which flanges 12 extend in a substantially radial direction.
In the specific embodiment of Figs 1 and 2 the flanges 12 are the same and both 15 have an identical through hole 13 provided in them. The through hole 13 is in the embodiment shown not circular but has a more elongate shape.
The pipe clip half 20 has has a semi-circular body 21 with radial flanges 22, which are provided with a hole provided with an inner thread for cooperating with the outer thread of the male fastening element, which is typically a screw 30 with a head 31 and a shank 32. 20 It should be noted here that the example shown in the figures is not limitative and that the pipe clip half can have two different flanges. It is also possible that the pipe clip halves each have only one flange and that on the other end the halves are connected by a hinge structure. It is also possible that the pipe clip has an integral annular pipe clip body which can be deformed to arrange it around a pipe, wherein the respective ends of the pipe 25 clip body are provided with an integral flange.
As is best visible in Fig. 1 a sticker 1 is adhered to the flanges 12 on the side which in assembled state faces the opposing flange 22 of the opposing pipe clip half 20. However, the sticker 1 could also be arranged on the other side of the flange 12. The sticker 1 can have any suitable outer contour as long as it fits on the surface of the flange 12. In the 30 example shown the sticker 1 has a more or less rectangular shape, in which the long edges are slightly curved.
The sticker 1 is provided with a perforation 2 in the centre. The centre of the perforation 2 is preferably aligned with the centre of the through hole 13 in the flange 12. That is, the perforation 2 and the through hole 13 have a common central axis. The 35 perforation 2 has a diameter which is smaller than the diameter of the shank 31 of the male fastening element 30. Thus the sticker 1 will retain the shank 31 when it is inserted in the central hole .
-4- ln a possible further embodiment, shown in Fig. 4, there may be provided radial cuts 3 in the sticker T, which extend from the edge of the perforation 2 in a substantially radial direction. This allows the shank 31 of the male fastening element 30 to pass through the perforation 2.
5 The sticker 1 can for example be made from self adhesive plastic. However also other suitable materials are envisaged, such as paper.
