Abstract:
1. A vibration-proof pipe clamp for clamping elongated pieces such as pipes, comprising: a pipe clamp member made of hard resin and defining a plate-shaped base having two edges, a pipe clamp portion for locking the elongated pieces being formed on an upper surface of the base, a side portion formed on, and extending downwardly from, each of the two edges of the base, two arm portions including two pendent portions formed on a bottom of the base intermediate the side portions, the arm portions extending downwardly from the base, the two arm portions further including two horizontal portions extending transversely from respective lower edges of the pendent portions so that respective tip portions of the horizontal portions approach one another, a mounting member made of hard resin including a mounting portion for mounting fastened members, the mounting member further including an upper side portion having two ends and being spaced upwardly by two side portions extending upwardly from respective edges of a lower side portion, the side portions joining respective edges of the upper side portion and the lower side portion, the pipe clamp member and the mounting member being oriented relative to one another so that respective side portions of the pipe clamp member and the mounting member are generally coplanar, and so that a space is defined between the bottom of the base of the pipe clamp member and the upper side portion of the mounting member, a detachment prevention structure for inhibiting detachment of the pipe clamp member from the mounting member, wherein the detachment prevention structure having a T-shaped portion including a prism portion that extends upward from the upper side portion of the mounting member so that the prism portion is disposed between respective tip portions of the horizontal portions of the two arm portions, and a flat plate portion that extends transversely from an upper edge of the prism portion so that the two arm portions extend about the flat plate portion, and an elastic connection member made of soft resin and being packed in the space so that it surrounds the T-shaped portion and the arm portions, and so that it extends between respective coplanar side portions of the pipe clamp member and the mounting member, whereby the pipe clamp member and the mounting member do not make direct contact.
