Abstract
Abstract A safety cable clamp for securing hose ends to an adjoining metal coupling sleeve, such as that found on a variety of machinery where high pressure air or water is pumped through a hose, comprising cylindrical bands which fit over and are secured over the hose ends at opposite sides of the hose coupling, with the bands conjoined by a braided flexible cable with closed end eyelets, one end of the cable interconnecting directly with a band, and the other end secured to a snap hook which connects the remaining band.

In a removably connected high pressure hose-ends coupling for two hose ends, the combination comprising two metal bands, one of said bands being detachably secured to one of said hose ends and the other of said bands secured to the other of said hose ends, an assemblyable and disassemblyable male-female hose coupling sleeve means connecting said hose ends, a flexible safety cable detachably extending between and secured to said bands, and said flexible safety cable means being so detachable from the one of said bands without disassembling said coupling sleeve.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
72 words
A high pressure hose-ends coupling combination as defined in claim 1, and characterized further by the flexible safety cable means being a braided rope means and having one of its ends permanently secured to one of said bands and the other of its ends having a disengageable securing means secured thereto for thereby detachably securing that other end to the other of said clamps without having to disassemble either of said bands.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
118 words
In safety connecting coupler for connecting high pressure hose ends, comprising a screw-threaded rigid male-female union coupler connector sleeve means over a portion of which each hose end is inserted and secured, a removable clamp-holder band means over each of said hose ends and secured thereto for removably securing the hose ends onto the union coupler, the combination therewith of a flexible cable means secured to and extending between each of said clamp band means, and with one end of said cable means being detachably fastened onto one of said clamp bands, and with said cable means being adapted to be detached at its detachable end without a first removal of either of said clamp holder band means.
