CA 2169309

An open clamp structure in which overlapping band portions (11a, 11b) are mechanically connected by a spring (25) separate from the clamping band (11); the spring (25) is of low profile having a top portion (26) and lateral portions (27a, 27b) passing over into mutually facing end portions (28a, 28b) which are provided with tongue-like extensions (29a, 29b) adapted to engage in tunnel-shaped embossments (17, 18) in corresponding parts of the clamping band. Means (40, 140) for limiting the extent of stretching to which the spring can be subjected and also providing at the same time a guide function to keep overlapping band portions mutually aligned includes either two tab-like members (41a, 41b) extending in the longitudinal direction within two narrow slot-like openings (42a, 42b) only slightly wider than the thickness of the clamping band and of predetermined length or a tunnel-shaped embossment (141) in the inner band portion extending in an elongated opening (142) of only slightly larger width than the embossment to provide the guide function.
