20090051166	Clamp-fitting stop - A holding device for securing a hose clamp in position relative to a tubular fitting connection over which a hose, tube, or pipe is to be positioned. The device is adapted to hold the clamp and maintain the clamp in position on the hose, tube, or pipe. The clamp is positioned orthogonally relative to the hose, tube, or pipe and the assembly is then ready for engagement on a rigid tubular fitting with the holding device positioned on the hose, tube, or pipe adjacent to the tubular fitting. This permits the hose, tube, or pipe to be engaged over the tubular fitting and the holding device to engage the tubular fitting.	02-26-2009
20080282509	Self gauging clamp - A hose clamp is provided that contains a built in gage feature to provide visual indication to the installer that the clamp is properly tensioned (crimped) by the installer. The clamp does away with the detrimental effects of a long tongue and over-band, and makes use of the tongue exiting through the band as a visual aid for correct installation. The clamp of the present invention eliminates the need for a separate gage to verify installation.	11-20-2008
