Abstract
There is disclosed an accumulator filter and conduit clamp assembly of the type to be applied to an apertured conduit. The assembly includes a filter unit and a conduit clamp integrally joined to the filter unit. The conduit clamp includes a pair of relatively rigid arms having inner surfaces contoured in general correspondence to the outer transverse dimension of the conduit, resilient hinge means joining the inner ends of the arms together including an arcuate inwardly projecting portion arranged to engage and exert a compressive force against the outer surface of the conduit, and latch means at the free ends of the arms for locking the free ends together. A projection extends inwardly from one of the arms and is dimensioned for being received by the conduit aperture. The projection includes a through aperture for communicating the filter unit with the conduit.
