Abstract
The invention relates to a clamping device including a pair of recessed semicylindrical resilient gripping bodies each embedded with a resilient member of harder material than the gripping bodies. The cross section of each resilient member is shaped like a semicircle having flanges at its both side edges, respectively. The diameter of the semicircle is the greatest at the midpoint of a center axis of the reinforcing member and becomes smaller toward the ends thereof. A tubular member is securely clamped inside the recesses and between these bone members by connecting means.
