Also, although the first to fourth elastic claws 65 to 69 are formed with one to two pieces relative to the respective first to fourth holding portions 61 to 64, the elastic claws 65 to 69 are not limited to the above.

(Elastic Member 40)

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the elastic member 40 is formed as the separate body from the attaching portion 50, and is attached to the attaching portion 50 so as to prevent the transmission of the vibration between the attached member 20 and the tubular objects P1 to P4. The elastic member 40 is integrally molded by soft resin compared to the clip main body 30, for example, the soft resin such as thermoplastic elastomer and the like.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 14, the elastic member 40 comprises the following respective portions.

Incidentally, each portion of the elastic member 40 is not limited to the following (1) to (3).

(1) Communication Hole 41

As shown in FIG. 18, a communication hole 41 communicates into the insert hole 51 of the attaching portion 50 of the clip main body 30. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 11, 12, and 13, the elastic member 40 passes through up and down, and is formed in the oval shape in the same manner as the insert hole 51.

Incidentally, although the oval shape is illustrated as an example of the shape of the communication hole 41, the shape of the communication hole 41 is not limited to the above, and may be formed in the shape of the ellipse or the circle, or the square.

(2) Vibration-Proof Portions 42

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the vibration-proof portions 42 elastically abut against the locking pieces 53. Specifically, the vibration-proof portions 42 are formed as a pair on both sides of the right and left of the communication hole 41 in FIG. 12, and extend downward in a plate shape. The vibration-proof portions 42 are inserted into the insert hole 51 through the insertion holes 55 of the attaching portion 50 so as to be pushed into an interval between the locking pieces 53 and the projecting portions 52a of the side walls 52.

Also, as shown in FIG. 1, inside the vibration-proof portions 42, there are formed hollow portions 42a. The hollow portions 42a are formed in a pouch shape opening upward.

Incidentally, although the vibration-proof portions 42 are formed as a pair, the number of the vibration-proof portions 42 is not limited to the above, and may be formed with one piece, or three or more pieces.

(3) Abutting Portions 43

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, abutting portions 43 elastically abut against the attached member 20. Specifically, the abutting portions 43 are positioned in up-and-down directions of the communication hole 41 in FIG. 11. A thickness of the abutting portions 43 gradually increases toward right-and-left both side directions from the center in FIG. 10, and an upper surface of the abutting portions 43 is concaved in the approximately V shape.

The abutting portions 43 overlap on upper surfaces of the elastic pieces 54 of the attaching portion 50, and elastically abut against the attached member 20.

(Assembly Method)

Next, an assembly method of the clip main body 30 and the elastic member 40 comprising the aforementioned structure will be explained.

As shown in FIGS. 1, and 15 to 17, a pair of the vibration-proof portions 42 of the elastic member 40 is inserted while conforming to each insertion hole 55 of the attaching portion 50. When the vibration-proof portions 42 are inserted, the vibration-proof portions 42 protrude to the inside of the insert hole 51 through the insertion holes 55 so as to be pushed into the interval between the locking pieces 53 and the projecting portions 52a of the side walls 52.

At that time, the communication hole 41 communicates into the insert hole 51. Also, the abutting portions 43 overlap on the upper surfaces of the elastic pieces 54 of the attaching portion 50.

(Usage Method)

Next, a usage method of the clip 10 in an assembled state will be explained.

The tubular objects P1 to P4 may be placed in the first to fourth holding portions 61 to 64 of the clamp portion 60 of the clip 10 beforehand, or the tubular objects P1 to P4 may be placed after the clip 10 is attached to the attached member 20.

In order to attach the clip 10 to the attached member 20, the stud bolt 21 may be relatively inserted while conforming to the communication hole 41 of the elastic member 40. When the stud bolt 21 is inserted, an end portion thereof proceeds to the insert hole 51 of the attaching portion 50 from the communication hole 41 so as to be pushed into the interval of a pair of the locking pieces 53.

Here, when the stud bolt 21 is relatively strongly inserted, a pair of the locking pieces 53 is pushed by an outer circumference of the stud bolt 21, and as shown in FIG. 18, the locking pieces 53 bend at the center of the hinge portions 53a, so that the opposing interval of both the locking pieces 53 expand. Consequently, the stud bolt 21 proceeds inside the opposing interval of both the locking pieces 53.

After that, at a position wherein the abutting portions 43 of the elastic member 40 elastically abut against the attached member 20, an insertion of the stud bolt 21 reaches a limit, and the claw portions 53b of both the locking pieces 53 mesh with the screw groove of the stud bolt 21 so that the stud bolt 21 cannot come out of the insert hole 51. Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 19, the clip 10 is fixed to the attached member 20 through the stud bolt 21.

(Vibration-Transmission Prevention Function)

Next, a vibration-transmission prevention function by the clip 10 fixed to the attached member 20 will be explained.

As shown in FIG. 19, as for a vibration-transmission route, the following two routes are conceivable.

(1) First Route L1

Citing an example of the third tubular object P3, there is the first route L1 which passes through the clamp portion 60, the attaching portion 50 (the elastic pieces 54), the abutting portions 43 of the elastic member 40, and the attached member 20. In the first route L1, the transmission of the vibration can be prevented due to the elasticity of the abutting portions 43 of the elastic member 40.

Incidentally, as the vibration between the attached member 20 and the tubular object P3, for example, in a case when the tubular object P3 is considered as a generation source of the vibration, for example, pulsation of a liquid flowing inside the tubular object P3 is conceivable.

Also, in a case when the attached member 20 is considered as the generation source of the vibration, for example, an engine vibration of the automobile, or a vibration at a time of driving is conceivable.

(2) Second Route L2

A second route L2 is a route passing through the clamp portion 60, the locking pieces 53 of the attaching portion 50, the stud bolt 21, and the attached member 20. In the second route L2, the transmission of the vibration can be prevented due to the elasticity of the vibration-proof portions 42 of the elastic member 40.

Second Embodiment

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be explained using FIG. 20.

A characteristic of the present embodiment is that the number of vibration-proof portions 102 of an elastic member 100 is increased.

The vibration-proof portions 102 are respectively positioned on both sides of the right and left of a communication hole 101 in FIG. 20, and are formed in an approximately downward “C” shape, or the “C” shape. The vibration-proof portions 102 are formed in a leg-like manner with a total of four pieces.

Abutting portions 103 face perpendicular to the vibration-proof portions 102, i.e., are respectively positioned on both sides of the front and back of the communication hole 101 in FIG. 20.

Incidentally, the number of the vibration-proof portions 102 is not limited to the four pieces, and may be provided with five or more pieces.

Third Embodiment

Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be explained using FIG. 21.

A characteristic of the present embodiment is that the elastic pieces 54 on a clip main body 30 side of the first embodiment in FIG. 3 explained earlier, are omitted, and that as shown in FIG. 21, angular elastic pieces 123a are formed in an elastic member 120.

Incidentally, as is the case with the first embodiment explained earlier using FIGS. 1 to 19, an attaching portion 110 comprises an insert hole 111, side walls 112, and locking pieces 113. The locking pieces 113 comprise hinge portions 113a, claw portions 113b, and inclined portions 113c. Also, the elastic member 120 comprises a communication hole 121, vibration-proof portions 122, and an abutting portion 123 in addition to the elastic pieces 123a.

Although it is not shown in the figures, the elastic pieces 123a elastically abut against the attached member so as to allow the over-stroke.

Fourth Embodiment

Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be explained using FIG. 22.

A characteristic of the present embodiment is that the clip 10 is molded by a two-material formation using the hard resin and the soft resin.

Specifically, as is the case with the first embodiment explained earlier using FIGS. 1 to 19, the clip 10 comprises the following structure as shown in FIG. 22.

(1) Attaching Portion 130

As shown in FIG. 22, an attaching portion 130 includes locking pieces 133 which are locked in the stud bolt (not shown in the figure) provided in the attached member (not shown in the figure).

(2) Clamp Portion (not Shown in the Figure)

Although it is not shown in the figure, the clamp portion connects to the attaching portion 130, and includes the holding portion holding the tubular object.

As shown in FIG. 22, the attaching portion 130 comprises the following structure.

(3) Insert Hole 131

As shown in FIG. 22, the insert hole 131 is for inserting the stud bolt (not shown in the figure).

(4) A Pair of Side Walls 132

As shown in FIG. 22, a pair of side walls 132 faces each other by sandwiching the insert hole 131.

(5) A Pair of Locking Pieces 133

As shown in FIG. 22, a pair of the locking pieces 133 connects to the side walls 132 through thin-walled hinge portions 133a, and protrudes to the inside of the insert hole 131 so as to be locked in the stud bolt (not shown in the figure).

Incidentally, the locking pieces 133 comprise claw portions 133b and inclined portions 133c in addition to the hinge portions 133a.

(6) Upper Wall 134, Elastic Pieces 135 (Abutting Portions)

As shown in FIG. 22, an upper wall 134 is positioned on the upper surface of the attaching portion 130, and elastically abuts against the attached member (not shown in the figure).

As is the case with the angular elastic pieces 123a of the third embodiment explained earlier using FIG. 21, the elastic pieces 135 protrude in a square shape from the upper surface of the upper wall 134, and elastically abut against the attached member (not shown in the figure) so as to allow the over-stroke.

The upper wall 134 and the elastic pieces 135 function as the abutting portions. The abutting portions elastically abut against the attached member (not shown in the figure).

Incidentally, although the abutting portions are structured by both the upper wall 134 and the elastic pieces 135, the abutting portions are not limited to the above, and may be structured by either one of the upper wall 134 and the elastic pieces 135.

In the attaching portion 130, the aforementioned hinge portions 133a, the upper wall 134, and the elastic pieces 135 are molded by the soft synthetic resin.

The rest of the attaching portion 130 is molded by relatively hard synthetic resin. Incidentally, in FIG. 22, the reference numeral 132a represents projecting portions.
