Patent attributes
The invention relates to a retaining clamp (2) for securing objects, in particular gas storage cylinders (1) for airbags, having a clamping ring (3) which encircles the object and engages around the object in a clamping manner in particular by means of mechanical deformation upon installation (clamping means 11) and, in the process, bears with at least one contact surface (16) against the object, the contact surface (16) being provided at least in some regions with a roughening (17) which improves the retaining effect between the retaining clamp (2) and the object, and/or having a clamping securing bolt (press-in screw 5) which extends through an opening (40) of the clamping ring (3) and has a head (9) lying in the interior of the clamping ring (3), the head (9) having at least one rotation-preventing edge (38) which is arranged opposite the inside (36) of the clamping ring (3) in order to prevent rotation of the clamping securing bolt (press-in screw 5).
