A vibration-damping holding device for holding at least one pipeline having a holding body of a hard-elastic material and a receiving body of a soft-elastic material insertable into said holding body, the holding body having a lower part adapted to be anchored to a carrier plate, an upper part and resilient locking hooks for releasably connecting them to one another in a closed position, the upper and lower parts forming a cavity between them in the closed position for receiving the receiving body. The receiving body also has two parts that can be assembled together to form the body, each of the parts having an outer shell with an outer shape compatible with the cavity in the holding body and at least one semi-annular inner shell that cooperate as a pair with each other to hold a pipeline. The inner shells are connected to the outer shells by a plurality of annularly spaced spring struts that extend radially outward from the inner shell, the struts being V-shaped with the vertices of the V's pointing alternatively towards one side or the other relative to the axis of inner shells and the pipeline.
In a vibration-damping holding device for holding at least one pipeline having a holding body of a hard-elastic material and a receiving body of a soft-elastic material insertable into said holding body, the holding body having a lower part adapted to be anchored to a carrier plate, an upper part and resilient locking means for releasably connecting the parts to one another in a closed position, said upper and lower parts of the holding body forming a cavity between them in said closed position for receiving said receiving body, said receiving body having two parts that can be assembled together to form said receiving body, each of said receiving body parts having an outer shell with an outer shape compatible with the cavity of said holding body and at least one semi-annular inner shell, which inner shells cooperate as a pair with each other to hold a pipeline, wherein the improvement comprises connecting the semi-annular inner shells of said receiving body parts to said outer shells thereof by a plurality of uniformly and annularly spaced spring struts that extend radially outward from said inner shell, said struts being V-shaped, with the vertices of the V's pointing parallel to the axis of said semi-annular inner shells and alternately in opposite directions.
