Clamp block assembly

A clamp block assembly for securing hydraulic pipes, the clamp block assembly comprising a plurality of unitary clamp blocks of deformable material each having a plurality of sides, opposing end faces, and a through hole extending between said opposing end faces of a respective clamp block for receiving a respective pipe, and a clamp adapted to apply a predetermined load around the plurality of clamp blocks, wherein the clamp includes a first clamp part and a second clamp part adapted to be fastened to the first clamp part, and wherein the through hole in each clamp block is offset with respect to a centreline of the respective clamp block so that the through hole is nearer a first side of the plurality of sides of the clamp block than to a second side opposite the first side, wherein each of the plurality of clamp blocks is adapted to sit with respect to the clamp in a plurality of different orientations of rotation about the respective clamp block centreline, and wherein the clamp and the clamp blocks include co-operating key features to prevent relative movement therebetween wherein the co-operating key features include tongue and groove features, and wherein the co-operating key features extend around the periphery of the sides of the clamp block.

An aircraft including one or more clamp block assemblies in wherein each claim block assembly is for securing hydraulic pipes, each clamp block assembly comprising a plurality of unitary clamp blocks of deformable material each having a plurality of sides, opposing end faces, and a through hole extending between said opposing end faces of a respective clamp block for receiving a respective pipe, and a clamp adapted to apply a predetermined load around the plurality of clamp blocks, wherein the clamp includes a first clamp part and a second clamp part adapted to be fastened to the first clamp part, and wherein the through hole in each clamp block is offset with respect to a centreline of the respective clamp block so that the through hole is nearer a first side of the plurality of sides of the clamp block than to a second side opposite the first side, wherein each of the plurality of clamp blocks is adapted to sit with respect to the clamp in a plurality of different orientations of rotation about the respective clamp block centreline, and wherein the clamp blocks each include flanges projecting from the end faces and extending beyond the sides of the respective clamp block.
