Abstract
A clamping device is provided in which an other end portion is prevented from being excessively displaced in the transition from a clamped state to an unclamped state. A clamping device includes a one end portion having a locked part at a tip, an other end portion having a locking part capable of locking the locked part, a middle portion continuous with the one end portion and with the other end portion, and an insertion hole (H1, H2) allowing a flexible tube T to be inserted therethrough. An unclamped state is established when the locked part locked is unlocked by bending the other end portion such that the other end portion is displaced from the one end portion. The clamping device is configured to clamp the flexible tube T in a clamped state where a first projection and a second projection are positioned close to each other and to intercept a flow of a fluid at a clamped position. The clamping device further includes displacement-restricting members capable of restricting the displacement of the other end portion in a transition from the clamped state to the unclamped state.
