Abstract
An operator is enabled to easily identify the normal attachment direction of a ground clip and set the ground clip in a correct direction.Provided is a hose attachment structure in which a ground clip is attached over a grounded electroconductive pipe and a flexible hose inserted onto an outer face of the electroconductive pipe, wherein the ground clip includes a coil part that is attached to the outer face of the electroconductive pipe and an outer peripheral surface of the flexible hose and a pair of pinch parts that protrudes from both end parts in an axial direction of the coil part and faces each other, and one pinch part among the pair of pinch parts has an asymmetrically-shaped indicator part having directivity in the axial direction of the coil part.
