Abstract
The present invention is a suction hose clip for connecting an accessory hose, an accessory cable or the like to the suction hose of a vacuum cleaning device. The clip is generally ring-shaped with an open side defining two opposing ends. The clip has an accessory receiving area positioned generally opposite to the open side. Oppositely facing hook portions are provided at the two opposing ends and engage with each other to provide a hook over hook closure to close the clip around a suction hose. A rib projects from the inner wall of the clip to engage the corrugated surface of a suction hose and keep the clip from sliding along the length of the suction hose.
