Abstract: A stopper device includes: a stopper that has an abutting part located at a distal end of a tubular part in the axial direction, and a through-hole penetrating through the abutting part and communicating with the inside of the tubular part; and a screw that has a flange-shaped screw head accommodated in the tubular part, and a shaft projecting toward a proximal end side of the tubular part in the axial direction. The tubular part has a first restricting part that restricts movement of the stopper toward the distal end in the axial direction by being engaged with the screw head. The position of the stopper in the axial direction is changed by inserting a tool in the tubular part through the through-hole and rotating the screw.

Abstract: There is provided a holding device mounted in a mounting hole in a mount member to hold a predetermined member. A base member is mounted in the mounting hole. A bag hooking member is supported rotatably on the base member. The bag hooking member has a holding portion that takes, depending on its rotational positions, a protruding state and a stowed state and that holds the predetermined member in the protruding state. The base member has a frame portion surrounding the bag hooking member, a claw portion extending from one side of the frame portion to be locked on a rear side portion of the mount member, and an erect portion erected from the one side of the frame portion to be locked on the rear side portion in a position lying nearer to the mounting hole than a distal end of the claw portion.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a hose clamp has a leaf spring body, a slit and a first knob piece at one end, and an insertion piece and a second knob piece at the other end. An interlocking piece is formed in the first knob piece, and an engaging holding part is formed in the second knob piece. When the hose clamp is viewed from the outside in the radial direction while the leaf spring body is in a free state of being compressed, the first knob piece and the second knob piece are extended outward in the width direction so as to be separated.
