<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent leakage and improve durability by drastically improving a structure of connecting a bellows pipe and another pipe, stabilizing the structure and suppressing deformation of the parts. SOLUTION: This bellows pipe 2 formed out of a plurality of recessions 2a on a pipe wall surface is connected to another pipe 5. This connection structure is composed of a split ring 11 fitted in one of the circular recessions of the bellows pipe, a backing member 12 fitted around the outer periphery of the bellows pipe, and abutted against the split ring on the opposite side of the pipe 5, a flange 13 arranged on the pipe 5, and a spacer 14 arranged between the flange and the split ring. The split ring, backing member, flange and spacer have plate-like forms and samely shaped at their outer surface. They are unitely connected to each other without clearances by means of fastening members 21, 22 penetrating therethrough.</p> |
