<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pipe connecting structure in which air-tightness can be maintained even when a high temperature fluid is transferred, or even when a shaft deviation occurs between pipes. <P>SOLUTION: A connector 1 has the structure in which a connecting member 22 is disposed between a first pipe 2 and a second pipe 4. First and second concavities 14, 18 are formed in the tip of the first and second pipes 2, 4. First and second convexities 28, 30 projecting along the first and second concavities 14, 18 are formed in the connecting member 22. The first and second convexities 28, 30 are in a close contact with the first and second convexities 14, 18. A through-hole 32 of the connecting member 22, a passage 16 of the first pipe 2, and a passage 20 of the second pipe 4 always communicate with one another. Opening ends 16a, 20a, 32a, 32b are formed so as not be exposed from the connecting portion with the first and second pipes 2, 4, and the connecting member 22. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
