Arrangement with a metal pipe and a connecting element, as well as method of mounting the connecting element

摘要

An arrangement is provided for a helically undulated pipe made of metal, which has an end face extending along a turn of the thread of its undulation and a connecting element to be fastened to the pipe. The connecting element includes a pipe piece which has a helically extending inner surface corresponding to the turn of the thread of the undulation of the pipe. The pipe piece is mounted on the pipe in the undulation of the pipe. A metal ring is arranged on the pipe piece, where the pipe piece has sections with different inner diameters arranged one behind the other in the axial direction.

1. Method of mounting a connecting element at an end of a helically corrugated pipe of metal where said helically corrugated pipe of metal has an end face extending along a helical turn of a helical thread formed from its corrugation and
where said connecting element to be fastened to the pipe includes a pipe piece of metal which has a helically extending inner surface corresponding to the helical thread of the corrugation of the pipe, and a smooth cylindrical outer surface, said method comprising the steps of: initially severing the pipe at an end along a screw thread with a cut in axial direction of the pipe connecting a beginning and an end of the helical thread after one revolution; a pipe piece of metal, which is provided with a helically extending inner surface and has a non-corrugated cylindrical outer surface, is subsequently screwed onto the pipe; subsequently a metal ring, which has two sections with different inner diameters, is pushed onto the pipe piece with a section of said metal ring having the greater diameter, which rests with its section having the smaller diameter on the pipe, and has on this section an end face corresponding to said helical turn of the thread of the pipe and extending along a helical line; the ring is then welded at its helically extending end face to the end face of the pipe; and that the ring is finally welded to the pipe piece.
