SHEAR ELEMENT FOR A COUPLING

摘要

A shear element (10, 30, 50, 70, 70A, 90, 90A) for a coupling (110, 112, 114, 50) that couples the ends of high-pressure pipes or high-pressure hoses. The shear element (10, 30, 50, 70, 70A, 90, 90A) includes a plurality of interconnected shear bodies (12, 32, 52, 72, 72A, 92, 92A), each shear body (12, 32, 52, 72, 72A, 92, 92A) including a discrete connector section (14, 34, 54, 74, 74A, 94, 94A) which forms a connection with an adjacent shear body (12, 32, 52, 72, 72A, 92, 92A).
