<p>The present invention provides an improved housing-shaped pipe joint improved and able to augment the quality by avoiding the chattering between the housing and the annular groove and increasing the rigidity of the connection between the pipes irrespective of the groove-forming way being rolling or cutting. For this purpose, the inner peripheral surfaces (9a, 10a) of the flange claws (9, 10) are formed as slant surfaces inclined with respect to the reference line (Z) over the entire length in a peripheral direction of the inner peripheral end portions (9t, 10t). A pair of housings (1, 1) have its respective ends each of which is dividedly formed with a concave portion (16) and a convex portion (17) which can make the relative positioning of the paired housings (1, 1) with respect to each other by being fitted into one another. And there is provided a relative-position adjusting means (B) sets a dimension of the concave portion (16) longer than that of the convex portion (17) in the housing-widthwise direction, can staggeringly move the relative positions of the paired housings (1,1) with respect to each other in a fitting state where the concave portion (16) and the convex portion (17) are fitted into each other to be staggeringly moved in a direction where they are mutually twisted and enables a retaining means (I) to function as they are staggeringly moved.</p> |
