Pipe connection, comprising spring element activated by removal of securing pin

摘要

The pipe (6), in particular a plastic coated pipe for use in a water supply duct, can be joined to a second object with a connecting piece (2) provided with a pipe insertion segment (3). A clamping sleeve (11) is screwed to the outer surface of the connecting element (2) serving as an abutment for a clamping element (13) comprising a toothed inner surface (15) and several axially positioned segments (14) joined with bridges. When a securing pin (21) is removed a spring (17) acts radial on the segments (14) resulting in the toothed area (15) being pressed against the pipe (6).
