CLAMP FOR COUPLING TWO METALLIC PIPE

摘要

PURPOSE: To join pipes homogeneously by an annular open ring having an inverted V-shaped cross-section and an opening, and providing bearing elements for tightening and holding the ring in its closed position at the ends of the opening. CONSTITUTION: The clamp body formed by bending a metal sheet is constituted by an open ring 1 having an inverted V-shaped cross-section. The open ring 1 has a projecting leaf 2 consisting of bearing elements for tightening and holding respectively at each end of its opening. The projecting leaf 2 is folded in radial direction so as to project outwardly from the clamp. The projecting leaf 2 is constituted by a bolt 3 and a nut 4 for tightening and holding the ring in its closed position. As a result, it is possible to join two metal pipes quickly and entirely homogeneously.
