Embodiment Construction

[0047] figure 1 A connecting joint according to the invention is shown, which is generally designated by reference numeral 2 .

[0048] The connection joint 2 is adapted to form a connection between a mating end piece 4 of a first piping element and a flat end piece 6 of a second piping element, the connector 2 comprising a locking ring 8 , a mating lug 10 and a locking key 12 .

[0049] The connection joint 2 defines a central axis X-X. In the following, the expressions "radially", "axially" and "circumferentially" are used with respect to that central axis X-X.

[0050] The mating end piece 4 comprises a mating end 14 (see figure 2 ), and a connecting flange (not shown) opposite to the mating end 14, for example for joining to an adjacent piping system element. The mating end piece 4 is intended to house the end of the butt end piece 6 inside. Accordingly, the mating end piece 4 has an inner diameter which is larger than the outer diameter of the plain end piece. The m...

Abstract

The pipe connector restricts central axis (X-X), including: locking elements (38), having locking surface (42) which moves relative to central axis (X-X) between a released and a locking positions in radial direction; a docking flange (10), which make the locking element move between the released and locking positions; bevel (46); and a drive element (50) for the bevel. The bevel inclines around the central axis (X-X) in a circumferential direction; the drive element is suitable for the rotation of the docking flange to make the locking element move between the released and locking positions.The utility model is used in connector which has flat end parts made of plastic material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a connection joint between mating end pieces and flat end pieces, said connection joint being of the type defining a central axis and comprising: [0002] - at least one locking element having a locking surface movable radially with respect to the central axis between a released position and a locked position in which the lock The tight surface is disengaged from the outer surface of the flat end piece, and in the above locked position, the locking surface is attached to the outer surface of the flat end piece, [0003] - a butt lug adapted to move the or each locking element between its released and locked positions, [0004] - at least one bevel arranged on one of the locking element or the abutment flange, [0005] - A drive for the or each ramp arranged on the other of the locking element or the abutment lug. [0006] This connector is especially intended for connecting tubular tubing elements made of cast iron or any othe...
