Abstract

1,101,074. Tube joints. POWER AUXILIARIES Ltd. 12 March, 1965 [19 March, 1964], No. 11699/64. Heading F2G. Tubes 1 and 2, or members fixed thereto are coupled by tubular bellows 3 of circumferentially undulated metal, welded or otherwise sealingly connected thereto, around which extends a shell 6 fixed at one end to the pipe 1 or corresponding member and having at the other end a sphericalzone bearing-surface 9 which has its centre A on the axis of the other tube or member and co-operates with an oppositely-facing sphericalzone bearing-surface 10 fixed on the other tube or member so as to permit mutual swivel movement of the tubes or members about any axis passing through the centre of a sphere but to prevent movement of the tubes away from each other axially. A tapered baffle sleeve 4 is joined to the upstream tube 1. Fig. 2 (not shown) illustrates an alternative construction in which the sleeve 4 is omitted and complementary spherical-zone bearing-rings are provided instead of the ball 13 and races 9 and 10 shown in Fig. 1.
