Abstract

551,566. Pipe joints and closures. AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCTS CO., Ltd., and CHRISTIE, W. Nov. 28, 1941, No. 15378. [Classes 99 (i) and 99 (ii)] A detachable end closure or coupling - device for pipes and tubes comprises a tubular housing 10 into which the pipe &c. 12 is inserted through an aperture 11 at one end, towards a closure wall 13 at the other end, the pipe passing through an annular piston 16 and its sealing- washer 21, so that pressure fluid admitted to the pipe &c. for example for testing purposes, forces the piston away from the closure wall 13 so as to compress on to the pipe a split conical sleeve 17 engaging a conical recess in the piston. A cup-like member 22 serves to locate the washer, and is formed with a diametral slot to allow passage of the pressure fluid. A spring 20 releases the piston and clamping- device when the pressure fluid is released. The closures 13 are formed with screwed sockets 14, one of which serves for admitting the pressure fluid, while the other is fitted with a plug 27 and sealing-member 28. Small openings 29 are provided for the release of air when the plug 27 is loosened slightly. The inner surface of the split sleeve 17 may be serrated.
