A pipe coupling for connecting two pipe ends includes: a clamp band which has a longitudinal slot, an inner housing arranged therein, and a clamping mechanism for reducing the internal diameter of the clamp band. The clamp band is designed as a flat single piece and has an outer band portion and inner band portions which are connected to the outer band portion via at least one connection. A connection assembly is provided for securing the inner housing in the clamp band, where the connection assembly includes a first connection part and a second connection part. The first connection part extends into the second connection part, and at least one of the connection parts of the connection assembly is designed to connect the at least first outer band portion to the at least first inner band portion of the clamp band.

Pipe coupling

A pipe coupling or a pipe clamp has an outer clamp band with an outer longitudinal slot, an inner clamp band with an inner longitudinal slot and a tensioning mechanism arranged on the outer clamp band. The inner longitudinal slot is offset in relation to the outer longitudinal slot. A separate flat spanning element is provided on the inner clamp band in order to span the inner longitudinal slot. The spanning element extends from one side of the inner longitudinal slot towards the other side of said longitudinal slot.

Pipe coupling for connecting two pipe ends or pipe clamp for sealing a defective pipe

Brace or pipe clamp with a deformable, essentially cylindrical housing, which has at least one longitudinal slot. The regions of the housing that are situated opposite one another at the longitudinal slot are formed as bent over lugs. The lugs are used to accommodate hollow bolts. The housing can be braced by means of clamping bolts, which penetrate the hollow bolts transversely and are arranged approximately tangentially to the housing, and nuts which can be connected to said clamping bolts. At least one of the clamping bolts is connected directly or indirectly with a handle for manually pretensioning the brace or pipe clamp and/or for operating the clamping bolt.

Brace or pipe clamp

An electron beam generator having an electron emission cathode adopted to be rapidly mounted to an installation, has an electronically insulating support body that is clamped on one side to a metal contact body having a large surface area. At the other side of the electrically insulating support body, a quick release device is arranged in order to rapidly mount and dismount the generator to an installation.
