A pipe connection for use in a ventilating duct system having ducts with circular cross-section is adapted to be inserted with a close fit into an outer pipe and be connected therewith. The pipe connection has a circumferential groove, in which a circumferential seal sealing against the inside of the outer pipe is arranged. A terminal edge portion of the pipe connection comprises an outer conical portion which has a diameter decreasing towards the end of the pipe connection, and a circumferential guide surface having such a diameter that said close fit is obtained. The axial length (L3) of the terminal edge portion constitutes about 1.5-5.5% of the diameter of the guide surface. The outer conical portion at its end has a diameter which constitutes about 97-99.9% of the diameter of the guide surface.

Sealing rings for ventilation ducts

A tubular element has a sealing ring mounted at an end of the tubular element. The sealing ring has a base clamped against the outer surface of the tubular element. Further, the sealing ring has a sealing lip adapted to seal against an inner surface of an outer tube, in which the tubular element is inserted. The base is disposed in a groove that is formed in the wall of the tubular element. The sealing ring has a further lip that is positioned adjacent to the end of the tubular element and that is bent down and clamped against the base by means of the end portion, thereby providing secure fastening of the sealing ring. The sealing ring is fastened by a method involving bending of the end portion of the tubular element together with the further lip.

Tubular element with sealing means and a method for manufacturing the tubular element

A device for coupling together pipes, which at their end have an outwardly directed bead, comprises an annular clamping strap (1) and a clamping mechanism (4-6) arranged at the ends (2a, 2b) of the clamping strap. Between the ends (2a, 2b) of the clamping strap (1), a sealing element (7) is arranged for sealing the joint between the ends (2a, 2b).

Device for the coupling together of pipes

In a method of coupling a first pipe with a second pipe having a circumferential bead, use is made of an annular clamping band which is applied on the outside of the end beads and is tightened around the end beads when the pipes are placed end to end. The clamping band has on its inside a sealing ring, which is arranged against the end beads. A first recess of the sealing ring is formed on and held on the outside of the end bead of the first pipe in such a manner that a second recess of the sealing ring is arranged axially outside this end bead. The second recess of the sealing ring is then formed on the end bead of the second pipe, and finally the clamping band is tightened around the end beads with the sealing ring placed between the clamping band and the end beads.
