Abstract
A joint assembly for connecting a first pipe having a first inner diameter and a second pipe having a second inner diameter which is larger than the first inner diameter comprises, an annular section comprising an annular wall defining a flow path through the annular section and configured to connect to the first pipe and the second pipe, and a clamp portion configured to clamp the second pipe between an outer surface of the annular section and an inner surface of the clamp portion. An inner diameter of the annular section varies from a first inner diameter at a first end of the annular section to a second inner diameter at a second end of the annular section. The first inner diameter is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the first pipe. The second inner diameter is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the second pipe.
