Abstract
A ring member is disposed on a ring member mounting position. The ring member mounting position is a region between a pair of locking walls and is formed in a straight pipe shape. The ring member is in a substantially C shape with an opening at a part of its circumferential direction. The ring member may also be formed in a ring shape being connected at ring member joint parts. The ring member includes a reduced diameter part and first click parts protruding from the reduced diameter part substantially parallel in the pipe axial direction to form a slide guide. The ring member also includes second click parts of which outer diameters expand gradually from the reduced diameter part toward their tip ends. A male fitting part and a female fitting part are fitted with each other using the above ring member to obtain an electrical conduit. A connection structure for the electrical conduits, a bell block, a method for connecting electrical conduits, a method for connecting an electrical conduit and a bell block, a pipe coupling, and a ring member can be obtained thereby. The present invention can also provide a double-wall conduit of which an outer conduit is the electrical conduit having the same structures as the male fitting part and the female fitting part, a connection structure for the double-wall electrical conduits, and a conduit line using the connection structure.
