Abstract
A pressing device comprises a press ring having at least three pivotally interconnected compression jaws. The press ring has a first open configuration, and a second closed configuration. A coupling element extends from each of two jaws for operable connection to a closing device. The closing device shifts the press ring between the configurations, and includes two oppositely disposed pivotal levers. A drive device is operably engageable with each of the levers, for pivoting the levers and thereby causing the ring to be shifted between the configurations.
