Abstract
A device for tapping a conduit, which conducts a flowing fluid, comprises a housing, which has a principal part, a fixing part running flush with the principal part for fixing to the conduit and an outlet part for discharging fluid from the tapped conduit. A rotating cutting device is provided in the principal part, said device being displaceable from a retracted first position into an extended second position, in which a section of the wall is cut out of the conduit. A telescopic shaft, which is fixed on one side to the principal part and on the other side to the cutting device, is provided. The telescopic shaft has at least two segments that can be displaced in relation to each other in a sealed manner and is fixed to the principal part in a sealed manner. The telescopic shaft does not protrude beyond the principal part as a result of its axial extensibility or retractability, thus ensuring a compact construction and ease of use.
