Fitting for pipes and relevant pipe connecting method
A fitting for a pipe is disclosed. It includes a main body for internally accommodating the pipe, fastening means able to be tightened to the main body, a deformable annular sealing gasket and a blocking ring nut which can be positioned within the fitting between the main body and the fastening means, respectively, to ensure the sealing of, and block in firm position, the pipe, at least when the fastening means are tightened to the main body, the blocking ring nut being elastically deformable in radial direction. The fitting also has means for retaining in a widened position at least the mouth section of the annular sealing gasket, with an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of the pipe.

Tube connector systems
A connector system includes a fitting body (104) and a union nut (106). A cutting ring (102) is disposed proximate within the fitting body and union nut. The cutting ring includes a first end (136) engaging with the fitting body and having at least one cutting edge, a second end engaging with the union nut, and a radially extending collar (140) disposed between the first end and the second end. The collar having an annular radial surface facing the first end and an annular groove (144) is defined within the radial surface. A cylindrical outer surface having a first diameter is disposed between the radial surface and the first end, and a transition area is defined from the outer surface towards the radial surface. The transition area being angled radially inward such that the transition area has a second diameter that is less than the first diameter. An elastomeric seal (146) is disposed within the annular groove.

Joint pipe
A pipe joint allowing reliable connection to a pipe P without flaring. The pipe joint includes a flare joint body 1F, a cap nut 2, and a stop ring 3. A curved pressure-contacting slope surface 32 of the stop ring 3 contacts a slope surface 5 with reduced-diameter tip of the flare joint body 1F under pressure to establish sealing by means of mutual contact between metallic surfaces. The pipe P is grasped in a tightly pressure-contacting state using a back tooth and a front tooth formed at a tip head 37 of a substantially cylindrical thin part 35 of the stop ring 3.
