Joint Seal System & Method
20190170350 · 2019-06-06 ·

A joint seal system and method may include a seal and a band. The seal may be positioned between abutting flanges of two adjacent duct sections. A band may be positioned over the two flanges and the flange interface. The joint seal system and method may be configured to mitigate and/or eliminate leakage of pressure, flue gases, condensate, and/or any other fluid, gas, and/or vapor between abutting flanges of duct sections at a flange interface.

SUBSEA CLAMP CONNECTOR AND SUBSEA CLAMP CONNECTOR ARRANGEMENT COMPRISING SUCH A CLAMP CONNECTOR
20190162338 · 2019-05-30 ·

A subsea clamp connector for connecting the ends of two tubular members to each other, the clamp connector including first and second clamping elements, which are pivotable into a closed position in clamping engagement with the ends of the tubular members; and a replaceable locking unit for locking the clamping elements in the closed position. The locking unit includes an operating shaft, a first retaining member mounted to the operating shaft and configured for engagement with a shoulder on a holding member fixed to the first clamping element, and a second retaining member mounted to the operating shaft and configured for engagement with a shoulder on a holding member fixed to the second clamping element. The locking unit is detachably mountable to the clamping elements by insertion of the operating shaft sideways into slots provided in the holding members.

CLAMP AND GASKET SYSTEM
20240209968 · 2024-06-27 ·

A clamp and gasket system secures adjoining ends of sanitary tubing together. The clamp and gasket system may include a holding member. The holding member holds the gasket to the clamp to prevent or reduce loss of or damage to the gasket. The gasket may be formed from stainless steel and seal against concave surfaces in the ends of the adjoining sanitary tubes.

A clamp for is provided. The clamp has a first arm and second arm both with a pivot end and a lock end that are hingedly coupled. The lock end of the second arm has a seat and a pair of fingers forming a slot. The first arm and the second arm have a radially inwardly facing channel. A lock has a part that extends through a bore of the first arm and rotatingly engages a shoulder. The lock rotates and positions within the slot. The lock has a part that engages the other part and seats in the lock seat. A tamper collar is coupled to the locking device. A member threads through the slot and engages the tamper collar such that the locking device cannot be removed without disengaging the member.
