Double Ball Biaxial Pipe Coupling
20200378535 · 2020-12-03 ·

A double ball pipe coupling with two axes for connecting fluid pipes or conduits at eccentric angles while reducing or eliminating frictions loss. The coupling also provides movement of pipes or fluid pathways that are under low to high pressures. Two outer shell halves contain two ball joints with protruding connections and or outer fittings for most applications. The shell halves being mostly uniform or oblong or distorted for highly non-collinear connections. The ball joints containing pathways rotate within each shell half while permitting fluid flow as intended while greatly reducing restrictions.

A ball and socket coupling that avoids threaded tightening-components instead has telescoped components that are bonded together. Such a coupling has a hollow seat-formed link, a counterpart hollow ball-formed link, and a socket-forming collar. Both the links have fitting extensions. The ball-formed link has a spherical bulb at one end as the seat-formed link has a conforming, spherically-widening seat surface at one end. The socket-forming collar has a centrally apertured web with a conforming spherically-narrowing socket surface at one end of an axially elongated sleeve. The coupling is adapted to be assembled and bonded into solid rigidity by workers in the field with the spherical bulb bonded to and clamped between the seat-formed link's spherically-widening seat surface and the collar's spherically-narrowing socket surface. In addition, the collar's elongated sleeve is bonded internally to the seat-an outer sidewall of the seat-formed link's seat-formed end.
