A multi-petaled oblique-plane hoop and a pipe connector are described. The hoop is divided into two groups, and the hoop petals in each group are connected by means of pins, and the pins are parallel to a connecting pipe shaft. The groups are connected by using bolts, and the bolts are vertical to a pipe shaft. Each hoop petal is in a shape of a partial ring stud, in which an arc-shaped groove is formed. The upper surface and the lower surface of the groove are symmetrical partial inner cone surfaces, and the hoop petals are connected to form a clamping chain.

An articulating flow line connector for connecting two sections or portions of a flow line, which may be a pressurized flow line. The connector may be configured to provide a sealed connection between the two sections or portions of the flow line, and may provide for a rotating or swiveling connection between the two sections. The articulating flow line connector may generally have a seal carrier ring arranged between two flow lines hubs. Each flow line hub may connect to an end of a flow line section. The seal carrier ring may be configured to provide both a sealing surface and at least one bearing surface. The seal carrier ring may have a sealing flange, a bearing flange, and a web portion extending between the flanges. The connector may additionally have a clamp arranged around or over the seal carrier ring and a portion of the two hubs.

A water heating device equipped with a housing, a fan and a chamber arranged in the interior of the housing, and screws. The housing has first and second side plates which oppose one another in a first direction and extend from the ends of a back plate along a second direction intersecting the first direction. An opening part is provided in the housing on the side opposite the back plate in the second direction. The fan has a discharge opening, a first flow passage extending along the first direction, and a first flange. The chamber has an intake opening, a second flow passage extending along the first direction, and a second flange. The first and the second flanges are secured by screws. In a planar view, the center axis of the screws is slanted such that a head portion is closer to the opening part than the tip-end portion.

A method for manufacturing a pipe conduit arrangement including sticking a pipe stub onto a pipe conduit at least up to the flush state of the of the flange section end-face and the nips conduit end-face, fixing the pipe conduit in the pipe stub in a press fit which is produced by the radial widening of the pipe conduit, and axially clamping the arisen pipe conduit units by way of clamping the flange sections of the pine stubs into the nine conduit arrangement. Also described is a pipe conduit arrangement.

The invention relates to an annular connection clamp with a first clamping flange (22) which protrudes radially inwards and with an axial counter bearing (24) which is spaced from the clamping flange and which is made of a first and a second half-ring segment (20), each half-ring segment having a first and a second segment end. The first segment end of the first half-ring segment (20) has latching means (281) of a first type, and the second segment end of the second half-ring segment has corresponding latching means (282) of a second type, said latching means being pushed into each other in a tangential direction, thereby being latchable together. The second segment end of the half-ring segment (20) has latching means (282) of a second type, and the first segment end of the second half-ring segment (20) has latching means (281) of a first type, said latching means being pushed into each other in a tangential direction, thereby being latchable together.
