Abstract: Connection system to connect a tubing with a fitting comprises a tubular fitting including an exterior shoulder and an annular groove disposed a distance away from the shoulder, the tubular fitting is configured to be inserted into the tubing to overlie the groove; a clamp including first and second curved sidewalls, a flexible joint connecting a respective first end of the curved sidewalls, clenching means that connects respective second ends of the curved sidewalls, and an annular flange arranged in an internal region of the curved sidewalls; and the annular flange is disposed over the annular groove when the sidewalls are engaged with the shoulder such that the tubing underneath the annular flange is forced into the annular groove by the annular flange when the clamp is in a clamped position.

Abstract: A joint assembly, including a piping, comprises a joint end sleeve, a tightening ring and a nut. The ring has an external truncated-cone shaped surface and an internal cylindrical surface with a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the piping, and an internal cylindrical surface with at least one annular edge to cooperate with at least one annular groove in the sleeve in such a way that an inside diameter of the annular edge is substantially equal to the outside diameter of the piping. The nut has an internal cylindrical surface with a diameter slightly larger than the outside diameter of the piping and is disposed opposite a cylindrical portion of the sleeve when the nut is installed. The smaller outside diameter end of the tightening ring is adjacent the internal cylindrical surface of the nut when the nut is installed. An internal truncated-cone shaped surface of the nut has a larger diameter end a size slightly larger than a smaller outside diameter end of the ring.

Abstract: A joint assembly for flexible and semi-rigid piping, such as high density polyethylene piping or the like. The assembly comprises a joint end sleeve and a nut. The joint end sleeve comprises in series first, second, third and fourth co-axial sections of circular cross-sections. The first and second sections are to be disposed within the end of the piping. The nut, with an internal threaded surface, is made of a material harder than the one used in the piping and with a higher or equal hardness than the one on the joint end sleeve.

Abstract: A connector for a flexible pipe comprises a connector body having an end portion for coupling to a flexible pipe. The end portion includes a frusto-conical portion and an adjacent cylindrical portion. The frusto-conical portion has its widest portion adjacent the cylindrical portion and has a diameter greater than the diameter of the cylindrical portion and forms a radially extending substantially transverse shoulder with the cylindrical portion to force the pipe to form a bulge around the shoulder. The frusto-conical portion has its narrowest portion with a diameter slightly less than the inside diameter of the pipe to facilitate insertion into the pipe. A ring has a cylindrical inner surface with an inside diameter substantially equal to the outside diameter of the pipe. The ring is positioned to overlie the shoulder thereby to compress the bulge against the shoulder and seal the pipe to the connector body.
