  • Publication number: 20200124512
    Abstract: A pipe tester connector includes rigid cylindrical member. The rigid cylindrical member defines a first side hole. A continuous flexible cup member includes circular floor portion and a central tubular portion extending upwardly therefrom. A first flexible sleeve extends from the top of the flexible cup. The first flexible sleeve has a folded down first position and a folded up second position, in which it envelopes the end of the first pipe. A first hose clamp secures the flexible sleeve to the pipe. An attachment unit includes a rigid insert, an attachment pipe, a first adapter and an attachment. The rigid insert is disposed against the tubular portion of the interior surface of the flexible cup. The rigid insert defines a hole in alignment with the first side hole and the second side hole, through which the attachment pipe passes. An adapter is affixed to the attachment pipe.

  • Patent number: 9982823
    Abstract: A pipe coupling includes a rigid cylindrical member, a flexible cylindrical member and a hose clamp. The flexible cylindrical member includes a central tubular member within the rigid cylindrical member. A flexible sleeve extends beyond the rigid cylindrical member and has an inside diameter that is complimentary to a pipe. The sleeve has a first position in which the sleeve is folded back onto the rigid cylindrical member and a second position in which the sleeve is unfolded so as to envelope an end of the first pipe. The central tubular member includes a ledge that has an inside diameter corresponding to an inside diameter of the pipe.
