Abstract: A pipe coupling for joining adjacent ends of first and second pipe sections. The coupling includes a generally cylindrical sleeve having first and second sides. The sleeve is formed as a sheet which is rolled to form the sleeve, wherein the first side of the sleeve defines a substantially continuous annular corrugation to cooperatively engage an end of a first pipe section. The connection of the pipe coupling to the first pipe section end occurs at a factory. The second side of the sleeve is in the form of a bell and defines a non-corrugated surface which is adapted to slidably receive an end of the second pipe section in the field, to thereby interconnect the adjacent ends of pipe. Gaskets may be provided to further reduce infiltration or exfiltration at the coupling.

Abstract: A coupling for interconnecting adjacent ends of spiral corrugated pipe includes a generally cylindrically shaped body having generally tubular ends extending axially outwardly from a circumferential stop. One of the tubular ends defines a substantially continuous spiral or thread which is adapted to threadably connect to one of the adjacent ends of spiral corrugated pipe. The other tubular end of the coupling defines a sleeve which is adapted to slidably receive the other of the adjacent ends of spiral corrugated pipe within the sleeve to thereby interconnect the adjacent ends of pipe. Gaskets may be provided within the coupling to further reduce infiltration or exfiltration at the coupling. In an alternative embodiment, the coupling includes a generally cylindrically shaped body having generally tubular ends which each define a substantially continuous spiral or thread. The tubular ends are adapted to be threadably connected to adjacent ends of corrugated spiral pipe to form an interconnection therebetween.

Abstract: A profile gasket adapted for forming a seal in a joint between an annular band and annularly grooved ends of two pipes positioned end-to-end. The profile gasket comprises a sheet of elastomeric material having a bottom surface with at least two integrally molded and laterally spaced ridges running along its length.

Abstract: A telescopic joint in low pressure corrugated plastic pipe. The joint includes a one-piece elastomeric gasket which functions as a seal between the telescoped pipes. The gasket has a sealing portion adapted to be disposed in a groove in one of the pipes and an anchoring portion adapted to be disposed in an adjacent groove. As the pipes are telescoped together the anchoring portion is trapped in the groove and anchors the sealing portion in place as it is compressed due to an interference fit with the pipes as the joint is made.
