Abstract: There is referred to a sealing arrangement (10, 10?) comprising two armature members (11, 12), which are adapted to receive a sealing ring (13, 13?) between them for sealing off a joint between the armature members (11, 12), and a clamping device (30), which during mounting is adapted to clamp the armature members (11, 12) against each other in a direction towards the intermediate sealing ring (13, 13?), where the sealing ring (13, 13?) has a substantially T-shaped annular cross-section, with a stem (14) extending radially outwards and with a sealing face (15a, 15b) facing radially outwards in each of two sealing wings (15, 16) projecting axially outwards in opposite directions from stem (14) of the T-shape, the sealing wings (15, 16) having mutually equivalent forms and equivalent conical sealing faces (15a, 16a) for forming abutments against their respective conical support faces (21, 25) of each of the armature members (11, 12).

Abstract: Two joint components in a pipe conduit are secured together in seal-tight fashion by means of rotatably mounted dogs in one of the joint components which are rotated via individual slides into an active locking position. The slides are, in turn, activated from a common pressure source. In addition, a wedge is positioned in the joint component under a housing in which a dog is rotatably mounted so as to be slid radially inward by a slide after the dog has been rotated into a locking position. In one embodiment, a double acting piston and cylinder arrangement is used for actuating the respective slides.
