Title:
CONNECTION METHOD AND AXIAL ALIGNMENT MECHANISM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/166400
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
To make it possible to remove pipe members connected together by moving the pipe members in a radial direction, for example, without moving the pipe members in an axial direction, a pipe joint (3) comprises: a series of unit members (31a-31c) of which adjacent unit members are rotatably connected to each other; and a fastener (32) for connecting the unit members (31a, 31c) at opposite ends. Flange parts (12) of a pair of pipe members (1) are engaged with both axial sides of the unit members (31a-31c), so that the pair of pipe members (1) are centered in a centered posture or an equivalent posture. The unit members (31a, 31c) at opposite ends are connected by the fastener (32) to form an annular state, and the fastener (32) is fastened whereby the pair of pipe members (1) are connected together in the centered posture.
