Pipe connecting device

Claim 2

A pipe connecting device comprising: a plurality of arc-shaped configured stopping members including an extension so as to have a T-shaped configuration, respectively, a socket fixed to a first pipe, said socket including a plurality of holes for movably receiving said plurality of stopping members a joint fixed to a second pipe, said joint including a raised proportion with a plurality of grooves disposed on the outer surface thereof for slidably receiving the extension of the plurality of stopping members, and a circular leaf spring having an opening for resiliently surrounding said plurality of stopping members inserted into said grooves through said plurality of holes, whereby after the leaf spring surrounds along the plurality of the stopping member inserted into the holes of the socket fixed to the first pipe, when the socket is pushed toward the joint fixed to the second pipe, the plurality of stopping members are slidably moved out along the raised portion of the joint and thereafter, the extensions of the stopping members are inserted into the plurality of grooves of the joint, respectively, so that the first and the second pipes are effectively coupled together.

Claim 3

The pipe connecting device of claim 1, wherein the leaf spring is a wire spring.

Claim 4

The pipe connecting device of claim 2, wherein the plurality of stopping members further includes a stopping member channel disposed on the top thereof for tightly receiving the wire spring, respectively.

Claim 5

A pipe connecting device comprising: a circular band sleeve having an opening; a plurality of arc-shaped configured stopping members attached to the inner surface of one end portion of said band sleeve; a socket fixed to a first pipe, said socket including a plurality of holes for movably receiving the plurality of stopping members, a joint fixed to a second pipe, said joint including a raised portion with a plurality of grooves disposed on the outer surface thereof for slidably receiving the plurality of stopping members, and a rubber band for resiliently surrounding the other end portion of said band sleeve, whereby after the plurality of stopping members attached to the band sleeve are inserted into the holes of the socket fixed to the first pipe, when the socket is pushed toward the joint to the second pipe, the plurality of stopping members are slidably moved out along the raised portion of the joint and thereafter, the stopping members are inserted into the plurality of grooves of the joint, respectively, so that the first pipe and the second pipe are effectively coupled together.

Claim 6

A pipe connecting device comprising: a circular band sleeve having an opening; a plurality of arc-shaped configured stopping members attached to the inner surface of one end portion of said band sleeve; a socket fixed to a first pipe, said socket including a plurality of holes for movably receiving the plurality of stopping members, a joint fixed to a second pipe, said joint including a raised portion with a plurality of grooves disposed on the outer surface thereof for slidably receiving the plurality of stopping members, and a rubber band for resiliently surrounding the other end portion of said band sleeve, whereby after the plurality of stopping members attached to the band sleeve are inserted into the holes of the socket fixed to the first pipe, when the socket is pushed toward the joint to the second pipe, the plurality of stopping members are slidably moved out along the raised portion of the joint and thereafter, the stopping members are inserted into the plurality of grooves of the joint, respectively, so that the first pipe and the second pipe are effectively coupled together.

Claim 7

The pipe connecting device of claim 4, wherein the plurality of stopping members are attached to the band sleeve by bolts.

Claim 8

A pipe connecting device comprising: a circular coil spring, a plurality of arc-shaped configured stopping members including an extension forming a protrusion on the bottom thereof so as to leave a T-shaped configuration and a stopping member channel disposed on the top thereof for slidably receiving the coil spring, a socket fixed to a first pipe, said socket including a plurality of T-shaped holes for movably receiving the plurality of stopping members and a plurality of socket channels for slidable, alternatively receiving the coil spring with the stopping member channels, a recess formed on the outer surface of the end proportion of a second pipe for slidably receiving the protrusions of the stopping members, a dust cover for covering the T-shaped holes so as to prevent the coil spring from separating therefrom and dust from entering there into, whereby the coil spring is alternatively inserted into the stopping member channels of the plurality of stopping members and the socket channels of the socket and thereafter, the dust cover is positioned over the T-shaped holes, coil spring and stopping members so that the first pipe and the second pipe are effectively coupled together.

Claim 9

A pipe connecting device comprising: a circular coil spring, a plurality of arc-shaped configured stopping members including an extension forming a protrusion on the bottom thereof so as to leave a T-shaped configuration and a stopping member channel disposed on the top thereof for slidably receiving the coil spring, a socket fixed to a first pipe, said socket including a plurality of T-shaped holes for movably receiving the plurality of stopping members and a plurality of socket channels for slidable, alternatively receiving the coil spring with the stopping member channels, a recess formed on the outer surface of the end proportion of a second pipe for slidably receiving the protrusions of the stopping members, a dust cover for covering the T-shaped holes so as to prevent the coil spring from separating therefrom and dust from entering there into, whereby the coil spring is alternatively inserted into the stopping member channels of the plurality of stopping members and the socket channels of the socket and thereafter, the dust cover is positioned over the T-shaped holes, coil spring and stopping members so that the first pipe and the second pipe are effectively coupled together.

Claim 10

The pipe connecting device of claim 6, wherein the recess is formed by an annular raised ring disposed at the outer surface of the end portion of the second pipe.

Claim 11

The pipe connecting device of claim 6, wherein the dust cover is made of rubber.

Claim 12

The pipe connecting device of claim 6, wherein the dust cover is made of silicon material.
