Abstract
A pipe system includes a first pipe section and a second pipe section arranged, and together defining a total length, along a longitudinal axis. The first and second pipe sections are movable with respect to each other so as to shorten or lengthen the total length. A fixation member clamps a portion of the second pipe section to a portion of the first pipe section. The fixation member includes an insulator which is electrically insulating and passes no electrical current between the first and second pipe sections.
Claims8
A pipe system comprising:
- a first pipe section and a second pipe section arranged, and together defining a total length, along a longitudinal axis, said first and second pipe sections being movable and telescopic with respect to each other so as to shorten or lengthen the total length;
- and
- a fixation member that clamps a portion of said second pipe section to a portion of said first pipe section, said fixation member comprising an insulator which is electrically insulating and passes no electrical current between said first and second pipe sections;
- wherein said fixation member comprises one or more axial fixation members secured to lugs extending from said first and second pipe sections, wherein in a first telescoping position said one or more axial fixation members protrude a first amount axially beyond said lugs and in a second telescoping position said one or more axial fixation members protrude a second amount axially beyond said lugs, said first amount being less than said second amount, and wherein said insulator passes no electrical current between said first and second pipe sections in both said telescoping positions.
