Abstract
A coupling system provides a media-conducting connection of two hose-shaped sections (10, 12). Each section has one coupling element (16, 18), with two coupling parts (20, 22) that can be separated from each other and that are detachably held to each other by closure elements (24) along a disconnecting point (26). The closure parts of one coupling element can be engaged with correspondingly designed closure elements (24) of the other coupling element (20, 22) to form the transport section. All closure elements (24) of the coupling parts (20, 22) point hose-inward, at least before forming the transport section. Upon producing the transport section, the respective disconnecting point (26) is arranged between the coupling elements (16, 18), transversely to the transport section.
Claims13
A coupling system for conveying media in a combined transport section, the coupling system comprising:
- first and second tubular section parts with wall parts;
- and
- first and second coupling elements on the first and second tubular section parts, respectively, each of the first and second coupling elements having first and second coupling parts separable from one another and detachably held together by fastening elements thereof along a separation joint, the first coupling element being detachably engageable with the second coupling element by the respective fastening elements producing a formed transport section between the first and second tubular section parts, all of the fastening elements of the first and second coupling parts extending from the wall parts toward insides of the first and second tubular section parts before coupling of the fastening elements producing the formed transport section, the respective separation joint between each of the first and second coupling elements being transversely arranged relative to the formed transport section, each of the wall parts having fastening parts only on one side thereof.
