Coupling assembly for pipes

A coupling assembly for coupling two components and configured to be flowed through by a fluid, the coupling assembly comprising:

• a coupling element;
• a ball joint assembly comprising a female ball joint element, a male ball joint element, and a securing element, wherein the female and male ball joint elements form a ball joint by form fit;
• wherein the male ball joint element comprises a ball segment and wherein the female ball joint element comprises an expandable ball segment, wherein the ball segment of the male ball joint element engages the expandable ball segment of the female ball joint element so that the female ball joint element at least partially encloses the male ball joint element;
• wherein the securing element contacts externally an outer contour of the female ball joint element;
• wherein the coupling element comprises a first end region and forms at the first end region one of the female and male ball joint elements;
• and
• wherein a first one of the two components forms the other one of the female and male ball joint elements;
• wherein the coupling element comprises a second end region arranged opposite the first end region and forming a coupling region configured to couple a second one of the two components;
• and
• wherein the coupling assembly further comprises a connection element and a locking element, wherein the coupling region is a female coupling element configured to receive the connection element, wherein the second end region comprises a receptacle, wherein the locking element engages the receptacle and locks the female coupling element at the connection element by friction fit and/or form fit.
