Abstract
This disclosure relates to a device in the form of a connecting pipe for use in heat pump devices for decoupling as well as for vibration control. The device includes a pipe section as well as a connecting element arranged at each end. The device further includes two non-metallic, spaced, staggered bellows assemblies for vibration compensation, the pipe section having a constant material thickness between the connecting elements, apart from any individual stabilizing rings. In addition, the bellows arrangements includes of one or more annularly closed foldings, each extending 360°.
