MULTIPARTITE MECHANICAL PRESS FOR FLANGED CONNECTIONS WITH WEDGE-ACTUATED MOVEMENT MECHANISM.

摘要

The invention relates to a multipartite mechanical press, preferably a bipartite press, for flanged connections, which allows the handling of flanged connections in pipes for the addition/removal of elements to/from the line, such as filters, plates, flow regulators, measuring elements, orifice plates and valves. The multipartite design allows totally mechanical installation without the need for any type of modification to the pipeline, or by destructive procedures of removal or addition of material. The installation of the press requires the use of flanged connections in the pipe. Operation of the press is completely manual, i.e. operation does not require the use of mechanisms activated by any electrical, pneumatic, fuel-based, etc. means.
