QUICK LOCKING PIPE JOINT FOR PLAIN OR PROFILED PIPE

摘要

A pipe and pipe coupling assembly (10) including a first pipe (20) having a first end (72) and a second pipe (22) having a second end (74). The first end (72) includes a threaded portion (60) and a keyway (32), and is adapted to slidably engage the second end (74). The second end (74) includes a key portion (36) that is adapted to engage the keyway (32), thereby impeding the rotation of the first pipe (20) relative to the second pipe (22). The pipe and pipe coupling assembly (10) further includes a coupling member (34) adaptable to be rotatably attached to the second end (74). The coupling member (34) further includes a threaded portion (58) operable to engage the threaded portion (60) of the first end (72), thereby removably coupling the first pipe (20) to the second pipe (22) in a keyed, end to end relationship.
