20090194992 | PIPE COMPENSATION SYSTEM - A compensation system for use with a divided pipe having a pair of open ends and being supported at first and second spaced apart points which are moveable relative to one another. A loop member attaches to the open ends of the pipe and is supported by a support system. The loop member includes a bend causing the loop member to extend away from the pipe, the loop member being flexible enough to accommodate a movement between the open ends of the pipe. The support system includes a flexible support having a first end secured to move with the first point and a second end secured move with the second point. Also, a support connection is provided at the loop member for engagement by the flexible support between the two ends to permit movement of the loop member relative to the pipe, the support connection permitting movement of the flexible support relative to the tubing. | 08-06-2009 |
20090261576 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING A PIPE COUPLING - A pipe coupling support having a substantially rigid body with an inner surface formed to mate with at least a portion of the exterior surface of a pipe coupling installed on pipe. In many cases, the exterior surface of the installed pipe coupling will be non-cylindrical. For example, when pipes of differing diameters or pipes manufactured from different materials must be joined with commonly available pliable couplings. In this instance the inner surface of the body of the pipe coupling support may be formed to mate with a majority of or substantially the entire exterior surface of the installed pipe coupling. | 10-22-2009 |

20080303268 | Fluid transport system - A fluid delivery system for a fluid distribution system such as a manure distribution inlet. The invention provides an improved coupling between a supply hose and the newer distribution implement includes an angled pipe coupled to a first collar and a second collar. The collars define keyways within which rotate an annular key provided around an inlet pipe and an annular key provided around an outlet pipe. The inlet pipe, outlet pipe and angled pipe are preferably constructed of polished steel to reduce the wear associated with constant rotation of the pipes relative to one another. The combination of the keyways and polished steel construction allows the pipe to be rotated constantly with only a minimum amount of wear, and improved maintenance and failure characteristics. | 12-11-2008 |
