Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent stress concentration while ensuring the flexibility of the whole flexible tube for an exhaust pipe. SOLUTION: The flexible tube 10 has an inner tube 15 and an outer tube 16, cylindrical parts 11 for inserting the exhaust pipe 1 are formed in both end parts, and a section between both cylindrical parts is a bellows part 12 formed like bellows. A cover 3 surrounding them and made of a wire netting is connected with the exhaust pipe to form an exhaust pipe joint. The whole length of the flexible tube is divided into a central part A and end side parts B on both sides, and a reinforcing tube 17 is nipped between the inner tube and the outer tube in the end side parts B. Consequently, the end side part has a three layer structure, the rigidity is increased, stress is flattened, and fatigue strength is improved. Since the central part has two layers, high flexibility is kept, and the thermal insulation effect is obtained by an air layer.
