Definitions
- the invention relates to a coupling between a first body with a hole, for instance a cylindrical hole with an axis, and a cylindrical end zone of a second body to be inserted therein in an axial insertion direction, in which hole and/or on the surface of which end zone extends an elastically deformable ring which is fixedly connected to the relevant body, the free end edge of which ring lies substantially on the peripheral plane of an imaginary, substantially rotation-symmetrical body, respectively the diameter of which is smaller than the outer diameter of the end zone of the second body or the diameter of which is greater than the diameter of the hole, which ring is elastically deformable such that, when said end zone is inserted, it bends in the insertion direction and scrapes over the surface thereof with its free edge such that after insertion of the end zone over some distance the movement in backward direction relative to the insertion direction is blocked.
- a coupling of the type specified in the preamble which has the feature that the ring is received at least partially in the wall of the hole of the first body or in the surface of the second body, and that the ring has an interruption with two ends directed toward each other, lies substantially in a flat main plane in the undeformed state and defines an axis, which ends are displaced away from each other in the direction of the axis such that the ring has a helical form and is fixed in this helical form, such that the free end edge of the ring has an inclining position corresponding to a part of the helix, as a consequence of which, when the second body is rotated around the axis relative to the first body, the form of said helix is followed so that an axial relative movement also occurs and said end zone of the second body can be removed from the hole of the first body.
- the ring consists of a material and is modelled such that when the coupling between the two bodies is effected an elastic deformation occurs in the ring, wherein the free end edge of the ring moves in scraping manner along the relevant surface of the second body. The backward movement is blocked.
- the coupling can nevertheless be released, namely by exerting a rotation force between the two bodies, whereby the bodies are separated from each other in the manner of a screw by the plastically deforming or cutting action of the free end edge of the ring.
- Use could be made of thin sheet- like spring steel.
- a suitable plastic can also be envisaged.
- the coupling has the special feature that the ring comprises a number of tongues in spaced-apart arrangement.
- This latter embodiment can advantageously have the special feature that the tongues are arranged more or less angularly equidistant. In this latter embodiment all exerted forces are distributed substantially homogeneously over the whole periphery.
- the tongues can extend on the inner side of the hole but, alternatively, can also be situated on the surface of said end zone. It is recommended for safety reasons when the coupling is effected that the tongues are situated inside the hole, since there is otherwise the danger of the person effecting the coupling being injured by the possibly sharp tongues.
- the tongues can consist of any suitable material. A sufficiently strong plastic such as for instance ABS is therefore suitable. Cheaper and very reliable is an embodiment where the tongues consist of metal, in particular steel.
- the coupling according to the invention has the special feature that the tongues form part of a monolithic unit, also comprising a substantially flat ring which is at least partially received in the wall of the hole of the first body.
- This embodiment is relatively easy to manufacture by punching and pressing, whereby production costs will be relatively low.
- This latter embodiment can advantageously have the special feature that the ring has a number of protrusions which during mutual rotation of the two bodies in the stated manner brace themselves against the material of the body to which the ring is fixedly connected.
- the end zone of the second body is displaced outward by rotation, a distribution of forces thus takes place over the whole periphery of the ring, which in turn distributes these forces over the protrusions.
- these protrusions are preferably distributed regularly, for instance angularly equidistant, over the periphery of the ring. They can lie in the same plane as the ring or also be embodied as additional tongues pressed out of the plane of the ring.
- the coupling according to the invention has the special feature that each tongue has a main direction in axial projection which differs from the radial direction and is in a direction opposite the direction of rotation when the end zone of the second body is moved outward.
- a more or less radially directed additional force is hereby exerted on each tongue during rotation of the cylindrical end zone of the second body, whereby the ring has a slight tendency to expand, which somewhat facilitates the helical rotation.
- the coupling according to the invention has the special feature that the hole has an axial stop for bounding the distance over which said end zone of the second body can be inserted into the hole.
- the coupling can be effected in very simple manner by inserting the cylindrical end zone of the second body with some axial force into the cylindrical hole in the first body, wherein the axial insertion distance is determined by said axial stop.
- This axial stop can for instance be embodied as an annular shoulder, against which the leading edge of the end zone of the second body comes to lie.
- the coupling has the special feature that the first body is a tube or tube stub.
- the coupling can have the special feature that at least said end zone of the second body consists of plastic, concrete, wood or metal, such as iron, copper or aluminium. It is important that the material of the tongues is chosen such that it can co-act effectively in the above described manner with the material of the second body.
- An embodiment which is easy to assemble has the specific feature that the ring is accommodated clampingly while being elastically deformed in an annular recess in the relevant wall of the relevant body. In order to prevent unintended rotation of the ring in the situation where the bodies must be separated from each other by relative rotation, use can be made of means preventing such a rotation.
- the above specified coupling can have for this purpose the special feature that the ring has a number of protrusions which during mutual rotation of the two bodies in the stated manner brace themselves against the material of the body to which the ring is fixedly connected.
- the annular recess can have a local interruption in the form of a stop wall, with which an end of the ring at the position of the interruption can co-act during said rotation. Unintended rotation of the ring is effectively prevented with both variants .
- a coupling according to the invention can for instance be applied for the coupling of two tubes.
- a two-sided coupling sleeve can thus for instance be coupled at both its ends to respective tubes by means of two associated couplings according 'to the invention.
- Such a sleeve can optionally be an outer sleeve or an inner sleeve.
- an outer sleeve the connection between the tubes for coupling to each other can be realized such that these tubes come to rest with their free end edges against each other.
- suitable sealing means for instance sealing rings present on the inner surface of the outer sleeve.
- the invention is not only suitable for coupling tubes but in general for coupling a body provided with a hole to another body having at least a cylindrical end zone, for instance a solid rod.
- the coupling according to the invention can thus serve to place an outside letterbox on a for instance wooden post.
- Table legs can also be connected to a tabletop provided with holes using the coupling according to the invention.
- a hammerhead provided with a suitable hole can also be connected to a handle with the coupling according to the invention.

- Fig. 4C is a perspective view corresponding with Fig. 4A and 4B.
- Fig. IA, IB, 1C show a first embodiment.
- a tube 1 is coupled to a tube 2 by means of a coupling sleeve 3.
- Coupling sleeve 3 is pushed over the end of tube 1 and connected sealingly thereto, for instance by means of glueing.
- On the other side coupling sleeve 3 has a recess in which a sealing ring 10 is received which can co-act sealingly with a tube 2 inserted into coupling sleeve 3.
- a cutting ring 6 of spring steel with inward protruding tongues 17.
- Cutting ring 6 is screwed into a groove-like recess with a helical form present in the inner surface of the widened end zone 19 of a coupling sleeve 3.
- a recess 12 extends as far as the free end of the relevant inner surface such that the cutting ring, which is provided with an opening, can take on the helical form indicated in the figures or which has already obtained this beforehand.
- tube 2 Only by rotating tube 2 in the relevant direction relative to coupling sleeve 3 can tube 2 be removed from coupling sleeve 3 again by performing a screwing movement.
- cutting ring 6 then performs an actual cutting operation in the outer surface of tube 2. The forces which occur can be quite great. There is therefore the risk of the cutting ring co-rotating with tube 2 and thus leaving the recess 12.
- the cutting ring can for instance be glued into recess 12 or be provided with protrusions preventing this rotation.
- the inner surface of coupling sleeve 3 has an annular stop shoulder 3 which defines the distance over which the first tube 1 can be inserted into coupling sleeve 3.
- Fig. 2A, 2B and 2C show a second embodiment. This is distinct from the first embodiment according to Fig. 1 in two aspects .
- cutting ring 7 is embodied as a smooth ring, i.e. a ring not provided with tongues 17. So as to nevertheless obtain the desired operation, i.e. the possibility of inserting tube 2 axially and being able to remove it again only with the screwing movement, it is essential for ring 7 to possess a certain degree of elastic deformability, whereby the inner diameter can be slightly increased temporarily during insertion of tube 2 and the backward movement is blocked. The cutting action can be further obtained only when the cutting inner edge is indeed effectively able to plastically deform tube 2 in cutting manner. Thin, sheet-like spring steel could be a good choice for ring 7. It will be apparent that this depends partly on the material of tube 2.
- cutting ring 7 is held in its helical form in a manner other than according to Fig. 1.
- Cutting ring 7 is placed and then pressed thereagainst by means of a closing ring 15 of complementary form with a correspondingly formed helical surface 20.
- the closing ring can for instance be connected to coupling sleeve 3 in tightly clamping manner of by means of a glued connection while enclosing cutting ring 7.
- FIG. 3A, 3B and 3C show a third embodiment. This is distinct from the other embodiments in the sense that cutting ring 8 is provided with tongues 18 extending in outward direction.
- the open cutting ring is accommodated in a helical recess 13 on the outer side of a coupling sleeve 5.
- Tube 1 is inserted into coupling sleeve 5 and connected sealingly thereto, for instance by means of a glued connection.
- Tube 2 can be pushed sealingly via seal 10 over coupling sleeve 5 and then come into scraping contact with tongues 18 of cutting ring 8. These hereby deform, just as in the case of the other exemplary embodiments, in forward direction, whereby backward displacement of tube 2 is blocked. This can take place only through a relevant rotating displacement of tube 2.
- ring 8 can be provided with provisions preventing rotation, such as a glued connection, hooking protrusions or the like.
- coupling sleeve 5 has no annular stop shoulder 28. This could be desirable, and can then be situated for instance in the transition between the widened end zone and the narrower part 29 of coupling sleeve 5.
- Fig. 4 shows a fourth exemplary embodiment.
- a tube 1 comprises an internal recess 14 in which a cutting ring 9 with inward directed tongues 17 can be received clampingly under spring force. In rest position the cutting ring 9 has a relatively large diameter.
- the free end zones are provided with through- holes 24, 25 which, in the manner of a resilient locking ring, can be compressed by means of a suitable tool, for instance pointed pliers.
- a suitable tool for instance pointed pliers.
- the ring 9 is placed in position in the vicinity of recess 14, whereafter the compressing force is ended and ring 9 is brought and held clampingly in position in recess 14.
- the end surface 26 of recess 14 serves as stop for the end surface 27 of ring 9 co- acting therewith, whereby the ring is blocked against rotation in the case the second tube 2 is screwed outward.
- Tube 1 has the same diameter as the second tube 2.
- the first tube 1 is provided with a widened end zone 30 in which the recess 14 is situated.
- a more or less conical transition zone 31 is situated between the first tube 1 and the widened end zone 30.
- a seal is realized which is sufficient for many applications.
- a further sealing ring can be accommodated in an annular recess between the transition zone and recess 14, in a manner analogous to recess 11 in coupling sleeve 3.
