    Abstract: The invention relates to a shell coupling (40) for coupling pairs of pipes, having two half-shells (46, 48′) which, in the coupling state, bound a circular opening (60) for through-passage of the pipes and, at their one end, can be pivoted in relation to one another, via an outer articulation (44), about an articulation axis-parallel to the circular opening (60) and, at their other end, can be connected to one another in a releasable manner via a clamping mechanism (51), with the pipes which are to be coupled being clamped in the process. In order to reinforce the pipe connection to the concrete placing boom, and to improve the force transmission which is necessary in this region, it is proposed, according to the invention, that the shell coupling (40), which is designed as an add-on coupling, has a mounting plate (52) which has a retaining structure (54) by means of which at least one force-transmission element (50) formed on one of the half-shells (48′) is accommodated in a form-fitting and force-fitting manner. The at least one force-transmission element (50) here expediently has a cross-sectionally wedge-shaped contour, the retaining structure (54) forming at least one wedge mount (56), wherein the mounting plate (52) and the one half-shell (48′) can be connected to one another by means of at least one clamping screw (66), with the force fit being made in the process in the wedging direction of the force-transmission element (50) and of the retaining structure (54).

    Abstract: A conveying pipe for transporting solids includes a pipe body and a pipe collar connected to at least one end of the pipe body. The pipe collar and the pipe end are coupled to each other by an interference fit at least in some sections in a coupling region in a longitudinal direction of the pipe body. In the coupling region, an anaerobically hardening adhesive is optionally arranged in craters or depressions. The conveying pipe is produced by roughening the pipe collar inner surface and/or the pipe end outer surface in a coupling region, cleaning the pipe collar inner surface and/or the pipe end outer surface, applying an anaerobic hardenable adhesive the pipe collar inner surface and/or the pipe end inner surface, and pressing the pipe collar onto the pipe end and/or pressing the pipe end into the pipe collar.

    Abstract: The apparatus of the present disclosure is an improvement on known wheelchairs and other known devices for transporting elderly, infirm, injured, handicapped, disabled, or otherwise mobility-impaired individuals. The present disclosure provides a seat that is adjustable in both height and tilt angle for easy loading and unloading. In some embodiments, the height adjustment is provided via a hydraulic lift cart. Further provided are adjustable horizontal leg supports. A non-confining cage of substantially vertical support bars surrounds the occupant, and straps may be attached around the support bars. This provides support without causing the occupant to feel strapped down and confined to the device. Removing the straps allows easy loading and unloading from whichever side of the apparatus is most convenient.
