Abstract

The present invention discloses a pipe connector which comprises one main body, one first gripper and one second gripper; wherein the first gripper is installed on one end of the main body and the second gripper installed on the other end of the main body; and first gripper and second gripper face different directions. The present invention complements each other to increase the number of pipe combination and does not require pipe connectors specially manufactured to correspond to other quantities.

Claims

1. A pipe connector for connecting two pipes, comprising:

one main body;

one first gripper, installed on one end of the said main body;

one second gripper, installed on the other end of the said main body and facing different direction from first gripper.

2. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 1, wherein the include angle of axis of said first gripper and said second gripper is 90 degree.

3. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 1, wherein the said first gripper is in arc shape and one lug extends from its end;

the said lug is with one opening.

4. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 1, wherein the said second gripper is in arc shape and one lug extends from its end;

the said lug is with one opening.

5. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 1, wherein the said first gripper is polygonal and one lug extends from its end;

the said lug is with one opening.

6. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 1, wherein the said second gripper is polygonal and one lug extends from its end;

the said lug is with one opening.

7. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 1, wherein the said main body is in L-shape.

8. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 7, wherein the said first gripper and said second gripper are installed on two ends of the said L-shape body.

9. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 7, wherein the said first gripper is formed curling upward from one end of the said L-shape body.

10. The pipe connector as claimed in claim 7, wherein the said second gripper is formed curling upward from one end of the said L-shape body.
