Abstract
A mechanical pipe coupling is disclosed having an arcuate band with first and second ends in facing relation. A hinge is positioned between the first and second ends allowing the ends to move relatively to one another. Connection members are mounted on the ends, and a spacer is positioned between the ends to maintain the ends in spaced apart relation sufficient to allow end portions of a pipe to be inserted between arcuate surfaces which extend radially inwardly from the band. The spacer is configured to allow for tightening of the connection members to draw the ends together and permit the arcuate surfaces to engage the outer surfaces of the pipe elements and form a joint.
