20110227331	Connection System for Tubular Members - A tubular connector system is disclosed for joining two pipe ends. The pipe ends are joined without the necessity of rotating the pipe ends. A special coupling has opposing tapered ends. Each of the tapered ends slopes inwardly from an inner extent to an outer extent thereof to thereby form a respective mouth opening of the body. Each tapered end of the coupling has a specially contoured surface which is made up of a series of alternating helical spline wedges. The wedges are oppositely tapered from an inner extent to an outer extent thereof, whereby the helical spline wedges form an alternating series of lands and grooves on the body as viewed from the respective mouth openings. The two opposing pipe ends have mating engagement surfaces which engage and mate with the contoured surfaces of the coupling as one pipe end is pushed toward the other during assembly.	09-22-2011
20110101684	Threaded Pipe Connection with a Pressure Energized Flex Seal - A threaded pipe connection is shown which features a pressure energized flex-seal structure. The connection includes a first box member having a box end, the box end having an end opening defining an interior surface with internal threads, the internal threads being defined by crests and roots and opposing flanks. A second, mating pin member has a pin end with a pin nose, the pin end having an exterior surface with mating external threads, the external threads also having crests and roots and opposing flanks, at least selected ones of which move into engagement with the internal threads of the box when the connection is made up. A flex-seal region is located on the box end interior surface which is designed to engage a cooperating energizing surface on the mating pin end to thereby form a primary containment seal upon make up of the connection.	05-05-2011
