CONNECTING NODE Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC H01R13/523 

FIELD: electrical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to the connecting nodes for connection of electric power cable (1) to the submarine pipeline (8) and/or disconnecting from it, in particular, for direct electric heating. Connective node contains envelope conical member (6) connected to the connective plate (2) on the surface of pipeline (8), reverse enveloped conical member (5) fixed on the end of power cable (1) and screw tightening device (70) for contact between envelope conical member (6) and enveloped conical member (5). Tightening device (70) includes first rod element (7) mage with possibility of entering the first socket (16) of envelope conical element (6) having the hole directed against the direction of the cone (12) of envelope conical element (6) and serving for location of first rod element (7) with first rod element (7) having tightening screw (7a), inner end (7c) of which is manufactured with possibility of contact with enveloped conical element (5) and outer end (7b) is available for connection and disconnection operations.

EFFECT: quick and safe connection of the cable to the pipeline and/or its disconnection.
