Abstract

A pipe hanger between whose legs a joint member is inserted and held by the force of a bolt. Both a rigid connection of the joint member with the pipe hanger and a slipping connection of the joint member with the pipe hanger is achieved enabled by spiral ridges of teeth which in the case of the rigid connection engage and in the case of the slipping connection glide upon each other.
