A pipe joint for joining a tubular component (1) to a receiving piece (2), the pipe joint comprising a fitting body (3) having a recess (8), a tightening nut (6a) having a first thread (7a), the fitting body having a corresponding thread (4), and a cutting ring (9) being arranged to be pressed betwe
A pipe joint for joining a tubular component (1) to a receiving piece (2), the pipe joint comprising a fitting body (3) having a recess (8), a tightening nut (6a) having a first thread (7a), the fitting body having a corresponding thread (4), and a cutting ring (9) being arranged to be pressed between a wedge-like wall portion (10) of the recess, and the tubular component when the tightening nut is tightened. In order that the pipe joint could be tightened to form a leak-proof and strong joint using low torque, which enables the use of small tools applicable in confined spaces, the pipe joint comprises a supplementary nut (6b) having a thread (7c) whose handedness corresponds to that of the first thread (7a) but is smaller, the tightening nut comprising a second thread (7b) corresponding to that of the supplementary nut.

1. A pipe joint for joining a tubular component to a receiving piece, the pipe joint comprising a fitting body having a recess for receiving the tubular component, a tightening nut having a first thread and a second thread, the fitting body having a first thread corresponding to the first thread of the tightening nut, and a cutting ring between the tightening nut and the fitting body, the cutting ring being arranged to be pressed between a wedge-like wall portion of the recess, and the tubular component when the tightening nut is tightened, and a supplementary nut having a thread whose handedness and pitch corresponds to the second thread of the tightening nut and whose handedness corresponds to that of the first thread of the tightening nut, and wherein the pitch of the thread of the supplementary nut is smaller than the pitch of the first thread of the tightening nut, and the tightening nut is designed not to contact the cutting ring when tightening it.2. A pipe joint for joining a tubular component to a receiving piece, the pipe joint comprising a fitting body having a recess for receiving the tubular component, a tightening nut having a first thread and a second thread, the fitting body having a first thread corresponding to the first thread of the tightening nut, and a cutting ring between the tightening nut and the fitting body, the cutting ring being arranged to be pressed between a wedge-like wall portion of the recess, and the tubular component when the tightening nut is tightened, and a supplementary nut having a thread whose handedness and pitch corresponds to the second thread of the tightening nut and whose handedness corresponds to that of the first thread of the tightening nut, and wherein the pitch of the thread of the supplementary nut is 20 to 80% of the pitch of the first thread of the tightening nut.3. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the pitch of the thread of the supplementary nut is 20 to 80% of the pitch of the first thread of the tightening nut.4. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cutting ring is arranged to press against the supplementary nut and the fitting body as the tightening nut is tightened.5. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second thread of the tightening nut is provided on an inner circumference of the tightening nut, whereby the thread of the supplementary nut is an external thread.6. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein first thread of the tightening nut is an internal thread, whereby the first thread of the fitting body is an external thread.7. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 6, wherein the diameter of the thread of the supplementary nut is smaller than the diameter of the first thread of the tightening nut.8. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer circumference of the supplementary nut is smaller in size than the outer circumference of the tightening nut.9. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the fitting body comprises a nut-like outer circumference that is smaller in size than the outer circumference of the tightening nut.10. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the inner circumference of the supplementary nut is equal to the diameter of the recess in the fitting body.11. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 10, wherein the supplementary nut comprises at one end a conical portion whose inner diameter increases towards said end.12. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 1, wherein the fitting body comprises at an end opposing the recess a thread to be connected to the receiving piece.13. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein the cutting ring is arranged to press against the supplementary nut and the fitting body as the tightening nut is tightened.14. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein the second thread of the tightening nut is provided on an inner circumference of the tightening nut, whereby the thread of the supplementary nut is an external thread.15. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein first thread of the tightening nut is an internal thread, whereby the first thread of the fitting body is an external thread.16. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein the outer circumference of the supplementary nut is smaller in size than the outer circumference of the tightening nut.17. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein the fitting body comprises a nit-like outer circumference that is smaller in size than the outer circumference of the tightening nut.18. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein the inner circumference of the supplementary nut is equal to diameter of the recess in the fitting body.19. A pipe joint as claimed in claim 2, wherein the fitting body comprises at an end opposing the recess a thread to be connected to the receiving piece.
