Abstract
A kit for joining cylindrical tubes to form strong orthogonally joints for use in a variety of structures comprises a tool for modifying the cylindrical tubes to demonstrate cutouts of specified width and depth, a Steinmetz solid connector having a shape defined by the volume of intersection of the two cylindrical volumes of equal diameter joined orthogonally; and an adhesive means for securing said connector within said cylindrical tubes. Kits that comprise one-, two-, and four-piece Steinmetz solid connectors are described, as are alternative means and members to secure and shape the resulting joint.
IPC Classes ?
- F16B 7/00 - Connections of rods or tubes, e.g. of non-circular section, mutually, including resilient connections
- F16L 41/12 - Joining pipes to walls or pipes, the joined pipe axis being perpendicular to the plane of a wall or to the axis of another pipe using attaching means embracing the pipe
- F16L 37/26 - Couplings of the quick-acting type in which the connection is made by transversely moving the parts together, with or without their subsequent rotation
- B23P 15/00 - Making specific metal objects by operations not covered by a single other subclass or a group in this subclass
- F16L 41/08 - Joining pipes to walls or pipes, the joined pipe axis being perpendicular to the plane of a wall or to the axis of another pipe

Abstract
A joint comprising two intersecting cylindrical tubes joined orthogonally and reinforced internally by a Steinmetz solid connector having a shape defined by the volume of intersection of the hollow regions of said tubes. The joints can be made releasable or permanently fixed. Methods and kits for building strong orthogonal joints using Steinmetz solid connectors are also described.
