Connecting Coupler for Steel Reinforcement
The invention relates to a coupler for reinforcing steel rod connection in construction of a concrete structure. The disclosed coupler includes a housing having a substantially cylindrical interior with a radial lip fixed to an interior sidewall of the housing to separate a first hollow and a second hollow within the interior, a first frustoconical gripping unit with a frame and a plurality of plates positioned against the frame to form sidewalls and define a first cavity, a spring positioned within the housing and biasingly abutting the first frustoconical gripping unit, a center separator positioned within a central coil of the spring and abutting the radial lip on the interior sidewall of the housing, and a second frustoconical gripping unit having a frame and a plurality of plates positioned against the frame to form sidewalls and define a second cavity. The arrangement of components forms two opposing passages into which the reinforcing steel rods are inserted for a stable connection.
