Patent ID: 7520475

Claim:
A pipe insulation coupling for securing a pipe and adjacent ends of insulation tubing surrounding the pipe to a channel-section track having a pair of inwardly turned flanges defining a slot and an engagement surface, said pipe insulation coupling comprising: an integrally molded, one-piece elongated cylindrical body extending along a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end, said elongated cylindrical body including an outer tube wall extending between said first and second ends, and a planar interior wall fixedly secured to said outer tube wall midway between said first and second ends and extending inwardly from said outer tube wall transverse to said longitudinal axis, said planar interior wall including a center bore for receiving the pipe therethrough and defining opposing first and second channels extending from said planar interior wall to said first and second ends for receiving the adjacent ends of the insulation tubing therein; and a pair of flexible and resilient legs, each of said pair of flexible and resilient legs extends between a proximal end fixedly secured to said outer tube wall and a distal end including opposing notches formed therein, wherein both of said opposing notches are simultaneously engaged with the pair of inwardly turned flanges of the channel-section track to lock said pipe insulation coupling to the channel-section track.
