ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a flange connection for two components, in particular for containers, pipes or the like, with each of the two components having a flange which can be fastened against one another by fastening means and enclose between them a sealing body gripping over the connecting joint between the two components. Each flange, in its end face facing toward the connecting joint, has an annular sealing chamber which widens conically toward the connecting joint and into which a sealing body of annular configuration is positioned. The flanges, when fastened, bear against one another at the end face and together form a sealing chamber which is approximately triangular in cross-section and is virtually completely filled by the sealing body deformed by the fastening.
