摘要：

A coupler apparatus for use with precast concrete segmental construction having a first duct, a first coupler member extending over and around the first duct, a second duct, a second coupler member extending over and around the second duct and a gasket received at the ends of the first and second coupler members so as to prevent liquid from passing between the coupler members into an interior of either of the ducts. The ducts extend at a non-transverse acute angle with respect to the ends of the coupler members. Heat shrink seals are affixed to the opposite ends of the coupler member so as to secure the coupler members to the ducts in liquid-tight relationship. The ends of the coupler member have generally V-shaped grooves facing each other. The gasket is received in compressive relationship within the V-shaped grooves.
