Abstract:
1. An assembly comprising at least two non-metal components which are fixed to each other using at least one fixing system comprising: a fixing device comprising: a fixing element which is provided with a head and a rod, and a crimping ring which is mounted on the rod and which is arranged in contact with one of the non-metal components; and a protection device which delimits a cavity for confining gas around a portion of the fixing device comprising the crimping ring, wherein the system further comprises a guiding device for guiding the protection device, the guiding device comprising an assembly element, on the portion of the fixing device, and an element for guiding the protection device, the guiding element, surrounding the portion of the fixing device, wherein the guiding device further comprises an element for connecting the assembly element to the guiding element, wherein the assembly element has an assembly hole through which the portion of the fixing device extends, wherein the guiding element comprises a hole for passage of the portion of the fixing device, and wherein the connection element is deformable so as to allow movement from a non-loaded configuration, in which the guiding element is held relative to the assembly element with the passage hole and the assembly hole substantially in a coaxial state, to a deformed configuration in which the guiding element is held relative to the assembly element with an axis of the passage hole inclined relative to an axis of the assembly hole.
