Patent GB-2608686-A (GB)
Title: Mounting assembly comprising two end pieces held fitted by a belt
Inventor: MARTIAL BLANCHET
IPC: F16L23/08
Filed: 2022-05-13
Abstract: The mounting assembly comprises two end pieces 1,2 whose ends 1A, 2A are able to be fitted along an axis A and a mounting belt 12 which can be disposed around the second end piece 2 in a pre–mounted configuration before the fitting of the first end piece by an opening delimited by a first edge 13A' of the belt. The end pieces 1, 2 have respectively a first and a second centering surface 1C', 2C' able, in the fitted state, to axially overlap and to come into contact in order to limit the relative clearances of the end pieces. The belt carries a retaining lug 40 which extends outside the belt. In the pre–mounted state, the end pieces are retained in the fitted state by the combination of the contact of the centering surfaces and of the cooperation of the free end 40' of the retaining lug with a bearing surface 1A" of the first end piece located on the side of the first edge of the belt. The bearing of the retaining lug, combined with the cooperation of the centering surfaces therebetween, prevents a disengagement of the end pieces and therefore maintains the pre-mounted fitted state.
