20080296888 | Connecting Device with Welded Body - The invention relates to a coupling device comprising a tubular body ( | 12-04-2008 |
20090167020 | DOUBLE-LOCKING CONNECTOR - A connector for connecting a circuit element to a tubular endpiece has an external collar, the connector having a tubular body with means for connecting the tubular body to the circuit element and a housing to receive the endpiece. The housing has a sealing member and is defined by a wall pierced by a lateral opening, and receives a jumper that is movable transversely of the body between a projecting position for retaining the collar of the endpiece and a retracted position for releasing the collar. The body has a member for locking the jumper in the retaining position, the locking member being mounted on the body such that it is movable between a position which engages the jumper and a position which disengages the jumper. | 07-02-2009 |
20090302600 | METAL COUPLING WITH LOCKED POSITION - A coupling comprising a body and a sleeve mounted coaxially on the body, the body defining a housing opening out in a face of the body to enable an end portion of the duct to be inserted therein, wherein the sleeve has an end projecting from said face of the body and provided with a catch step for catching the duct, wherein the sleeve is deformable radially and elastically from an endpiece-retaining state towards an endpiece-passing state, wherein the sleeve is mounted on the body to slide between first and second positions that are in successive relative to an insertion direction for inserting the duct into the housing, and wherein the body and the sleeve include complementary portions in relief that co-operate together when the sleeve is in its first position to hold the sleeve in its retaining state, and that are disengaged from each another when the sleeve is in its second position. | 12-10-2009 |
20100045028 | METHOD OF CONNECTING A MEMBER TO AN END OF A MULTILAYER TUBE - Method of connecting an end portion of a multilayer tube to a channel of an element, at least the end portion of the tube including a surface layer that is weldable to at least one substantially annular wall of the element, and the assembly connected by the method. The method including the step of causing an area of the surface layer of the end portion of the tube to rub against the wall of the element so as to friction-weld the end portion of the tube to the element, the method including the prior step of turning back the end portion onto itself in such a manner that the area of the surface layer of the end portion extends facing the wall of the element. | 02-25-2010 |
20100127492 | COUPLING WITH AN INDICATOR - A quick connector including a female part, a male part, and a latch. The latch includes a latching ring which slides within a housing of the female part, and a backing ring which is fitted on the latching ring and is slidable relative thereto. As the male part is inserted into the female part, the latching ring locks the parts and a folded tab of the backing ring is raised to provide a visual indication that male part is locked in the female part. | 05-27-2010 |
20110143069 | Method of Fabricating A Device Such As A Coupling By Laser Welding, The Device Fabricated By Such Method, And An Element Of Such Device For Implementing The Method - A method of fabricating a device such as a coupling, the device fabricated by such method, and an element of such device for implementing the method. The method includes two bodies assembled together by laser welding, one of the bodies including a lens for refracting the laser radiation onto the other body. | 06-16-2011 |
20110148107 | BAYONET CONNECTION FOR COUPLING BODIES - Fluid coupling formed as an assembly of a first body section having an end portion with studs and a second body section having an end portion configured to receive the end portion of the first body section and having grooves for receiving a corresponding one of the studs. Each of the grooves has an axial inlet section, and a blind section extending circumferentially from the inlet section to an end wall movable between a projecting position retaining the stud in the blind section and a retracted position allowing the stud to pass from the inlet to the blind section. Rotation of one of the body sections passes the studs in the retracted position of the groove end wall from the inlet section into the blind section, the studs being retained in the blind section in the projected position of the groove end wall to couple the body sections. | 06-23-2011 |
