CONNECTION END-PIECE OF A FLEXIBLE PIPE WITH SPACING MEMBER, ASSOCIATED FLEXIBLE PIPE AND METHOD

摘要

The end-piece according to the invention comprises: - at least one end segment (34) of each sheathing element (29), - an end arch and a cap, the end arch and the cap delimiting a chamber between them for receiving an end segment (34); and - a filler material for filling the receiving chamber, in which the end segment (34) is embedded. The end-piece comprises a spacing member (58) positioned bearing inside the end segments (34) of the sheathing elements (29) of at least one sheathing layer (24, 25). Each spacing member (58) defining, on at least one end segment (34) of a sheathing element (29) of said sheathing layer (24, 25), contact zones (90, 92) spaced axially along said end segment (34), the contact zones (90, 92) delimiting intermediate spaces (94) between them for contact between the filler material and the end segment (34).
