<p>A pipe (12) for feeding a gas into an oven, a furnaces, or the like (such as a CVI/CVD oven), and in particular into a reaction chamber structure (16) inside the oven, is provided with a gastight tubular sealing device (32) extending radially outside the pipe and defining a path that is practically gastight, along which there extends the as feed pipe. The tubular sealing device is preferably at least partially flexible in the transverse direction and/or the axial direction so as to accommodate positioning defects between a location situated in the reaction chamber and a location where the gas feed pipe penetrates into the oven (which defects may be due, for example, to asymmetrical thermal expansion/contraction).</p> |
