FLEXIBLE HOSE WITH CONNECT FLANGE AND METHOD FOR OBTAINING SAME

摘要

The invention concerns a flexible hose with connect flange and a method for obtaining such a hose. The flexible hose (1) whereof the elastomer wall (1a) is reinforced by at least a main carcass (2) comprises flexible cables, including at least at one of its ends an annular flange (3), provided with longitudinal perforations, whereto is fixed at least the main carcass, said flange having an external diameter not greater than the external diameter of the hose wall proximate to the flange. The invention is characterised in that the flange comprises perforations (34a) emerging on one or more indentation(s) (12) provided on the outer surface (9) of the hose wall and whereof the dimensions enable to house therein at least linking means (15) externally accessible for abutting connection of pipes without interposition of an intermediate component between their respective flanges.
