Process for joining flexible hose to tubular connector

摘要

The stepped portion (22,24) of the tubular end piece (12) is inserted into the end of the flexible hose (10) and a dowel (14) already fed onto the hose and containing a stepped (40,42) bore is forced by the assembly tool over this part of the hose (10A) to wedge the hose onto the end piece of the connector (12). An outer sleeve is slid over the whole assembly and clamped in position by an end nut (18).
