<p>A connector assembly (10) for connecting the ends of two pieces (12, 14) of conduit or other substantially cylindrical objects including a spirally-wound sleeve (18) and an elastic tube (16). The sleeve (18) is positioned to cover both conduit ends and is spirally wound to adjust to the diameter of the conduit by winding the sleeve in a tighter or looser spiral and the tube (16) is allowed to contract over the sleeve and is preferably dimensioned to extend beyond in the ends of the sleeve to contact the conduit ends when contracted.</p> |
