Elastic connector for rigid conduit sections - has thin elastic sheet in ferrule allowing conduit expansion and deformation

摘要

The connector is particularly suitable for the joint between fuel injection carburettors and supply pipes having a ferrule (13) arranged on one of the conduits penetrating the interior of a joint housing (15) on the other conduit. A seal (16) such as an annular joint is interposed between the ferrule and the housing to allow their relative deflection. The ferrule is pushed back elastically into the interior of the housing by the reaction force of a thin profiled elastic sheet (14) bearing onto the lateral wall of an annular holding groove (22).
