  • Patent number: 6971679
    Abstract: Device for connecting one end of a pipe to a bore provided in a fluid transport circuit element, includes a tubular body defining an inner channel for receiving the pipe end, elements for retaining the pipe end in a predetermined axial position in the inner channel and elements for fixing the tubular body in the hole in a predetermined axial position, members for stopping the pipe end mounted on the tubular body designed to be mobile between a projecting position to counter the drive-up of the pipe end to its axial position and a retracted position to clear the passage for the pipe end towards its predetermined axial position, the stop members being designed to co-operate with the element such that they shift from their projecting position to their retracted position when the tubular body is driven in the hole up to its predetermined axial position.
