  • Patent number: 6773038
    Abstract: A hydraulic duct for feeding fluid at high pressure comprising a metal tube, a flexible tube of elastic material and a connector is provided with at least one main projection and a plurality of auxiliary projections, and the main projection is bounded on the side of the flexible tube by a conical surface. The flexible tube is fitted on the connector and is enclosed by an aluminium bell of a profile which can be coupled with the projections of the connector and is adapted to prevent the flexible tube from slipping off and to ensure fluid-tightness. The bell has an end rim which abuts against the conical portion of the main projection which faces towards the flexible tube.
