Abstract: This assembly between a spigot and a socket comprises a sealing gasket provided with a locking insert which comprises a head and a foot. The head comprises a radial projection, designed to press against a bottom surface of an anchoring groove belonging to the socket and a first inclined projection, designed to press against an inclined surface of the anchoring groove. The head also comprises a frontal projection which is offset from the first inclined projection and designed to press against an annular frontal surface of the anchoring groove. Application to the connecting of cast iron pipes.

Abstract: A composite gland sealing for the interlocking coupling of a housing end piece (8) including an anchoring groove (82), a plastic ring (14) and several locking inserts (20). Each locking insert (20) includes a radially external head (30) provided with a first front projection (50, 52) applicable against the annular front surface (90) of the anchoring groove (82). The head (30) comprises includes a second frontal projection (52, 50) radially shifted from the first front projection (50, 52).

Abstract: This locking ring is adapted to lock a joint between two tubular elements (4, 8). It extends around a central axis (X-X) and comprises segments (50) each having a main part (58) and two circumferential ends (60). Each segment (50) has a shape flaring out from a thin axial side towards a wide axial side. One of the segments (50) comprises a recess (62) for receiving a retaining member (16), which is axially open on the thin side. The receiving recess (62) extends solely through the main part, and it is circumferentially limited on both sides.

Abstract: A locked pipe joint between a socket (3) of a first pipe (4), and a smooth end (1) of a second pipe (2) inserted in the socket with the interposition of an annular sealing gasket (5). The joint includes a raised bead (6) integral with the smooth end, a split metal retaining ring (7), and a rear support surface (9) for the split ring. The split ring includes a series of indentations (19) on the circumference of at least one face (16), in which the indentations are configured to allow the necessary diametric contraction of the ring by the crossing of its ends, and the subsequent expansion of the ring to lock the joint.

Abstract: A locking insert 4 for joining the male and female ends of spheroidal-graphite cast-iron pipes conveying fluids under pressure has a generally planar shape, and includes at least two metal parts 4A, 4B fixed to each other by an electrically insulating junction layer 4C.

Abstract: The plug-in socket joint secured against sliding movement is intended for socket pipes (1) manufactured by centrifugal casting, in which the spigot end (3) of one pipe may be inserted with radial play into the socket end (2) of the other pipe. In this joint, a sealing ring (8) and a clamping ring (14) structurally separate therefrom are arranged, said clamping ring being composed of a plurality of clamping segments (15) spaced from one another in peripheral direction. The latter have a spherical outer shell surface (17), are connected to each other in peripheral direction by means of a moulded-on intermediate layer of rubber or similar and each have a toothing (19) on their inner surface (18).

Abstract: A socket joint for pressurized fluid carrying pipes incorporates a radially-compressed gasket 4 locked in position by toothed inserts 12 each having an inclined face 27 which slides on and bears against a similarly inclined face 26 of a support insert 11 embedded in the anchoring heel 14 of the gasket which is seated in the anchoring throat 7 of the socket.

Abstract: A socket joint for ductile cast iron pipes is locked by toothed locking ring inserts 15 and a counter-flange 11. At least one elastic lip 19 is inserted between the locking ring and the rear face of a rigid stop ring which encloses the smooth or male end of the pipe 1.

Abstract: Composite gasket for locked assembly between a first pipe T1 with a socket 15 and a second pipe T2 with a spigot 20.The gasket G comprises locking inserts 7 with a nose 11 for catching on the spigot 20. The inserts 7 are capable of an angular movement varying their inclination relative to the axis X--X of the gasket G.The invention is used for the locking of pipes having wide diametral production tolerances.

Abstract: To lock a pipework joint in place, a locking device 5 rests on a flange 4 mounted on the socket end of one of the pipes. The flange has, over at least one portion of its periphery, a radial L-shaped cross-section, the concavity of the L being oriented radially inwardly and mating with a complementary contour on the end of the socket.

Abstract: An annular gasket 1 for sealing joints between male and female socket pipes has an anchoring structure 2 and a sealing body 3, the anchoring structure having an anchoring heel 5 provided with outer peripheral recesses 27.
