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: Device for controlling a musical instrument, in particular a carillon, comprising a first set of keys, each key being equipped with a sensor and force regulating means, said device has a second set of striking elements, each key of the first set has assigned to it a striking element of the second set, the keys and the striking elements are mechanically dissociated from one another, said force regulating means being arranged to impose on the key with which they are associated a static force substantially identical to that which would have been imposed by the striking element if it had been connected to the key, and wherein each sensor is arranged to measure a rate of displacement of the key with which it is associated, each sensor being connected to a first signal generator arranged to receive said rate of displacement and convert it into a first signal comprising said rate and an identification of the key associated with the sensor, said first generator being connected to a transmitter arranged to transmit th
