  • Patent number: 12146594
    Abstract: A device for connecting a tube end section includes a tubular body defining a channel provided with a retainer including a hooking element for engaging an outer surface of the tube end section and an annular seal for gripping the outer surface of the tube end section. The device includes at least a first arm having an end arranged in the channel to be actuated by the tube end section downstream of the retainer to make a portion of the arm a connection control that which is detectable from outside the body.

  • Publication number: 20240360937
    Abstract: An aseptic junction device for a tube includes a tubular insert having a first end segment and a second end segment, an annular body mounted on the second end segment of the insert, and an annular sealing element. A maneuvering sleeve is rotatably mounted between a connection position and a disconnection position, and is coupled to the insert so that a rotation of the sleeve from the connection position to the disconnection position leads an axial movement of the body from a projecting position to a flush position. A coupling is arranged to allow decoupling of the junction device and another junction device, only when the sleeve is in the disconnection position.

  • Patent number: 10273814
    Abstract: A tool for installing a turbomachine component in a first dovetail slot of a first component mount is provided. The tool may include a tool mount having a body for selective fixing in a second dovetail slot of a second component mount adjacent to the first component mount. The tool may also include a lever arm including a first portion, an intermediate pivot for pivotally engaging the tool mount, and a second portion for engaging the turbine component. Actuating the lever arm against the tool mount causes the second portion of the lever arm to install the turbomachine component into the first dovetail slot of the first component.

  • Publication number: 20090226250
    Abstract: A coupling device for coupling a first duct to a second duct, the device including first and second tubular elements, each having a coupling segment for coupling respectively to the first duct and to the second duct, and the coupling segments being linked together by link segments that are assembled together to be free to turn relative to each other, the link segment of the first element comprising a tubular male portion that is elastically deformable in a radial direction and that is engaged by force in a female portion of the link segment of the second element that is rigid relative thereto, and the coupling device including a third element that defines a fluid passage and that is received in the male portion to oppose radial deformation thereof.
