Patent

CA 2294867

A fixing member (20) for holding a pipe (10) to another member (40) comprises a bifurcated first section (22). The bifurcated first section (22) has two fingers (22a) which can be positioned adjacent an abutment surface (12, 36) on the pipe. The fingers (22a) are arranged one each side of the pipe (10). The second section (24) extends from the bifurcated first section and co-operates with the fixing part (18, 36) to inhibit separation of the pipe (10) from the other member. In a preferred embodiment both first and second sections are bifurcated. In another embodiment, one section is bifurcated and the other section comprises elongate arms with transversely directed locking surfaces which co-operate with the fixing part to hold the pipe in place. The fingers of the first bifurcated section may be joined by a loop defining an aperture so that the fixing member can be retained captive on the pipe during coupling and decoupling from the other member.

L'invention concerne un organe de fixation (20) destiné à fixer un tuyau (10) à un autre organe (40). Cet organe (20) comporte une première partie fourchue (22) munie de deux branches (22a) qui peuvent être disposées adjacentes à une surface de butée (12, 36) sur le tuyau. Ces branches (22a) sont disposées de chaque côté du tuyau (10). La seconde partie (24) part de la première partie fourchue et agit avec l'organe de fixation (18, 36) dans le but d'empêcher que le tuyau (10) ne se sépare de l'autre organe. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, les première et seconde parties sont toutes deux fourchues. Selon un autre mode réalisation, l'une des parties est fourchue et l'autre est munie de bras allongés présentant des surfaces de blocage orientées dans le sens transversal, et qui agissent avec l'organe de fixation, dans le but de maintenir le tuyau en place. Les branches de la première partie fourchue peuvent être réunies par une boucle délimitant une ouverture et ce, de manière que l'organe de fixation bloque le tuyau au cours du couplage avec l'autre organe et de la séparation d'avec cet organe.
