CA 2323600

A connecting means adapted to fix or release a first element (4) and a second element (5) includes a locking pin (1) which is moveable by remote activation means between a locked position, in which leg (8) expands wall (9) into recess (10), and an unlocked position. The remote activation means may be magnetic, electro-magnetic or any other suitable means. A method of fixing or releasing first and second elements by remote activation means is also disclosed. The invention further provides a first element having first means (166) adapted to cooperate with second means (165) on a second element to facilitate connection of the first and second elements. A method of manufacturing the first element includes the steps of depositing discrete amounts of setable material on a surface of the first element and inverting the element to permit the material to set under the influence of gravity. A method of reducing the spacing between first and second elements by remote activation means is also disclosed.

La présente invention concerne un moyen de raccordement conçu pour fixer ou libérer un premier élément (4) et un second élément (5). Ce moyen de raccordement comprend une broche de verrouillage (1) déplacée par un moyen d'activation distant entre une position de verrouillage, dans laquelle le pied (8) pousse la paroi (9) dans un évidement (10), et une position de déverrouillage. Le moyen d'activation distant peut être un moyen magnétique, électromagnétique ou un autre moyen approprié. Cette invention concerne également un procédé de fixation ou de libération des premier et second éléments par le biais du moyen d'activation distant. Par ailleurs, cette invention concerne un premier élément comportant un premier moyen (166) conçu pour coopérer avec un second moyen (165) posé sur un second élément, afin de faciliter le raccordement entre les premier et second éléments. Le procédé de fabrication du premier élément consiste d'abord à déposer des quantités distinctes de matériau posable sur une surface du premier élément et à retourner ensuite l'élément pour permettre au matériau de se stabiliser sous l'action de la gravité. Enfin, cette invention concerne un procédé de réduction de l'espace entre les premier et seconds éléments par un moyen d'activation distant.
