A flexible connector (30) to be used individually or in an assembly of connectors. The connector (30) includes a collar (32) comprised of a wall (34) having a cylindrical inner surface (38). The collar wall (34) defines two opposed openings (40, 42). The connector (30) further includes a link (50) comprised of a link wall (52) having at least one spherically-shaped outer surface (54). The link wall (52) defines at least one open end (60) to allow for the passage of a fluid. The link wall (52) is positioned within one of the opposed openings (40, 42) in spaced relationship to the cylindrical inner surface (38) of the collar wall (34). Bearing means (64, 72) and gasket means (86) are positioned in the space defined by the spaced relationship to allow the link to articulate with respect to the collar (32) and also to seal the space between the outer surface of the link (50) and the inner wall (38) of the collar (32).

accord flexible (30) à utiliser isolément ou dans un ensemble de raccords. Le raccord (30) comprend un collier (32) constitué d'une paroi (34) ayant une surface intérieure cylindrique (38). La paroi (34) du collier délimite deux ouvertures opposées (40, 42). Le raccord (30) comprend en outre une rotule (50) constituée d'une paroi de rotule (52) présentant au moins une surface extérieure sphérique (54). La paroi de rotule (52) comporte au moins une extrémité ouverte (60) pour permettre le passage d'un fluide. La paroi de rotule (52) est située dans l'une des ouvertures opposées (40, 42) en relation espacée avec la surface intérieure cylindrique (38) de la paroi du collier (34). Des éléments d'appui (64, 72) et des garnitures de joint (86) sont placés dans l'espace défini par la relation espacée pour que la rotule puisse s'articuler dans le collier (32) et pour assurer l'étanchéité entre la surface extérieure de la rotule (50) et la paroi intérieure (38) du collier (32).
