An improved rod connector assembly and method for mechanically fastening two rods (230, 260) together. Generally planar mating surfaces (234, 248) of a first rod assembly (230) and a second rod assembly (260)are compressively coupled by a rod union (204). The compressive load by the rod union (204) is derived from a tapered surface (208)that provides an interference fit to a corresponding tapered surface (209) on the first rod assembly (230) . Clearance diameters provided within the rod union (204) accommodate axial misalignment of the first rod assembly (230) and the second rod assembly (260). The second rod assembly (260) includes an adjustable rod adapter (240) to provide coupling to rods of various lengths. The first rod assembly (230) includes an internal cavity (236) to receive a portion of the second rod (260) that may protrude from the adjustable rod adapter (240).

L'invention concerne un ensemble raccord à tige amélioré ainsi qu'un procédé destiné à fixer mécaniquement deux tiges (230, 260) ensemble. Des surfaces d'accouplement généralement planes (234, 248) d'un premier ensemble tige (230) et d'un second ensemble tige (260) sont couplées par compression au moyen d'un raccord-union (204). La charge de compression exercée par le raccord-union (204) est dérivée d'une surface tronconique (208) permettant un ajustement avec serrage à une surface effilée correspondante (209) du premier ensemble tige (230). Des diamètres de dégagement situés à l'intérieur du raccord-union (204) permettent une adaptation à un désalignement axial du premier ensemble tige (230) et du second ensemble tige (260). Le second ensemble tige (260) comprend un adaptateur de tige réglable (240) permettant un couplage à des tiges de différentes longueurs. Le premier ensemble tige (230) comprend une cavité interne (236) permettant de recevoir une partie de la seconde tige (260) qui peut faire saillie à partir de l'adaptateur de tige réglable (240).
