ABSTRACT:
Radial device for anchoring a flexible tubular structure in an opening in a rigid wall, characterized by flexible tubular structure having a bead reinforced by an armature with linked segments, embedded in rubber, composed of segments made integral by a nonrigid linking element in order to allow bead to bend in the axial direction so that it can slide into the hole in rigid wall.
The invention applies to any industrial assembly, for example expansion joints, or any assembly on a vehicle, such as air suspension diaphragms.
