ABSTRACT:
A flexible hose connection comprises a premoulded length of hose having enlarged end portions. A pair of annular flanges are slidably mounted on the hose. Each enlarged end portion engages in a recess formed in a surface of a connecting part. A spigot in a bore in the part projects into the hose beyond the respective end portion; The flange has a convexly curved aperture therethrough, the minimum diameter of the aperture being less than the diameter of the respective end portion. Screws pass through holes in the flange and engage in screw-threaded bores in the part. Tightening of the screws deforms the end portion inwardly and outwardly to produce an effective high pressure seal which is simple to make and undo. Damage to the hose is minimized.
