Estimating the term…
The invention relates to an assembly including a first pipe length (1) and a second accommodating mechanical pipe length (2), said first length (1) being assembled in said second length (2) by means of an interface joint (4), conductor of electric current. As it is assumed that said first length (1) and said second length (2) are also conductors of electric current, the joint (4) thus provides good sealing between the first pipe length (1) and the second pipe length (2) in order to prevent leakages of fluid and to prevent the formation of inopportune electric arcs due, for example, to static electricity.
Assembly including a first pipe length (1, 101) and a second pipe length (2, 102), said first length (1, 101) being assembled in said second length (2, 102) by means of at least one interface joint (4, 104) capable of coming into contact with said lengths (1, 2, 101, 102), wherein the joint (4, 104), the first (1, 101) pipe length and the second (2, 102) pipe length are conductors of current, and that said joint (4, 104) is overmoulded in one of said lengths (1, 102) so as to be in electrical contact with said length (1, 102).
Method of assembling a first pipe length (1, 101) into a second pipe length (2, 102) by means of at least one interface joint (4, 104) wherein the first pipe length (1, 101), the second pipe length (2, 102) and the joint (4, 104) are conductors of current, and in that said at least one joint (4, 104) is overmoulded in at least one of said lengths (1, 2, 101, 102) so as to be in electrical contact with said at least one length (1, 2, 101, 102), said method including a step for inserting the first length (1, 101) of pipe into the second length (2, 102) of pipe so as to position said at least one joint (4, 104) in electrical contact with the other length (1, 2, 101, 102).
Length (1, 2, 101, 102) of pipe, wherein is an electrical conductor and has at least one interface joint (4, 104) that is an electrical conductor, said joint (4, 104) being overmoulded in said length (1, 2, 101, 102) so as to be in electrical contact with the latter (1, 2, 101, 102).
