An assembly includes a first waveguide and a second waveguide extending longitudinally along a first axis, each having an end, each comprising a first annular groove, the two ends being contiguous along the first axis, and an assembly device for assembling the first waveguide and the second waveguide, wherein the assembly device comprises a sleeve surrounding the ends of the first and second waveguides and having an inner wall comprising two first annular grooves facing the first annular grooves of the first and second waveguides, two reversibly deformable waveguides, each being positioned in a first annular groove of the sleeve and positioned in a first annular groove of the first and second waveguides, so as to block the first and second waveguides in terms of translation along the first axis.
An assembly comprising a first hollow waveguide and a second hollow waveguide extending longitudinally along a first axis (Z), each having an end, the two ends being contiguous along the first axis (Z), and an assembly device for assembling the first waveguide and the second waveguide,
