Means for resiliently connecting two tube sections coaxially end to end, and uses

Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to means for resiliently connecting two tubes coaxially end to end. A means according to the invention comprises a piece (3) bearing a muff joint (3a) which is fixed to the end of a first tube (1a) and a second piece bearing a female bearing (4a) which is fixed to the end of a second tube (1b). An axial bore (3b, 4b) passes through the two pieces, and a cable (5) passes through the said bore, bearing two threaded rod ends (6, 7) on which are engaged two perforated discs (12 and 13), each bearing on a spring (10, 11) which is tensioned by the tightening of a nut (14, 15). An application is the construction of vertical tubular supports exposed to vehicle impacts, in particular barriers for private parking places.
