    When coupling tubular parts by interlocking, it is possible that the seal (6) interposed therebetween rolls on itself, pinches or is damaged. However, a twisted or damaged seal no longer ensures proper sealing and it is very difficult to detect it. The present application relates to a tool (18) for installing a seal (6) between two tubular male (2) and female (4) parts, comprising a ring (38) said compression intended to encircle the male part and to exert a compression on the joint (6) before carrying out the assembly. The tool also includes a tongue (44) capable of being positioned at the level of a chamfered surface (14) of the female tubular part. The tongue (44) thus makes it possible to offer the pre-compressed joint to the dimensions of the female part a continuous stroke making it possible to prevent any kinking or other effect altering the seal.

    The present invention relates to a seal installation tool for sealing between tubular parts and the installation method using this tool. More particularly, the present invention applies to annular seals capable of interposing between different types of tubular parts intended to couple such as for example a pipe with a connector, a female end piece with a male end piece. It finds particular application in the field of aircraft manufacturing as well as maintenance thereof.
    TECHNICAL AREA
    According to a particular application, seals are widely used on board aircraft. In particular, they provide sealing between the parts forming the fluid transport pipes.
    During the blind installation of a joint during a pipe coupling, the displacement of one part compared to another can have an undesired effect on the seal provided between them altering the tightness, such as for example twisting, pinching, damage, deformation, modification of one or more physical characteristics. Specifics specific to assembled parts can increase the risks of this effect or these effects on the joint. For example, the end of certain parts forming a pipe is internally chamfered. The greater the slope of the chamfer, the greater the risks of the effect (s) affecting sealing. In another example, a joint can be positioned in a groove in a pipe intended to receive it by stretching. Now it happens that the seal rolls on itself and undergoes other effects such as those given by way of example above during the assembly of the parts to be coupled: indeed, by way of illustration, a part of the seal protruding beyond the groove forms a grip susceptible to friction from the surface with which the seal must come into contact to ensure sealing, to move the seal.
    When a joint undergoes one or more effects of the type described above, it no longer provides a proper seal.
    PRIOR ART
    To date, there are no tools that can provide mechanical support and avoid an effect altering the seal on a joint during its installation. In addition, detecting such a modification on the joint is difficult. Indeed, the assembly being carried out blind, this modification is not necessarily visible and this more especially as the zones in which the joint is mounted are of reduced visibility. Thus, the modification of a joint is very often detected with the appearance of a leak. Therefore, detection is only done after the system provided with the seal has been put into service.
    The present invention therefore aims to provide a new tool to avoid effects on the joint by altering the seal such as twisting or damage thereof on any tubular part and in particular of chamfered end and provided with a groove in which the seal is installed.
    STATEMENT OF THE INVENTION
    To do this, the present invention provides a tool for installing an annular seal intended to seal between two tubular male and female parts, the male part being provided with a groove in which the seal is inserted. and the end of the female part being chamfered, characterized in that the tool comprises a clamping collar having a cylindrical inner face with a flat surface forming a so-called compression ring intended to encircle the male part at least at the level of the groove and exerting compression on the joint, the two ends of the collar being one called the female end because it is intended to come into contact with the female part and the other male end, the female end of the collar having a tongue projecting towards the outside of which one of the faces forms part of the cylindrical inner face of the collar, the tongue having a shape pe allowing to come into contact with the chamfered surface of the female part.
    The tab allows the pre-compressed joint to the dimensions of the female part to be offered a continuous stroke making it possible to prevent any kinking or other effect altering the seal.
    The installation tool has at least one of the following optional features, taken individually or in combination.

    WAY OF CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
    As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the present invention relates to the coupling of a male tubular part 2 inside a female tubular part 4 of any type and more specifically to the installation of a seal 6 annular seal between the coupled tubular parts. The term "tubular part" is taken in a very generic sense since it covers both a conduit, tube, end piece, connector ... namely any tubular element intended to be coupled with another tubular element by fitting, fitting or equivalent. The tubular part is intended for all types of applications, for all types of fluids such as water, oil, air, oxygen or other. The term "annular" covers a generic definition, namely any form closed in on itself such as that of a torus for example. The joint can have any type of section; it can be for example a joint of section in O, in D, quadrilobe, or other ... It can be lubricated or not lubricated.
    In the embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 19, the example is taken of the installation of an annular O-shaped seal, that is to say annular, of circular section between a male connector 2 and a female tube 4. As shown in Figure 1, the annular seal 6 is pre-installed in an external groove 8 of the male end piece 2. The seal 6 is inserted and held in place between the two sides 10, 12 of the groove 8 visible in FIG. 3. The free end of the female tube 4 intended to come and surround the free end of the male end piece has a surface 14 chamfered (see Figure 4); the greater the angle a between the outer surface 16 of the tube 2 and the chamfered surface 14, the greater the risk of effects altering the seal such as, for example, twisting, damage, pinching, deformation and / or modification of one or more physical properties of the joint increases. In the illustrated embodiment, the angle a varies between 20 and 30 degrees.
    As shown in FIGS. 2 to 6, the installation tool 18 comprises an annular clamping collar 20 intended to surround the male tubular part 2, namely here the male end piece 2 to exert a compressive force on the seal 6 installed in the groove 8. The tool 18 thus allows the coupling between the tubular male 2 and female 4 parts to be made with a pre-compressed joint 6 as shown more precisely in FIGS. 4 and 5. The term pre-compressed is used to signify that the seal is compressed before being compressed by the interlocking of the tubular parts together during their coupling. The compression puts the seal 6 to the final dimensions that it will take once installed inside the female part 4 (shown in FIG. 6) which allows any boss or relief to be erased during the insertion of a part in the other forming grip and likely to cause an effect of type for example twisting, deformation, damage of the joint. The final dimension of the compressed joint corresponds to the internal diameter of the female part 4 at the level where the joint is in contact with the female part beyond the chamfered surface.
    As clearly visible in FIG. 7 showing a possible embodiment of the tool, the collar 20 comprises at least two portions 22, 24 hinged together, two by two, two of them being connected by a closing mechanism 26 /opening. The collar 20 surrounds the male tubular part 2, namely in the example illustrated the male end piece 2. The opening / closing of the collar 20 by means of the closing mechanism 26 makes it possible to mount / dismount the collar 20 around the tubular part without having to dismantle it and guarantees that the desired diameter is maintained.
    In the embodiment illustrated in Figure 7, the collar 20 comprises two portions 22, 24 extending in a semicircle. One of the ends 22a, 24a of the portions 22, 24 are connected to each other in an articulated manner by a pivoting link 28: the pivoting link 28 is produced using a pin 30 inserted in an orifice provided in correspondence in the the aforementioned ends of the portions 22, 24 allowing the portions 22, 24 to pivot relative to each other about the axis 30: in this case, the axis 30 is here a pin. The other free end 22b, 24b of the portions 22, 24 is connected by the closing / opening mechanism 26 of any type and for example with quick coupler such as a grasshopper closure or a toggle or with a simpler pin mechanism 30 as in the illustrated embodiment. The mechanism 26 can be doubled by a second complementary closing / opening mechanism to avoid that with the wear of the first mechanism, a clearance is created which would modify the diameter of the collar 20. As shown in FIG. 14, the free ends 22b, 24b of the portions 22, 24 are provided with a mechanical stop 31 so as to block the movement from one end of the portion to the other during closing. The stop 31 makes it possible to block the portions 22, 24 in the closed position. In the form illustrated in FIG. 14, the free ends 22b, 24b of the portions 22, 24 have a thickness reduced in a complementary manner so as to come to be superimposed. The stop 31 is formed by the passage between the reduced thickness of the free end 22b, 24b and the thickness of the portions 22 and 24 outside the ends. The free ends 22b, 24b of the portions 22, 24 having a disc shape, the stop 31 has a partially circular shape.
    In the illustrated embodiment, the collar 20 is made to the dimensions of the male end to which it is applied. It is therefore not necessary to adjust the dimension of the diameter of the collar 20 and therefore the pivoting link 28 and the closing / opening mechanism 26 are produced in the same way by a pin attachment system 30: a pin 30 is inserted into corresponding holes 32 made in the portions 22, 24. The tensile force exerted by the closure of the collar 20 is converted into compression force on the seal 6 placed on the male tubular part 2.
    As illustrated in FIGS. 3, 10 and 11, the inner part of the annular clamping collar 20 intended to come opposite and in contact with the male tubular part 2 comprises a cylindrical wall or face 34 of circular cross-sectional area plane and an adjacent frustoconical wall or face 36 in the longitudinal direction of the collar associated with the part 2. The collar 20 at the level of the cylindrical part 34 forms a ring 38 known as of compression around an axis XX of revolution, axis being in the longitudinal direction of the collar 20 and of the part 2. The axis XX is also axis of revolution for the frustoconical part 36. A plane perpendicular to the X-X axis is called in the following radial plane. The compression ring 38 is intended to encircle the male tubular part 2 at least at the level of the groove 8 and to exert compression on the seal 6 placed in the groove 8. As will be seen below, the assembly can be carried out in a single step in which the ring 38 is directly applied to the tubular piece 2 male or with an intermediate step in which the piece 2 is introduced inside the collar 20.
    As shown in Figures 3 to 6, the two ends 40, 42 of the collar 20 in the direction of the axis XX, represented by two planar surfaces 40, 42 each lying in a radial plane are one called the female end 40 because intended to come into contact with the female tubular part and the other male end 42. The female end 40 of the collar 20 has a tongue 44, projecting outwards relative to the radial plane of the female end 40.
    During the coupling of the male tubular part inside the female tubular part, the tongue 44 of the tool 18 which encloses the male tubular part comes into contact against the chamfered surface 14 of the female tubular part and counts given its complementary shape allows the compressed gasket 6 to be guided towards the non-chamfered inner surface of the female tubular part while retaining its dimensions throughout the installation and thus avoiding any incident. The tool thus decreases the edge formed by the change of surface between the non-chamfered surface of the male tubular part 2 and the chamfered surface 14 of the female tubular part 4 and allows the insertion of the joint without effect on the joint as a damage, change of shape, twisting.
    As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the tongue 44 has a shape of a prism with a curved right angle and closed on itself, the flat lateral face 46 opposite the right angle is intended to come into contact with the chamfered surface 14 . One of the faces 48 of the prism forming the right angle forms part of the cylindrical face 34 of the compression ring 38: said face 48 of the prism will be called the internal face. Due to this prism shape at a right angle complementary to the shape of the chamfered end of the female tube, when the tongue 44 is applied against the surface 14, the inner face 48 is parallel to the outer surface 16 of the tube 2. L other face 50 of the prism forming the right angle forms a body with the collar at its end 40 lying in a radial plane.
    Preferably, the dimensions of the tongue and in particular the angle β formed between the inner face 48 and the lateral face 46 are adapted to the dimensions of the chamfered surface 14 of the female tubular part so that the maximum of the surface of the face 46 side of the tongue 44 is in contact with the chamfered surface 14: the goal is that the inner face 46 of the tongue comes flush with the inner surface 49 of the female tubular part located beyond the chamfered surface 14 so as not to form only one surface when inserting the seal inside the female tubular part. Thus, in the present invention, according to an illustrative embodiment, the angle β is identical to the angle a and between 20 and 30 degrees.
    As seen above, the inner part of the collar 20 has a frustoconical face 36 whose radius decreases from the male end 42 to the cylindrical face 34. The frustoconical face 36 makes it possible to compress the seal 6 gradually. In the case where the collar 20 is not directly applied to the male tubular part 2 but the male tubular part 2 is inserted inside the collar 20, the narrowing of the frustoconical inner face 36 of the collar deforms the seal 6 by progressive compression until it reaches the cylindrical face 34. The cylindrical face 34 has dimensions such that the compression of the seal is identical to that exerted by the interior surface of the female tubular part. To do this, the internal radius of the collar 20 decreases to a value corresponding to the internal radius at the face 34 which must be identical to the internal diameter of the female part at the level where the seal is in contact with the female part at beyond the chamfered surface.
    Furthermore, the frustoconical face 36 forms an angle Ω with the face 34. This angle must offer a slope allowing the progressive compression of the joint. According to an illustrative embodiment, this angle varies between 5 and 20 degrees.
    As will be seen below, the coupling between the tubular parts can be done directly or in two stages. In the case of a coupling in two stages, and as illustrated by FIGS. 7 to 9, the tool 18 comprises a base 52 independent of the collar 20 having a shape allowing the collar to be held in a position allowing the coupling with the male tubular part 2. The mating process initially includes an additional phase of preliminary preparation. This phase includes a step of installing the collar on the base 52 so that the central axis of the base coincides with the axis X-X of the collar. In this step, the male part 2 is then inserted inside the collar 20 held in position by the base 52. When the male part is introduced, the male part is threaded around a portion of the base as it will be seen later allowing the axis of the male part to coincide with the central axis of the base and the axis XX of the collar in order to guarantee a linear translation of the male part 2 along the axis XX to condition the joint. in its operating compression. In a second phase, the male part 2 engaged with the tool 18 is assembled with the female tubular part 4. The base 52 is provided with specific elements in order to facilitate the installation of the collar 20 on the male tubular part 2.
    Thus, as shown in Figures 7 to 11, the base 52 has a flat base face 54 for resting on any flat surface 56. The base 52 comprises at least one cavity 58 making it possible to receive at least one appendage 60 of the collar 20 of a shape corresponding to the cavity 58 and to maintain the collar 20 in a position allowing the insertion of the male tubular part 2. When the appendage (s) 60 of the collar 20 are inserted into the cavities 58 of the base, the axis XX of the compression ring 38 is perpendicular to the plane of the flat surface 56 on which the base 52 rests. Thus the tubular part 2 male is inserted into the collar 20 so that the central axis XX of the tubular part is found perpendicular to the surface 56 on which the base 52 rests. The appendage (s) 60 thus make it possible to offer both the function of keying, the operator can not go wrong in the direction of use and holding in position of the collar for the installation of the male tubular part. Excavations 62 are provided in the base 52 to allow the passage of elements of any type projecting from the collar 20 and / or the male tubular part 2 such as, for example, the pins 30 of the collar 20 and / or the 'alleviate.
    It is considered in the following description that the surface 56 on which the base 52 rests is horizontal and that any perpendicular direction is vertical.
    The base 52 comprises in its center and projecting outwards and upwards (namely from the face opposite the base face 54) a portion 64 of tubular conduit of the same shape as the male tubular part 2 and slightly smaller in diameter so as to allow said part 2 to be threaded around said portion 64 which guides the movement. To engage the male tubular part inside the collar, the male tubular part 2 is placed around the portion 64 of the conduit.
    A stop 66 is provided so as to stop the displacement of the male tubular part 2 when the collar 20 is in position, namely when the compression ring 38 is positioned at the level of the groove 8.
    Figures 12 and 13 show the second stage of the coupling which will be described later.
    In the case of a direct assembly between the tubular parts shown in FIGS. 14 to 19 without passing through an intermediate part such as the base 52, the collar 20 has a skirt 68 intended to come to abut around the outer surface of the female tubular part for positioning and helping to maintain the collar 20. The skirt 68 may be continuous over the entire periphery of the collar or, as shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, in several parts 70, 72, 74 and 76 separated by spaces 78, 80, 82, 84. The collar 20 also has at least two tabs 86, 88, 90, 92 for guidance regularly distributed around the periphery of the collar 20. In the illustrated embodiment, the collar 20 comprises four tabs 86, 88 , 90, 92 guide. The tabs 86, 88, 90, 92 provide a polarizing function allowing the operator handling the tool not to err on the side when handling. The legs 86, 88, 90, 92 also make it possible to guide the movement of the male tubular part 2 when it is inserted inside the collar 20. In the illustrated embodiment, the legs 86, 88, 90, 92 have an overall parallelepiped shape of curved rectangular section in order to obtain centering.
    As seen above, assembly is done blindly and is very often carried out in environments that are not easy to access. To verify that the assembly is done correctly, the collar at least at the faces 34 cylindrical and 36 frustoconical are made of transparent material. It is thus possible for the operator to check the correct behavior of the joint during assembly.
    The process for installing the seal during the assembly of one tubular part to another is described in the following. The installation process described in the first place is that carried out in two stages using an intermediate piece such as the base 52 and then in the second place without an intermediate piece when assembling the tubular pieces directly to each other.
    Whether in any of the alternatives presented, the process for installing the seal comprises the following two steps carried out successively:
    - compression of the seal 6 installed on the male tubular part 2 using the tool compression ring 38 which encircles the male part at least at the groove 8 and which exerts compression on the joint;
    insertion of the male part 2 into the female part 4 using the tool 18, the tongue 44 of which projects outwards is positioned at the interior surface of the female tubular part, the tongue 44 being placed in contact with the chamfered surface 14 of the female part.
    In the case of a two-phase installation illustrated in FIGS. 3, 7 to 13, in a first preliminary preparation phase, the collar 20 is positioned closed on the base 8. The collar 20 is placed on the base 52. The or the appendages 60 of the collar fit into the cavities 58 of the corresponding base 52. The operator thus ensures that the collar is placed in the correct direction.
    Once the collar is held in position on the base 52, the male end piece 2 is placed around the portion 64 of tubular conduit of the tool 18. The operator then only has to gently push it down . This could be done automatically using a suitable piston. The slight slope offered by the frustoconical face 36 of the collar allows the seal 6 to be progressively compressed to the desired dimension when the groove 8 reaches the level of the compression ring 38. The movement of the male end piece 2 is interrupted and blocked by the stop 66.
    In a second phase, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the male end piece 2 on which the gasket 6 is kept compressed by the collar 20 is assembled with the female tube 4 by interlocking. The collar 20 is in position on the male tubular part. The male tubular part provided with the collar is positioned at the level of the female tubular part so that the tongue comes into contact with the chamfered surface. The operator pushes the male end piece inside the female tube, whether straight or bent as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13. The groove 8 of the male end piece in which the seal 6 is located slides on the surface inside of the collar 20 then on the interior surface of the female tube without undergoing any discontinuity, the surfaces being at the same level thanks to the tongue 44. The seal 6 is pre-compressed by the collar 20 and the tongue allows the joint to remain pre- compressed until complete penetration into the female tubular part, namely beyond the chamfered surface, namely changes in shape of the internal surface of the female part. When the male end piece is assembled inside the female tube, the groove 8 is placed entirely inside the female tube and the collar 20 can be removed using the closing / opening means 26 either here by removing a pin 30.
    Figures 14 to 19 illustrate the process of inserting the joint directly when assembling one tubular part to another. The collar 20 in this case includes tabs 86, 88, 90, 92 allowing both to immediately identify the direction of use and to guide the male end piece inside the female tube.
    The skirt 68 of the collar makes it possible to position it around the female tube 4. The male end piece 2 is then placed in the retained collar and guided by the guide tabs 86, 88, 90, 92. When the end piece 2 moves along the frustoconical face 36, the seal is gradually compressed. The male tubular part continues to run, pushed by the operator inside the female tubular part. The gentle slope offered by the frustoconical face of the collar makes it possible to gradually compress the seal to the desired dimension when the groove of the male tubular part reaches the level of the compression ring of the collar 20. The groove of the male end piece in which the seal is located slides on the inner surface of the collar and more precisely on the frustoconical face then 34 5 cylindrical then on the chamfered inner surface of the female tubular piece without discontinuity, the surfaces being flush thanks to the shape of the tongue complementary to the shape of the extreme chamfered surface of the female tubular part. When the male end piece is assembled inside the female tubular part, the groove is placed entirely inside the female tubular part beyond the chamfered surface and the collar can be removed using the closing / opening means either here by removing the pin 30.
    As the assembly progresses, it is possible for the operator to check the state of the joint due to the transparent material used for the collar. Tool 15 can be designed or adapted to any type of workpiece diameter.
