Abstract (en)
[origin: FR2726208A1] A method for shrinking a ring (14) fitted over the free end (10a) of a flexible tube (10) on a rigid tubular member (12). The method uses a shrinking die (16) with an axial cavity (18) including a splayed section (18a) and a broad open end (20) whereat the diameter of the cavity is substantially the same as the greatest diameter (d) of said section. The shrinking die (16) is positioned so that at least the broad end (20) of the cavity is located around the portion (14) to be shrunk while its narrow end is in front of the tube, and, while axially supporting one of the ring (14) and the shrinking die (16), both are mutually axially moved in a direction (F) extending from the free end (10a) of the tube (10) towards the other end thereof.
