Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2348239A1] In accordance with the present invention there is provided a connector for securing a plurality of ducts (120) in a tensile resistant manner, the connector comprising: a clamp body (140,240) which comprises a plurality of clamp members (146) and a plurality of clamp lumens (141,142,241,242) defined therebetween; wherein the plurality of clamp members (146) is responsive to a radial compression of the clamp body (140,240) to an extent that the cross- sectional area of the clamp lumens (141,142,241,242) reduces under radial compression of the clamp body (140,240). Embodiments of the invention provide a configurationally flexible connector which permits the branching of multiple ducts from a given bundle in a small-footprint arrangement.
