Abstract

A load-bearing connector connection includes two half-flanges encapsulated in a coupling body extending from a first end to a second end. The two assembled half-flanges cover the end of a cable having a plurality of plugs and a helical armor. The two half-flanges include on the inner face thereof a part of the threading engaging with the threading of the helical armor. A locking ring is positioned at the level of a plug housing adjacent to the first end of the coupling body. The coupling body is screwed to the plug housing. The second end of the coupling body is adjacent to a coupling nut. The coupling nut traverses the cable and is assembled with the coupling body by screwing.

Claims (21)

1. A load-bearing connector connection, comprising:

two half-flanges encapsulated in a coupling body extending from a first end to a second end, the two half-flanges assembled cover an end of a cable, the cable comprising a plurality of plugs and a helical armor, the two half-flanges comprise on an inner face thereof a part of a threading engaging with a threading of the helical armor;

the plurality of plugs nesting in an insulating insert of a plug housing;

a locking ring positioned at a level of the plug housing adjacent to the first end of the coupling body;

a coupling nut traversing the cable and is adjacent the second end of the coupling body;

a sealing ring positioned between the coupling nut and the cable, the sealing ring is housed in a cable gland positioned at a level of the second end of the coupling body; and

wherein the coupling body is configured to screw on the plug housing and the coupling nut is configured to screw on the coupling body.

2. A load-bearing connector connection, comprising:

two half-flanges encapsulated in a coupling body extending from a first end to a second end, the two half-flanges assembled cover an end of a cable, the cable comprising a plurality of plugs and a helical armor, the two half-flanges comprise on an inner face thereof a part of a threading engaging with a threading of the helical armor;

the plurality of plugs nesting in an insulating insert of a plug housing;

a locking ring positioned at a level of the plug housing adjacent to the first end of the coupling body;

a coupling nut traversing the cable and is adjacent the second end of the coupling body;

wherein the coupling body is configured to screw on the plug housing and the coupling nut is configured to screw on the coupling body; and

wherein an outer surface of each half-flange comprises ribs.

3. A load-bearing connector connection, comprising:

two half-flanges encapsulated in a coupling body extending from a first end to a second end, the two half-flanges assembled cover an end of a cable, the cable comprising a plurality of plugs and a helical armor, the two half-flanges comprise on an inner face thereof a part of a threading engaging with a threading of the helical armor;

the plurality of plugs nesting in an insulating insert of a plug housing;

a locking ring positioned at a level of the plug housing adjacent to the first end of the coupling body;

a coupling nut traversing the cable and is adjacent the second end of the coupling body;

a radial gap and an axial gap between the two half-flanges assembled and the coupling body, the radial gap and the axial gap are configured to prevent a rotation during screwing of the coupling body on the plug housing; and

wherein the coupling body is configured to screw on the plug housing and the coupling nut is configured to screw on the coupling body.
