Abstract
Bidirectional joining device with an integral passage between a first enclosure having a flange serving as a seat for a first plug provided with a first gasket and a second enclosure having an opening, a second plug and a second gasket, whereby the first gasket is able to form the sealing between the first plug and the gasket and the first plug and the second plug when the latter are joined together, wherein the second enclosure has an opening provided with a lateral edge, the second plug has a peripheral edge perpendicular to the axis of the two plugs, a side wall having a convex portion and a bottom, the second gasket has an external lateral face, an internal lateral face and an upper face turned towards the outside of the second enclosure, said external lateral face being sealingly and not-detachably fixed to the lateral edge of the second enclosure, said inner lateral face having a first bead able to cooperate with the convex portion of the second plug to ensure the joining together of said second plug and the drum by locking the bead between the convex portion and the edge, said upper face being provided with an external annular contact area which is able to ensure by deformation sealing between the drum and the flange of the second enclosure when the two enclosures are joined together, a second annular contact area ensuring by elastic deformation the covering of the periphery of the peripheral edge of the second plug and sealing means between the upper face of the gasket and the peripheral edge of the plug.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
