摘要:
The invention relates to a method for fitting an end-fitting (82) of a flexible pipe (10), comprising the following steps: a) a flexible pipe (10) is supplied which comprises an internal tubular structure (16, 18, 20) and a plurality of tensile armour layers (26); b) an end-fitting (82) is supplied which comprises a sleeve (30) and a cylindrical cap (70) that coaxially caps said sleeve (30) in order to be able to create an annular chamber (76); c) said internal tubular structure is push-fitted into said sleeve (30) and said tensile armour layers (76) are configured so that they can extend around said sleeve; and d) said sleeve (30) is engaged inside said cylindrical cap (70) so as to be able to anchor said tensile armour layers inside said annular chamber (76). The method further comprises, after step (c), a dual step of longitudinally tensioning and then releasing said tensile armour layers (26).

This method comprises the steps of: - installing a rear locking collar (62) around an outer ply (25), - installing a first shaping guide (82) for shaping the folding of the end sections (32) of the outer ply (25), - folding the end sections (32) of the outer ply (25) rearwards, - folding the end sections (32) of an inner ply (24) rearwards. Before the step of folding the end sections (32) of the inner ply (24) rearwards, a second shaping guide (84) is installed for shaping the folding of the end sections (32) of the inner ply (24), the second shaping guide (84) being separate from the first shaping guide (82), the end sections (32) of the inner ply (24) bearing on the second shaping guide (84) after the folding step.
