A device for shaping a duct made of plastics material or of deformable elastic material comprises two half-cages molded out of rigid plastics material and fastened together by resilient snap-fastening or hooking, the two half-cages when assembled together defining between them a housing that has the shape which is to be imparted to a portion of the duct. The invention is particularly suitable for mounting ducts of relatively large diameter in the engine compartments of motor vehicles.
A sleeve assembly for supporting flexible duct includes a frame with first and second frame sections. The frame sections are secured together by fastener subassemblies. The sleeve assembly accommodates flexible duct in various angular and straight configurations. The frame can comprise various suitable materials and skeletal or solid-exterior construction. The sleeve assembly is adapted for various installations in air distribution systems of heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems.
A sleeve assembly (2) for supporting flexible duct (4) includes a frame (6) with first and second frame sections (10a, b). The frame sections are secured together by fastener subassemblies (8). The sleeve assembly accommodates flexible duct in various angular and straight configurations. The frame can comprise various suitable materials and skeletal or solid-exterior construction. The sleeve assembly is adapted for various installations in air distribution systems of heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems.
