Claims (10)

1. Structure de serrage pour relier deux composants (1, 2) en matière plastique moulée, la structure de serrage comprenant deux séries continues d'éléments complémentaires semblables s'imbriquant l'un dans l'autre (10, 11), avec des intervalles entre éléments qui sont complémentaires des éléments chacune des deux séries précitées d'éléments (10, 11) étant formée intégralement avec et supportées par un desdits composants (1, 2) en matière plastique moulée, chacun desdits éléments (10, 11 ) étant plus large à son extrémité (20 et 22) dans la direction longitudinale qu'à proximité de sa base (21 et 23) de manière que les éléments mutuellement imbriqués soient bloqués en étant empêchés de se séparer, caractérisée en ce que lesdits composants (1, 2) comportent des surfaces périphériques de contact (14, 15) et en ce que chacun des éléments (10, 11) comporte des surfaces d'accrochage inclinées latéralement (24, 25 et 26, 27) pour exercer sur lesdits composants (1, 2) une force transversale appliquant lesdits surfaces périphériques de contact (14, 15) l'une contre l'autre pour établir un joint étanche entre les composants (1, 2).
2. Structure selon la revendication 1, caractérisée en ce qu'un (2) des deux composants précités (1, 2) comporte un canal périphérique (3) tandis que l'autre d'un des deux composants précités comporte une paroi (5) d'une épaisseur essentiellement égale à la largeur dudit canal et dont le bord s'étend dans ledit canal.
3. Structure selon la revendication 1 ou 2, caractérisée en ce que ledit composant cité en premier (2) est un couvercle en matière plastique moulée et en ce que ledit autre composant (1) est un récipient, le haut de ladite paroi (5) définissant l'embouchure ouverte du récipient, lesdits éléments imbriqués l'un dans l'autre (10, 11) se verrouillant mutuellement pour fixer le couvercle en contact étanche sur le récipient.
4. Structure selon la revendication 3, caractérisée en ce que ledit canal (3) prévu sur le couvercle (2) comporte une paroi radialement intérieure (13), en ce que ladite paroi de canal se prolonge vers le bas en direction du fond du récipient du fond en dessous de la surface de fermeture dudit couvercle, en ce que ladite paroi (5) du récipient comporte une surface inclinée (15) située en dessous desdits éléments d'accrochage (10, 11), la paroi de prolongement de canal entrant en contact avec ladite paroi inclinée pour coincer ledit couvercle sur ledit récipient et former une surface d'étanchéité pour ledit récipient.
5. Structure selon la revendication 4, caractérisée en ce que ladite paroi radialement intérieure (13) et ladite paroi de canal prévue sur le couvercle (2) sont jointes ensemble à une extrémité inférieure par une surface uniformément incurvée s'étendant entre elles.
6. Structure selon la revendication 2, caractérisée en ce que le composant cité en premier (2) et comportant le canal périphérique (3) s'engage télescopiquement à l'intérieur de la paroi périphérique (30) dudit autre composant (1 ), la paroi (13) du canal périphérique (3) qui est dirigée vers la paroi périphérique (12) supportant l'une (11) desdites deux séries continues périphériques d'éléments complémentaires semblables en imbriquement mutuel.
7. Structure selon la revendication 4, caractérisée en ce que les côtés desdits éléments (10, 11) sont inclinés de manière que les surfaces latérales (24, 25) de chaque élément (11) prévu sur la paroi interne (13) convergent radialement vers l'intérieur et que les surfaces latérales (26, 27) des éléments (10) prévus sur la paroi externe (12) convergent radialement vers l'extérieur, de façon qu'une pression pour l'accrochage desdites deux séries d'éléments produise une force radiale poussant lesdites parois (12, 13) jusque dans un accrochage étroit.
8. Structure selon la revendication 6, caractérisée en ce que chaque élément desdites deux séries d'élémentes en imbriquement mutuel (10, 11) est étroit dans une zone adjacente à sa base (21, 23) et s'élargit vers sa tête (20 et 22) à l'extrémité opposée, les intervalles entre lesdits éléments ayant la forme desdits éléments, de manière que lesdits intervalles d'une série reçoivent les éléments complémentaires de la série d'interconnexions avec emboîtement des parties larges de tête (20 et 22) des éléments de chaque série dans les intervalles élargis existant entre les éléments de l'autre série et avec inclinaison des côtés (24, 25 et 26, 27) des éléments de contact des deux séries dans la direction du mouvement télescopique afin de coincer chaque élément entre les deux éléments adjacents de l'autre série.
9. Structure selon la revendication 4, caractérisée en ce que les intervalles existant entre les éléments (10) prévus sur la paroi comportent des rainures (32) dans le fond desdits intervalles pour permettre l'échappement de liquide.
10. Structure selon la revendication 4, caractérisée en ce que lesdits éléments comportent des moulures périphériques espacées et s'étendant latéralement (33) pour permettre l'insertion d'un outil entre lesdits -composants (1, 2) pour une séparation desdits éléments d'accrochage (10, 11).
