Abstract
A device includes a hollow rigid member () and a curvature limiter () movable relative to the hollow rigid member (). A releasable device () for axial immobilization of the curvature limiter () on the flexible line () in at least one first direction along a travel axis (X-X'). The axial immobilization device () includes a locking member () axially secured to the flexible line (), and a member () for fitting the locking member (), axially secured to the curvature limiter (). Those members () are movable relative to each other around the travel axis (X-X′) between a configuration for axial immobilization of the flexible line () on the curvature limiter (), and a configuration for axial travel of the flexible line () across the curvature limiter ().
