Let \(\varphi\) be an almost contact structure on a manifold \(M\). J. Janyška [Arch. Math., Brno 26, No. 4, 229-239 (1990; Zbl 0738.53014)] proved that there is no connection that is canonically induced by an almost complex structure \(\varphi\) on \(M\). In this paper, the author considers a fibre bundle \(\pi:Y\to M\), where the dimension of fibres equals \(\dim M\), and studies natural operators transforming tensor fields \(\varphi\) of type (1,1) on \(Y\) into connections on \(Y\). In particular, such connections are constructed when \(\varphi\) is an almost complex structure.
