In accordance with the present disclosure, leak of gas is suppressed when a coupler of a manifold gauge set including a gas hose is detached to a gas inlet/outlet valve of a thermal exchange equipment. To this end, the set includes a core-rod depressor extending from the coupler into the hose, and a depressor-adjustment unit disposed on the hose to adjust a position of the core-rod depressor.

A gas infuser includes a mixing chamber and a liquid injector. Gas is supplied into the mixing chamber and liquid flows through openings of the injector to mix with the gas in the mixing chamber and form a gas-infused liquid.

A pipeline assembly includes a hollow body having a first opening and a second opening. A valve port fluidly coupled to the first opening is provided on the body and a valve port seat is disposed in the valve port. A shutter is urged against the valve port seat by a spring fluidly de-coupling the second opening from the first opening and the valve port. A valve plug includes a check valve. When the valve plug is disposed in the valve port, the valve plug decouples the shutter from the valve port seat to fluidly couple the first opening and the second opening with a fluid flow in only a first direction when the check valve is in an open condition.

A water distribution pipe comprises an elbow formation along its length, an aperture-defining formation defining an aperture in a radially distal wall of the elbow formation along a radius of the curvature of the elbow, and an openable closure that is mounted or mountable to the aperture-defining formation and that closes the aperture.

A compressed-air distribution system contains a manifold containing a primary hose communicating with a secondary hose, and a plurality of tertiary hoses that fluidly communicate with and are connected to the secondary hose, each one of said plurality of tertiary hoses spaced apart along the length of the secondary hose, wherein each one of the tertiary hoses are independently connected to the secondary hose and in fluid communication therewith.

A female coupling device includes: a main body, and a clip member coupled to the main body, the clip member having a plurality of arms extending perpendicularly therefrom, with the plurality of arms forming at least one pair of arms, with the pair of arms including a first distance therebetween and a second distance therebetween, with the first distance being sized to engage a clip groove of a mating male coupling device, and with the second distance being sized to disengage the mating male coupling device. In a locked position, the pair of arms is positioned so that the first distance is adjacent to the mating male coupling device. In an unlocked position, the pair of arms is positioned so that the second distance is adjacent to the mating male coupling device.

A pipeline assembly includes a hollow body having a first opening and a second opening. A valve port fluidly coupled to the first opening is provided on the body and a valve port seat is disposed in the valve port. A shutter is urged against the valve port seat by a spring fluidly de-coupling the second opening from the first opening and the valve port. A valve plug includes a check valve. When the valve plug is disposed in the valve port, the valve plug decouples the shutter from the valve port seat to fluidly couple the first opening and the second opening with a fluid flow in only a first direction when the check valve is in an open condition.

A coupling device for joining two lines has two coupling parts that are coupled and connected together in the axial direction to connect the two lines to each other, and wherein the two coupling parts are fixed to each other via a plurality of spring-loaded coupling elements distributed in the circumferential direction of the coupling device, such that the two coupling parts are operable to be bent relative to each other with respect to a normal position by forces acting laterally with respect to the axial direction of the coupling device, and wherein the coupling elements in the bent position exert a restoring force on the coupling parts in the direction of the normal position by the spring load.

A pure electric modular subsea test tree is provided, which includes a connect-disconnect device, wherein the first channel is formed in the connect-disconnect device; the connect-disconnect device is provided with a locking assembly and a connection drive mechanism for driving the locking assembly, and the first electrical connection plug is embedded in the connect-disconnect device, and the connection drive mechanism is electrically connected with the first electrical connection plug; a shear-seal assembly, wherein a second channel communicated with the first channel is formed in the shear-seal assembly; the shear-seal assembly includes at least one shear-seal device capable of plugging the second channel; a connection part is formed on the shear-seal assembly; a heating device is arranged at one end of the shear-seal device far from the connection part. The disclosure relates to a pure electric modular subsea test tree, which has fast response speed and high operation safety.

A valve coupling for joining pipe elements includes a valve housing surrounded by coupling segments. Projections extend from the segments and engage channels in the valve housing. Engagement between the projections and the channels guides the segments as they are drawn together to engage the pipe elements and secures the valve housing between the segments.
