In the case of a hose connector assembly (1) it is provided for a retaining plate (15) to be used for axially fixing at least two hoses (6, 7, 8) in corresponding hose receptacles (3, 4, 5). The hoses (6, 7, 8) are insertable into respective recesses (16, 17, 18) of the retaining plate (15) by way of a lateral insertion movement (19), and the hoses (6, 7, 8) engage behind the recesses (16, 17, 18).

A dual containment fitting may include a primary tubing, a secondary tubing, and a dual containment body. The secondary tubing may surround and be concentric with a first portion of the primary tubing forming a first leak containment space between the primary tubing and the secondary tubing. The dual containment body may include a flare fitting portion and a primary containment nut portion. The flare fitting portion may surround and be concentric with the primary tubing forming a second leak containment space between the primary tubing and the flare fitting portion. The primary containment nut portion may surround and be concentric with the flared end of the primary tubing forming a third leak containment space between the primary tubing and the primary containment nut portion. The primary containment nut portion may include at least one leak passage hole connecting the third leak containment space with the second leak containment space.

A block fitting assembly includes a first block, a second block, and a first sealing element disposed between the first block and the second block. A clamping device applies a clamping force for compressing the first sealing element between the first block and the second block in an axial direction of the block fitting assembly. A first heel structure projects axially from one of the first block or the second block and projects towards the other of the first block or the second block. The first heel structure is configured to be spaced apart from or to contact the other of the first block or the second block depending on a temperature of the first block.

An example connector includes: a block having a plurality of through-holes; a clamp plate having a plurality of through-holes aligned with the plurality of through-holes of the block; and a plurality of fittings, each fitting having a first end inserted through a respective through-hole in the clamp plate to be received within a corresponding through-hole in the block. Each fitting has a second end opposite the first end and configured to couple to a tube. Each fitting has grooves for mounting a radial seal and a retaining ring. The retaining ring is disposed between the clamp plate and the block.

The connection assembly (100) which includes a flange (140) has two internal orifices (150) crossing through and centered on orifice axes (A150) parallel to each other, a front surface (142) and a rear surface (144) parallel to a transverse plane (P140) transverse to the orifice axes (A150), two fluidic coupling elements (170), that have a male body (172) received in a corresponding internal orifice, and a cover (120), configured for being attached to a support (110) in a mounted configuration of the connection assembly. The flange can move with respect to the cover according to a movement supported by the transverse plane, whereas for each male body, a second gasket (188) is interposed radially between the male body and an internal radial surface (S162) of the corresponding internal orifice, each male body being mounted in the corresponding internal orifice and can be tilted with respect to the corresponding orifice axis.

A pipeline including at least first and second portions, each comprising outer and inner pipes, at least one coupling system connecting the first and second portions and including at least a downstream flange ring connected to at least one of the outer and inner pipes of the first portion, at least an upstream flange ring connected to at least one of the outer and inner pipes of the second portion, connecting elements connecting the upstream and downstream flange rings, first and second annular seals interposed between the upstream and downstream flange rings and configured to delimit, with the upstream and downstream flange rings, a buffer space containing an atmosphere, the pipeline comprising at least one leak detection system configured to determine at least one characteristic of the atmosphere of the buffer space.

A multidirectional runner assembly for positioning a carrier pipe within a surrounding casing pipe. Each multidirectional runner assembly has at least one ball transfer assembly at least partially protruding from the runner assembly, in order to contact an inner surface of a surrounding casing pipe. The ball transfer assemblies reduce static and/or kinetic friction forces during installation of a carrier pipe within the central bore of a casing pipe, permit multidirectional orientation of the runners within the casing pipe, and provide greater load support.

A coupling device has two releasably interconnected coupling parts which are movably arranged relative to one another in at least one direction of rotation. Each coupling part has fluid channels which are separated in groups from each other and open into respectively assignable connecting spaces. The connecting spaces are located at adjacent end sides of the coupling parts and are separated from one another within a coupling part.
