A fluid passage device including a passage for flowing high-pressure fluid of a predetermined or higher pressure comprises a sac bore cylinder of a metal, which includes therein a closed passage and a branch passage. The closed passage is shaped to extend straightly in a predetermined direction and has a closed top end, and the branch passage is branched off from the closed passage. A top end part of the closed passage at a closed side is defined by a ceiling wall surface, which is perpendicular to the predetermined direction, a passage wall surface, which is parallel to the predetermined direction, and a connecting wall surface, which connects the ceiling wall surface and the passage wall surface. The connecting wall surface is shaped to curve in a direction to expand the closed passage.

Provided is an adapter and a method of making the same. The adapter includes threads to connect a fire hydrant to one end of a fire hydrant elbow having a different scale than the fire hydrant, the fire hydrant elbow being connected at a second end to an underground water pipe. The adapter also includes at least one stainless steel tube extending at a first end thereof from a corresponding at least one port hole formed through a lower end of an inner surface of the adapter and a second end thereof extending through a corresponding at least one port hole formed through an approximate middle portion of an outer surface of the adapter. The corresponding port holes through the inner surface of the adapter and the outer surface of the adapter being in vertical alignment.

An object of the present invention is to provide a technique in which deposition of powder during pneumatic transport can be inhibited by a pipe body having a simple structure. The present invention is a pipe for transporting powder including a transport path which has a portion formed by a curved pipe and through which pneumatically transported powder passes, and a blowing path through which a gas is blown into the transport path from an opening formed on an inner circumferential surface of the curved pipe, in which the blowing path blows the gas in a direction in which the gas blown into the transport path from the opening forms a swirling flow along the inner circumferential surface of the curved pipe.

A fitting for connecting a secondary plastic pipeline of a double pipe system containing two half-shells composed of plastic, wherein in each case each of the half-shells has an integrated heating wire, wherein the heating wire is arranged in each case in the regions of the connecting pieces and the heating wire has several meandering windings, wherein the heating wire is arranged in each case in a groove provided for this in the half-shell and the connecting elements which connect the two half-shells, characterized in that the fitting has distance elements arranged on the inner circumference of the half-shells for concentric arrangement of the fitting with respect to a primary pipeline.
