20230127426 · 2023-04-27 ·

A connecting device for a sealed exchange of fluid between two components is disclosed. The connecting devices comprises a pipe portion with at least two pipe portion ends, wherein an extent of the pipe portion between the pipe portion ends determines a streamline of the fluid, and comprises a sealing element which at least partially surrounds the pipe portion. At least one of the pipe portion ends is configured to form an inflow and/or outflow region that extends over the clear dimension of the at least one pipe portion end.

Apparatus and methods to prevent particle entry into gas lines

Connector assemblies for holding two tubes together and methods of use are described. The connector assemblies have an inner bolt, a split outer bolt comprising at least two outer bolt sections and a clamp bolt. The clamp bolt holds the outer bolt sections together to form the split outer bolt and the inner bolt is screwed into the outer bolt to enclose the two tube ends.

Metal to metal vee seal

A system to provide at least two circumferential metal to metal seals between coaxial tubulars. Where a first tubular includes a circumferential shoulder having a circumferential first metal seal and a circumferential second metal seal. A second tubular has a circumferential shoulder that matches and abuts the first tubular circumferential shoulder. Each metal seal is of a material having a higher yield strength than the second tubular shoulder such that the first metal seal and the second metal seal will penetrate the material of the second tubular shoulder thereby providing a seal. Additionally a test port is provided from the exterior of the exterior tubular to a point on either the first or second tubular between the first and second metal seals.
