CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
20210172549 · 2021-06-10 ·

A connector assembly (608) for a length of corrugated tubing (601) having an inner corrugated element (602) and an outer flexible sheath layer (603). The connector assembly (608) comprises a fitting (609) including a fluid-flow passage and an abutment surface (612) for the corrugated tubing (601) to seat thereon; axial loading means operably connectable to the fitting (609), the axial loading means including a connector (613) and a collet (610), the collet (610) having a radially inward protruding clamping element (611) for insertion into a trough (606) of the inner corrugated element (602), and a sheath-contact portion (625) for engaging the outer sheath layer (603), so that, when the connector (613) moves the collet (610) into engagement with the fitting (609), the collet (610) causes the corrugated element (602) to move onto the abutment surface (612) whilst maintaining engagement with the outer sheath layer (603). The sheath-contact portion (625) is axially positionable between the inner corrugated element (602) and the outer sheath layer (603) of the corrugated tubing (601), in use.

Tool and method for installing a seal by allowing a precompression to join two tubular parts

When coupling tubular parts by fitting, the seal interposed between them may roll on itself, be pinched or damaged. Now, a twisted or damaged seal no longer correctly ensures the seal-tightness and it is very difficult to detect this. The present application discloses a tool for installing a seal between two tubular parts, one male and one female, including a compression ring to encircle the male part and exert a compression on the seal before producing the join. The tool also includes a tongue that can be positioned at a chamfered surface of the female tubular part. The tongue makes it possible to offer the pre-compressed seal with the dimensions of the female part a continuous travel making it possible to prevent any twisting or other effect compromising the seal-tightness.

Biocompatible tubing for liquid chromatography systems

QUICK CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY AND DEVICE
20210062950 · 2021-03-04 ·

A quick connector assembly and a quick connector device are disclosed. The quick connector assembly includes a first base, a first fluid interface assembly and a valve assembly. The valve assembly regulates whether a fluid flows through the quick connector assembly or not, and thereby sealing the flow of the fluid at both sides of the quick connector assembly. The quick connector assembly and the quick connector device in an embodiment of the present disclosure can regulate the flow of the fluid effectively and provide better barriers to keep concurrent flows separated and isolated. Especially, the quick connector device can be used in slurry delivery system which has fluid being abrasive fluid or solid contained liquid.
