A joint seal system and method may include a seal and a band. The seal may be positioned between abutting flanges of two adjacent duct sections. A band may be positioned over the two flanges and the flange interface. The joint seal system and method may be configured to mitigate and/or eliminate leakage of pressure, flue gases, condensate, and/or any other fluid, gas, and/or vapor between abutting flanges of duct sections at a flange interface.

A pipeline telescopic joint configured to compensate for dimensional changes has: a first pipe section having a first diameter; a second pipe section having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter is slidingly coupled to the first pipe section; an end assembly, which is fixed to the second pipe section an annular seat bounded by two facing cylindrical faces; and an annular gasket, which is housed within the annular seat and has a polymeric casing and a spring housed within the polymeric casing, wherein the polymeric casing is in contact with the cylindrical faces.

A telescopic tube assembly having a fixing structure, including: a first tube having at a receiving end offset toward a predetermined direction to form an inward offset arc portion and an outward arc portion opposite to each other; a second tube having an inserting end, wherein an inner diameter of the first tube is greater than an outer diameter of the second tube; and a fastening structure disposed at the receiving end of the first tube, wherein the inserting end of the second tube is inserted into the first tube through the receiving end; by locking the fastening structure, the second tube is pushed against the inward offset arc portion and fixed with the first tube; by loosening the fastening structure, the second tube is released from the inward offset arc portion and is movable relative to the first tube.

A transfer tube assembly comprises a transfer tube slidably engaged in sealing engagement with a first component. The transfer tube has a shoulder engageable with a stopper for limiting relative axial movement between the transfer tube and the first component. The shoulder has an abutment surface facing a corresponding bore surface of the first bore of the first component. The abutment surface and the bore surface are configured to generate axially opposing reaction forces in response to the abutment surface and the bore surface contacting each other.

Provided is a linear movable rotary union including a driving shaft comprising a plurality of fluid supply paths; a hollow middle housing surrounding an outside of the driving shaft and comprising a plurality of first through holes in a sidewall; a plurality of first sealing members provided between the middle housing and the driving shaft to prevent leakage of a fluid; a hollow outer housing surrounding an outside of the middle housing and comprising a plurality of second through holes in a sidewall; and a plurality of second sealing members provided between the middle housing and the outer housing to prevent leakage of the fluid, and wherein the driving shaft is installed to be capable of rotational motion in the middle housing, and the middle housing is installed to be capable of reciprocating motion in an axial direction in the outer housing.

An arrangement including a transmission housing forming a lubricant sump and a pipeline including a first piece and a second piece. The first piece and the second piece of the pipeline respectively open into the lubricant sump. The first piece and the second piece of the pipeline are inserted into one another.

A fracturing system is provided. In one embodiment, the fracturing system includes a fracturing manifold for routing fracturing fluid to multiple wells. The fracturing manifold can be coupled via fluid conduits to fracturing trees installed at the wells. In some cases, each fracturing tree that is coupled to the fracturing manifold is coupled by at least one rigid fluid conduit. The fracturing manifold can include a trunk line that provides fracturing fluid to multiple outlet branches, which can include valves for controlling flow of fracturing fluid to wells downstream of the valves. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

An assembly of a male coupling part 200 and a stiff tube 100 is disclosed, the stiff tube 100 having an attachment means 110; and the male coupling part 200 requiring a relative axial displacement between the male coupling part 200 and the stiff tube 100 for connecting to a female coupling part 500, the male coupling part 200 comprising an axial through opening 210. The Assembly further comprises an element 300 detachably connected to the male coupling part 200 and slidably attached to the stiff tube 100, the element 300 having an opening 310 allowing relative axial displacement 340 between the male coupling part 200 and the stiff tube 100, and the attachment means 110 being movable within the opening 310. A method for coupling and un-coupling the assembly to a female coupling part is also disclosed.
