Technologies are described for devices and methods to couple a hose to another hose or apparatus. The device may comprise a first side with at least two barbed fittings, each configured to insert into a flexible hose to create a waterproof seal. A diameter of each barbed fitting may increase in size from a first end of the first side to a second end of the first side. The device may comprise a second side with at least two male fittings, each configured to threadly interact with threads of a female fitting to create a waterproof seal. A diameter of each two male fitting may increase in size from a first end of the second side to a second end of the second side. The device may comprise a separator rim attached to the second end of the first side and to the second end of the second side.

A protective device (5, 5″, 5″, 5′″, 5″″) is provided for a hose clip (4) that connects a hose end (2) to a hose connection (3). The protective device includes a protective body (8, 8′, 8″, 8′″, 8″″) made of a plastic. In the assembled state, the protective body (8, 8′, 8″, 8′″, 8″″) surrounds the circumference of the hose clip (4) and accommodates the hose clip (4) at least in its clamping region via a radially oriented molding (32), and covers the hose clip (4) over the width thereof extending in the longitudinal direction of the hose connection (3). The protective body (8, 8′, 8″, 8′″, 8″″) has ring segments (9, 10) that can be connected to one another at their free ends (12, 13), and the segments are connected moveably to one another at their ends (14, 17) facing away from the free ends (12, 13).

A hydraulic fracturing system for fracturing a subterranean formation includes an electric powered pump having an inlet and an outlet, the outlet coupled to a well associated with the subterranean formation and powered by at least one electric motor. The system also includes a fluid source, coupled to the inlet of the electric powered pump, the fluid source providing a slurry for injection into the subterranean formation. The system further includes a hose extending between the fluid source and the electric powered pump, the hose being flexible and having a first diameter. The system includes a fitting between the hose and the electric powered pump, the fitting having a first end for receiving the hose at the first diameter and a second end for coupling to the electric powered pump at a second diameter, the second diameter being larger than the first diameter.

This document describes fluid coupling devices for fluid handling systems. For example, some embodiments described in this document relate to fluid coupling devices that snap together, and are then secured to each other using a collar and collet mechanism. Some fluid coupling devices described herein are well suited for use in systems that provide fluid cooling for heat generating devices such as computer hardware. The fluid coupling devices described herein are also suitable for many other uses.

This application provides a clamp and a method for using the same. The clamp includes a clamping band which is wound to form a clamp body defining an accommodating area. The clamp body is provided with a tightening lug. The clamp body includes an overlapping portion and a single layer portion which is provided with a positioning member. The positioning member is connected to the clamp body such that the positioning member is slidable toward an inner side of the accommodating area with one end extending into the accommodating area. An inner wall of the clamp body is gradually approaching an outer wall of a pipe with the tightening of the clamp, the positioning member moves outward relative to the clamp body until the inner wall of the clamp body rests against the outer wall of the pipe, and then the positioning member falls off from the clamp body.

Provided herein is a fluid duct (8) comprising a fluid duct connection end portion (12) for coupling to a component connection end portion (4) via a sealing ring (6), the fluid duct connection end portion comprising a clamping ring seat (14) configured for receiving an adjustable clamping ring therearound, the clamping ring seat (14) extending axially (A) between an entry flange (16) and a tube joining section (18), the tube joining section (18) extending into a fluid duct tube portion (10). The clamping ring seat (14) comprises an extension fold (20) configured to allow the clamping ring seat (14) to expand radially due to a widening of the expansion fold (20).

The disclosure relates to an attachment for a base jaw of a pressing tool for pressing fittings in order to produce pipe connections, comprising an attachment body, a pressing section, formed on the attachment body, to form half of a jaw opening, and comprising a connecting section, formed on the attachment body, for a connection to the base jaw. The technical problem of providing attachments for exchangeable jaws, base jaws and systems which allow an improved use for fittings of different nominal widths is solved in that the pressing section and the connecting section are arranged at a distance from one another. The invention also relates to a base jaw and to a system consisting of at least two pairs of attachments and one pair of base jaws.
