Above ground water tank fill/drain system
A trench is dug under an above ground water storage tank either before erection of the walls or after the wall is erected. A (rectangular) sump is preferably made of ? inch steel. It serves as a conduit from an inner tank liner port to an outside tank fill or drain port. The system eliminates hoses hung over the top edge of the tank wall. A pump can fill the tank from the outer port. The tank can be drained using head pressure of the water and/or a pump.
Seal with skirt
A seal includes a barrel extending between a base and a top, in which the barrel has a cylindrical cavity passing through it between its base and its top, and a skirt indissociable from the barrel and extending around said barrel, in which the skirt adopts the shape of a dome of which the exterior edges extend out beyond the base starting from the top. The seal is able to divert the fluid and keep the space under the skirt fluid tight.
Cable/line insertion
A cable/line insertion is used to insert and thread at least one line into and through a wall opening into a housing wall. The insertion comprises an insertion sleeve for inserting into the wall opening, a pressing flange which projects substantially radially outwards from same, in places, and a clamping part which in particular can be screwed in the direction of the pressing flange onto the insertion sleeve, and a fastening section of the insertion sleeve, which is arranged opposite the clamping part. The fastening section comprises a contact surface which projects at least in places substantially radially outwards, which contact surface can be engaged from behind by a plug part for pressing the pressing flange to an opening edge of the wall opening.

Explosion-proof arrangement
The invention relates to an explosion-proof arrangement (10) with an explosion-proof housing (11) which has a wall opening (23) in a housing wall (12). The wall thickness (d) of the housing wall (12) is so small that it is not possible to form a thread there in order to screw in a connecting body (15) for a line to pass through or for receiving an assembly so as to ensure protection against flame transmission. According to the invention, a connecting body (25), which has a flange (38) with a flange face (39), is inserted into the wall opening (23). The flange face (39) delimits a flameproof gap (58) by way of the housing wall (12). The dimensions of a gap or intermediate space between the connecting body (25) and a boundary face (24) of the housing wall (12), which boundary face delimits the wall opening (23), are not important. The protection against flame transmission can be provided solely by the flameproof gap (58) between the flange face (39) and the housing wall (12).
Damper for an exhaust line of a semiconductor fabrication apparatus
A damper for an exhaust duct of an exhaust line of a semiconductor fabrication apparatus includes a damper body to be inserted into a fixing hole in the exhaust duct in a first direction, the damper body having a diameter substantially the same as a diameter of the fixing hole, and plural push buckles. The push buckles are provided on a distal end of the damper body along an outer circumferential surface of the damper body and spaced apart from each other around a circumference of the damper body, the push buckles being resilient and movable with respect to the outer circumferential surface along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. When the push buckles have passed through the fixing hole in the first direction, the push buckles prevent a return movement through the fixing hole in a direction opposite to the first direction.

FLUID SEALING DEVICE AND POWER CABLE LINE
A fluid sealing device for sealing an opening of an installation pipe in which at least a long object is installed includes: a flange configured to close the opening of the installation pipe, the flange having a hole through which the long object is made to pass, and the flange having a stop face that is continuous with and at an angle to an inner surface of the hole; one or more sealing members configured to be disposed on an outer periphery of the long object and configured to exert an urging force toward an axial center of the long object upon being compressed in an axial direction of the long object, thereby sealing a gap between the flange and the long object; and a clamping member configured to press the one or more sealing members toward the stop face.

APPLIANCE OUTLET BOX
An outlet box assembly includes an outlet box housing, configurable between a first and second orientation, and a funnel assembly. The outlet box housing includes a first wall portion and a second wall portion. The first wall portion includes a first socket portion, including a first knock out portion, and at least one through hole. The first knock out portion includes a first knock out body and an area of weakening. The through hole attaches a plumbing fitting to the first wall portion. The second wall portion includes a second socket portion including a second knock out portion including a second knock out body and an area of weakening. The funnel assembly has a fixed funnel portion and a funnel cover configured to be removably attached to the fixed funnel portion. The funnel assembly is configured to direct fluid to the first or second socket portion.
