Aspects of the disclosure relate to fluid injection systems, apparatus, methods, and associated components thereof that include flexible hoses for wellhead sites. In one implementation, a fluid injection system for wellhead sites includes a pump, a pump manifold, and a flexible hose coupled between the pump and the pump manifold. The flexible hose includes a first end coupled to the pump and a second end coupled to the pump manifold. The first end of the flexible hose includes a first end fitting coupled to the pump, and the first end fitting is oriented at an angle relative to a horizontal plane. The second end of the flexible hose includes a second end fitting coupled to the pump manifold, and the second end fitting is oriented vertically and perpendicularly to the horizontal plane.

A liquid loading device including a vertical lattice support structure, a platform coupled to the vertical lattice support structure, and a riser pipe located within the vertical lattice support structure and coupled to the vertical lattice support structure to substantially remain rotation free relative to the vertical lattice support structure. The device further includes a first rotatable joint located on a distal end of the riser pipe in which the first rotatable joint is operable to rotate relative to the riser pipe. The device further includes an arm extending from the platform and operable to be rotated relative to the platform. The device can also include a second rotatable joint coupled to the first rotatable joint through one or more rigid members, in which the second rotatable joint is operable to rotate relative to the platform. The device can further include an extension pipe extending from the second rotatable joint to a distal end of the arm.

A device for transferring fluid between two separate structures includes a rigid pipe with a double shell extending along a longitudinal axis. The pipe includes an outer-shell housing (in the inner vacuum space thereof), at least one inner duct for fluid transfer, and at first and second ends thereof, includes respective first and second rigid connections of the outer shell to the first structure and second structures, respectively. The first and second ends of the outer shell are rigidly connected to the at least one inner duct. The pipe comprises a system to compensate for movements in the longitudinal direction.

A foldable drain pipe for draining effluent from a decanter in a settling tank in a water treatment system, comprising a plurality of pipe sections sealingly connected together end to end by pivotable elbow coupling pairs to form an articulated drain foldable in a vertical direction. The drain pipe is attachable at an upper end to the decanter and at a lower end to a tank outlet in the tank wall. The drain pipe can support its own weight and cannot come into contact undesirably with any other portion of the tank wall. The pipe unfolds upward as needed when the decanter and effluent level are high, and folds compactly between the decanter and the tank outlet when the decanter and effluent level are low. Multiple hobble apparatus options may be selected as defined herein to prevent rotational hyperextension of any of the elbow coupling pairs to assure that the pipe folds correctly.

A coupling includes a body with two ends and a bore. Each end section includes a rotatable connection and a convolution, and there is a bent elbow section between the end sections.

A fire extinguishing system of an aircraft including: a fire extinguishing nozzle that is provided on an installation member forming a compartment of the aircraft; and a fire extinguishing pipe that is provided on a support structure supporting the installation member from a back side, and supplies a fire extinguishing agent to the fire extinguishing nozzle, wherein the fire extinguishing pipe includes a first pipe that is supported by a first support member constituting the support structure, a second pipe that is supported by a second support member constituting the support structure and crossing the first support member, and a tube having flexibility that connects the first pipe and the second pipe.

Air pipe for the intake tract of an internal combustion engine, for example a turbo engine, including a first pipe component composed of a first material and a second pipe component composed of a second material, the first material being more flexible than the second material.

A universal device for replacing worn or lacerated parts of connecting conduits between components of climate control or cooling or hydraulic systems for the connection between components of new climate control or cooling or hydraulic systems, comprising a metal sleeve provided at an end of a coupling for pipes joined to it in a sealed fashion, designed to be fitted and clamped on a stretch of rigid pipe joined to a connector for connection of the connecting conduit to a component, and at the other end of a fitting for connection with a flexible hose designed to replace the worn or lacerated connecting conduit. The sleeve can be rectilinear or curved with angle of approximately 45 or approximately 90. The previous device is prepared in a kit according to different sizes.

A compensator, having a first corrugated bellows section, a second corrugated bellows section, an intermediate pipe section positioned between the first corrugated bellows section and the second corrugated bellows section, a first attachment flange, and a second attachment flange. The first corrugated bellows section engages the first attachment flange and intermediate pipe section. The second corrugated bellows section engages the second attachment flange and intermediate pipe section. An intermediate flange is positioned between the first attachment flange and the second attachment flange and surrounds the intermediate pipe section at the outside without a a rigid connection to the intermediate pipe section. The intermediate flange is connected by first tension rods to the first attachment flange and by second tension rods to the second attachment flange.
