A gardening fluid connection device contains a body including multiple retainers, a resilient element, and a fitting sleeve including multiple spaced engagement teeth. The resilient element abuts against the body and the fitting sleeve. The body includes a stop rib, and the multiple spaced engagement teeth are pushed by the resilient element to abut against the stop rib. The body includes at least one retaining element, each retaining element is located on a first side of each spaced engagement tooth, and a width of each spaced engagement tooth is equal to a rotation distance of the fitting sleeve, hence the fitting sleeve is rotated reciprocatingly to open or close of the gardening fluid coupling device by using the stop rib, each retaining element, each spaced engagement tooth and the resilient element, and each retaining element is stopped when moving to a second side of each spaced engagement tooth.

An adapter for an expandable hose is an apparatus used to connect an expandable hose to other fluid management tools. The apparatus is also configured to prevent leakages in multi-channel expandable hoses. An objective of the apparatus is to provide a connection for expandable hoses. The apparatus is designed to prevent leakage between expandable hoses and the apparatus. A threaded connector enables attachment of the expandable hose to other hoses. Another unit fits inside the inner channel of an expandable hose, while a third part surrounds the inner channel of the expandable hose. An annular fastener secures the outer channel of the expandable hose to the inner channel. A cover or housing may be added to protect components from damage due to external stimuli. Altogether, the apparatus enables a user to securely attach an expandable hose to a spout, faucet, spicket, another hose, or a variety of other devices.

A pipe fitting includes a socket that receives an end of a pipe section therein such that a gap exists between an outer surface of the pipe section and an inner surface of the socket. A pair of ports extend through the socket and are in fluid communication with the gap. A clamp secures the pipe section within the socket as a bonding agent is extruded into the gap via a port. The clamp includes a pair of arcuate segments, each having an inner circumferential wall, first and second end portions, and an elongated sealing member. Each arcuate segment includes a plurality of spring-loaded devices, each having a distal end portion extending through the inner circumferential wall that is urged into contact with the pipe section outer surface.

A connector having a male component and a female component. The male component has a first tubular section, a second tubular section, and a midsection between the first tubular section and the second tubular section. The female component is connected to the second tubular section of the male component upon relative rotational movement between the male component and the female component and disconnected from the second tubular section of the male component upon relative rotational movement between the male component and the female component in a direction opposite to the direction when the male component and the female component are being connected. The female component has a bearing surface bearing against the midsection of the male component in a first position of the bearing surface and is spaced from the midsection of the male component in other positions of the female component.

Fluid coupling (10), comprising: a first member (20) configured for connection with a first fluid conduit (16); a second member (30) configured for connection with a second fluid conduit (18); a nut (50) disposed at least partially around the first member (20), the nut (50) configured to engage the second member (30); and a sleeve (60) configured to rotate the nut (50) and cause or facilitate engagement between the nut (50) and the second member (30).

A connector assembly includes a first connector, a compression member, a retainer, and a second connector. The first connector includes a first coupling portion, a proximal opening, and an annular inner surface extending from the proximal opening. The compression member includes an inner surface and an outer surface. The outer surface is configured to sealingly engage the annular inner surface of the first connector. The retainer includes a ring portion and a plurality of teeth. The ring portion includes a proximal end and a distal end. Each of the plurality of teeth extends from the distal end and is configured to engage the compression member. The second connector includes a second coupling portion and an engagement surface. The second coupling portion is configured to engage the first coupling portion. The engagement surface is configured to engage the proximal end of the retainer.

An adapter for connecting a separated-outlet fluid cartridge to a single-inlet static mixer includes a locking portion and a connecting portion. The locking portion has at least one locking element to lockingly engage the mixer housing so as to inhibit rotation between the locking portion and the housing. The connecting portion is received within the locking portion and has first and second fluid inlet members to be coupled to respective first and second fluid outlets of the cartridge for receiving fluid from the cartridge, and a fluid outlet member is sealingly coupled to the mixer for directing fluid into the mixer. The locking portion is selectively rotatable about the connecting portion between unlocked and locked positions relative to the cartridge when the connecting portion is coupled to the cartridge. Consequently, the adapter advantageously enables dispensing with a separated-outlet fluid cartridge in combination with a single-inlet static mixer.

An embodiment of the present subject matter includes: a plurality of sockets connected to a plurality of hoses through which hot water is supplied and returned, and formed in a detachable structure; and clips provided outside the plurality of sockets with a clearance to support the plurality of sockets so as to have a degree of freedom.
