VACUUM HOSE CONNECTION SYSTEM

A vacuum tool connection assembly for connection to a commercial vehicle vacuum system that includes: a vacuum tool connection assembly hose having a first end and a second end; an upper assembly and a lower assembly having a tool connector where the tool connector engages a second end of the lower assembly swivel cuff and is typically adapted to receive one or a plurality of different types of vacuum tools. The vacuum tool engagement assembly is typically free of any flapper valve, metal or spring biased elements.

Low-emission nozzle and receptacle coupling for cryogenic fluid

A low-emission nozzle and receptacle coupling for cryogenic fluid is disclosed. A nozzle includes a body, a shaft, a poppet eat, and a poppet. The body includes an outer shell, body segment(s), and interior walls sealingly coupled together. At least one of the interior walls is coupled to the outer shell. The interior walls extend longitudinally back-and-forth in a zig-zag pattern to define an elongated conduction path between the chamber and an exterior of the nozzle to impede a heat leak between the chamber and the exterior. The shaft is housed within and slidably extends through the chamber. The poppet is coupled to the shaft and is configured to engage a receptacle poppet when the receptacle is coupled to the nozzle. The poppet is configured to engage the poppet seat in a closed position and be disengaged from the poppet seat in an open position.
