A ball drain wye strainer valve assembly includes a wye strainer located adjacent to a T-ball valve within a unitary body. The ball drain wye strainer valve assembly includes an additional valve member. The combination of the valve members permits the flushing of the wye strainer screen from either upstream or downstream. A drain is also incorporated to allow for the system draining, flushing, or air-purging during the initial installation and subsequent maintenance of the screen and wye strainer.

The plumbing fixture of the present invention allows a user to quickly and easily attach an accessory, such as a water hose, to a water source in order to transport water to a location that is without water. More specifically, the plumbing fixture provides quick and easy access to a water supply for purposes of, for example, extinguishing a fire. The plumbing fixture also provides a means for a user to perform various activities whereby access to water would be beneficial, such as cleaning floors, bathing pets, people, or watering plants.

A tubing and junction assembly and method of making the same are disclosed. The assembly includes a shell having a bore extending from a first opening to a second opening, and a third opening extending from an exterior surface of the shell to a first end portion of the bore. A tubing is seated within the bore. A bonding agent is disposed between the tubing and the shell. The method of making the tubing and junction assembly includes forming or providing a shell, inserting an end of the tubing through the first opening into the shell, inserting a bonding agent through the third opening of the shell into a gap between the tubing and the shell, and curing the bonding agent to join the tubing to the shell.

A modular fluid end for a multiplex plunger pump, each module machined from a single-piece steel forging with a plunger bore intersected by a linear suction/discharge bore and pumped fluid is discharged straight out through a top of the module into a discharge manifold made up using 1502 frac iron components. A compression clamp applies a crush load to opposed sides of the modules to extend service life.

A fitting for joining pipe elements together includes housing portions held preassembled in spaced apart relation to permit pipe elements to be inserted without disassembly of the fitting. Elbow and tee fittings include sealing elements which support the housing portions in spaced relation. Angled surfaces on each housing portion interact with one another to rotate the housing portions in opposite directions to form a rigid joint between the fitting and the pipe elements.

An example shut-off device includes a valve body to surround a section of a pipe and form a chamber about the section of the pipe. The example shut-off device also includes a first flange bearing on a first side of the chamber. The first flange bearing in a closed position forming a first seal between the pipe and the chamber. The example shut-off device also includes a second flange bearing on a second side of the chamber. the second flange bearing in a closed position forming a second seal between the pipe and the chamber. The example shut-off device also includes a cutting blade in the chamber. The cutting blade tightens against the pipe to cut through the pipe and at least partially seals an opening in the cut pipe. The cutting blade is configured to operate as a gate valve.

A magnetic quick connect for a fluid delivery system includes a male coupling member and a female coupling member. The male coupling member defines a first outer fluid communication path and includes a first magnetic material. A first inner member is disposed within the first outer fluid communication path and defines a first inner communication path. The female coupling member defines a second outer fluid communication path and includes a second magnetic material. A second inner member is disposed within the second outer fluid communication path and defines a second inner communication path. The male and female coupling members are detachably held together by an attractive force between the first and second magnetic materials such that the first and second outer communication paths are held in fluid communication, and the first and second inner communication paths are held in fluid communication.

An unload tee has a tee body with a front side and a rear side. The unload tee further includes a door rotatably connected to front side of the tee body; a catch pin mounted on and projecting from the door; a latch assembly connected to the door, and wherein the latch assembly is positioned towards the front side of the unload tee, and further wherein the latch assembly comprises a latch tab having an ear; and a catch defined as a curve in the ear of the latch tab, wherein the catch is configured to engage the catch pin when the door is in a closed position.

A protection structure of a sampling tube of a tank truck is provided. A positioning and protecting base is provided around an outer circumference of the sampling tube. The sampling tube includes a sampling output port for connection with a sampling output hose. The positioning and protecting base includes a through hole. The sampling output port extends through the through hole to partly project outside of the positioning and protecting base. With such an arrangement, the stiffness and strength of the entire sampling output port are enhanced for resisting impact and hit, and readiness of connection between the sampling output port and a sampling output hose is not negatively affected to thereby improve usage performance of the sampling tube.

A branch pipe tee for a rail car having a length that is below standard. The branch pipe tee has a standard mount for connecting to the brake pipe and branch pipe as well as integral volume that compensates for the reduced brake pipe length of the rail car. The integral volume is dimensioned to make the effective brake pipe length of rail car fall within standard ranges so that the braking system of the rail car can perform normally and avoid the need for additional equipment to compensate for the length of the rail car.
