The distributor is disposed in the housing together with end sections of the connected individual lines. A channel line inner diameter of the inner channels and a total length of the inner channels and a wall thickness of the distributor in the connecting component are dimensioned such that ice pressure on the distributor, which occurs as a result of the freezing of a liquid within the distributor, does not result in any destruction.

QUICK CONNECT RELEASE SYSTEM FOR A FLUID COUPLING

A quick connect and disconnect system for a fluid coupling includes an axially extending fitting configured to be secured to a fluid conduit, a clip, and a quick connect and disconnect adaptor. The clip is coupled to the fitting and includes a base, a wing extending from the base, and a first lug extending from the first wing. The quick connect and disconnect adaptor includes a first release tab configured to resiliently deflect through an aperture of the adaptor. The adaptor is configured to transfer a compressive force to resiliently deflect the first lug to move the clip in an axial direction from an installed position to an uninstalled position.

System and Method for a Simplified High Pressure Monobore Multiport Pod Missile

A modular multiport pod missile includes a plurality of pipe sections securable together to form a conduit for transporting a fluid in a generally horizonal direction of travel, and at least one pod secured between two of the pipe sections forming the conduit. Each pod has a plurality of input ports extending radially outwardly at an angle from a perimeter of the pod. Each of the input ports is configured for connection to a high-pressure line for delivering a high-pressure fluid from a pump to the conduit. The input ports are angled such that, when connected to a high-pressure line, high-pressure fluid flowing through the input ports merges with the fluid in the conduit generally in the same direction of travel as the fluid in the conduit.

The connector portions are continuously formed with the tube and the center of the connector and the connector portions are fluidly connected together.

Fixture for piping

A fixture for piping includes a fitting. The fitting includes a base, and a locking tab. The locking tab has an end fixed onto the base, and one or more folding sections. The locking tab is formed as a folding configuration folded twice or more, and is further formed so as to be inclinable by elastic deformation about the end and the one or more folding sections serving as a fulcrum, respectively, thereby being locked up with a hole in a vehicle body.

QUICK CONNECT RELEASE SYSTEM FOR A FLUID COUPLING

A quick connect and quick disconnect adaptor for a fluid coupling system is provided. The adaptor includes a first half having a center point, and a sidewall at least partially defining a plurality of bores. Each of the bores contains an aperture, and each of the bores terminates at the center point. The first half further includes a plurality of release tabs. Each release tab is configured to resiliently deflect through an aperture, and each release tab terminates at the center point. The adaptor further includes a second half, which is at least partially symmetric to the first half.

WYE FITTING ATTACHMENT
20230175626 · 2023-06-08 ·

An assembly for connecting a wye fitting to another fluid conduit part of a fluid system includes the wye fitting, the other fluid conduit part and a clamshell fastener. The wye fitting defines a main fluid flow path along an axis A between a first end and a second end. An end of the wye fitting to be connected to the another fluid conduit part is provided with a plurality of first engagement features arranged circumferentially around the end of the wye fitting and an end of the another fluid conduit part is provided with a corresponding plurality of second engagement features arranged circumferentially around the end of the another fluid conduit part configured to engage with the first engagement features. The clamshell is secured around the end of the wye fitting and the another fluid conduit part over the interface between the first and second engagement features.

Method of joining pipes and apparatus for facilitating the same
09791085 · 2017-10-17 ·

An apparatus and method for joining pipes includes a plate for melting mating surfaces of the pipes to be joined. Additionally, the apparatus utilizes a vacuum in order to push the first and second pipes together in lieu of hand or mechanical pressure which may be inconsistent. Additionally, the vacuum allows the pipes to be joined to settle on each other in order to create a pressure about a periphery of the end of the pipe being joined to the other pipe. The consistent pressure creates a very strong joint between the first and second pipes.

METHOD OF MANUFACTURING BIFURCATED PIPE AND BIFURCATED CONNECTOR FOR CONNECTING HOSES AND FUEL SUPPLY HOSE MANUFACTURED USING THE SAME
20170274444 · 2017-09-28 ·

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a bifurcated pipe and a bifurcated connector for connecting hoses and a fuel supply hose manufactured using the same, in which connection between a torch and an oxygen tank or a gas tank is facilitated and hoses are prevented from becoming twisted or entangled during a welding or cutting process.

Further, according to the present invention, a single connection hose is prevented from being damaged by sparks, a piece of steel cut off the workpiece, a discarded welding rod, or a sharp cut surface or edge of the workpiece, and a worker is capable of easily recognizing gas leakage and a portion from which gas is leaking, thereby preventing an accident.
