11098806 · 2021-08-24 ·

A particulate stream splitting and diverting assembly for splitting a stream of grain includes a pipe, which comprises a first section and a pair of second sections. Each second section extends transversely from a bottom of the first section so that the pipe is Y-shaped. A diverter is positioned in the pipe proximate to a junction of the first section and the pair of second sections. The diverter is configured to selectively split a stream of particulates into a pair of substreams of particulates as the stream passes from the first section to the pair of second sections.

Adapter for connecting fluid lines and fluid line system formed therewith

An adapter includes several connecting nozzles. Free nozzle ends of the connecting nozzles are adapted to be connected to line ends of fluid lines. The adapter includes, for guiding flowing fluid in and then out, two mutually separated, tubular flow channels. Moreover, the adapter includes a projection, which extends from the nozzle end with a length to a free projection end remote therefrom. A fluid line system formed by means of the adapter comprises, furthermore, a fluid line with, enveloped by a wall, a lumen. The fluid line can be connected with its line end to the connecting nozzle of the adapter in such a manner that the projection protrudes inwardly into the lumen of the fluid line to form two tubular chambers of the fluid line mutually separated by the projection and adapted for guiding through flowing fluid.

CONNECTION ASSEMBLY, IN PARTICULAR FOR CONDUCTING AQUEOUS UREA SOLUTIONS
20210140576 · 2021-05-13 ·

A connector arrangement for conducting liquid urea solutions. The connector arrangement includes a distributor, with at least three connecting elements, and a connecting component, located between the connecting elements, with inner channels running within the connecting component. Three individual lines having connecting means are connected to the connecting elements of the distributor by the connecting means, and a housing surrounds the distributor and at least a part of the individual line. 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.

Frac manifold missile and fitting

A missile flow line is assembled in a frac manifold to manifold the discharge from a plurality of pumps. The missile comprises at least two junction fittings joined by a flange union to at least one spooled pipe to form a conduit. The junction fittings comprise a fitting body having a primary bore and at least two feed bores. The primary bore extends axially through the body between primary union faces adapted for connection to a flowline component by a flange union. The feed bores extend radially through the body from a feed union face to an intersection with the primary bore. The feed union faces are adapted for connection to pump discharge lines by a flange union. The intersections of the feed bores with the primary bore are offset axially from each other along the primary bore.
