Flowline components are assembled into high-pressure fluid transportation systems by a flange union. The flowline component comprises a body defining a substantially cylindrical central conduit. The conduit extends between first and second flat union faces and is adapted to conduct fluids through the body. The union faces are adapted to provide a mating surface for a flange union between the component and another flowline component. Accordingly, the union faces have a plurality of holes adapted to accommodate threaded connectors for forming the flange union. The holes are arranged in a defined array extending angularly around the conduit. Importantly, the array of holes on the first union face and the array of holes on the second union face are offset angularly relative to each other by an angle . It will be appreciated that such components may allow changes in the direction of a flow line.

A pipe junction includes a corrugated pipe including a pipe wall having an inner pipe wall and an outer pipe wall, the outer pipe wall having a plurality of peaks and a plurality of valleys disposed between the plurality of peaks, and an opening through the pipe wall. The corrugated pipe junction includes a hub and sleeve assembly received within the opening of the pipe wall, the hub and sleeve assembly including a hub received within the sleeve. When the hub and sleeve assembly is received within the opening of the pipe wall, a compressive seal is formed between the hub and sleeve assembly and the inner pipe wall such that the hub and sleeve assembly is sealingly engaged with the inner pipe wall around an entire circumference of the hub and sleeve assembly.

A high efficiency take-off fitting allows conditioned air from a rectangular cross-section main duct to be smoothly transferred into a circular cross-section branch duct.

The invention relates to a force generator for generating a linear pressure force, including a housing, an output wedge displaceably arranged in the housing, and a drive wedge for transmitting an externally exerted pressing force into a linear movement of the output wedge. The output wedge is connected to a first pressure element. The housing is connected to a second pressure element. A force applied to the drive wedge causes displacement of the first pressure element relative to the second pressure element. The force generator solves the technical problem of providing a high pressure force and using the known press jaws for this purpose.

A screw hole of an upstream side joining block is formed only on an upstream side of a flow path port thereof in a longitudinal direction, a screw hole of a downstream side joining block is formed only on a downstream side of a flow path port thereof in the longitudinal direction and, between a guide part and an engaging part, an alignment mechanism aligns the positions of the upstream side and the downstream side joining blocks in a horizontal direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the guide part to a center position of the guide part by using a portion of a reaction force that resists a bending force produced by the tightening force of a tightening bolt on a body and the upstream side and the downstream side joining blocks connected to each other.

A connector includes a flow path extending in an axial direction along a central axis, a body including a through hole extending in the axial direction, a pipe including a through hole extending in the axial direction, and a seal including a sealing material between the body and the pipe. The body includes a body-side opposing surface opposing the pipe. The pipe includes a pipe-side opposing surface opposing the body. The seal is between the body-side opposing surface and the pipe-side opposing surface. The seal includes a reservoir in which the sealing material collects between the body-side opposing surface and the pipe-side opposing surface.

The invention relates to a connection device for connecting a main pipe (1) to a secondary pipe (2), comprising a substantially cylindrical connection piece (3), able to be inserted, preferably able to be screwed, into a wall opening of the main pipe (1), for connection of the secondary pipe (2), wherein for sealing the connection piece (3) a preferably ring-shaped sealing element (4) is provided, lying against the main pipe (1), which sealing element is connected directly or via mechanical connecting elements to an outer circumference of the connection piece (3).

A nipple assembly includes nipple bodies configured so that one end portion of each of the nipple bodies is inserted into a housing so as to be coupled to a cooling medium inlet or a cooling medium outlet of a heat exchanger and a remaining end portion of each of the nipple bodies protrudes outwards from the housing, at least one first sealing unit sealing a gap between the one end portion of each of the nipple bodies and the cooling medium inlet or the cooling medium outlet, a flange portion formed at a position between two end portions of each of the nipple bodies to be coupled to the housing, and a second sealing unit including a first sealing portion sealing a gap between the flange portion and the housing and a second sealing portion configured to extend from the first sealing portion.

Provided is a snap tap mounting jig for mounting a snap tap where the generation of buckling can be prevented by reducing a diameter enlarging pressing force of a diameter enlarging roller, a shim can be mounted on both end surfaces of the diameter enlarging roller, and a fold-back deformation amount of a metal sleeve can be checked from the outside. The snap tap mounting jig is also characterized as follows. The diameter enlarging roller is formed into a Japanese-hand-drum shape, and the recessed portion is formed such that a substantially upper half portion of the diameter enlarging roller mounted obliquely is formed into a substantially tapered shape, and a substantially lower half portion of the diameter enlarging roller mounted obliquely is formed into a rounded shape. An inclination angle of the diameter enlarging roller mounted obliquely falls within a range of from 65 degrees to 77 degrees, and a recessed groove portion is formed on an upper end surface and a lower end surface of the diameter enlarging roller, and a shim is fitted into the recessed groove portion.

Missile flow lines are incorporated into frac manifolds, especially trailered or skidded frac manifolds. The missiles manifold the discharge from a plurality of pumps and comprise at least two junction fittings joined by spooled pipe. The junction fittings comprise a body having a primary bore and at least two feed bores. The intersections of the feed bores with the primary bore are offset axially from each other along the primary bore. The junction fittings are joined by flange unions to at least one spooled pipe such a that the junction fittings and spooled pipe form a conduit including the primary bores. A discharge line from a pump may be joined to each feed union face of the junction fittings by a flange union. Thus, the discharge from the pumps may be manifolded into the conduit.
