CONNECTING KIT FOR AN IRRIGATION HOSE
Described is a connecting kit for an irrigation hose comprising a hollow male body having, at a relative end, a connector equipped with an end head and a hollow female body, equipped with a second seat for said head and having a second longitudinal extension greater than a first longitudinal extension of the head.
Schraubelement, System
The invention relates to a screw element comprising an internal torque limitation for fastening a line, in particular a liquid-conducting line, to a counter-piece, in particular to a device connector or to a coupling for a further line, said screw element having a connection part, which preferably has a thread, and an actuation part; and having a torque limiting unit that limits a torque that can be transmitted from the actuation part to the connection part, wherein the torque limiting unit is arranged between the connection part and the actuation part and has a limiting element, in particular a separate limiting element, that can be assembled from at least two limiting element parts connectable to one another and that limits the torque limiting unit in an axial direction of a longitudinal axis of the screw element. The invention further relates to a system comprising at least one screw element and a line fastened to the screw element.
T-JOINT HAVING PUSH-BUTTON SWITCH
A T-joint includes a pipe body and a switch. The pipe body includes an inlet opening, a first outlet opening, a second outlet opening and a switch accommodating space communicating with each other. The switch is positioned into the switch accommodating space of the pipe body, and includes a pressed member and an outlet-selecting member. The pressed member and the outlet-selecting member are connected to each other. When a first pressed portion of the pressed member is pressed, an isolating member of the switch is positioned to isolate the inlet opening from the second outlet opening, but the first outlet opening communicates with the inlet opening, whereby a water flow merely outlets from the first outlet opening. When a second pressed portion of the pressed member is pressed, the isolating member of the switch is positioned to isolate the inlet opening from the first outlet opening, but the second outlet opening communicates with the inlet opening, whereby a water flow merely outlets from the second outlet opening.
Flexible tap tee fitting
A flexible tap tee fitting for attaching a plastic drain pipe to a corrugated plastic drain pipe main of single-wall or double-wall construction. The tap tee fitting has a plurality of elongated tabs, some long and some short, with a circumferential ridge on the ends. The ridge biases the tabs inwardly as the tap tee fitting is pushed through a hole in the main and locks on the inside of main. The long elongated tabs engage the wall of a single-wall main and the short elongated tabs engage the wall of a double-wall main.

ADJUSTABLE MULTI-PORT CONNECTOR AND VALVE
A multi-fitting rotatable fluid connection apparatus comprising a fluid entry fitting and first and second fluid discharge fittings. The fluid entry fitting comprises a first end connector threaded for attachment to a fluid source, and first and second distribution connectors. The first fluid discharge fitting has a first intake connector which receives fluid from the first distribution connector. A first rotation member is coupled between the first intake connector and the first distribution connector such that the first fluid discharge fitting is rotatable about a first axis of rotation. The second fluid discharge fitting has a second intake connector which receives fluid from the second distribution connector. A second rotation member is coupled between the second intake connector and the second distribution connector such that the second fluid discharge fitting is rotatable about a second axis of rotation.
PLASTIC TANK WITH A CONNECTION DEVICE
A plastic tank having a connection device for the plastic tank. The connection device includes a connection nipple, composed of a low-emission material, which is to be inserted into or attached to, from the outside, an opening of a tank wall of the plastic tank. A counter-piece is arranged to lay flat against the inside of the tank wall around the opening. The connection nipple is connected by screw connection or clip connection to the counter-piece. A seal is arranged around the opening between the outside of the tank wall and a sealing face of the connection nipple that faces the outside of the tank wall.
COMPOSITE CONNECTORS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A method of manufacturing a connector for a fluid transfer conduit comprises: manufacturing a tube which runs parallel to a central axis C from fibre-reinforced polymer, said tube comprising a hub portion 206 and a flange-forming portion 208 located adjacent to the hub portion 206, wherein the hub portion 206 comprises continuous circumferentially oriented fibre-reinforcement 210; and the hub portion 206 and the flange-forming portion 208 comprise longitudinally oriented fibre-reinforcement 212 which runs continuously from the hub portion 206 into the flange-forming portion 208; and bending the flange-forming portion 208 away from the central axis C such that it extends from the hub portion 206 at an angle to the central axis C.
Riser cap and irrigation piping system using same
A polymeric riser cap member includes a central tubular section defining a generally cylindrical bore for receiving a sprinkler riser, the central tubular section having open top and bottom ends, and an annular skirt coaxial with the central tubular section and having an inner diameter larger than an inner diameter of the central tubular section. The annular skirt has an inner surface having internal threads threadably connectable with the externally threaded surface of a tubular riser adapter member of a tubular coupler. The bottom end of the central tubular section has an annular projection disposed opposite and spaced from a portion of the annular skirt. The riser cap member includes an annular recess adapted to receive a seal located in a wall extending laterally between the annular skirt and the annular projection.
