A swivel assembly including a swivel bolt and housing is disclosed. The swivel bolt may include a first portion, a second portion, and a body portion connecting the first portion and second portion. The second portion may include a transverse channel. The housing may be configured to receive at least a portion of the second portion of the bolt and the housing may include an annular channel operatively aligned with the transverse channel of the swivel bolt. A swivel bolt may be formed as a single piece and/or may be formed using additive manufacturing technology. In embodiments, a swivel bolt may include a fluid passage having a bend with shaped or contoured inner and outer surfaces.

Apparatus for supplying a fluid to a device for tightening or loosening fasteners including a first fluid-transmitting element (130) having a first axis connectable with a housing of the device; a second fluid-transmitting element (140) rotatably connectable with the first element (130) about a second axis substantially perpendicular to the first axis; a third fluid-transmitting element (150) rotatably connectable with the second element (140) about a third axis substantially perpendicular to the second axis and connectable with a fluid-transmitting line; and first and second fluid conduits that transfer fluid to and from the device and the fluid-transmitting line through the first, second and third elements. The first element is rotatable 360° about the first axis; the second element is rotatable 360° about the second axis; and the third element is rotatable less than 360° about the third axis.

The disclosure relates to an adapter (200) for converting a naturally-aspirated flotation cell (10) to a forced-gas flotation cell without replacing the naturally-aspirated flotation cell reducer (21) with a specialized conversion reducer (103). The adapter (200) is designed to be located below the naturally-aspirated flotation cell reducer (21) and at a location along the drive shaft. The adapter (200) comprises an outer static casing (201) having a forced gas inlet (210); an inner rotating spanner (204) having at least one port (205) therein; sealing means (203, 224, 225, 226) provided between the static casing (201) and the spanner (204); and, a chamber (213) formed between the outer static casing (201) and the spanner (204). Related methods and apparatus incorporating the adapter (200) are further disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to a connector for medical devices. The connector may have two interfaces facing different planes. The two interfaces may provide access to the connector's core and hub. The hub may be free to rotate relative to the core to increase accessibility and/or angle attachment while maintaining a fluid pathway between the core and the hub.

A torque link assembly may comprise an upper torque link, a lower torque link, and a torque link pin. The upper torque link may define an upper hydraulic fluid channel. The lower torque link may define a lower hydraulic fluid channel. The torque link pin may fluidly couple the upper hydraulic fluid channel to the lower hydraulic fluid channel.

An anti-rotation banjo connection comprising a banjo plate attached to a pipe at its own first end edge and including an opening configured to receive a bolt, the bolt being configured to be screwed into a port of a hydraulic component, wherein a second end edge of the banjo plate, opposite to the first end edge, is provided with a positioning notch configured to partially surround a stopping fastener when the bolt is screwed into the port, whereby an edge wall delimiting the positioning notch is configured to interfere with the stopping fastener preventing the banjo plate from rotating about the bolt.

The present disclosure relates generally to an additive manufactured hydraulic swivel bolt used in tilt rotor functionality. The additively manufactured swivel bolt provides a unique geometry that reduces overall mass weight of over 40% compared to conventional manufactured swivel bolts while improving flow performance and reducing fluid leak paths.
