CONVEX MALE FITTING AND SYSTEMS
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a male connector for establishing a line-seal for transport of fluids between pipes. The male connector is structured to increase a seating pressure of the line-seal. The male connector comprises a male portion provided at one end of the male connector. The male portion typically comprises a conical sealing frustum provided at one end of the male connector, such that the conical sealing frustum comprises convex sides. Moreover, the male connector is structured to be operatively coupled to a predetermined female connector such that the conical sealing frustum forms a substantially line-seal with the predetermined female connector for transport of a process fluid therethrough.
Quick Connector Structure for a Pneumatic Valve
A quick connector structure for a pneumatic valve contains a body, at least one locking unit, and a control set. The body includes at least one inserting hole and an air intake, wherein an airtight washer is fixed between the at least one inserting hole. The body also includes at least one through orifice. The at least one locking unit includes at least one limiting block, each of which has a retaining segment with plural locking teeth and has a defining segment, and between each limiting block and the at least one through orifice is defined a closing ring to close an air flowing gap between each limiting block and the at least one through orifice. The control set is fitted with the body and alternatively presses the defining segment to control each limiting block to move into and to position in the at least one inserting hole.
Locking connector assembly
A connector having a male component and a female component. The male component includes a midsection with switch mechanism. The female component includes a bearing surface bearing against the midsection of the male component in a first position of the bearing surface of the female component, and spaced from the midsection of the male component in other positions of the female component.
Toolless disassembly rotational vacuum coupling
A hand disassembly rotational valve coupling for tool less manipulation by a user's hands and fingers using a coupling housing body defining an output seal aperture close to an output handle retention slot and slot lip, where the slot lip has a slot handle gap and an output seal retainer including a coupling handle ring with a first triangulated offset body retention ears and hand graspable handles separated by a ring handle gap for hand assembly and disassembly from the coupling housing body.
