A fluid connector comprising a body having a through-bore, a plurality of radially inwardly facing surfaces comprising a first cylindrical surface having a first diameter, a frusto-conical surface adjacent the first cylindrical surface, and a second cylindrical surface adjacent the frusto-conical surface, the second cylindrical surface having a second diameter, wherein the frusto-conical surface is arranged between the first and second cylindrical surfaces, and a plurality of outwardly facing surfaces comprising a first cylindrical surface having a first diameter, and a second cylindrical surface adjacent the first cylindrical surface, the second cylindrical surface having a second diameter, and a deformable tab integrally connected to the body and extending axially from the body.

The invention refers to a joint for hydraulic connection, including: an upstream body; a downstream body; and a joining device with screw, extended along a hinging axis, which crosses in succession the upstream body and the downstream body rotatably coupling them with respect to said hinging axis; being further provided an adhesive interposed between thread and counter-thread of the joining device.

A swivel assembly is provided with a first pipe section having a first end fitting having an inner surface and an outer surface, at least a portion of the first end fitting is formed of a corrosion-resistant material. The swivel assembly further includes a second pipe section having a second end fitting having an inner surface and an outer surface, at least a portion of the second pipe section formed of a corrosion-resistant material. The swivel assembly further includes a swivel joint, the swivel joint rotatably securing the first and second end fittings together along a central axis, the swivel joint formed of a material having a greater hardness than the material, from which at least a portion of the second pipe section is formed.

Described are systems and methods for a hydraulic swivel. The hydraulic swivel receives fluid flow in one direction and, in certain configurations, changes the direction of the fluid flow to a second direction before the fluid leaves the hydraulic swivel. The hydraulic swivel includes a first banjo, a second banjo, and a base. The banjos of the hydraulic swivel are configured to be repositioned.

A fluid swivel includes at least two separate fluid paths extending therethrough, configured to convey fluid across a hinge. The fluid swivel includes a first end configured to be coupled to a first pair of lines on a first side of the hinge, a second end configured to be coupled to a second pair of lines on a second side of the hinge, a joint between the first end and the second end, a first pair of tubes extending from the first end to the joint, and a second pair of tubes extending from the joint to the second end, wherein the first and second tubes lie in a plane that is generally perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the joint.

A fluidic connector intended to enable the circulation of a fluid and includes two parts configured to be coupled, each of the parts comprising a channel, the two channels communicating when the two parts are coupled, the fluid being intended to be conveyed by the two channels, and a locking mechanism configured to bear on a first of the two parts and to exert a force on a second of the two parts in order to hold the two parts in position when the two parts are coupled, the locking mechanism passing through an opening in the first of the two parts.

In various implementations, a hydraulic fracturing piping system may include one or more rotatable elbows to connect other components of the hydraulic fracturing piping system. Using rotatable elbows may facilitate connections in the hydraulic fracturing piping system. For example, when using a rotatable elbow, in the assembly of the system, the rotatable elbow may be capable of rotating to different positions to facilitate alignment of the hydraulic fracturing manifold and hydraulic fracturing stack (e.g., christmas tree), when the hydraulic fracturing manifold and the hydraulic fracturing stack are not in alignment. In some implementations, the elbow may include an internal radial transition (e.g., of approximately 90 degrees) to control the media being injected into the wellbore. The internal radial transition of the elbow may create a more uniform media flow and/or less turbulence, which may significantly reduce erosion of the inner surfaces the bore of the elbow.

A bearing rotary swivel joint preferably includes a swivel housing, a rotary swivel, an end plate, a solid bearing, a plurality of wear rings, a spring clip and a swivel seal. The swivel housing includes a threaded tube inlet and a swivel receiver bore. The rotary swivel includes a through bore, a threaded swivel inlet, a bearing diameter and an outer diameter. An O-ring groove is formed in the rotary swivel to receive the O-ring. The solid bearing is retained on the bearing diameter, terminated on each end with wear rings and axially retained with a spring clip against a bearing shoulder of the rotary swivel. The swivel seal is retained on the bearing diameter. The rotary swivel is inserted through a center bore in an end plate. The end plate is preferably fastened to the swivel housing with a plurality of fasteners.
