EASY TO MANOEUVRE FLUIDIC CONNECTOR
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.
SWIVEL JOINT WITH ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY GREASE FITTING
A swivel joint includes a tail section and a body portion that define a passageway therethrough and which can rotate relative to one another. One or more seals and bearings can be disposed between the tail section and the body portion. An electrical conductivity grease fitting can be mounted within a bore hole in the body portion. The electrical conductivity grease fitting can have a lubricant passed therethrough to lubricate the bearings. The electrical conductivity grease fitting has a first portion in electrical communication with the body portion and a second portion that is biased into electrical communication with the tail section to maintain electrical conductivity between the tail section and the body portion.
FLUID SWIVEL
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.
90 degree adjustable close elbow
A 90 degree adjustable elbow connector for a dryer exhaust assembly, including first and second body halves having concave inner surfaces and convex outer surfaces which are connected together to collectively form a hollow, tubular elbow body defining a channel therebetween. The elbow body has a first open end and an opposite second open end disposed 90 degrees to said first open end. A ring-shaped first collar is rotatably connected to the first end of the elbow body to permit 360 degree rotation relative to the elbow body. The first collar is configured and dimensioned to connect to a dryer exhaust vent. A ring-shaped second collar is rotatably connected to the second end of the elbow body to permit 360 degree rotation relative to the elbow body. The second collar is configured and dimensioned to connect to a dryer exhaust duct.
Swivel joint with electrical conductivity grease fitting
A swivel joint includes a tail section and a body portion that define a passageway therethrough and which can rotate relative to one another. One or more seals and bearings can be disposed between the tail section and the body portion. An electrical conductivity grease fitting can be mounted within a bore hole in the body portion. The electrical conductivity grease fitting can have a lubricant passed therethrough to lubricate the bearings. The electrical conductivity grease fitting has a first portion in electrical communication with the body portion and a second portion that is biased into electrical communication with the tail section to maintain electrical conductivity between the tail section and the body portion.
Swivel joint
A fluid system swivel joint includes a body and a tail rotatably connected together and which partially define a fluid passageway. The tail has an integrally formed flange for connecting to other fluid conduits. A counterbalancing mechanism is disposed within the fluid passageway. The counterbalancing mechanism has a selectively adjustable level of tension that adjusts the amount of force required to rotate the tail relative to the body. At least a portion of the counterbalancing mechanism can be selectively inserted into or removed from the fluid passageway through an opening in the body. The opening in the body can be closed off with an end plate. A swivel assembly rotatably connects the body to a fluid conduit so that the body can rotate relative to the fluid conduit. The swivel assembly includes a collar fixedly and selectively connectable to the body, and a flange body rotatably connected to the collar.
Nozzle installation jig
Described herein is a technique capable of properly attaching a nozzle to a reaction tube. According to one aspect thereof, there is provided a nozzle installation jig including: a lower plate configured to make contact with a process vessel in a vicinity of a lower end opening of the process vessel in which a nozzle is provided; a frame fixed to the lower plate and extending upward with respect to the lower plate; an upper plate fixed to the frame and provided with a sensor configured to detect a position of the nozzle in the process vessel; and a notification device configured to transmit a notification to an operator according to a detection result of the sensor.
Frac Flowline System
A flowline system for fluidly connecting a fracturing manifold to a fracturing tree includes a first flowline assembly which is pre-assembled with the manifold, the first flowline assembly comprising a number of preassembled first flowline components and a first connection member which is located distally of the manifold; and a second flowline assembly which is connected to the tree, the second flowline assembly comprising a number of preassembled second flowline components and a second connection member which is located distally of the tree. The first and second connection members are configured to be releasably connected together to thereby fluidly connect the manifold to the tree.
RADIATOR
A radiator includes a main body, two connecting members and two taps. The two connecting members are disposed on opposite sides of the main body. Each of the two taps is rotatably connected to one of the two connecting members, such that the two taps are rotatably disposed on opposite sides of the main body.
Rotatable pipe adapter
A pipe adapter includes a first tubular element, a second tubular element, and an annular securing member disposed around and fixed to a second portion of the first tubular element. The annular securing member has a flange portion that contacts and secures the second tubular element axially relative to the first tubular element while also allowing the second tubular element to rotate relative to the first tubular element and the annular securing member. An annular sealing member is located around the first portion of the second tubular element to provide an axial seal along the adapter.
