A utility coupler that includes a coupling unit and a tool unit that can be selectively engaged together. The coupling unit may include a body, a cam member, a handle, and one or more utility couplings. The tool unit may include a body, a latching pin, and one or more utility couplings. In operation, the coupling unit may be placed into a decoupled position with the handle in a first position. The coupling unit may be moved into proximity of the tool unit. The handle may be moved to a second position causing the cam member to engage with the latching pin and couple the coupling unit to the tool unit. The utility couplings engage together to pass the one or more utilities to the industrial equipment.

A releasable clamp which can be installed without using a wrench to tighten it on the fittings is disclosed. The lock nut and T bar embodiments enable the clamp to place a pre-set amount of clamping pressure on a pair of pipe fittings so as to minimize the gasket compression into the pipe's flow path.

A method for producing a tube arrangement for the transport of tempering medium, in which base body sections are provided, which have congruently configured separating surfaces, wherein at least one functional element on at least one base body section is arranged in such a way that it can be in contact with the tempering medium, whereafter the base body sections are joined along the separating surface and bonded to one another to form the tube arrangement.

Method and apparatus for an improved camlock fitting having outer/inner cam lever which are restrained against unintended opening or rotation by a pivoting locking member which is pivotally mounted onto an axle disposed in a corresponding hole on the cam levers so that the pivoting locking member can be easily pivoted in the vertical plane relative to the cam arms. Each of the outer and inner arms has a pivoting locking member mounted on its underside in a protective housing. The camlock fitting may also have an air vent. Together this provides a safety lock assembly for the cam lock fitting so that when the cam lock fitting is pressurized unbeknownst to the operator and the operator attempts to open the cam lock fitting, the safety lock assembly will prevent operation or complete separation of the male and the female portions of the fitting to prevent inadvertent pressurized discharge of hazardous materials.

A valve connector includes a housing and a pressing device. The housing includes an operative end, a coupling end, and a through-hole extending from the operative end through the coupling end. The pressing device includes a push seat received in the through-hole and located between the lever and the coupling end and a lever abutting against the push seat and pivotably connected to the housing. The push seat includes a first passageway. The lever includes a second passageway and is operable to move the push seat. When the lever is in a release position, the first passageway does not intercommunicate with the second passageway. When the lever moves from the release position to a locking position, the push seat moves towards the coupling end, and the first passageway intercommunicates with the second passageway when the lever is in the locking position.
