Abstract:
Device for a double hose structure with an inner main hose and an outer cover hose defining an annular space giving buoyancy in water. At least one end is provided with a coupling member forming a mount for the main hose and the cover hose which at a free end merges into a threaded portion for connecting the hose assembly to an auxiliary connection. The coupling member comprises an inner coupling sleeve connected to one end of the main hose and an outer coupling sleeve connected to the cover hose, the inner and outer coupling sleeves being mutually connected forming a liquid tight termination of the annulus by a ring-shaped plate. The plate is attached with screws through holes only to the outer sleeve, the plate being forced against a shoulder of the inner coupling sleeve by a ring nut with internal threads matching external threads on the inner sleeve.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fluid connection and heating device, to the method of assembly thereof, to a fluid transfer circuit, e.g. "SCR", incorporating said device, and to the method of assembly thereof. This device (1) comprises: - an outer connector (40), inside which the following are formed: * a first axial channel (41) from a first port (O1) of the connector for a fluid that is to be heated, and * a second channel (42) that surrounds said first channel, is intended for a coolant and comprises a radial portion (44) and an axial portion (45) that extends said radial portion as far as a second port (O3) of the connector that is coaxial to the first port; and - an insert (50) that is mounted in the connector and connects the first port to a first pipe (20) via the first and second insert ends (51 and 52) that are adjacent to the first and second ports, the insert defining the first channel and the annular axial portion formed between the insert and a tubular wall (46) of the connector as far as the second port. The insert is mounted by sliding (F) through the second port from an intermediate position to a final position in which the second end of said insert is outside and inside the second port, respectively.
Abstract:
A hose section (10) for a sea water suction hose (50) and a method of assembling a sea water suction hose (50) is provided. The hose section (10) comprising attachment means (18) for attaching an auxiliary hose section (20) thereto. The method of assembling the sea water suction hose (50) comprising the steps of providing at least two sea water hose sections (10) each having an attachment means (18) for attaching an auxiliary hose section (20) thereto, attaching an auxiliary hose section (20) to each sea water hose section (10), connecting the auxiliary hose sections (20) together and connecting the sea water hose sections (10) together.
Abstract:
The disclosed subject matter includes embodiments of fluid couplings that prevent or discourage misconnection of fluid lines. A coupling device includes multiple male and female connectors that are joined to a common line. The coupling device is mated to a matching coupling device only when all the multiple male and female connectors are property joined. If any of the connectors is not property mated to a corresponding one, the coupling will leak. The coupling devices are made unique by providing an arrangement the connectors, number of connectors, shape of connectors or arrangement of interfering connector parts that ensure that any attempt to improperly couple two fluid lines will result in the incomplete mating of one or more of the connectors and thereby cause leakage of the fluid, failure of the coupling to engage, or otherwise cause the attempt to connect to fail.
Abstract:
A heat exchanger (12) for an air conditioning circuit of a motor vehicle, comprises a body (12) defining a central duct (16') having an axis (A) and a plurality of peripheral ducts (18') surrounding the central duct (16') and at least one connector (14; 15) defining a first port (20) fluidically connected to the central duct (16') and a second port (28) fluidically connected to the peripheral ducts (18'), so that the central duct (16') and the peripheral ducts (18') are fluidically insulated. In particular, the connector (14; 15) comprises a tubular portion (19) fluid-sealingly housed within the central duct (16') and fluidically connected to the first port (20) and defines a chamber (27) surrounding the tubular portion (19) and fluidically connected between the peripheral ducts (18') and the second port.
