Abstract: A tube fitting for connection to a tube includes a main body structure and a tube liner. The main body structure is configured to receive an end of the tube and fluidly connect the tube to another component. The tube liner is positioned at least partially within the main body structure and is configured to extend into the tube. The main body structure and the tube liner are configured such that, when the tube is fully inserted into the tube fitting, the end of the tube is positioned at a predetermined depth within the tube fitting, and the main body structure and the tube liner cooperate together to provide an audible indication to indicate that the tube has been fully inserted into the tube fitting.

Abstract: A terminal portion for sealing an end of a conduit includes a body including a first end having a first diameter and a second end having a second diameter, the first diameter having a smaller size than the second diameter. The terminal portion further includes an internal ring disposed over and around the first end of the body, and a sleeve disposed over the body and the internal ring. The sleeve is structured to contain an outer portion of the end of the conduit and is dimensioned to accommodate the first end of the body and the conduit. At least one inner sleeve contained in the sleeve houses the body.

Abstract: A connector includes a connecting body with a fluid passage at least part way therethrough, and a seal is provided with an outer portion of a fluid tube. A cartridge proximate to the connecting body has a hollow portion therethrough. A grab part has at least one tooth to retain the fluid tube and is between the cartridge and the seal. A demount part within the hollow portion moves the teeth to allow release of the fluid tube. A latch is located on one of the connecting body or a sleeve covering at least part of the cartridge or the connecting body. A mating catch is located on the other of the sleeve or the connecting body, and engagement of the latch with the catch connects the sleeve to the connecting body and helps restrain cartridge movement.
