High pressure tube attachment mechanisms.

摘要

A tube attachment mechanism for attaching a high pressure tube (10) to an opening (16) in a housing (18) is described. A securing device (22) is positioned about the tube end (14) and the securing device is press-fitted into place in the opening so that it is press-fitted not only to the housing on an outer diameter portion (40) but also inwardly against the tube end, sealing the opening and the tube so as to hold about 34474 kPa (5,000 p.s.i.) pressure and also securing the tube against forces tending to move the tube axially or rotationally so as to loosen the tube.
