The close-coupled fitting allows practical vessel/s to be connected in a manifold configuration with minimal space between them. As an example, a Tee-piece close-coupled fitting is in the shape of a "T" and comprises a fitting at an approximate 90{ angle extending from the 180{ plane. One end of the section on the 180{ plane is a female socket that begins approximately flush with one side of the 90{ fitting and has an internal limit that intrudes some-way into the opening of the 90{ fitting. The male socket of the 180{ plane extends outwards from the other side of the 90{ fitting. Multiple Tee-piece close-coupled fittings connect along the 180{ plane by inserting the male socket into the female socket. This invention allows an alternative manner of manufacture for storage units that affords flexibility and maximises the available space for such units. |
