METHOD OF ATTACHING SUPPLY CONDUIT TO A SOLENOID OPERATED VALVE

摘要

A method of non-releasably quick-connecting a tubular metal conduit to the inlet of a non-metallic valve body (12). A closure having a tube-receiving bore (56) is then pre-assembled with a frictionally engaging spring washer (68) and seal rings (62, 64) therein and is then secured to the valve inlet preferably by non-metallic weldment. The tubular conduit (54) is then inserted into the bore and radially compresses the seal rings and frictionally engages the spring washer to prevent subsequent removal of the conduit.
