Fluid tubing - has construction based upon interlocking identical elements

摘要

The flexible link system is used to form a tube for the passage of a fluid medium from one location to another. The tube is assembled from a number of identical elements (2) that are produced with a ball section at one end (3) and an internal cup shaped profile (17) at the other. The ball is a press fit into the cup and provides for high pressure sealing. The end of the cup shaped section can have a tapered thread with a nut to apply a clamping force. ADVANTAGE - As high pressure fluid coupling.
