FLUID CONTAINER MOUNTING METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

FLUID CONTAINER MOUNTING METHOD AND APPARATUS A fluid container mounting and method of mounting in which the fluid container has a tubular member projecting outwardly from the container for insertion into an opening in a supporting member. The tubular member has a closure member extending over the end of the tubular member and away from the supporting member. A collar for clamping the closure member to the tubular member is mounted on the tubular member and is of a size for a generally close fit of the collar in the opening. A resilient lock is carried by the collar for retraction upon movement of the tubular member through the opening and for extension into locking engagement with the supporting member after insertion into the opening. Quick mounting of the container is provided by the method of retracting the lock, inserting the tubular member into the opening and pushing the tubular member through the opening to a position where the lock is released and resiliently set in locking engagement with the supporting member.
