Aerosol can spray nozzle extension tube connector
09651178 · 2017-05-16 ·

Provided is an adapter configured for use with an aerosol can spray nozzle and an extension tube. The adapter is configured to fit onto an extension tube and to receive a second extension tube to provide a more rigid and fluidly secure connection between the extension tubes. The adapter includes a portion for a first extension tube and a second extension tube portion. Each extension tube portion includes an inner channel extending therethrough, and is sized and configured to allow the extension tube to be insertable therein to create friction-tight engagement between the extension tube and the adapter.

Self-centering blind mate fluid coupling

A coupling member for a blind mate fluid coupling includes a housing and a valve body that is self-centering and alignable relative to the housing. The valve body may include at least two radial shoulder portions or abutments that are configured to engage at least two corresponding radial abutments of the housing to improve self-centering when in a decoupled state. A biasing member may urge the valve body abutments against the corresponding housing abutments to compensate for misalignment and/or provide self-centering in both a decoupled and mated state.

Connecting assembly for connecting hose segments together, and maple tree sap harvesting system provided with the same
12359756 · 2025-07-15 · ·

A connecting assembly for operatively and fluidly connecting at least first and second hose segments together. The connecting assembly includes at least one insert portion, and corresponding bulge(s), securing device(s) and fluid passage(s). The securing device is removably mounted onto and displaceable about a portion of a given length span of the insert portion, and configured for operation between a first release mode, where the securing device being is drawn away from the bulge and thus an extremity of the hosing segment is releasable, and a second connecting mode, where the securing device is removably and selectively displaced over an outward overlapping of the extremity of the hosing segment extending over the bulge, so as to securely maintain said extremity of the hosing segment in place, operatively against the bulge and thus, prevent the first extremity of the first hosing segment from being removed from the bulge.
