Abstract: The present invention is a high pressure quick connector especially for use in connecting brake lines of a vehicle. The connector includes a housing which selectively receives a tube retainer cap. Retaining means such as a garter spring or snap ring allow for a low force insertion of the cap into the housing with an very high pull-off force. The cap is used to trap a tube with a bead upset, and the tube may be removed after the cap is unlocked. A second way of releasing the tube includes the use of a tube retainer plug selectively received in the cap, the upset trapped between the plug and cap. The plug can be removed while the cap is still locked in the housing, releasing the tube. A release tool may be used to unlock the cap from the housing. An insertion indicator ring is used to establish the locking of the cap within the housing. A dust boot prevents contaminants from interfering with the operation of the connector.

Abstract: A multi-layer tube suitable for use in a motor vehicle system to transport fluids containing hydrocarbons such as would be found in a fuel line, a vapor return line or a vapor recovery tube having a first layer radially disposed innermost made up of an extrudable melt-processible thermoplastic material selected from the group consisting of aromatic polyketones, aliphatic polyketones and mixtures thereof, and second layer made up of an extrudable, melt-processible thermoplastic material capable of sufficiently permanent laminar adhesion with the first layer so as to prevent delamination between the first and second layers during a desired lifetime of the tube, and a third layer overlying the first layer made up of a melt-processible thermoplastic material such as polyamides, high density polyethylenes and mixtures thereof. The tubing of the present invention may, optionally, include additional layers interposed between the respective layers or may include additional layers which overlie the exterior surface of the second layer.

Abstract: A high pressure quick connector having a tube which includes an upset adjacent one end. A male locking assembly is positioned about the tube and includes a cavity enclosing the upset and a contoured outer surface defining first and second grooves spaced axially along the male locking assembly. A female member having an internal bore is adapted to receive the male locking member. The female member has an internal bore that includes a locking groove. An expandable annular locking ring is mounted about the contoured outer surface and the locking ring is initially mounted in the first groove and is slidable from the first groove to the second groove upon axial movement of the male locking assembly into the female member. The second groove is adjacent the locking groove upon full insertion of the male locking member into the female locking member with the expandable annular locking ring being positioned within the second groove and adjacent the locking groove so that the locking ring is nested between the adjacent second groove and the locking groove.

Abstract: A multi-layer tube for use in a motor vehicle system to transport fluids containing hydrocarbons such as would be found in a fuel line, a vapor return line or a vapor recovery tube having a first layer radially disposed innermost made up of an extrudable melt-processible thermoplastic material capable of withstanding prolonged exposure to automotive fuel and various fuel additives, and second layer made up of an extrudable, melt-processible non-polyester, non-alcoholic thermoplastic material capable of sufficiently permanent laminar connection with the first layer so as to prevent delamination between the first and second layers during a desired lifetime of the tube. The thermoplastic material of the second layer is made up of at least one constituent which is chemically dissimilar from the thermoplastic material employed in the first layer such as a melt-processible compound having at least two isocyanate groups in combination with a compound which is chemically similar to the thermoplastic material of the first layer such as a thermoplastic elastomer, or a polyamide. The tubing of the present invention may, optionally, include additional layers interposed between the respective layers or may include additional layers which overlie the exterior surface of the second layer.
