Abstract: A quick connector has a pair of waist segments, a shoulder segment, a body segment with an aperture therein, and a leg segment. The leg segment is defined by a pair of projecting elements which are at least partially compressible toward one another thereby causing the pair of waist segments to move toward one another. Thus, a swivelable connection is made which has the equivalent length and diameter of a convention nonswivelable threaded coupling. The quick connector may be released by hand or a snap ring tool inserted into holes.

Abstract: A port is described which will lock on to a standard hose and clamp nipple end, and accommodate more axial mis-match between the axis of the port and nipple than is normally experienced in the fabrication of piping to join between two devices. A releasing member which will release the male from the port can also be included. When two ports are used in a sleeve-like device 20 in FIG. 1, and releasers 18 in FIG. 1, pipe 12 can be joined to nipple 14 as shown. Sleeve 20 can be slipped (and shipped) completely on to pipe 12, allowing installation of pipe 12 by simply positioning pipe 12 in the installed position, and sliding sleeve 20 over nipple 14. Removal requires operating releaser 18 and moving sleeve 20 back onto pipe 12. The system easily replaces existing hose and clamp installations, but is repairable in the field with a hose and clamps.

Abstract: The method disclosed allows the bending of tubular structures with much smaller radius bends than is normally acceptable for the diameter of the tubing section that is being bent. The method is very useful for making various fittings which perform bent routing functions in piping systems. The method also allows more controllable stretching of the tube metal, because stretching is done prior to bending of the angle.

Abstract: A safety belt assembly of the present invention measures the amount of force exerted on the assembly and also the point in time when a force was exerted on the assembly. The assembly includes a first and second member associated with one another, mechanism associated with the first and second members for resiliently restraining relative movement and movably retaining said members with respect to one another; a mechanism responsive to relative movement of the first and second members for enabing a measurement of force and indicating a point in time when a force was exerted on the assembly; and a mechanism for securing the assembly to a safety belt and/or a buckle or anchor. A chemical timer for measuring the elapsed time since a force was exerted on the assembly. The chemical timer includes micro-encapsulated reactants which are frangible in response to a force exerted on the assembly for beginning reaction of a time sensitive chemical reactive system which produces a measurable change over a predetermined time period.

Abstract: A blood-down conector assembly is described which employs a rotatatable cap for controlling the axial movement of the conducit in the connector housing between the sealed and bleed-down positions. The cap is mounted concentrically over the housing for both rotational and axial movement with respect to the connector housing. The cap includes a wall portion which is formed to engage a retainer associated with the connector assembly for retaining or maintaining the conduit in the housing. The housing is formed to provide a ramp of varying axial length and the cap is formed with a plurality of depending spring-like tabs which engage the ramp and limit the axial movement of the cap with respect to the housing.
