    Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides an injection-molded reamer including: an injection-molding parting line; and one or more shafts having a maximum cross-sectional dimension and a length-to-maximum-cross-sectional-dimension aspect ratio of 1:1 or greater. Each of the one or more shafts includes either: (A) one or more axial cross profiles including: a first bar having the maximum cross-sectional dimension; and a second bar having a cross-sectional dimension less than the maximum cross-section dimension, wherein the second bar is parallel to the injection-molding parting line; or (B) one or more axial elliptical profiles including: a major axis having the maximum cross-sectional dimension; and a minor axis having a cross-sectional dimension less than the maximum cross-section dimension, wherein the minor axis is parallel to the injection-molding parting line.

    Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides a composite refrigeration line set including: a suction line and a return line. One or more of the suction line and the return line are a composite refrigeration line set tube including: an inner plastic tube; a first adhesive layer circumferentially surrounding the inner plastic tube; an aluminum layer circumferentially surrounding the first adhesive layer and coupled to the inner plastic tube via the first adhesive layer; a second adhesive layer circumferentially surrounding the aluminum layer; and an outer plastic layer circumferentially surrounding the aluminum layer coupled to the aluminum layer via the second adhesive layer. The inner plastic tube is polyethylene of raised temperature. The outer plastic tube is polyethylene of raised temperature. The aluminum layer includes an alloy selected from the group consisting of: AL 3004-O, AL 3005-O, and AL 3555-O. The aluminum layer is butt-welded to itself

    Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides an elastomeric bushing including: a plurality of rigid members defining one or more internal annular ribs and one or more elastic members. The rigid members include: a first internal annular rib adapted and configured to engage a corrugation valley of corrugated tubing; and one or more trailing lips adapted and configured to extend through a central opening of a nut and engage said nut, thereby preventing axial movement of the bushing when a corrugated tubing is advancing through the bushing. The one or more elastic members are adapted and configured to: hold the plurality of rigid members in a substantially annular configuration; allow the plurality of rigid members to expand to allow a corrugation peak to pass under the first internal rib; and hold the plurality of rigid members against the corrugated tubing so that the first internal rib lies within a corrugation valley.

    Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides a sealing device for connecting a length of corrugated tubing. The sealing device includes: a body member defining a sleeve portion; a nut adapted and configured for threaded engagement with the body member, the nut defining an internal shoulder; and a bushing. The bushing includes: an annular internal rib located on a proximal end, the annular internal rib adapted and configured to engage a corrugation valley of corrugated tubing; a medial external rib adapted and configured to be engaged by the internal shoulder of the nut and to advance the bushing within the sleeve portion of the body member; and a trailing hinged portion located on a distal end. The trailing hinged portion is adapted and configured for inward compression against the corrugated tubing received within the bushing as the nut is advanced over the trailing hinged portion.
