    摘要: An offset-alignment pivotable high-pressure coupler fitting for use to demountably and sealingly engage two misaligned high-pressure fluid lines. The coupler fitting comprises: (i) a female part having a bore therethrough with one end configured for sealing demountable engagement with an end of a first high-pressure fluid line and the other end having a symmetrical spherical recess, (ii) a male part having a bore therethrough with one end configured for sealing demountable engagement with an end of a second high-pressure fluid line and the other end having a symmetrical spherical protrusion that matches and is slidingly communicable with the spherical recess in the female part, and (iii) demountable engagement means configured for demountable and sealing engagement of the symmetrical spherical recess of the female part and the symmetrical spherical protrusion of the male part.

    摘要: A mixer valve (1) having a body (2) and adapted to be connected to two fluid supplies. The mixer valve (1) has at least one connector (6) comprising a housing (8); a fluid delivery tube (10) within the housing, the fluid delivery tube (10) having at least one aperture (22); a slider (16) arranged around and slideable over the delivery tube (10) and having an interior chamber (18) in fluid communication with an interior (20) of the delivery tube by means of the at least one aperture (22); and a fluid inlet (14) connected to the slider (16) at an angle thereto, the fluid inlet (14) being connectable to a fluid supply pipe. The fluid inlet (14) is in fluid communication with the chamber (18), and the housing (8) has an external opening (12) within which the fluid inlet (14) is located and movable.

    摘要: First circumferential grooves (first compressed air supply grooves, first pressure oil supply grooves, and a first coolant supply groove) formed on a first sliding surface, and second circumferential grooves (second compressed air supply grooves, second pressure oil supply grooves, and a second coolant supply groove) formed on a second sliding surface are formed in a rotary joint to be opposite to each other when seen from a radial direction of the rotary joint. In one pair of the opposite first circumferential groove and second circumferential groove, a type and a use of a fluid flowing in the first circumferential groove is the same as a type and a use of a fluid flowing in the second circumferential groove.

    摘要: A method for replacing an outer annular ring of a fluid swivel includes a swivel comprising an inner annular ring and an outer annular ring, the rings being located with their adjacent cylindrical surfaces in close proximity for defining a chamber, for receiving a fluid, between peripheral opposing faces of the inner annular ring and the outer annular ring, wherein the inner annular ring is adapted to be connected to an end of a fluid line and wherein the outer annular ring is adapted to be connected to a product piping on the vessel, wherein the method comprises the steps of: removing the outer annular ring, replacing the outer annular ring by means of a first semi-circular element and a second semi-circular element, and fixing the first semi-circular element to the second semi-circular element, by means of a fixing means, to form a replacement outer annular ring of the swivel.
