Abstract
A cap removal device is adapted to remove end caps from water pump devices. The cap removal device has a cap remover that is adapted to be secured to the end caps of pressure vessels. The cap removal device further has a honed tube that is adapted to stabilize the cap removal device and the end cap during removal of the end cap thereby preventing cross-threading. The cap removal device also has a puller handle that is adapted to make removal of the end cap more efficient.
Claims13
A cap removal system for removing end caps from reverse osmosis pressure vessels, the system comprising:
- a reverse osmosis pressure vessel;
- a cap remover screwed to an end cap of the reverse osmosis pressure vessel through at least two screw holes;
- a honed tube having an inset area adapted to be secured to the end cap of the reverse osmosis pressure vessel, the honed tube adapted to stabilize the cap removal device when removing the end cap from the reverse osmosis pressure vessel, wherein the honed tube has a larger circumference than the cap remover, wherein the honed tube has a first end and a second end the second end has larger opening than the first end;
- and
- a puller handle adapted to be secured to the cap remover, wherein movement of the puller handle removes the end cap from the reverse osmosis pressure vessel.
A method of removing an end cap from a reverse osmosis pressure device, the method comprising:
- securing a cap remover to the end cap of the reverse osmosis pressure vessel;
- securing a honed tube to the cap remover and the end cap of the pressure vessel;
- stabilizing the cap remover with the honed tube;
- securing the puller handle to the cap remover;
- and
- removing the end cap from the reverse osmosis pressure vessel via movement of the puller handle.
A cap removal device for removing end caps from a reverse osmosis pressure vessel, the device comprising:
- a cap remover adapted to be secured to an end cap of a reverse osmosis pressure vessel;
- a honed tube adapted to be secured to the end cap and adapted to stabilize the cap removal device when removing the end cap from reverse osmosis pressure vessel, wherein the honed tube has a larger circumference than the cap remover;
- a puller handle adapted to be secured to the cap remover, wherein movement of the puller handle removes the end cap from the reverse osmosis pressure vessel;
- and
- wherein the stabilization by the honed tube is adapted to prevent cross-threading during removal of the end cap from the vessel.
