Abstract
A connector system includes an adaptor with a magnetic target surface, and a nozzle that is configured to be connected to the magnetic target surface of the adaptor by a magnetic coupling. The nozzle has a housing having an inlet end and an outlet end, and a throughgoing channel having an axial extension therebetween. The housing includes one or more magnets that are arranged at the inlet end and configured to direct or indirect engage the magnetic target surface in a condition when the nozzle is connected to the adaptor. Further, the housing includes one or more air vents that are arranged at the outlet end and which have an axial extension being radially displaced in view of the axial extension of the throughgoing channel.
Claims18
A connector system for an exhaust extraction system, the connector system comprising:
- an adaptor configured to be connected to a tail pipe of a vehicle, the adaptor comprising a magnetic target surface;
- and
- a nozzle forming part of the exhaust extraction system and the nozzle being configured to be connected to the magnetic target surface of the adaptor by a magnetic coupling;
- said nozzle comprising a housing having an inlet end and an outlet end, and a throughgoing channel having an axial extension between the inlet end and the outlet end,
- wherein the nozzle includes a funnel-like connection portion, and
- wherein said housing comprises:
- one or more magnets that are arranged at the inlet end, said magnets being configured to directly or indirectly engage the magnetic target surface of the adaptor in a condition when the nozzle is connected to the adaptor;
- and
- one or more air vents that are arranged at the outlet end and which are radially displaced in view of the axial extension of the throughgoing channel.
A nozzle configured to form part of an exhaust extraction system and to be connected directly or indirectly to a tail pipe of a vehicle by a magnetic coupling, the nozzle comprising a housing having an inlet end and an outlet end, and a throughgoing channel having an axial extension between the inlet end and the outlet end,
- wherein the nozzle includes a funnel-like connection portion, and
- wherein said housing comprises:
- one or more magnets that are arranged at the inlet end, said magnets being configured to engage a magnetic target surface of a vehicle;
- and
- one or more air vents that are arranged at the outlet end and which have an axial extension being radially displaced in view of the axial extension of the throughgoing channel.
