Abstract
A connector is mounted to a first object and connected between an outlet device and an inlet device to direct a fluid. The connector comprises: a housing mounted to the first object; a pipeline penetrating the housing in a flow direction of the fluid and comprising an outlet end connected to the outlet device and an inlet end connected to the inlet device; a floating device disposed on the housing and floatingly connected to the pipeline, allowing the pipeline to float in the radial direction transverse to a flow direction of the fluid with respect to the housing.
Claims15
A connector (100) mounted to a first object and connected between an outlet device (500) and an inlet device (600) to direct a fluid, wherein the connector (100) comprises:
- a housing (110) mounted to the first object;
- a pipeline (120) penetrating the housing (110) in a flow direction of the fluid and comprising an outlet end (121) connected to the outlet device (500) and an inlet end (122) connected to the inlet device (600);
- and
- a floating device disposed on the housing (110) and floatingly connected to the pipeline (120), allowing the pipeline (120) to float in the radial direction transverse to a flow direction of the fluid with respect to the housing (110), the floating device comprising at least one bolt (130) and at least one spring (160), the bolt (130) penetrates a sidewall (111) of the housing (110) in the radial direction, and the spring (160) is abutted between the bolt (130) and the sidewall (111) of the pipeline (120), allowing the pipeline (120) to float in the radial direction.
A connector (100) mounted to a first object and connected between an outlet device (500) and an inlet device (600) to direct a fluid, wherein the connector (100) comprises:
- a housing (110) mounted to the first object;
- a pipeline (120) penetrating the housing (110) in a flow direction of the fluid and comprising an outlet end (121) connected to the outlet device (500) and an inlet end (122) connected to the inlet device (600);
- a floating device disposed on the housing (110) and floatingly connected to the pipeline (120), allowing the pipeline (120) to float in the radial direction transverse to a flow direction of the fluid with respect to the housing (110);
- and
- wherein the housing (110) has two pairs of sidewalls (111) opposite to each other, and a mounting groove (117) is provided in one pair of the sidewalls (111) along a surface of each sidewall (111), and the mounting groove (117) extends over a partial height of the sidewall (111) so that the housing (110) is mounted to the first object by a bolt penetrating the remaining height of the sidewall (111).
