Abstract
The absorbing device includes a hollow enclosed chamber including two pot parts. Open ends of the pot parts are connectable to each other by welding or soldering. Each of the pot parts is integrally formed in an opposing end of an air-conditioning conduit, wherein open ends of the pot parts are oriented toward each other. Each of the pot parts is provided with a reduced passage opening interconnected with an internal space of the air-conditioning conduit via a tapered section.

An absorbing device for an air-conditioning system, comprising:
- a first pot part integrally formed in an end of a first air conditioning conduit;
- and
- a second pot part cooperating with the first pot part to form a hollow enclosed chamber, the second pot part integrally formed in an end of a second air conditioning conduit, an open end of the first pot part connected to an open end of the second pot part, each of the first pot part and the second pot part including a passage therein to provide fluid communication between the hollow enclosed chamber and respective internal spaces of the first air conditioning conduit and the second air conditioning conduit.
An absorbing device for an air-conditioning system, comprising:
- a unitary pot part forming a hollow enclosed chamber;
- an inlet formed in the unitary pot part, the inlet having an opening in communication with the hollow enclosed chamber;
- an outlet formed in the unitary pot part, the outlet having an opening in communication with the hollow enclosed chamber;
- a first conduit having an end;
- a second conduit having an end;
- a first mouthpiece configured to couple the end of the first conduit to the inlet, an inner diameter of the first mouthpiece smaller than in internal diameter of the first conduit;
- and
- a second mouthpiece configured to couple the end of the second conduit to the outlet, an inner diameter of the second mouthpiece smaller than an internal diameter of the second conduit.
A method of forming an absorbing device, comprising:
- providing a first conduit having an end:
- providing a second conduit having an end;
- ramming the end of the first conduit to reduce an internal diameter and increase a wall thickness of the end of the first conduit, wherein an outer diameter of the first conduit is retained;
- ramming the end of the second conduit to reduce an internal diameter and increase a wall thickness of the end of the second conduit, wherein an outer diameter of the second conduit is retained;
- widening a distal portion of the end of the first conduit to form a first pot part having an open end;
- widening a distal portion of the end of the second conduit to form a second pot part having an open end;
- and
- joining the open end of the first pot part to the open end of the second pot part to form a hollow enclosed chamber.
