Fluid line nut locking device

A detachable, nut locking device to hold and secure typical connecting nuts used on standard fluid transmission line end adapter means to join and seal together separate fluid transmission lines, said device comprising:

• A. a pair of typical wrenches, each of standard design, each having a front and rear face and each configured to closely circumscribe, grip and hold an appropriate, typical connecting nut on a fluid transmission line end point adapter of known, commercial design;
• B. said pair of wrenches, each having a shortened handle integral thereto, with an integral ear, having a front face and a rear parallel face, extending in an L-shape from the end of the handle, normal to and with said faces parallel to the long axis of the handle and outwardly from the front face of said wrench;
• C. said ears on said wrench handles each having suitable and generally matching openings extending therethrough from front face to rear face, to permit removable introduction and passage of a suitable standard nut and bolt fastening means;
• D. a suitable standard bolt type fastener, of known design, with at least one threaded end and a matching threaded nut removably attachable thereto, to be used to draw together and hold said ears on said pair of said wrenches;
• E. said wrenches being each removably placed on the appropriate separate fluid transmission line end adapter means, behind the appropriately sized connecting nut attached thereto, and before the lines are joined, with the respective ears facing each other, said fluid transmission lines are then joined, with an appropriate seal, of known design, placed therebetween, said connecting nuts tightened to near their optimum torque, using conventional tightening means;
• and
• F. said pair of wrenches are then appropriately positioned on the connecting nuts and said standard bolt type fastener is inserted through the openings in the ears on the wrench handles, a nut attached thereto and tightened to hold and secure the connecting nuts and the seal from loosening and leaking during the operation and use of the fluid transmission lines.
