Latest Patents
Edward Brosius holds a patent for a "Pipe fitting with compression of seal structure." This invention provides a fitting that can be secured on pipes made from various materials and types. The design includes a nut that receives a Belleville spring washer. As the nut is tightened on the threads of an end fitting, it forces the Belleville spring washer away from its relaxed position. This action causes the inner portion of the spring washer to dig into the outer surface of the pipe, effectively locking the washer and nut onto the pipe. The deformation of the washer also compresses a ring against an inner seal, ensuring a tight fit against the pipe, nut, and end fitting. In a second embodiment, an additional washer is also deformed. This invention offers a simple and universal method for attaching pipes to end fittings.
