Filed:

Jun 2, 1981

Appl. No.:

6/269680

Inventors:

Assignee:

Murray Corporation - Cockeysville MD

International Classification:

H01B 1730
F16L 502

US Classification:

277178

Abstract:

A grommet seal is disclosed comprising a cup-shaped part or piece adapted to provide a substantially air-tight seal between a wire, rod or tube and a metallic panel or the like through which the wire, rod or tube passes, and a mating part or piece interfitted with said cup-shaped part or piece, and adapted to act in combination or conjunction therewith to improve or complete the seal. The parts or pieces are provided with tongues which are flexibly movable relatively to the wire, rod or tube, to accommodate the passage through the grommet seal of wires, rods or tubes of varying or different diameters or sizes.

Assignee:

Murray Corporation - Cockeysville MD

International Classification:

F16L 3304

US Classification:

285253

Abstract:

A wire hose clamp has barbs extending from at least one of the encircling wires forming a part of the hose clamp. The barbs extend in the direction of rotation in which the clamp is urged by the application of a tool to tighten the clamp, and may be inclined to the plane containing the axis of the wire.

Assignee:

Murray Corporation - Cockeysville MD

International Classification:

F28F 902

US Classification:

165153

Abstract:

An evaporator core assembly for automotive air-conditioning service is disclosed in which attaching tubes, comprising the inlet, outlet and to some cases, an oil return tube, are removably secured to the core assembly in such a manner that the tubes may be adjusted to any desired angle in relation to the core assembly thereby reducing the service parts storage volume, required for making evaporator core assemblies of different or unique designs, as well as enabling the core assemblies to be made of different stack heights or dimensions. The removability is accomplished through the use of fittings of unique design, and nuts which are used in combination with these fittings.

Appl. No.:

6/476987

Inventors:

Robert H. Proctor - Cockeysville MD

Assignee:

Murray Corporation - Cockeysville MD

International Classification:

B65D 6302

US Classification:

24 20R

Abstract:

A radially-adjustable wire grip hose clamp made of a single wire strand forming a pair of coaxial, axially-spaced clamping loops. Each loop having a portion progressively traversing a seat element as said clamp is adjusted by a radially-disposed screw threadedly engaging a nut and bearing upon the seat element. The traversing portions are maintained at equal length to stabilize the screw against tipping and a mechanical interlock configuration of bends retains the nut against torsion-induced angular displacement.

Appl. No.:

6/497167

Inventors:

Assignee:

Murray Corporation - Cockeysville MD

International Classification:

F25B 4500

US Classification:

62149

Abstract:

A mobile air-conditioner charging station having a reluctance-type weighing scale on which are mounted reservoirs of both lubricant oil and refrigerant. A computer module reads the weight loss of the combined reservoirs as, first, the oil is charged into the air-conditioner and then, sequentially and automatically, the refrigerant is charged into the air-conditioner. Each charging cycle is completed when the computer module senses, by a plurality of discrete readings of the scale at timed intervals, that a pre-selected magnitude of weight loss has occurred and has been maintained.
