Filed:

Nov 20, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/300119

Inventors:

Jagan N. Suchdev - Lemont IL 60429

International Classification:

F16L 900

US Classification:

138177, 138109, 138118, 138121

Abstract:

A water delivery tube assembly for use in an internal combustion engine of a locomotive provides water between an inlet aperture of a power pack and an outlet aperture of a manifold where the inlet aperture and outlet apertures are longitudinally offset from each other and are disposed in misaligned planes. The assembly includes a flexible metal pipe having inlet and outlet ends and a metal braid surrounding the pipe. The inlet and outlet housings are operatively coupled to the inlet and outlet ends of the pipe, respectively and defme an internal fluid flow path in fluid communication with the pipe. The inlet and outlet housings have compound angles defining the fluid flow path such that when the inlet housing is secured to the power pack and the outlet housing is secured to the manifold, the flexible metal pipe is maintained in a substantially linear configuration between the housings.
