FLUID VESSEL ASSEMBLY WITH ADHESIVE CONNECTION

Abstract:

A fluid vessel assembly is provided with a first vessel body with a first mating surface and a first adherent surface nonparallel with the first mating surface. The first vessel body forms a first portion of a fluid cavity. A second vessel body with a second mating surface is sized to engage the first mating surface. A second adherent surface is sized to cooperate with the first adherent surface. The second vessel body forms a second portion of the fluid cavity. An adhesive is applied to the first adherent surface and the second adherent surface to bond the first vessel body and the second vessel body together.
