WATER JET COIL-TO-HOSE CONNECTOR GUIDE

Abstract:

A fluid delivery/connector system (26) includes a high pressure tubular coil (30) connected to the upper end of a flexible hose (32) by an interface connector assembly (34) which is movable in the up-and-down directions to accommodate the movement of the lower end of the flexible hose which is connected to the nozzle assembly (22) of a fluid cutter system (20). The interface connector assembly (34) is mounted on a guideway (72) which enables the interface connector assembly to travel in an up-and-down direction to accommodate the movement of the nozzle assembly (22).
