Patent 7350832 was granted and assigned to Bridgeport Fittings on April, 2008 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
By providing two mating components to which any desired threaded conduits are easily, securely affixed, with the mating components being constructed for interengagement with each other in a telescoping self aligning construction, an easily used, inexpensively produced, conduit coupling and connector assembly is achieved. Furthermore, the conduit coupling and connector assembly also incorporates a locking member which engages the two mating components and securely affixes the two components to each other, in a manner which provides the desired affixed interengagement, while also assuring that a rain free/moisture free engagement is attained.
