Classification: CPC F | IPC F

Claim 19:
20. A hydraulic coupling system configured to couple a hydraulic hose to an automotive hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic coupling system comprising:
a compressive adapter assembly including:
a first adapter portion configured to receive a portion of the hydraulic hose, and
a second adapter portion configured to engage an inlet tube of the automotive hydraulic cylinder, wherein a first tube portion of the inlet tube of the automotive hydraulic cylinder is configured to be received within a portion of the hydraulic hose, and the second adapter portion is permanently deformable around the inlet tube to permanently retain the second adapter portion with respect to the inlet tube; and

a compressive sleeve assembly configured to engage the compressive adapter assembly and radially compress the first adapter portion of the compressive adapter assembly onto an outer surface of the portion of the hydraulic hose, thus compressing an inner surface of the portion of the hydraulic hose onto the first tube portion of the inlet tube of the automotive hydraulic cylinder, wherein:
the compressive sleeve assembly is configured to threadably engage the compressive adapter assembly to radially compress the first adapter portion of the compressive adapter assembly onto the outer surface of the portion of the hydraulic hose, and
the compressive sleeve assembly is configured to include a tapered female thread portion and the compressive adapter assembly is configured to include a complementary tapered male thread portion.
