Patent ID: 7427084

Claim:
A longitudinally extending double walled assembly comprising: a primary assembly including a first hose casing, a first fixed conduit casing and a first releasable coupler assembly, said first coupler assembly connecting said first hose casing and said first fixed conduit casing; and a secondary containment assembly including a second hose casing, a second fixed containment casing and a second releasable coupler assembly; said second coupler assembly being mounted on said second hose casing and including a shank having an abutment part and a longitudinally shiftable sleeve part, said shank being sealingly coupled to said second hose casing and extending longitudinally toward said second fixed containment casing, said sleeve part having a first longitudinal position in which said sleeve part extends beyond said shank, said abutment part being a radially outwardly extending projection having an annular seal member sealingly mounted upon said abutment part, said abutment part engageable with said sleeve when said sleeve is positioned proximate said first longitudinal position and inhibiting removal of said sleeve part from said shank, said second fixed containment casing and a second longitudinal position retracted toward said second hose easing and spaced from said second fixed containment casing, wherein said sleeve part is sealingly couplable to said second fixed containment casing in said first longitudinal position, and said primary assembly and its first releasable coupler assembly are exposed when said sleeve part is in said second longitudinal position; said sleeve part being threadingly longitudinally shiftably mounted on said shank and being longitudinally shiftable independent of said first releasable coupler assembly; and a collar threadingly mounted on said shank and abuttingly engageable with said sleeve part when said sleeve part is in said first longitudinal position wherein abutting engagement between said collar and said sleeve part inhibits longitudinal movement of said sleeve part toward said second hose casing.
