ABSTRACT:
An adapter for coupling a passageway and a conduit having off-center longitudinal center lines. The adapter includes an elongated internal chamber having an opening for coupling to the passageway. One or more walls of the internal chamber are provided with thickened portions. The circular margins of an opening drilled into the chamber are adapted to circumferentially engage the outer periphery of the extremity of a conduit for sealed association, as by soldering or brazing. Continuation of the drilled opening into the thickened portions of the chamber wall or walls provides arcuate ledges for engaging the end of the conduit to provide structural support. The location of the drilled opening along the length of the chamber establishes the center line distance between the passageway and the conduit. Another drilled opening may be provided for placement of a filter in the chamber.
