ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for sealably interconnecting a plurality of tubes between systems enabling complete manufacture of one portion of a system with associated tubes separately from the other portions of a system facilitating complete manufacture of sub-assemblies and easy accurate interconnection upon final assembly. The apparatus includes a multiple tube connector resilient block and clamp bar for one sub-assembly. The block is sealably connected on a base plate which connects the block and tubes to a device which uses and/or controls the channeling between the tubes connected thereto. The apparatus seals the channels opening through the face of the resilient block in which the tubes are sealed against the relatively non-resilient base plate surface in alignment with ports in the base plate. The base plate has means for gripping the clamp bar on the block, ports, and a raised bead and a counterbore at each port to insure alignment between the channels and ports and to provide against occluding a channel or port by flow of the resilient block under clamping force. Two blocks with tubes and a base plate are connectable to opposite sides of a double sided base plate for interconnecting tubes intermediate spans of tubes such as at the fire wall of an automobile and the bulkhead of a plane or ship.
