ABSTRACT:
A fluid coupling apparatus for communicating fluid between a fluid hose and a heat exchanger wherein the fluid coupling apparatus minimizes or eliminates the spacing required or necessitated from the bending of a fluid hose. The present invention provides a hollow substantially cylindrical first portion defining a first passageway communicatable with a fluid hose, and a hollow substantially rectangular second portion integrally extending from said first portion. The second portion of the present invention has at least one substantially flat surface wherein an aperture extends through the flat surface of the second portion to provide a second passageway in communication with the first passageway and in communication with the heat exchanger. The second portion has an annular raised shoulder or lip which further defines the aperture and which is utilized to connect the fluid coupling apparatus to the heat exchanger.
