ABSTRACT:
A telescoping connector for a coupling assembly is disclosed having a first telescoping tubular member connected to a fluid line and a second telescoping tubular member. The second tubular member includes internal threads adapted to engage cooperating external threads on the first tubular member. The first tubular member is integrally attached to the fluid line and the threads of the second telescoping tubular member are threaded over the threads on the first tubular member and run out. The threads on the second tubular member can then axially slide over a limited neck portion of the first tubular member defined by the distance between its threads and a shoulder formed thereon. This telescoping axial movement enhances the connection process of solid wall, stationary fluid lines. A dual O-ring assembly prevents fluid leakage between the telescoping tubular members.
