2. North American Fire Hose Coupler Incompatibilities - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Fire_Hose...

   5-inch hose with 5-inch Storz (125 mm) couplings Commonly carried on U.S. fire engines to pull water from fire hydrants for distribution with the engine's on-board pump. Some of these hoses will have Storz to 4.5-4 NH thread adapters (often with wide handles) already connected to them, in order to facilitate connection to fire hydrants without ...

3. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

   The fitting is known as a reducing coupling, reducer, or adapter if their sizes differ. There are two types of collars: "regular" and "slip". A regular coupling has a small ridge or stops internally to prevent the over-insertion of a pipe and, thus, under-insertion of the other pipe segment (which would result in an unreliable connection).

4. Hose coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hose_coupling

   The "Air King" [14] universal air hose coupling, also known as a "Chicago style" fitting, is malleable iron or brass "quarter turn" "sexless coupling" usually found on large pneumatic tools like jackhammers. [6] The fitting is considered "universal", because a common two-lug head is used on all sizes ranging from 0.25 to 1 inch (6 to 25 mm).

5. Coupling (piping) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_(piping)

   Alternatively it is a short length of pipe with two female National pipe threads (NPT) (in North American terms, a coupler is a double female while a nipple is double male) or two male or female British standard pipe threads. If the two ends of a coupling are of different standards or joining methods, the coupling is called an adapter. Examples ...

6. Power dividers and directional couplers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_dividers_and...

   A 10 dB 1.7–2.2 GHz directional coupler. From left to right: input, coupled, isolated (terminated with a load), and transmitted port. A 3 dB 2.0–4.2 GHz power divider/combiner. Power dividers (also power splitters and, when used in reverse, power combiners) and directional couplers are passive devices used

7. Coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling

   An improvised flexible coupling made of car tyre pieces connects the drive shafts of an engine and a water pump. This one is used to cancel out misalignment and dampen vibrations. Rotating coupling. A coupling is a device used to connect two shafts together at their ends for the purpose of transmitting power. The primary purpose of couplings is ...
