Publication number: 20230184360Abstract: A quick connector coupling for making a severable connection with a male member in a fluid line includes a connector body having a through bore for receiving the male member having a tubular shape sized to extend into the through bore of the connector body, a retainer releasably securing the male member within the connector body, and a verifier including at least one arm extending outside the connector body. Further, the verifier is coupled to the connector body and is moved to a latched position from an unlatched position when the male member is securely connected with the connector body. The connector body includes at least one verification element, which is at least partially covered by the at least one arm extending from the verifier in the unlatched position. The verification element of the connector body is uncovered and readable when the verifier is moved to the latched position.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2023Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: TI GROUP AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS, LLCInventors: David GABBEY, Cody RYDIN, Iris BARTHEL, Kay BUBE, André HÄCKEL, Reiner ROHDE

Patent number: 11262008Abstract: A quick connector coupling for making a severable connection with a male member and a female tube in a fluid line includes a connector body having a through bore for receiving the male member having a tubular shape sized to extend into the through bore of the connector body and having an upset, a retainer releasably securing the male member within the connector body, and a verifier including an antenna having a contact point and moving between a latched position and an unlatched position inside the connector body. The connector body includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) chip having a signal, which is enabled to read through the antenna when the contact point of the antenna contacts the RFID chip of the connector body in the latched position of the verifier.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: TI GROUP AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS, LLCInventors: Cody Rydin, Rick Pepe, David Gabbey, Alexis Rogers

Publication number: 20220010907Abstract: A quick connector coupling for making a severable connection with a male member and a female tube in a fluid line includes a connector body having a through bore for receiving the male member having a tubular shape sized to extend into the through bore of the connector body and having an upset, a retainer releasably securing the male member within the connector body, and a verifier including a conductor and moving between a verified position and an unverified position inside the connector body. The connector body includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) chip and an antenna electrically connected to the RFID chip to form a first circuit. In the unverified position of the verifier, the RFID chip electrically connected to the antenna sends an unverified signal through the antenna, and when the verifier is moved in the verified position, the RFID chip sends a verified signal through the antenna.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2021Publication date: January 13, 2022Applicant: TI GROUP AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS, LLCInventors: CODY RYDIN, RICK PEPE, DAVID GABBEY, ALEXIS ROGERS, SEONG-HWA CHOO, JEONG-HO LIM, DONG-HYEOK LEE
