    Abstract: A multi-axis hose connector is provided. The assembly comprises a first and second hose connector end secured to a first and second housing. The housings and the inner end of each connector end support a captive ball therein, where the captive balls form a first and second ball joint that permits the connector ends to freely swivel and pivot relative to one another. Between the ball joints is an elongated tube member having open ends and an open interior. The tube member secures to the captive balls and aligns with an open conduit therethrough, while each of the housings and connector ends include an open interior. The open interior of the tube member, captive balls, housings, and end connectors form a continuous conduit through which fluid flows, despite the angular position of the assembly. In this way, the assembly provides a unique hose connector with several degrees of freedom.
