Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005038272
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A rotatable, pivotable connector (10) having a female end (14), a male end (12), a neck (16) joining the male and female ends, and an exterior retention element. The exterior retention element, such as, for example, a fitting (30), may limit expansion of the exterior of the female end. The exterior retention element may also take the form of a retainer or similar structure to retain a fitting about the exterior of the female end of the connector. Further, the connector may be hollow, thus defining a continuous passage within. Also, multiple connectors may be interconnected to form an arm.
