US Patent 11686414 Secure coupling for irrigation conduit and related methods

Improved couplings for conduit systems include a male coupling and a female coupling. The male coupling and female coupling may be mechanically engaged by inserting the male coupling into a receiver in the female coupling until fastening structures are aligned, and then rotating one or both of the male and female couplings until the fastening structures are overlapping and in interfacial engagement. The male and female couplings provide an efficient coupling solution for end-to-end conduit connection and also addresses a leakage problem in conventional irrigation pipe couplers.
