"Quick" connector vaccum hose adapter for Biltema P 330 Thickness planer
byoxseth87THIS IS NOT FULLY TESTED, CAN NOT GARANTEE SUCCESS.
Continuation of my "Quick" connectos I went for the screw solution becuse my hose is (too) heavy, I think magnet or clips would break the connection fairly easy, and I wanted a easy solution with few parts and entirely 3D-printed. My vaccum hose is attached to a 3D-printed cyclone.
Why a split nut? I plan to make more adapters in the future and did not want to be constraied by the diameter of the hose and threads, I could make the hosecoupler bigger but I think that will make it unessesery bulky. This way I can add a bigger adapter then the size of the nut.
Prints are not oriented becuse you have to orient them depending on your printer. I printed everything standing on end. The thread part of the model do not need support, But the overhangs need some, I recomend painting support on.
I used regular PLA it works just fine, but I would recomend something stronger for prolonged use.
Assembly: Put the adapter part between the halfnuts, glue the 2 halfnuts together, be careful not to glue the tool part to the nut.
Just press the adapter with the nut on the provided extractor, press the hosecoupler on the hose, screw the 2 together and Wham bam! "Quick" connector upgrade achieved.
May fit other equipment, the adapter side has Ø53 innside diameter.
