Abstract
A gas manifold assembly is disclosed which includes a manifold fitting connected to at least one gas valve. The manifold has an inlet fluid port which branches out into a delivery port. Each delivery port receives a protrusion from each valve which is in turn crimped together to form a collar. A stop offsets the valves from one another to improve manufacturability. One aspect of the invention includes flattening a portion of the protrusion that extends from the valve body in order to engage the fitting which creates an anti-rotation feature once the fitting is crimped. Another aspect of the invention provides seals between the fitting and the valve to increase joint integrity.
