Abstract
The liner stop assembly includes a flow sleeve stop, a liner stop, an adjuster, a lock plate and a bolt. The flow sleeve stop and liner stop have radial projections which axially butt one another upon insertion of the liner into the flow sleeve. The flow sleeve stop and liner stop have tapered surfaces which, in assembly, converge in a downstream axial direction for receiving complementary tapered surfaces on the adjuster. The adjuster includes lateral extensions for coarsely aligning the adjuster between the flow sleeve and liner stops. When bolt is screw-threaded in the tapped bore of the flow sleeve stop, the wedging action of the tapered surfaces of the adjuster and the flow sleeve and liner stops serves to radially adjust the liner relative to the flow sleeve.
