A coupling assembly having a female quick connector and a male member, wherein the male member has a latching element, a sealing section and a tip, wherein the sealing section is disposed between the latching element and the tip. The quick connector comprises a retainer having at least one retaining element. The male member is in a latching position if the latching element is latched onto the at least one retaining element. The quick connector comprises a verifier which is axially movable along a verification path, wherein the verification path comprises at least one locking position and at least one releasing position. The verifier in the locking position limits a movement of a section of the retainer in radial direction, so that the retainer is not actuatable in the locking position but actuatable in the releasing position of the verifier.

A gas supply connector of the present invention includes a gas supply member and two fasteners, wherein the gas supply member has a main body and multiple tubes; the fastener includes a buckling portion, a pressing portion and a neck portion. The pressing portion has an inner layer body and an outer layer body. The neck portion contracts from two lateral ends toward the center to form a tapered section, and the outer surface of the neck portion is arranged with multiple reinforcing ribs. The present invention through the neck portion reduces the force required for pressing the fastener to deform by the user, and through the reinforcing ribs increases the structural strength of the neck portion to prevent the fastener from breaking; in addition, the inner layer is made of plastic, and outer layer body is made of soft material, so as to improve the comfort of pressing fastener.

A coupling apparatus for a corrugated hose has: a receiving part for receiving an end portion of the corrugated hose; a locking part mounted for rotation on the receiving part for locking the corrugated hose in the receiving part, the locking part having an engagement element that is elastically deformable for form-fit engagement in a corrugation of the corrugated hose, and the engagement element, with the aid of inserting the end portion into the receiving part, being elastically deformable to latch into the corrugation in a form-fitting manner; and a transmission device which converts a rotational movement of the locking part with respect to the receiving part into a radial movement of the engagement element away from the end portion in order to bring the engagement element out of form-fit engagement with the corrugation so that the end portion can be pulled out of the receiving part.

A connection to releasably connect and disconnect to a pipe to a fitting provides a pipe fitting body for receiving a pipe and a retaining ring assembly located within the fitting body for retaining and releasing the pipe. The retaining ring assembly has axially extending inwardly angled resilient retaining tabs, each of which has a pipe retaining portion. When the pipe is inserted into the fitting body to an inserted position, the pipe retaining portions engage an indentation on the pipe to retain the pipe in the inserted position. Relative movement of the axially extending inwardly angled resilient retaining tabs with respect to the fitting body from the first locked position to a second unlocked position causes each axially extending inwardly angled resilient retaining tabs to disengage from the indentation on the pipe permitting removal of the pipe from the inserted position in the fitting body.

Some fluid coupling devices described herein are configured for use in fluid systems for purposes of providing a single-use, aseptic disconnection functionality that substantially prevents fluid spillage when being disconnected. In some embodiments, the coupling portions cannot be functionally reconnected to each other after being disconnected from each other.

A coupling device is provided for mounting on a bib of a faucet to releasably secure a hose or some other component to the bib. The coupling device includes an engagement surface, a gasket ring, a clamp assembly and a locking assembly. The coupling device is configured so that the clamp assembly can be actuated to mount the coupling device on the bib. The gasket ring is configured to be compressed between the engagement surface and the bib to enable liquid to flow from the bib into the coupling device and out of it into the hose or other component without leakage. The locking assembly is configured to lock the coupling device on the bib, but is releasable when desired to dismount the coupling device from the bib.

A connection to releasably connect and disconnect to a pipe to a fitting provides a pipe fitting body for receiving a pipe and a retaining ring located within the fitting body for retaining and releasing the pipe. The retaining ring has axially extending resilient retaining tabs, each of which has a radially inwardly extending portion for engaging the pipe, and, a radially outwardly extending portion which extends through corresponding radial openings in the fitting body. When the pipe is inserted into the fitting body to an inserted position and the retaining ring is in the first locked axial position, the radially inwardly extending portions engage and retain the pipe in the inserted position. Relative axial movement of the retaining ring with respect to the fitting body from the first locked axial position to a second unlocked axial position causes the radially outwardly extending portions to operatively engage the corresponding body radial openings to resiliently radially outwardly deform each resilient retaining tab thereby disengaging the radially inwardly extending portions from the pipe and permitting removal of the pipe from the inserted position.

The disclosure relates to a line connector that can be switched from a locking to an unlocking position solely by means of application of a linear force to a conduit (K) along an engagement axis (E). This solves the problem of how to operate such a line connector using only one hand. The connector has a mechanism configured so as to allow a cam body connected to the conduit (K) to occupy, at different rotational positions of the cam body, an unlocking position in which an attachment mechanism for the conduit (K) can be unlocked, and a locking position in which the attachment mechanism cannot be unlocked.
