A locking member is mounted to the housing to be able to move in the outer diameter direction by a tapered portion of the tubular body, when the tubular body is inserted. The housing is equipped with slits formed to pass a curved portion bent in the inner diameter direction disposed at a leading-end side of the locking member and to lock with the engagement portion of the tubular body mounted on the housing. A gap is disposed between the curved portion, and the end portion of the slit positioned at a side in an opposite direction to the leading-end side of the locking member, so that there is no contact while at least the locking member is moving.

A sprinkler with a push-in connection includes a sprinkler frame, an operating element, and a sealing cap. The sprinkler also includes one or more sealing gaskets and a retainer. Each such sealing gasket is located at least partially within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer is also at least partially located within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer connects to an internal bore of an outlet of a fluid supply conduit when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet. The one or more gaskets seal against the internal bore of the outlet when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet. The retainer is a spring mechanism so that the diameter of the retainer is reduced when the sprinkler is inserted into the internal bore of the outlet, and the retainer maintains pressure against the outlet internal bore.

An inflation pump connector includes a housing a sliding groove extending along a longitudinal axis and a pressing device slidably received in the sliding groove. The pressing device includes an airtight ring and a clamping member. The clamping member includes a base and a first claw. The first claw includes a first clamping arm, a first pressing portion, a second clamping arm, and a first hollow portion. The first clamping arm is connected to the base. The first pressing portion is connected to an end of the first clamping arm opposite to the base. The second clamping aim is connected to the first pressing portion. The first hollow portion is disposed between the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm. The first pressing portion is movable towards the longitudinal axis and to squeeze and deform the airtight ring.

An in-line quick connector has a female connector body arranged to receive a male connector body in an interior cavity. The male connector body includes a bifurcated tubular member that includes resilient latching arms co-operable to engage latching members located within the interior cavity of the female connector body. The male connector body and female connector body each further include a raised annular flange. Fixed key members located on the male connector body flange engage slots located on the female connector body flange.

The connector assembly includes a housing with an open bore which extends along an axis from an open first end to an open second end. The housing further includes a plurality of fingers that are spaced circumferentially from one another and are deflectable in a radial direction. At least one of the fingers has a plurality of teeth that are spaced axially from one another and extend into the open bore of the housing for biting into the first tube to resist pull out of the first tube from the open bore. Each of the teeth also extends by a height to a leading edge of an engagement surface which also includes an angled portion that extends at an angle relative to the axis. The axially spaced teeth have at least one of differing heights and differing angles of the angled portions.

The fluid connector assembly includes a connector body with an intermediate portion that extends between opposite end portions and has a first bore. The connector body has an elongated wall that projects outwardly from the intermediate portion and that surrounds a second bore which opens to the first bore. A flat tube, which is made of a second material that is different than the first material and has at least one fluid passage, is in fluid communication with the second bore of the connector body. The flat tube has generally flat side walls and is lockingly retained with the connector body by male and female locking structures that cooperate with one another.
