QUICK-RELEASE CONNECTOR MADE OF PLASTIC Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC F16L37/98 

FIELD: sanitary equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a quick-release connector, which is made of plastic, providing engagement with snapping of tubular male part (50) and female part (40, 40A) of fluid connection system. Connector has retainer (10) adapted for installation inside inlet part (41, 41A) of female part (40, 40A) and comprising first flexible elements (11) and second flexible elements (12) engaging with snapping, respectively, with male part (50) and female part (40, 40A). Each pair of adjacent in circumferential direction first flexible elements (11) and second flexible elements (12) is transversely connected by transverse link (13), which main longitudinal axis (L) passes directly from the first flexible element (11) to the second flexible element (12).

EFFECT: invention provides simplification of its structural installation and labor intensity of manufacturing, reduction of its axial length and increasing its resistance to destruction even during long-term operation and multiple operations with its flexible parts.
