  • connection between connector 6 and connection socket 5, by manual displacement is as follows:
  • a second embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in figs. 9-14 .
  • the circulator is not shown, since it is analogous to the circulator of the preceding embodiment, which is similarly provided with a housing, in which mechanical and electric means are provided, for forcing fluid moving through conduits which are connected to a hydraulic heating system.

  • pawl 141 When connector 106 is in the insertion position, pawl 141 is backwardly deformed, due to bending tooth 140, which interferes with pawl 141; this takes places during rotation of connector 106 from insertion position towards locking position; reaching of locking position corresponds with pawl 141 passing end wall 142 of bending tooth 140 and snapping in, reaching a non deformed position. At this point, pawl 141 irreversibly engages end wall 142, in order to inhibit a (counterclockwise) return rotation of connector 106.

  • connection means and counter-means are integrally formed with connector 106 and connection socket 105, respectively, which are made of plastic material.
  • connection between connector 106 and connection socket 105 is achieved as follows:
  • the major advantage of the present invention is the fact that any movement of connector is inhibited, once the latter is fixed in the locking position, which is the final position, in which circulator may operate.
  • the present circulator is characterized by a greater sturdiness, since it lacks removable parts.
  • a long operating life of circulator may be expected, without the need of maintenance interventions.
