Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a quick connection system having two connectors.
  • a connector in particular an electrical connector, has a body to which at least one electrical conductor is attached.
  • an elastic lever in particular plastic, which is integral with the body of one of the connectors and which has at its free end, a tooth that snaps into a housing provided for this purpose in the body of the other connector.
  • connection system comprising such connectors is simple, it has some disadvantages.
  • the elastic lever may break and its replacement then requires the replacement of the entire connector.
  • the lever insofar as the lever is conventionally made of plastic that ages poorly, especially in harsh environments, and there is a risk of occurrence of a beginning of breakage of the lever due to internal tensions related to its construction .
  • the document EP-A-0 124 389 and the document DE-A-195 09 336 disclose rapid connection systems having a first connector with a lever and a second connector. But the hooking means between the lever and the second connector can be improved.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a quick connection system which does not have the drawbacks of the prior art and which in particular allows a fast and secure connection between two connectors.
  • a lever rotatably mounted on a shaft provides a quick connection system in which the durability of the lever is improved and the presence of threads allows a locking of the two connectors.
  • the second connector has a cylindrical portion whose axis is parallel to the connection direction and which carries said thread, and the dog takes the form of a hollow cylinder section whose axis is coaxial with the axis of rotation and which has on its inner face the threading.
  • the axis of each thread is parallel to the connection direction.
  • the quick connection system comprises removable fastening means which ensure the attachment of the lever on the body.
