Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002052185
Kind Code:

Abstract:
A quick connector includes a male component in the form of a spool fixedly mounted to a fluid conduit and a female component in the form of a housing (12) having a bore (28) open at one end for receiving the male component therein. A latch (22) is rotatably mountable on the spool (18) and is movable relative to a transverse channel in the female component between a first installed position with respect to the channel and a second latched position wherein the latch (22) engages opposed notches (38) in the channel to latch the spool in the housing. At least one latch clip is mountable on the latch and engageable with edges of the channel in the body to resist rotation of the latch from the latched position. An optional secondary latch clip (26) is engageable with the latch clip, the latch and the opposed side edges of the channel to further resist rotation of the latch from the latched position.
