ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an adapter device 1 for a pump system. Due to the large number of various valve connections in use, employing a number of different pump systems with the corresponding valve connections is normally necessary. In order to use the largest number of valve connections possible with a single pump system, an adapter 1 is proposed which is characterized by a sealing element 24 that can be swiveled and/or shifted inside a housing 4 and moved through an external ring-shaped sleeve 12 which at least partially encloses the housing 4. Using the sealing element 24 which can be swiveled and shifted, the unneeded outlets in the pump system can be sealed and the desired outlet is simultaneously connected to the interior 6 of the pump system in such a way that an effective seal is created after insertion of the respective compressed-air connection.
