ABSTRACT:
A coupling unit of tubular overlapping conduits that are swivelly coupled to each other and are locked together by a spring loaded hook type rocker arm member centrally hinged upon a boss on the outer overlapping conduit. The rocker arm member has an inward hook at one end and an outward spring member guide push button on the opposite end. The hook end is normally maintained radially inward through an aperature in the outer conduit and the push button is normally positioned radially outward to protrude through an aperature in a protective cover closure bonnet. The hook end of the rocker arm member cooperates with a hook and groove formation on the inner conduit to lock the inner and outer conduits together.
