ABSTRACT:
A connector including a male member and a female member adapted to mate therewith. The female member is hollow and has an annulus defining a plane substantially perpendicular to its axis. There is a substantially cylindrical hollow nozzle within the annulus and the nozzle has an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the annulus, thus defining a space therebetween. A hollow portion extends away from the male member and is being substantially coaxial with the nozzle. The male member is generally cylindrical and hollow. It is provided with a collar having an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the annulus and an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the nozzle, whereby the collar occupies the space. The male and female members, when connected, form a passage for flow of fluids therethrough.
