ABSTRACT:
A connector adapted for use in connecting hoses, tubes, wire, cable and the like to transfer flows, currents or signals in electrical, optical, gaseous, liquid or solid flow applications. The connector may also be employed to make connections with stock such as threaded rods or machine screws. The connector employs a central conduit, of a selected shape, and one or more lever members disposed about the central conduit. An elastic binding is provided to provide force to bias the lever members into a gripping position, thereby securing a connection made when a male member is inserted into the central conduit. A user applies force to a releasing end of the lever members, thereby causing the gripping ends of the lever members to open and allowing the male member to be withdrawn or inserted.
