ABSTRACT:
A connector for joining two tubes together. A female connector with a cavity made of resilient material such that when the male and female connectors are joined the leakage from the tube ends is minimal. In addition, the cavity made of resilient material resilient will only loosely hold onto the outside surface of the male connector such that the two connectors will disconnect quickly and automatically when a relatively low tensional or shearing force is applied across the joined connector. Valve means are also provided to prevent leakage out of both connectors when the connectors are disconnected.
