ABSTRACT:
A tubing connection construction includes a fitting member having one end portion received in a passage defined in an apparatus. A flange portion is formed on a periphery of the end portion of the fitting member and protrudes radially and outwardly therefrom. An annular recess is defined in the periphery of the end portion of the fitting member and communicates with a slot defined in the apparatus, which communicates with the passage. A positioning member is received in the slot and includes a substantially C-shaped leg portion fitted in the annular recess of the fitting member such that the flange portion is stopped by the C-shaped leg portion, thereby fixing the fitting member to the apparatus.
