ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a separable plug connection comprising a plug member provided with locking wedges and a wedge pusher. That plug connection may constitute a separate part or may be integrated or inserted in units of equipment, machine members etc. The plug connection is radially and axially locked and is non-positively retained and held against rotation. The housing member is provided with axially extending grooves, which receive ribs provided on the outside periphery of the plug member. Resiliently mounted locking members engage actuating forks of the wedge pusher and when the plug member has been forced into the housing snap into and are locked in an annular groove provided at the end of the grooves.
