PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hose connector capable of connecting a hose with simple operation without the usage of a tool.SOLUTION: A hose connector 10 includes a connector body 12 and a lock member 14 externally fitted to the connector body 12. The hose connector 10 includes a cam mechanism for displacing the lock member 14 between a lock position and an unlocked position in an axial direction from the connector body 12 when the lock member 14 is turned to a prescribed direction around an axis with respect to the connector body 12. A hose is protruded into an annular clearance 80 between the connector body 12 and the lock member 14 in a state that the lock member 14 is in the unlocked position in combination with the connector body 12. When the lock member 14 is turned to be in the lock position, an annular diameter expansion portion 24 of the connector body 12 is close to an annular diameter contraction portion of the lock member 14, and therefore, the hose is fixed, and leakage of fluid flowing through the hose can be prevented. |
