<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multitubular joint which can be installed in a small space.SOLUTION: A multitubular joint 10 connects a plurality of plugs 13 and a socket 17. The socket and the plugs are interconnected when a socket support member 20 and a plug member support member 80 are moved closer to each other to a position where they are engaged with each other while the plug and the socket face to each other to be matched. A turning engagement member 40 turnably mounted on the socket support member turns around the outer peripheral surface of the plug support member to be engaged with the plug support member and holds both the support members 20, 80 so as not to separate from each other. The turning engagement member 40 is held by a turn prevention member 60 mounted on the socket support member so as to be displaceable in a connection direction so as not to turn at a predetermined turning position. When the socket support member and the plug support member are moved closer toward the engagement position, the turn prevention member is pushed by the plug support member to release the engagement with the turn engagement member, and thereby the turn engagement member is allowed to turn.</p> |
