发明名称 Positive locking connector for vehicle component
摘要 A vehicle connector assembly includes a positive lock feature that allows a hose to be quickly and easily attached to a vehicle component such as an intake manifold or air induction component. The component includes a projection that extends outwardly from a main body to a distal end. A locking cap is installed over the projection and cooperates with an alignment feature on the projection such that the cap does not separate from the projection prior to installation of the hose. An end of the hose is slidably installed within the locking cap and over the projection. The locking cap is then rotated from an unlocked position to a locked position to prevent linear movement of the hose relative to the projection. The locking cap is made from a resilient material and provides a serviceable connection.
