TUBE CONNECTOR FOR FLOW LINES

摘要

A tube connector (1) includes a housing (2) with a through-going opening provided with a circular-shaped insert (6) provided on its outer circumference with one or more securing elements (8) with correspondingly shaped holding elements (7) on the housing's (2) inner circumference so that the insert (6) is secured in the housing's (2) opening. The insert (6) is further provided with a plurality of internal protrusions mounted at intervals along its circumference, which protrusions form a segmented conical inner portion (13) with tapering diameter circular gripper ring (12) mounted in the insert (6) has an outer conical surface (14) , substantially corresponds to the inner segmented conical portion (13) of the insert (6). The gripper ring (12) is split in its circular circumference so that the ring (12) may be compressed against the insert's (6) centre axis when the ring (12) moves along the insert's (6) inner conical portion (13).
