<p>A connecting system for a pressurised gas bottle (5) comprises a check valve (4) fitted in the neck (15) of the gas bottle (5) having a connecting aperture for the gas outlet and capable of being actuated from the outside via a valve push-rod movable along a central axis (6) and a connector (2) which can be releasably engaged and gastightly connected with the check valve (4) and containing means for actuating the valve push-rod. In such a connecting sytem, the easy and rapid change or connection of the bottle is facilitated and great security against incorrect operation and failures, and safe handling and storage of the bottles, is ensured since the gas bottle (5) with the check valve (4) and the connector (2) can be mechanically coupled in a pivot axis (34) transverse to and outside the central axis (6) and, when coupled, can be secured in the coupled position by being pivoted in relation to one another about the pivot axis (34).</p> |
