A subsea control pod connector for joining conical interfaces (12, 18) having fluid openings (14, 20). A latch rod (54) carries a spherical ball (56) for vertical axial movement. A plurality of outwardly extending lock dogs (65) each has a spherical inner surface (66) sliding on the ball and an annular groove (72) around the outer surface. The groove surface transmits locking force to shoulder surfaces 68 and 70 located on the members to be joined. |
