Releasable connector in leashes for domestic animal, safety line or the like

摘要

A releasable connector in leashes for domestic animals, safety lines or the like, comprising a coupling portion (12) provided with a spherical, drop-shaped or similarly shaped head member (14), and a holding portion (10) adapted to be coupled to the holding portion. In order to provide for easier handling and for improving the safeness against unintentional release of the connector, the holding portion (10) includes a lateral inlet (16) in the form of a guiding channel (24) extending approximately normal to the direction of pull (Z) and being slotted at least at the coupling portion side and conformed in configuration to the head member (14) of the coupling portion (12). A lock bolt (18) extends into the guiding channel (24), which lock bolt is adapted to be moved in a plane extending approximately in parallel with the direction of pull (Z).
