Abstract: A fluid coupling includes a socket and a plug and is used to connect two fluid hoses, whereby the plug has a neck that can be inserted into the socket with an annular groove for engaging with a locking element. The locking element includes a push-button that can be activated in a radial manner from the exterior of the socket and from which two flexible fork arms protrude that engage into a hub of the socket and have diagonal ramp surfaces on the two opposing inner faces of the fork arms, whereby the diagonal ramp surfaces engage around the neck in the area of the annular groove around a part of the circumference of the neck. The annular groove is delimited by two opposing and diverging diagonal surfaces.

Abstract: A water refilling plug for automatically filling battery cells has a cylindrical plug housing that includes a connector fitting for water delivery into a housing, as well as a valve, actuated by a float, having an annular valve body and a conical valve seat. The valve is arranged between an inflow channel and an outflow channel leading into the battery cell. In accordance with the invention, swirl-generating deflection channels are arranged between the annular inflow channel and the conical valve seat in a pattern distributed over a circumference in the plug.

Abstract: The invention relates to a water filling connector for automatically filling battery cells, having a cylindrical connector housing (12) comprising a connector fitting (26) for water inlet into the housing (12) and a valve actuated by a swimmer and having a ring-shaped valve body (38) and a conical valve seat (42) disposed between an inlet channel (34) and an outlet channel (68) leading into the battery cell. Swirl-generating deflection channels (64) are disposed around the circumference between the ring-shaped inlet channel (34) and the conical valve set (42).
