  • Publication number: 20060208485
    Abstract: The connection element includes a tubular coupling which is connected on the inside at one end to a hose which has, on its side facing away from the hose , at least one clearance, of which the lateral edges running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tubular coupling run, in the cross section of the respective clearance, so as to widen conically with respect to one another from the inside outward. The tubular coupling has at the other end, on the outside, at least one first projection which bears against one end face of a snap ring which is arranged between the at least one projection and the one end of the coupling, around the coupling on the outside.
