Claims40
A connecting element comprising:
- a first receiving space having a first valve element arranged therein, wherein the first valve element interrupts connection between a first joining element and the first receiving space and comprises an elastically deformable component, wherein the first valve element is configured to operate in two positions, wherein, in the first position, a fluidic connection between the first receiving space and the first joining element is interrupted by the first valve element and, in the second position, a fluidic connection between the first receiving space and the first joining element is opened by the first valve element,
- a second receiving space having a second valve element arranged therein, wherein the second valve element interrupts connection between a second joining element and the second receiving space and comprises an elastically deformable component, wherein the second valve element is configured to operate in two positions, wherein, in the first position, a fluidic connection between the second receiving space and the second joining element is interrupted by the second valve element and, in the second position, a fluidic connection between the second receiving space and the second joining element is opened by the second valve element.
