The invention relates to a releasable plug connection, for inserting a nozzle tube (2) into a jack (1), consisting of a hollow cylinder (3) and a sleeve (6) displaceably mounted on said cylinder. To this end, the nozzle tube (2) is provided with radially spring-loaded lugs (20), the free ends of which are in contact with a locking surface (10a). The locking surface is formed on a flange (10) of the sleeve (6) which can slide relative to the hollow cylinder (3) against the force of a spring (24). For releasing the connection, the sleeve (6) is pushed back so that the lugs (20) slide along a truncated cone (14) on the hollow cylinder (3) and are pushed inwardly in the process. As a result, the ends of the lugs (20) slide from the locking surface (10a). As soon as the lug ends have left the locking surface (10a), the nozzle tube (2) shoots from the jack (1) under the action of the spring (24).
A releasable plug connection, which is either in a connected or released state, comprising two components namely a jack (1) and a plug, wherein in the connected state the plug is inserted into the jack (1) and held in it by a latch, for the purpose of which the latch is connected with one of the components in a radially spring loaded manner and contacts a locking surface (10a) formed on the other component, as a result of which sliding back of the plug out of the jack (1) is prevented, wherein the locking surface (10a) extends largely radially to the longitudinal axis of the jack (1) and plug, and that the other component consists of two sections that can be displaced relative to each other to a limited extent in axial direction, wherein the locking surface (10a) is formed on one of the sections and the other section has a contact point for the latch which is arranged so that on pushing together of the sections against the force of a spring (24) acting in axial direction, the latch contacts the contact point and is pushed from the locking surface (10a) in radial direction by sliding on the contact point.
An ear syringe nozzle tube comprising a distal end for the discharge of liquid into an ear and a proximal end for connection to an ear syringe device, wherein the nozzle tube has at least two lugs (20) standing out from the nozzle tube (2) at an acute angle towards the distal end which yield in radial direction under spring load.
A dental water jet nozzle tube comprising a distal end for the discharge of liquid into a mouth and a proximal end for connection to a dental water jet device, wherein the nozzle tube has at least two lugs (20) standing out from the nozzle tube (2) at an acute angle towards the distal end which yield in radial direction under spring load.
A jack for a plug connection, comprising a hollow cylinder (3) and a sleeve (6) that can slide on the cylinder against a stop (9), wherein the stop (9) defines the greatest longitudinal extension of the jack (1) and the sleeve (6) has an inwardly directed flange (10), the side of which facing the hollow cylinder (3) defines a locking surface (10a), and that the inner diameter of the flange (10) is greater than the inner diameter of the hollow cylinder (3).
