Abstract

The quick-connect device for the assembly of first and second fluidic transport elements includes a female connector and a male lock-ring connector configured to cooperate with the female connector and to relatively immobilize axially and in rotation the first element with the female connector. The male connector and the female connector respectively include first and second complementary positioning members configured to define a plurality of predefined discrete positions of assembly of the two male and female connectors, distributed angularly around the main axis, such that in any one of these angular positions, the two connectors are immobilized in rotation relative to one another.
