Abstract

The invention relates to a snap-fitting pipe connecting device comprising a body adapted to be secured to the frame structure of a machine, a connecting member proper and a lock bolt, a fluid passage formed in the connecting member having a portion at right angles to the axis of said member. The body of the device constitutes a connecting or distributor box adapted to supply several different fluids. Each connecting member and the bore receiving same in said body comprise specific assembly means inherent thereto to prevent their accidental operation in another bore intended for other connecting members, and vice versa.
