Abstract
A connection system for interconnecting a heat exchanger and a pipe union, in which the pipe union (1) opening out into an opening (6) of the water box (2) of the heat exchanger is fixed firstly to a flexible pipe in permanent manner and secondly to the water box (2) by an easily released resilient connection. First axially projecting guide means (3) fixed to the pipe union (1) slide over second guide means (4) fixed to the inside surface of the water box (2), with said first and second means being configured to co-operate with each other. The invention is applicabhle to providing rapid action connections in the automobile industry.
