Female connector for accepting a male connector having a retaining external annular rim, a slot including two parallel lateral grooves and the slot opening at least at one of its ends forming a mouth of the housing, the female connector including a locking slide distinct from the body, movable between a locking position and an unlocking position, the locking slide including a locking plate and an actuating knob formed integrally with the plate, with a retaining portion belonging to the locking plate to come into abutment against the retaining outer annular rim, the locking slide including at least one flexible tab formed integrally, returning the slide toward the first position, the flexible tab pressing on each side of the mouth in the axial direction X so that the return force is balanced about X and creates no torque that could have a tendency to cause the locking plate to jam.
