Abstract
A connection device serves for connecting a first tube end, which can be connected to a vacuum pump, to a second tube end which can be connected to a chamber to be evacuated. To this end, the connection element has a tube element for fluidically connecting the vacuum pump to the chamber to be evacuated. The tube element is connected on each side via a connection element to the respective tube end. At least one of the two connection elements is configured here in such a way that it is exclusively suitable for transmitting torques. Furthermore, a decoupling element is provided for mechanically decoupling the at least one connection element, which is exclusively suitable for transmitting torques, from the corresponding tube end.
