Abstract

A connector having a base element with a through channel fluidically connected to an end of the base element formed as a sleeve section. A clamp cage is inserted into a receptacle channel of the sleeve section and axially held in a positive-locking manner. Two retaining arms of a retaining clip project into a through opening of the clamp cage in a rest state and are elastically expandable radially to the through opening into a tension state. The retaining clip is displaceable between an insertion position where the retaining arms are expandable into their tension state and a blocking position where they are blocked against expansion. The retaining clip has two bearing arms which are radially elastic, fix the clamp cage in the receptacle channel in a positive-locking manner and, in a rest state, project into the through opening and are radially elastically expandable into a tension state.
