Abstract
An easy to use system for connecting a bottle-type, gas containing pressurized vessel to a gas-withdrawal unit includes a valve assembly mounted on the pressurized vessel. A longitudinal axis of this valve assembly is substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the pressurized vessel resulting in an offset outlet design. The system also includes a housing with slotted links for guiding and holding the pressurized vessel as well as a centering device located in front of the gas-withdrawal unit for aiding alignment of an outlet of the valve assembly with an inlet port of the gas-withdrawal unit. A pivot lever is also provided to press and hold the outlet of the valve assembly gastight against the inlet port of the control unit.
