Abstract
In the case of a plug connection for drilling or boring tubes, rods and worms for earth boring equipment with a male part and a female part, with a radial coupling for torque transfer and with an axial coupling having in the overlap zone of the male and female parts a locking device which can be introduced into an annulus for transferring axial forces, it is provided that the locking device is constructed as a multilink chain, which essentially extends around the entire annulus and which is introduced through the female part into the annulus via a single opening. This device provides a plug connection, which has a very simple construction and after extremely rapid installation is suitable for transferring very high forces.
