A latch arrangement is provided to latch the locking sleeve in its release position during connection. The latch arrangement includes a stop (24) extending inwardly from the locking sleeve (14) and engageable with a stop (19) on the coupling sleeve (7) by tilting the locking sleeve on the coupling sleeve.
