Abstract
A latchable line connector having a plug-in part for connecting at least one pressure or flow line, such as a fuel line, into a plug-in opening of a connector counterpart. Mechanical stress between the plug-in part and the connector counterpart is reduced by resilient latching arms that grip around and behind the plug-in part in the plugged-in position and thereby latch it relative to the connector counterpart in a manner secure against tilting and twisting.
