Abstract
A plug connection with an automatically actuated outlet shut-off includes a cylindrical receptacle housing with an opening for inserting a tubular plug-in part that is provided with a circumferential holding rib which can be engaged in a locking element arranged in the inserting region of the receptacle housing. Ring seals for sealing the annular gap between the inner wall of the receptacle housing and the inserted plug-in part are also arranged in the receptacle housing. A valve body is provided in the flow-through chamber of the receptacle housing, wherein the valve body automatically seals the flow-through chamber and is pressed into the open position away from the end face of the plug-in part against the force of a coil spring when the plug-in part is inserted. The valve body is in the form of a sleeve that is closed by an end wall on its end that faces away from the inserting opening and penetrated by a radial rib. Four axially parallel ribs that are uniformly distributed over the circumference are arranged on the rear side of the end wall, such that the ribs are guided in a longitudinally displaceable fashion in corresponding longitudinal grooves in the inner wall of the receptacle housing.
