Abstract
A receiving part of a fluid plug-in coupling is provided, including a socket housing having a plug-in opening for a plug part and having a retaining device for releasably fixing the plugged-in plug part in place. The retaining device has a retaining element mounted in the socket housing and radially elastically deformable retaining sections for latching engagement behind a radial retaining step of the plug part. A release element is secured in an axially displaceable manner relative to the socket housing via latching means. The release element engages by means of an inner release section the plug-in opening and acts against the retaining sections of the retaining element. A securing element is provided such that the release element is blocked in a secured position agains a release movement and is unblocked in an unblocked position for a release movement. The securing element and the release element are preferably rotatable about the coupling axis relative to each other between the secured position and the unblocked position.
