Abstract
A female rapid coupling element is adapted to receive a male element by insertion along a longitudinal axis (X-X') and includes at least one locking member which is movable along an oblique axis and has an end engageable in a groove of a male element. A head of the locking member is provided with at least one lug defining a first surface oriented towards the end and adapted to receive in sliding contact a corresponding surface of a first component. A sliding plane (P) between these surfaces is inclined at an angle of between approximately 75° and 105° with respect to the oblique axis of translation of the member. The head has two lugs arranged on either side of a rod or stem that extends between the end and the head.
