Abstract
Connector () with locking components () about a peripheral section of the connector. The locking components extend in an axial direction engage with the connector () at a first end and engage with a connecting part () at an opposite locking end with a locking profile (). A radial locking movement of the locking end is provided by an axial movement of an actuation sleeve (). The locking components () are arranged to pivot in a substantially radial direction, about their section of engagement with the connector (), into and out of a locking position. The connector () comprises guiding plates () between the locking components () in the area of their locking ends. The guiding plates exhibit protective faces () that extend further radially inwards than the locking profile () of the locking components () when the latter are in the outwardly pivoted position.
