GAS SOCKET
The invention relates to a gas socket which enables a gas connector plug to be quickly connected and disconnected. When the gas connector plug is not connected, the gas socket provides protection against interventions and penetrations of foreign bodies. The gas socket is also suitable for use with a flush-mounted installation. The inventive gas socket comprises a cap (18) which seals the connection opening (20) of the output connector element (3) by means of a cover (21) when the gas connector plug (24) is removed. The cover (21) comprises a locking member (29). Said locking member (29) can be unlocked by a first introductory movement of the gas connector plug (24) into an introduction opening (23), the aforementioned locking member (29) of the cover (21) being adapted to the gas connector plug.The cover (21) releases the connection opening (20) of the output connector element (3) for the connection of the gas connector plug (24) by means of at least one other movement of the gas connector plug (24).
