Abstract:
Disclosed is a fluid connection device (10) comprising a male connector (12) and a female connector (14), which are configured to be fitted one inside the other along an axis X so as to produce a fluid connection, and at least one annular seal (16) carried by one of the connectors and configured to engage with the other connector in order to ensure a seal between the connectors, the connectors being configured to be fastened to each other by resilient snap-fastening and to retain, after fastening, at least one degree of freedom with respect to each other, characterised in that the connectors are fastened together by a double fastening by resilient snap-fastening and by bayonet, this resilient snap-fastening being configured to be irreversible without deterioration so that, after fastening, the device cannot be dismantled without deterioration.
