A connector has an outer surface for engagement by a hose, an inner through-bore for receiving a pipe nipple to be connected to the hose, and a sealing 0-ring for sealing the hose to the pipe nipple. Up to the final assembly of the connector, a plug is placed in the through-bore to hold the parts of the connector together and protect its interior against the entry of dirt. The plug has a shaft to be inserted into the through-bore and an end disc for closing an end of the through-bore. A plurality of connectors may be linked together to form a belt-type arrangement for handling in an automatic assembly line.

For producing a welded ring, a band of a length corresponding to the circumference of the ring is bent into a ring and its two ends are welded together. The band ends to be welded together have an offset in the circumferential direction of the ring, the offset lying in the plane of the band. The welding is performed from both lateral edges of the ring, from the outside to the inside up to the offset. Welding having an overall improved welding quality and a higher tensile strength is thus obtained.

The invention relates to a multi-crimp ring, the two circumferential edges (10) of which are flanged, which makes it possible to use thinner band thicknesses without the risk of buckling due to its greater intrinsic strength. The flanging consists in a widening of the diameter of the ring edges, wherein the regions (14) of the ring edges are bent outwards in a rounded manner and the edge surfaces (11) run at an angle of preferably 45° to the ring axis.

The flow path switching valve described here has a valve chamber (13) with three openings (21, 22, 23) and a valve piston (14) disposed in the valve chamber. The valve piston (14) has an elastic diaphragm (15) which cooperates sealingly at the circumference thereof with an inner circumferential wall (16) of the valve chamber (13). The valve piston (14) is movable between two end positions: in a first end position, it opens a flow path between the first opening (21) and the second opening (22) and blocks the third opening (23), and in the second end position, it blocks the first opening (21) and opens a flow path between the second opening (22) and the third opening (23). The valve chamber wall (16) is shaped such that the sealing contact between the diaphragm (15) and the inner wall is undone, at least around some of the circumference, in the last phase of the diaphragm movement into the first end position.
