も良く、身体を傷つける虞れもない。Since the pipe connecting device according to the present invention has the above structure, it has the following effects. Since the female connector and the male connector have the same structure, it is not necessary to select and insert the male and female connectors when fitting and inserting the male and female connectors separately on the pipe end. It will be easier. Moreover, the outer shape of the connecting hand of both connecting tools is formed into a curved surface, and the female connecting hand hemisphere part is fitted into the covering part of the male connecting hand, and the male connecting hand hemisphere part is inserted into the covering part of the female connecting hand. The appearance is good and there is no danger of damaging the body.

得る。Since the male / female connector can be rotated within a range of about 90 degrees about the stopper as a support shaft, when inserting the male / female connector,
If the stoppers are oriented vertically up and down, and if the cover is selected to be offset left or right, not only can the pipes be connected to a range of 90 degrees left and right in the horizontal state, but also the stoppers can be horizontally oriented horizontally. And if you select the cover part up or down,
You can connect up to a range of degrees. That is, the pipes can be connected in an arbitrary direction by arbitrarily changing the axial support direction of the male and female connectors.
In addition, since the male and female connectors have the same structure and can be used in common, the male and female connectors can be provided at a lower cost than the conventional connector having a different structure.
