The present invention relates to a connection system with coaxial end sections (1, 2) of two fluid lines that are to be connected, which on each end section (1, 2) have an encircling retaining rib (3, 4), with a sleeve (5) that incorporates an axial slot (6), a flexible joint (7) that is disposed opposite the (6) slot, and on its inner side catches (10) to snap behind the retaining ribs (3, 4) in grooves (3a, 4a,), the joint being so elastically flexible that it forces the parts of the sleeve that are adjacent to the slot toward one another. In order to simplify manipulation during the coupling process and permit greater freedom of choice in the selection of materials in a connection system of this type, the end sections (1, 2) can be introduced into the sleeve (5) axially, when the slot (6) has been expanded elastically by the retaining ribs (3, 4) sliding beneath the catches (10) to the point that they snap behind the catches (10), the width of the catches (10) corresponding to the width of the grooves (3a, 4a). In this solution, the connection system can be manipulated as simply as a plug- in type coupling in order to connect the end sections (1, 2) of the fluid lines. In addition, the sleeve (5) can be pre-installed on one of the end sections.
