The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied bythe inventors: “According to the art a coupling system for irri gation units are known. For example there isa so called Gardena plug-in couplin g system, in which a fluid-conducting line coupling can be realized byplugging two coupling pieces. One of the two coupling pieces forming the line coupling co ntains a couplingnipple pointing away from a base body in the flow direction, w hich surrounds an outlet channel and isenclosed by a coupling sleeve of the sec ond coupling piece. WO 2010/127815 A1 discloses a couplingpiece having a main b ody and a coupling nipple directed away from said main body in a predetermined direction of flow. The coupling nipple surrounds an outlet duct containing a long itudinal axis, and havinga sealing body arranged in the main body upstream of t he coupling nipple within the main body. Saidsealing body prevents a flow of wa ter into the outlet duct in a blocking position by means of a blockingseal and being displaceable counter to the direction of flow from the blocking position i nto a passageposition when a coupling sleeve is plugged onto the coupling nippl e in a plugging direction via couplingstructures. Upstream of the coupling nipp le, the main body is radially widened in the form of an annularsurface extendin g transversely to the plugging direction, and in that the coupling structures co ntainat least one coupling element which is passed in a sealed manner through a n aperture, directed in theplugging direction, in the annular surface and is di splaceable in the plugging direction and coupled tothe displacement of the seal ing body. In the blocking position of the sealing body, the coupling elementpro jects beyond the annular surface. When the coupling sleeve is plugged on, the co upling element isinsertable further into the main body by the coupling sleeve. Thus, the coupling piece of WO 2010/127815A1 comprises a valve, which is opened , when the coupling piece is coupled with the complementarycoupling sleeve.
