摘要： A fluid line quick connector has a retainer and a data matrix. The retainer is caused to move via a spigot upon insertion of the spigot within the fluid line quick connector. The data matrix is obstructed by the retainer when the spigot is not inserted in the fluid line quick connector, and is revealed when the spigot is inserted in the fluid line quick connector. When obstructed, a suitable reading and scanning of the data matrix cannot take place. And when revealed, in contrast, a suitable reading and scanning of the data matrix can occur.

摘要： A fluid line quick connector serves to join fluid lines together in vehicle applications, as well as in industrial-manufacturing, aircraft, marine, and agricultural applications, among other possibilities. The fluid line quick connector has a retainer assembly with a primary latch and a secondary latch. A data matrix is provided, and can be in the form of a quick response (QR) code, as an example. In use, when the secondary latch is in the open position, the data matrix is partially or more concealed. And when the secondary latch is in the closed position, the partial or more concealment is absent and the data matrix can be properly read.
