Abstract: Swimming pool cleaners, and associated hoses and connectors used with swimming pool cleaners may include a lock mechanism for releasably locking multiple hose segments or other components together in varying, discrete locked positions, such that a user can adjust the connection between the components to obtain a fluid tight joint. In these or other embodiments, one or both components can include an improved sealing structure that may facilitate forming such a fluid tight joint.
