BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    A. Field of the Invention 
         [0002]    This invention refers to a snap coupling system which allows instant coupling and safely linking of several coupling members to each other, wherein one or more retention tabs of one male tubular coupling member is temporally flexed to enter into guides or receiving cavities of another female tubular coupling member in which the tabs snaps are engaged; and more particularly is related to a special snap coupling system for joining at least one tubular member to another tubular or flat member in different coupling angles. 
         [0003]    B. Background of the Invention 
         [0004]    Snap joins are well known, these are commonly used to instantly coupling and securing a variety of tubular coupling members to each other, particularly of plastic materials because the plastic material is particularly suitable because of its flexibility which allows that coupling protrusions of the snap joints could be temporarily flexed to be introduced into a coupling receptacle of another tubular member. 
         [0005]    The advantage of the snap joint couplings, is that allow to couple two tubular coupling members without the necessity to use adhesives, bolts, screws, nor special tools to thermally join said tubular coupling members, for which it is necessary to use qualified manpower. 
         [0006]    For metallic or non-metallic coupling members, the thermal join by means of welding or fusion is the common way of permanently joining said metallic or non-metallic coupling members. Other joining methods of metallic or non-metallic coupling members involve the use of adhesives or the use of a third holding member to carry out the joining or holding of the elements to each other. 
         [0007]    The joining by means of welding, requires special tools as well as qualified manpower and safety equipment. Additionally, the application of welding requires counting with a power source of fuel, as well as measuring and calibration instruments for the materials in order to achieve a squaring of the join (use of levels and squares). 
         [0008]    In view of the former, applicants developed a snap coupling system special for metallic or non metallic coupling members requiring joining in diverse coupling angles, by which a tubular male coupling member having one o more retention tabs which are temporarily flexed to enter into guides or receiving cavities of another female coupling member either tubular or flat, in which the tabs snaps, by which two coupling members can be rapidly joined, without the necessity of qualified manpower. 
         [0009]    By means of the snap coupling system, of the present invention, two metallic or non metallic coupling members can be permanently or semi permanently joined in diverse coupling angles, without the necessity of use welding, adhesives, additional holding elements, instruments or tools, with which time is saving by avoiding the use of welding. Besides, as the snap coupling uses guides to carry out said coupling, the necessity to measure and size the coupling members is avoided in order to achieve a precise joining, with which one can obtain additional time saving in the joining of the metallic or non-metallic coupling members. 
         [0010]    Furthermore, as by means of the snap coupling system of the present invention, the coupling members can be easily assembled in the place wherein these will be used, it is not necessary to transport to the assembling place the assembled or welded pieces in structures which can be too large and difficult to transport. 
         [0011]    The snap coupling system of the present invention, promotes the design of individual pieces or coupling members to be assembled, which can be efficiently packed and translated. 
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0012]    It is therefore a main object of the present invention, to provide a snap coupling system between coupling members, special to join metallic or non-metallic coupling members, in diverse coupling angles, by which a tubular male coupling member having one or more retention tabs which are temporarily flexed to enter into slots or receiving cavities of another female coupling member either tubular or flat, in which the tabs snaps, by which two coupling members can be rapidly joined, without the necessity of qualified manpower. 
         [0013]    It is another main object of the present invention, to provide a snap coupling system between coupling members, of the above disclosed nature, by which two metallic or non-metallic coupling members can be permanently coupled in diverse coupling angles, without the necessity to use welding, additional holding elements or tools, by which time is saved because its welding is not necessary. 
         [0014]    It is still another main object of the present invention, to provide a snap coupling system between coupling members, of the above disclosed nature, in which the snap coupling provides guides in the coupling members, to carry out the coupling, with which the need of measuring and sizing the coupling members to get a precise coupling is avoided, obtaining additional saving of time in the coupling of the two coupling members. 
         [0015]    It is an additional object of the present invention, to provide a snap coupling system between coupling members, of the above disclosed nature, by which coupling members can be easily coupled in the place in which the they are going to be used, without the necessity to transport the coupling members already welded to the assembling place, in structures which can be too long and difficult to be transported. 
         [0016]    It is another additional object of the present invention, to provide a snap coupling system between coupling members, of the above disclosed nature, which promotes the design of individual coupling members which can be efficiently packed and translate. 
         [0017]    These and other objects and advantages of the snap coupling system between coupling members, of the present invention, will be clear enough to those persons having ordinary skill in the art, from the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention, which will be disclosed with reference to the accompanied drawings and which will be within the true scope of the present invention.

         [0055]    a tubular female coupling member  10  to be perpendicularly coupled to the a tubular male coupling member  1 , in a “T” fashion, of a quadrangular cross section, and having: a first end  11   a  and a second end  11   b ; a first side wall  12   a  and a second side wall  12   b , and an upper wall  13   a  and a lower wall  13   b , each of which having an inner wall and an outer wall; a first and a second parallel transversal slots  14   a ,  14   b , each of which extending vertically widthwise to the first side wall  12   a  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , as it is illustrated in  FIG. 1 , wherein the distance between the first and second slots  14   a  and  14   b  is similar to the distance existing between the first and second projections  5   a  and  5   b  of the tubular male coupling member  1 , as it is illustrated in  FIGS. 1 ,  1 B and  1 D; and 
         [0056]    wherein the first and second projections  5   a  and  5   b , with its respective retention tabs  6   a  andx  6   b , of the side walls  3   a  and  3   b  of the a tubular male coupling member  1 , passing in a guided way, momentarily flexing said tabs, trough the parallel first and second transversal slots  14   a  and  14   b  of the first side wall  12   a  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , en a perpendicular way, such that, when the tabs recover its position, its retention edge  7   a ,  7   b  (not illustrated) are locked at the inner surface of the first side wall  12   a  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , being retained both coupling members to each other. 
         [0057]    In the embodiment illustrated in  FIG. 1A , the retention tabs  6   a  and  6   b  (not illustrated) are flexed inwardly of the inner surface of the side walls  3   a  and  3   b  of the tubular male coupling member  1 , conversely to the embodiment illustrated in  FIG. 1 . 
         [0058]    In the embodiment of  FIG. 10 , the a tubular male coupling member, of a quadrangular cross section, comprising two retention tabs  6   a ,  6   b  (not illustrated) lifted in an angle directed outwardly, each of which placed in each of the respective side walls  3   a  and  3   b  of the first end  2   a  of the a tubular male coupling member  1 , and two retention tabs  6   c ,  6   d  (not illustrated) lifted also in an angle directed outwardly, placed at the same height of the tabs  6   a  and  6   b  (not illustrated), each of which placed in each of the respective upper and lower walls  4   a  and  4   b  in the same first end of the a tubular male coupling member  1 ; and; 
         [0059]    the tubular female coupling member  10 , of a quadrangular cross section, showing a quadrangular retention aperture  15  in an intermediate portion of the side wall  12   a  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , to be assembled with the a tubular male coupling member  1 , in a “T” fashion, constituting another preferred embodiment of the system of  FIG. 1 , according with the present invention. 
         [0060]    It should be understand that it is possible that some of the walls of the tubular male coupling member, could include only one tab lifted outwardly or inwardly; and the tubular female coupling member could include a single slot, to give a required assembling force. 
         [0061]    Or else, it is possible that one of the walls of the a tubular male coupling member, could include a first tab in one of its walls and a second tab in an opposite wall, placed opposite to the first tab, both lifted outwardly; and the tubular female coupling member could have a quadrangular aperture, to provide stronger assembling force. 
         [0062]    In all the preferred embodiments, the parallel transversal slots  14   a  and  14   b  ( FIG. 1 ) or the quadrangular aperture  15  ( FIG. 10 ) are made with means which allow high precision cuts such as a cutter by water jet cutting, oxygen cut, plasma cutting and laser cutting and precision die cut, to mention some of them, in order to obtain precision cuts allowing the insertion of the first and second projections  5   a  and  5   b  with very close tolerances which provides an optimum adjustment to the joining. 
         [0063]    Also, it should be understand that the projections and/or the tabs of the tubular male coupling member should be dimensioned such that they could enter into the slots or quadrangular apertures of the tubular female coupling member. 
         [0064]    The retention tabs  6   a  and  6   b  of the first and second projections  5   a  and  5   b  ( FIG. 1 ) are formed in said projections by means of a semi quadrangular cut which defines the form of each tab, and afterwards each tab  6   a  and  6   b  already formed, is flexed and lifted in an angle directed inwardly or outwardly regarding the plane of the corresponding projections  5   a  and  5   b , such that the retention edge  7   a  and  7   b  remain protruded outwardly or inwardly of the a tubular male coupling member  1 , so that they locked leaning on the inner edge of the slots  14   a  and  14   b  of the tubular female coupling member  10 . 
         [0065]    Additionally, each tab  6   a  and  6   b  can include a notch in a central portion of the end thereof in order to introduce a tool there through and facilitate flexing of the tab to a desired position. 
         [0066]    When both tubular male  1  and female  10  coupling members are to be joined, the first and second projections  6   a  and  6   b  of the a tubular male coupling member  1  are perpendicularly inserted into the first and second parallel slots  14   a ,  14   b  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , such that the retention tab  6   a ,  6   b  of each projection  5   a ,  5   b  are flexed staying in the same plane as the corresponding projection  5   a ,  5   b , until it completely enters perpendicularly into the parallel slots  14   a ,  14   b  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , and turns back by deflection to its lifted or sunken position, such that the retention edge  7   a ,  7   b  of each tab  6   a  and  6   b , form a padlock being locked on the inner surface of the inner surface of the first side wall  12   a  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 , as it is shown in  FIGS. 1 ,  1 A,  1 B,  10  and  1 D, avoiding that the projection  6   a ,  6   b  could slide outside of the slot  14   a ,  14   b  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 . 
         [0067]    Additionally that the projections  6   a ,  6   b  of the a tubular male coupling member  1  cannot be withdrawn from the a tubular female coupling member  10 , they also cannot turn because of the closed tolerance with which they were inserted, because there is no space of “backlash” between the projections  5   a  and  5   b , the parallel transversal slots  14   a ,  14   b  and the inner surface of the first side wall  12   a  of the a tubular female coupling member  10 . 
         [0068]    In this way, in the preferred embodiments of the invention, illustrated in  FIG. 1  and in  FIG. 1A , the a tubular male coupling member  1  stay joined by an end  2   a  to the a tubular female coupling member  10 , perpendicularly, forming a “T” as it is shown in  FIG. 1B  and  FIG. 1D . 
         [0069]    The joining between the a tubular male coupling member  1  and the a tubular female coupling member  10 , can or cannot be disassembled, depending of the position and angle of each tab in the moment of the insertion of the projections. In the preferred embodiments of the invention, the joining is permanent. 
         [0070]    In a second embodiment of the invention, illustrated in  FIG. 2 , the snap coupling system, between coupling members of a quadrangular cross section to be assembled in a “+” fashion, of the present invention, this comprises:
