What's the proper technical name for the rubber pinch valves and needles
such as are used on basketballs? Someone is advocating using this
principle for carbonator caps, instead of ball-lock or other quick-connect
fittings, and I'm not sure what to call it.

I think I would call it a PITA to clean.
