Trennbare Kupplungsanordnung

摘要

A releasable coupling assembly Ä10Ü for connecting two members is provided that includes a first member Ä12Ü having an exterior surface Ä16Ü with a receiving portion and a second Ä12Ü member having a hose adapter Ä24Ü and a sleeve valve Ä26Ü positioned within the adapter Ä24Ü. The sleeve valve Ä26Ü is in slidable communication with the adapter Ä24Ü and includes at least one socket aperture Ä28Ü that includes a mating ball Ä30Ü that contacts at least one longitudinal groove Ä32Ü in the adapter Ä24Ü that includes a first Ä34Ü and expanded Ä36Ü radial portion. When the members are secured together, the ball Ä30Ü of the sleeve valve Ä26Ü is retained in the receiving formation Ä20Ü of the first member Ä12Ü by the first radial portion Ä34Ü of the longitudinal groove Ä32Ü of the hose adapter Ä24Ü. When the members are pulled apart for disconnection, the sleeve valve Ä26Ü initially remains engaged with the first member Ä12Ü until the ball Ä30Ü comes into contact with the expanded radial portion Ä36Ü of the longitudinal groove Ä32Ü of the hose adapter Ä24Ü and the ball Ä30Ü departs the receiving formation Ä20Ü of the first member Ä12Ü, such that the valve Ä26Ü is completely or almost completely closed prior to disconnection of the members.
