Abstract:
A fluid coupler includes a socket including a socket body defining a receptacle for receiving a plug. A snap ring is mounted within the receptacle for retaining the plug within the receptacle. The snap ring is moveable between a constricted state in which the snap ring is adapted to retain the plug within the receptacle and an expanded state in which the plug is removeable from the receptacle. A release sleeve is mounted over the socket body. The release sleeve is moveable between a non-actuated position and an actuated position. The release sleeve is configured to move the snap ring from the constricted state to the expanded state when moved from the non-actuated position to the actuated position.
