Patent ID: 8528943

Claim:
A combination comprising: a female coupling assembly comprising: a female coupling body, a flange, an extension, a latch plate and a latch pin, said female coupling body defining a female coupling fluid pathway, said extension forming a pair of female coupling assembly faces and a slot, a female coupling contact surface present on each of said female coupling assembly faces, said latch plate reciprocating within said slot and biased in a locked position, and said latch pin inserted into a latch pin bore and securing said latch plate in said slot; and a male coupling assembly defining a male coupling fluid pathway and comprising: a male coupling connector, a flange in mechanical communication with said male coupling connector, a male coupler extending from said flange and defining an abutting surface, and a non-rotational feature extending from said abutting surface, a pair of male coupling contact surfaces present on said non-rotational feature, said male coupling assembly mating to said female coupling assembly such that said female coupling fluid pathway is generally continuous with said male coupling fluid pathway, wherein said female coupling body accommodates said male coupler, wherein said non-rotational feature is disposed between said female coupling assembly faces such that said female coupling contact surfaces are proximate said male coupling contact surfaces and such that said male coupling assembly is rotationally limited with respect to said female coupling assembly.
