ABSTRACT:
A cam mechanism couples flat-faced, male and female couplers while minimizing the tendency of a pressurized fluid from exerting a force tending to resist the coupling. Internal valve assemblies within the couplers are maintained closed during the coupling. Once the coupling is complete, a control lever of the cam mechanism is actuated to open both valve assemblies to enable flow of the pressurized fluid.
