ABSTRACT:
An in-line quick connect multiple port fluid coupler is disclosed. The coupler has two identical coupling units. Each coupling unit has a body and an integral tongue. The tongue has a face which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the coupling unit. Fluid passages interconnect the body and the face of the tongue. Each coupling unit mates in a face-to-face relationship with the other coupling unit. Guide pins and seals are used to provide a fluid tight passage between the fluid passages and each opposing face. A sleeve circumscribes the mated coupling units to ensure a secure assembly.
