Abstract

Fluid coupling formed as an assembly of a first body section having an end portion with studs and a second body section having an end portion configured to receive the end portion of the first body section and having grooves for receiving a corresponding one of the studs. Each of the grooves has an axial inlet section, and a blind section extending circumferentially from the inlet section to an end wall movable between a projecting position retaining the stud in the blind section and a retracted position allowing the stud to pass from the inlet to the blind section. Rotation of one of the body sections passes the studs in the retracted position of the groove end wall from the inlet section into the blind section, the studs being retained in the blind section in the projected position of the groove end wall to couple the body sections.
