The invention relates to a quick coupling, made up of a male element and a female element. The male element includes a cylindrical male body, defining a longitudinal cavity, a distal mouth, and a valve movable axially inside the cavity between a forward position in which the valve closes off the mouth and a withdrawn position in which the valve does not close off the mouth. The female element includes a cylindrical female body, defining a longitudinal cavity and a distal mouth, a push-piece, and a slide valve. The male body or the push-piece delimits a fluid passage channel connecting an inside of the cavity to the distal mouth, and the passage channel, emerging inside the cavity of the male element or the female element, fits inside a circle, the diameter of which is respectively larger or smaller than that of the first and second sealing gaskets.

Quick coupling for the detachable connection of two pipes through which a pressurized fluid flows

The invention relates to a quick coupling for the detachable connection of two pipes through which a pressurized fluid flows, the quick coupling made up of a male element and a female element. The male element includes a male cylindrical body defining a cavity, a valve movable axially within the cavity, and a first sealing gasket. The female element includes a female cylindrical body defining a cavity, a slide valve movable axially within the cavity, a second sealing gasket, and a peripheral groove that houses either the first or second sealing gasket. A proximal or distal edge of the peripheral groove extends between two planes that are perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the male or female element, respectively between a proximal plane and a distal plane, which are offset relative to one another along the longitudinal axis.
