Abstract
This fluidic coupling (R) comprises a male element (A) comprising a male body (), a valve () and a spring () pushing the valve () back toward its closed position, and a female element (B) having a sealing gasket (), a piston (), a slide valve () mounted around the piston () between a closed position, in which the sealing gasket () cooperates with the slide valve () and the slide valve () cooperates sealably with the piston (), and a retracted open position. In a coupling phase, the male body () pushes the slide valve () back toward its open position and the piston () pushes the valve () back toward its open position. The piston () is mounted with the possibility of movement between a rear position and a forward position. The female element (B) comprises a lever () for converting the movement of the slide valve () into movement of the piston (). During the coupling, from the closed position of the slide valve () to an offset position of the slide valve (), in which the male body () cooperates with the sealing gasket () of the female body (), the lever () is disengaged from the slide valve () and/or the piston (), and the piston () is in the rear position. From the offset position of the slide valve () to the open position of the slide valve (), the lever () is engaged with the slide valve () and with the piston (), and moves the piston () toward its forward position. In the coupled configuration, the piston () is in its forward position and extends partially in the male body (), a fluid passage being formed around the piston ().
