Abstract
A coupler assembly () for a sub-sea connector including a coupler () having an abutment () radially outwardly from the coupler body (), and a radially inwardly extending groove () in the coupler body that is longitudinally spaced apart from the abutment. The abutment () is configured to engage the rear side of the plate when the coupler is inserted through a rearward opening in the plate. The groove () may be longitudinally spaced apart from the abutment such that, when the abutment is engaged with the rear of the plate, the groove is positioned forwardly of the front side of the plate sufficiently to allow a portion of a mounting ring () to be inserted into the groove with a portion of the mounting ring protruding radially outwardly from the body to engage an abutment surface at the front side of the plate, thereby restricting axial movement of the body relative to the plate.
