The valve open-closed state indicating member has a valve open state indicating part and a valve closed state indicating part and is displaced in response to the displacement of the valve member. When a male coupling member is connected to the female coupling member, and when the valve member is in an open position, the valve open state indicating part is visible from the outside of the housing through a window of the housing, whereas, when the valve member is in a closed position, the valve closed state indicating part is visible from the outside of the housing through the window.
