  • Apparatus to couple with and decouple from a male coupler
    Patent number: 9933098
    Abstract: Described herein is a method and apparatus for providing an easy-flow flushing system to flushing out an engine and an out-drive. The easy-flow flushing system may include a cap with a tubular member, a capping member, and a sleeve. The tubular member may include a first outer surface, an inner surface, a coil circumscribing the tubular member to urge a sleeve to a closed configuration, an opening along the first outer surface, and a ball bearing seated in the opening. The capping member may be coupled to the tubular member and the capping member can include a capping member end and a sealing ring disposed along a second outer surface. The sleeve may be coupled to the tubular member. The sleeve may include an inner surface, where the sleeve is formed and shaped to slide along a portion of the first outer surface of the tubular member.
