Abstract: A hose coupling comprising a coupling body and coupling means secured to the ends of a hose. A circumferential groove formed in the coupling means cooperate with depressible spring pressed latches pivotally mounted on the coupling body. A hook portion is provided on the said latches to engage with the said groove to retain the parts of the coupling in assembled relationship. To disassemble the coupled parts, the spring pressed latches are depressed thereby lifting the hook from the groove thus enabling the coupled parts to be disconnected from one another.
