Abstract: A coupler is provided which is mountable to a fitting of a breakaway coupling to facilitate assembly and disassembly of the coupling. The coupling has a first fitting and a second fitting which are held together by a ball in the first fitting which is received in a detent in the second fitting. The second fitting has an outer sleeve on which the detent is formed, and an inner sleeve slideable in the outer sleeve. A latch ring on the inner sleeve is alignable with the groove. A spring biases the inner sleeve and latch ring into a locking position in which the detent balls are urged into engagement with the detent to hold the two fittings together. The coupler includes an open ended housing having a side wall and an end wall. A plate, securable to the second fitting inner sleeve, is received in the coupler housing for axial movement. A cam on an outer surface of the housing end wall is connected to the plate by a rod.

Abstract: A hammer of the type having an impact tool driven by pressurized fluid has a hammer body portion with a closed rearward end and an open forward end and a piston longitudinally movably housed within the hammer body portion for striking a tool mounted at the open forward end of the hammer body portion, to thereby impact an object with the tool. The hammer has a fluid valve housed within the closed rearward end of the hammer body portion rearwardly of the piston and in communication with a source of high pressure fluid for driving the piston. The fluid valve has a valve body portion defining an interior chamber and a continuous exterior side wall, and a longitudinal opening in communication with the interior chamber. The valve body has a first body portion and second body portion which is identical to the first body portion and positioned longitudinally in relation thereto within the closed rearward end of the hammer body portion.
