  • Patent number: 7618211
    Abstract: A manual locking assembly for a quick connect coupling includes a cylindrical male pin, a cylindrical sleeve-shaped female part, a rotatable key bolt, a locking bolt retainer, and a spring. The rotatable key bolt is axially arranged and central within the cylindrical sleeve-shaped female part, and has a quadrilateral locking block, a cylindrical guiding flange, and a cylindrical locking bolt having millings on opposite sides. The locking bolt retainer has a cylindrical body including a transversal hole having a radius that corresponds with an outer radius of the cylindrical locking bolt and a groove extending from the transversal hole that corresponds to the millings on the cylindrical locking bolt, a lower flange on a first side of the cylindrical body, and an upper flange located on a second side of the cylindrical body opposite to the first side, the upper flange having an inclined surface on an upper side of the upper flange.
