A system includes a flow control assembly having a first portion configured to be positioned within and coupled to a first passageway formed in a wellhead component and a second portion configured to be coupled to a second passageway formed in a body that is configured to be coupled to the wellhead component. An actuator of the second portion is configured to drive a valve member of the first portion into an open position to enable fluid flow across the flow control assembly.

A coupling device is provided for mounting on a bib of a faucet to releasably secure a hose or some other component to the bib. The coupling device includes an engagement surface, a gasket ring, a clamp assembly and a locking assembly. The coupling device is configured so that the clamp assembly can be actuated to mount the coupling device on the bib. The gasket ring is configured to be compressed between the engagement surface and the bib to enable liquid to flow from the bib into the coupling device and out of it into the hose or other component without leakage. The locking assembly is configured to lock the coupling device on the bib, but is releasable when desired to dismount the coupling device from the bib.

A coupler for a fluid transport system comprising a handle being continuous around the coupler, the coupler having a first end and a second end, the handle having a non-constant radius with respect to the central longitudinal axis of the coupler, the handle comprising a plurality of regions being proximal the first end of the coupler, and a plurality of regions being distal the first end of the coupler.

To provide a safety joint capable of preventing moment generated by swinging of a filling hose and surely separating the safety joint to a hydrogen filling apparatus side member and a vehicle side member when a tensile force more or equal to a predetermined value is applied to the filling hose. The safety joint 100 according to the present invention includes a plug (10: vehicle side member) with a cylindrical shape in which a passage (1A: in-plug passage) is formed, a socket (20) in which a passage (21A: in-socket passage) continuing to the passage (1A) in the plug (10) is formed, and a shut off valve mounted on the passage (21A: in-socket passage) in the socket (20), the shut off valve opening when the plug (10) being inserted into the socket (20) and closing when the plug (10) being disconnected therefrom, wherein central axes of the passages of the plug and the socket do not form a straight line (but those are orthogonal with each other for instance), a filling hose (61) is connected to the plug (10), and a hose guide (70, 70A) for limiting movement of the filling hose (61) at a position separated from the plug (10).

A probe seal for a female hydraulic coupling member has both internal and external pressure-energized seals. The outer wall or opposing ends of the seal have one or more pressure-energized seals for sealing between the body of the probe seal and the body of a coupling member in which the probe seal is installed. Annular, L-shaped, T-shaped or angled grooves in the inner wall of the seal form cavities and sealing projections that can be urged in an inward, radial direction by fluid pressure within an associated cavity to increase the sealing effectiveness between the body of the seal and the probe of a male hydraulic coupling member inserted in the receiving chamber of the female coupling member.

A first tubular and a second tubular define a fluid passage. A feather is positioned within the first tubular. The feather is configured to axially translate towards the second tubular and pivot towards a center of the first tubular. The feather includes a hinge on a pivoting end. A first end of a spring is coupled to the feather and a second end of the spring is coupled to the first tubular. The spring is loaded to actuate a movement of the feather between an open position and a closed position. A trigger is positioned between the first tubular and the second tubular to provide an interference with the feather. The interference retains the feather in the open position when the first tubular and second tubular are coupled.
