This fluid coupling (R) comprises a female element (A) and a male element (B) able to be inserted into the female element, the female element comprising a main body (2) that defines a main inner channel (24), a plunger (64) and a slide valve (10), movable longitudinally in the main inner channel around the plunger between a closed configuration and an open configuration of the main inner channel. The male element comprises a complementary body (30) defining a complementary inner channel (302) and a valve (304) movable in the complementary inner channel between a closed off position and a separated position. In an uncoupled configuration of the fluid coupling, the slide valve is in the closed configuration and cooperates radially tightly with the main body and the valve is in the closed position. In a coupled configuration of the fluid coupling, the valve is pushed back in the separated position by the plunger and the complementary body cooperates with the slide valve. According to the invention, the slide valve comprises an outer slide valve (102) and an inner slide valve (104), which are movable relative to one another. In the closed configuration, the outer slide valve is in a forward position and the inner slide valve is in a forward position in which it is in tight contact with the outer slide valve and with the plunger. In the open configuration, the outer slide valve is in a withdrawn position and the inner slide valve is in an offset position relative to the outer slide valve. The female element comprises at least one gear reduction member (20). During a coupling phase, the gear reduction member (20) is disengaged from at least one among a front stop surface (63) arranged on the main body, a rear stop surface (124) arranged on the outer slide valve and a front stop surface (126) arranged on the inner slide valve. From the intermediate position to the withdrawn position of the outer slide valve, the gear reduction member is engaged with the front stop surface of the main body, with the rear stop surface of the outer slide valve and with the front stop surface of the inner slide valve, each gear reduction member moving the inner slide valve toward its position.

Formation of a sterile connection includes inserting a first aseptic coupling device into a second aseptic coupling device while a locking ring of the first aseptic device is in an indexed initial position, rotating the locking ring to a secured position in which a compressive force is created and in which a first membrane from the first aseptic coupling device and a second membrane from the second aseptic coupling device can removed thereby resulting in a first a first sealing member of the first aseptic coupling device sealing with a second sealing member of the second aseptic coupling device to form a sterile fluid passageway.

Some fluid coupling devices described herein are configured for use in fluid systems. For example, some embodiments described in this document are single-use, aseptic fluid coupling devices that can be coupled to create a sterile flow path therethrough. Some such aseptic couplings are genderless couplings such that two identical aseptic couplings can be coupled together.
