Multi-line connection quick multi-coupling

A multi-coupling system comprising:

• a first multi-coupling component including a plurality of individual first fluid couplers;
• and
• a second multi-coupling component including a plurality of individual second fluid couplers, the multi-coupling system being configurable between a connected and locked state and a disconnected state;
• wherein:
• in the connected and locked state at least a portion of the first fluid couplers respectively are fluidly connected to the second fluid couplers, and in the disconnected state the first fluid couplers and the second fluid couplers are disconnected, the multi-coupling system being further configurable in a connected and unlocked state;
• and
• the second multi-coupling component comprises:
• a locking pin assembly that is attached to the handle assembly, the locking pin assembly including a locking pin that is moveable in an axial direction between an extended position and a retracted position;
• and
• a housing that houses the plurality of individual second fluid couplers, the housing further including a locking pin hole;
• wherein:
• in the connected and locked state the locking pin is in the extended position in which a shaft end of the locking pin is located in the locking pin hole, thereby preventing rotation of the handle assembly;
• the locking pin assembly is manipulated by a user to move the locking pin from the extended position to the retracted position out from the locking pin hole to configure the multi-coupling system in the connected and unlocked state in which the handle assembly is rotatable to reconfigure the multi-coupling system to the disconnected state;
• and
• the locking pin assembly is configured to automatically retain the locking pin in the retracted position when the multi-coupling system is in the connected and unlocked state.

A second multi-coupling component for connecting to a first multi-coupling component in a multi-coupling system, the second multi-coupling component comprising:

• a plurality of individual second fluid couplers;
• a handle assembly that is rotatable to configure the multi-coupling system between a disconnected state and a connected and locked state a locking pin assembly that is attached to the handle assembly, the locking pin assembly including a locking pin that is moveable in an axial direction between an extended position and a retracted position;
• and
• a housing that houses the plurality of individual second fluid couplers, the housing further including a locking pin hole;
• wherein:
• in the connected and locked state the locking pin is in the extended position in which a shaft end of the locking pin is located in the locking pin hole, thereby preventing rotation of the handle assembly;
• the locking pin assembly is manipulated by a user to move the locking pin from the extended position to the retracted position out from the locking pin hole to configure the multi-coupling system in a connected and unlocked state in which the handle assembly is rotatable to reconfigure the multi-coupling system to the disconnected state;
• and
• the locking pin assembly is configured to automatically retain the locking pin in the retracted position when the multi-coupling system is in the connected and unlocked state.
