Fluid coupling

A fluid coupling, comprising:

• a one-piece, integrally molded housing having a front end with a front opening, a back end with a back opening, and a side opening, the housing defining a first flow passage extending between the back opening and the side opening, the housing defining a central passage extending longitudinally between the front opening and the back opening;
• a lever actuator rotatably mounted on the housing having an opening corresponding to the side opening of the housing, and rotatable between a first position in which the first flow passage is open and a second position in which the first flow passage is closed;
• and
• a poppet member disposed within the central passage;
• the poppet member having a head portion, a body portion and a base portion, the head portion having a sealing surface that matches a sealing member proximate the front opening of the housing to form a fluid-tight seal when the poppet member is extended, the body portion defining a second flow passage, the base portion defining at least one flow opening radially outward from the body portion which is in fluid communication with the second flow passage;
• the poppet member is actuatable between an extended configuration in which the second flow passage is closed and a retracted configuration in which the second flow passage is open;
• wherein the base portion of the poppet member has at least one retention member to match a retention surface downstream of the side opening of the housing to retain the poppet member therein;
• wherein the housing further includes at least one stop member to limit the movement of the lever actuator between the first position and the second position.
