Probe seal having pressure-energized sealing elements for female hydraulic coupling member

A probe seal for a female hydraulic coupling member comprising:

• a generally ring-shaped polymer body having a first end, an opposing second end, a generally cylindrical outer surface and a generally cylindrical, imperforate inner surface;
• an annular chamber within the ring-shaped body between the inner surface and the outer surface;
• a fluid passageway connecting the annular chamber with the outer surface such that the annular chamber together with the fluid passageway is generally T-shaped in cross section and define a pair of axial projections which are urged in an outward, radial direction by fluid pressure within the annular chamber;
• at least one radial sealing projection extending from the outer surface;
• and,
• a pair of radial sealing projections extending from the inner surface with each such sealing projection extending from the inner surface disposed in general radial alignment with a branch of the T-shaped annular chamber.
