Abstract
A connector coupling that has a body, an inner sleeve receiving the body, at least one self-locking pawl pivotably coupled to the inner sleeve that is configured to toggle between first and second positions in engagement with ratchet teeth of the body, and an outer sleeve surrounding the inner sleeve. The inner and outer sleeves are rotatable together in opposite mating and unmating directions. At least one spring member is attached to the outer sleeve and is configured to bias the pawl. When the pawl is in the first position engaging the ratchet teeth, the inner and outer sleeves are rotatable together in the mating direction only and prevented from rotating in the unmating direction and when the pawl is in the second position engaging the ratchet teeth, the inner and outer sleeves are rotatable together in the unmating direction only and prevented from rotating in the mating direction.
