A fluid coupling for dispensing fluids, suitable for connecting a fitment disposed within a fluid source to a fluid receiving member. The fluid coupling includes a housing that defines a central passage between front and back openings and a first flow passage between the back and a side openings. A lever actuator is rotatably mounted on the housing to open/close the first flow passage. A poppet member is disposed within the central passage to define a second flow passage. The poppet member is actuatable between an extended configuration and a retracted configuration to close/open the second flow passage. The housing, the poppet member and the lever actuator are each one-piece integrally molded device.

1. A fluid coupling, comprising:a 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 cooperating with the housing to define a 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 poppet member is retained within the housing in a position downstream of the side opening.
