Abstract: A device for couplng a loader to a tractor, wherein the hitching frame (1) of the loader is provided with two coupling projections (11, 12) or sockets (21, 22) and a latch (14) biased by a spring (15), the coupling head (2) of the tractor is provided with two complementary coupling members and locking means (25, 25?), and said latch (14) engages said locking means (25, 25?) to lock the load onto the tractor. Said device is characterised in that the coupling head (2) includes pre-locking means (24, 24?) engageable by said latch (14) in a pre-locking position in which said projections (11, 12) and sockets (21, 22) are not fully coupled, and the spring (15) continually urges said latch (14) into the locking or pre-locking position.

Abstract: The invention concerns a system wherein the tool-bearing frame (1) and the tool (2) are each equipped with a multiple fluidic connection box, for example hydraulic provided with complementary male-female connecting members: each of said boxes is provided with a mobile and retractable protective cover, which normally covers the connecting members contained in said box. Said covers are arranged such that, in a first phase, the proper positioning of the tool-bearing-frame opposite the tool automatically causes the covers to retract, directly matching the fluidic connection members of the two boxes, so as to enable subsequently, in the second and third phases, the mechanical followed by the fluidic connection of the tool-bearing frame and the tool. The system protects the connecting members from the outside environment, while enabling easy and secure connection of the tool with the tool-bearing frame, without any risk of deterioration of the fluidic connectors.
