  • Patent number: 11098830
    Abstract: A female coupling for a fluid quick connector and configured to be removably connected to a male coupling of the connector. The female coupling includes a valve assembly with a valve alternating between closed and open positions. The flow of a fluid from the female coupling towards the male coupling occurs in the open position. The female coupling includes a hollow body defining an inner cavity with a longitudinal axis for the flow of the fluid. The female valve assembly is housed in the inner cavity. The hollow body includes an end portion configured to be housed in a housing seat of an interface manifold. With the end portion in the housing seat, the tubular inner cavity is placed in fluid connection with at least one inner channel of the interface manifold. A constraint prevents rotation/translation of the end portion of the hollow body with respect to the housing seat.

  • Patent number: 10253912
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multi-coupling device (1) for the multiple quick connection of multiple hydraulic, electrical and/or pneumatic lines, with the possibility of individual manual couplings. The multi-coupling device (1) comprises a first plate (2) connectable to a vehicle or apparatus and supporting a plurality of couplings (3), each of said couplings being connectable to a hydraulic line and being adapted to being connected to corresponding couplings (41) of a second multi-coupling plate (40) for the connection of said hydraulic lines with a point of use, said device (1) being characterised in that at least one of said couplings (3) of said first plate (2) comprises connecting means (32, 33, 34, 35) for connecting and firmly retaining a single coupling (80) and disconnecting means (50) that can be manually operated by the user and are adapted to interact with said connecting means (32, 33, 34, 35) to allow the release of the individual coupling.

  • Publication number: 20170321836
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a female cartridge coupling of the type suitable for being inserted into a support block, or manifold, which is connectable to a pressurized oil circuit on board the machine. The female cartridge coupling in accordance with the present invention is characterized in that although it is configured to be inserted into a support block, it is suitable for being connected to Standard ISO 16028-compliant flush-face male couplings. The cartridge in accordance with the present invention further comprises a system for mechanically locking the decompression valve which allows the connection of a male coupling.

  • Patent number: 9726311
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multi-coupling device of the plate type for the simultaneous connection of a plurality of hydraulic, electric and pneumatic lines through quick couplings. The device according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises bayonet coupling means which allow the coupling of the two plates by means of the relative sliding of the mobile plate with respect to the fixed plate. By virtue of the presence of a dedicated hydraulic circuit which connects the female couplings of the fixed plate to one another, the multi-coupling device according to the present invention allows to separate the step of coupling of the plates from the step of hydraulic connection of the male and female couplings.
