Publication number: 20240284816Abstract: A coupling arrangement for an agricultural tractor includes a drawbar having a first bar section, which is mounted in a longitudinally movable manner in a holder for attachment to an underside of a differential housing of the agricultural tractor, and a second bar section, which is situated opposite the first bar section and is guided in a longitudinally movable manner within adjacent upper and lower supporting cheeks of a coupling carrier plate provided for attachment to the rear of the agricultural tractor. The drawbar is movable into a plurality of coupling positions by longitudinal movement and can be locked therein with respect to the coupling carrier plate via at least one securing element.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2024Publication date: August 29, 2024Inventors: CHRISTIAN ECKSTEIN, MARTIN HEITLINGER, BENJAMIN SPOHN, MARIO PATINO

Publication number: 20240244986Abstract: A coupling device for a lower link of a three-point linkage, including a coupling body with a catch hook for receiving a coupling element along a defined receiving direction, the coupling element being designed to complement a fastening region of the catch hook, and also including a locking mechanism with a locking latch, which is urged by a spring force into a locking position, in which the catch hook is locked, in which case a coupling element to be received by the fastening region can be arrested in the catch hook. The locking latch here is longitudinally displaceably mounted in a sliding guide, provided on the coupling body, such that it can be deflected out of the locking position exclusively perpendicularly to the defined receiving direction, thereby clearing the fastening region.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2022Publication date: July 25, 2024Inventors: MARTIN HEITLINGER, MARIO PATINO

Patent number: 11858545Abstract: A vehicle having a support structure includes a front structural section for receiving a front axle assembly and a rear structural section opposite the front structural section in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A support part is arranged between the front structural section and the rear structural section as part of the support structure. The support part has a support wall which runs in a self-contained manner in the circumferential direction transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2019Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: DEERE & COMPANYInventors: Mario Patino, Mattias Lang, Curtis P. Thoreson, Norbert Groessbrink

Patent number: 11399452Abstract: A mounting bracket for mounting a front three-point hitch on a tractor includes a linking part for articulated mounting of the front three-point hitch, a connecting part for coupling the linking part to a support structure of the tractor, and a first contact region defined on the linking part and a second contact region defined on the connecting part. The first contact region interacts with the second contact region for coupling the linking part to the connecting part. The first contact region and the second contact region are separably clamped to one another in a coupling position. The linking part is selectively disposable in one of a plurality of coupling positions relative to the connecting part.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2019Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: DEERE & COMPANYInventors: Mario Patino, Martin Heitlinger

Patent number: 11357154Abstract: A power lift for an agricultural tractor includes a supporting structure configured to be mounted on the agricultural tractor. A left lower link, a right lower link, and an upper link are coupled in a pivotally movable manner, wherein the left and the right lower links and the upper link include coupling elements for attachment of an agricultural attachment. The left and the right lower links are rotatably coupled to one another via a lifting shaft, the lifting shaft being aligned with a lower link pivot axis. The left and the right lower links are pivotable by an actuating element which runs between at least one of the lower links and a support point of the supporting structure jointly about the lower link pivot axis in relation to the supporting structure.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2019Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: DEERE & COMPANYInventors: Mario Patino, Martin Heitlinger

Patent number: 7530592Abstract: A towing mechanism includes a pair of brackets for receiving a drawbar therebetween, and a locking device. A towing bolt is received by locating bores in the brackets. The locking device includes a locking pin which is axially slidable in a pin bore in a component. The locking device is mounted on the upper bracket so that, in a locked condition, the locking pin projects out of the bore and prevents axial movement of the towing bolt. A blocking member at least partially covers the pin bore and prevents the extraneous material from contacting the locking pin, in order to reduce the likelihood of an unintentional release of the towing bolt.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2007Date of Patent: May 12, 2009Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventors: Martin Heitlinger, Mario Patino
