Abstract: A quick coupler system for connecting a work tool to an arm of a work machine includes an adapter bracket with spaced apart side walls each having first and second adapter openings for receiving first and second bracket pins of a work tool bracket. The adapter bracket is disposed between bracket side walls of the work tool bracket when the adapter openings receiving the corresponding bracket pins. A coupler link having first and second coupler openings receives and engages the first and second bracket pins to connect the work tool to the arm, with the coupler link being disposed between the adapter side walls. The adapter bracket may have an adapter hydraulic interface block that is aligned with a coupler hydraulic interface block of the coupler link to form a fluid flow path for hydraulic fluid from a pressurize fluid source of the work machine to the work tool.

Abstract: Disclosed is a control system for depressurizing a work tool auxiliary circuit fluidly connected to a work tool coupled to a work machine by a quick coupler. The system may comprise a controller configured to: receive an unlock signal for the work tool; receive tool data associated with the work tool, the tool data including a target pressure for the work tool auxiliary circuit or a release duration for the relief valve; and in response to the unlock signal and the tool data, automatically actuate opening of the relief valve (a) for the release duration or (b) until the target pressure is reached in the work tool auxiliary circuit or machine-side circuit or (c) to reach and maintain the target pressure in the work tool auxiliary circuit or machine-side circuit.

Abstract: A pin grabber coupler and method for locking and unlocking a tool to a machine is disclosed. The pin grabber coupler may comprise a tertiary lock configured to pivot between an unlocked TL position and a locked TL position. The tertiary lock may include a first and second shoulders, a leg, a tab, a latch, a bias member and a detent. The bias member may be configured to exert a biasing force on the tertiary lock to urge the tertiary lock to the locked TL position. The detent may be configured to exert, when in a hold position, a holding force against the latch that is greater than the biasing force exerted by the bias member. When the detent is in a release position, the holding force applied by the detent against the latch is less than the biasing force applied by the bias member.
