  • Patent number: 10899182
    Abstract: In accordance with one series of embodiments of the current disclosure, there is provided a tractor hitch system for hitching a tractor to a trailing implement. The tractor hitch system comprises a base, an actuator, a pin and a lever arm. The base is configured to be mountable on a drawbar of the tractor. The actuator is movable between a first position and a second position. The lever arm is attached to the base, connected to the actuator, and attached to the pin. The attachment of the lever arm to the pin allows the pin to pivot and move laterally with respect to the lever arm such that, when the actuator is in the first position, the pin engages the drawbar so as to be able to couple the tractor to the trailing implement, and when the actuator is in the second position, the pin is disengaged from the drawbar so that the tractor is not coupled to the trailing implement.
