Abstract: An adapter coupler (1) for adapting couplings of different design, wherein the adapter coupler (1) comprises a first connecting mechanism for releasably connecting the adapter coupler (1) to a first coupling, a second connecting mechanism for releasably connecting the adapter coupler (1) to the drawhook (50) of a second coupling, and a coupler housing (2) for connecting the first connecting mechanism to the second connecting mechanism, and wherein the second connecting mechanism comprises a tension yoke (8) with which to engage with the drawhook (50) of the second coupling.

Abstract: A coupler head of a coupling device for mechanically connecting two units is provided. The coupler head comprises at least one coupler lock to form a mechanical connection with a coupler lock of a counter-coupler head, and an electrical contact coupling for the coupling of at least one electrical line between the coupler head and the counter-coupler head. The coupler head further comprises a base body to which the coupler lock and the electrical contact coupling are mounted, so as to enable the coupler head to be universally applicable for a plurality of applications and in particular for it to be operated as low-maintenance as possible. A coupler head housing accommodates the base body with the at least one coupler lock and electrical contact coupling. The base body further comprises a linkage to which a coupling shaft is articulated so as to be pivotable in a horizontal and/or vertical plane.

Abstract: A central buffer coupling having a coupling head, a coupling shaft and a bearing block attachable to the front face of a car body. The coupling shaft includes a front shaft component supporting the coupling head and a rear shaft component coupled to the bearing block so as to be horizontally pivotable which are pivotable in the horizontal plane relative one another about a rotational axis defined by a connecting pin, and the central buffer coupling further includes a pivoting mechanism to pivot the front shaft component relative the rear shaft component. The pivoting mechanism includes a slotted gate fixedly attached to one of the two shaft components and having a sliding guide, a cam disc rotatably mounted about the rotational axis defined by the connecting pin and having a cam disc guide, and a bolt connecting the one to the other of the two shaft components.
