  • the "active" attachments / tools are currently usually hydraulically driven, for example by means of hydraulic cylinders or hydraulic motors, so that a hydraulic connection is also established or needs to be resolved.
  • the driver With the wheel loaders or excavators, telescopic loaders, etc. available on the market, the driver currently still has to get down to connect and disconnect this hydraulic connection / line and carry out the work manually. This is cumbersome and time-consuming for the driver and sometimes leads to injuries or faults in the hydraulics when getting in or out, e.g. due to rush or hectic pace.
  • Such construction vehicles or attachments are known to be exposed to very high and very rough requirements during operation.

  • pressurization for example from port X via an optional pressure accumulator F and an advantageous valve B, in particular a 2/2-way valve, and preferably via a pressure limiting element
  • Two advantageous sensors 31 or position sensors 31 detect the position or the end position of the respective piston / bolt 13, so that an (electrical) signal is advantageously generated or the locking is detected and the driver and / or an advantageous (electrical) control unit can be transmitted and, if necessary, signaled / displayed. This improves the operational reliability of the system.
  • the pressure accumulator F also serves to dampen the coupling process in an advantageous manner and, if necessary, to absorb excess oil when the oil volume in the components heats up, for example, especially when using or operating so-called "permanent oil consumers” such as snow blowers, road sweepers or like that.
  • the pressure limiting element D in particular the pressure shut-off valve, ensures that the piston (s) 13 does not guarantee locking with a maximum system pressure of e.g. approx. 200 bar, but for example (adjustable) with approx. 20 bar continuous pressure. This saves energy and protects the components. In addition, this also enables the hydraulic length compensation to be realized in an advantageous manner.
  • the unlocking or retraction of the piston / bolt 13 takes place in that the chambers 27 arranged at the end are advantageously subjected to pressure via the connection Y.
  • a safety system is preferably provided with which it is achieved / implemented that the coupling or locking of the tool holding device 9 is only possible when the hydraulic lines located inside the piston 13 are depressurized is feasible. This means that there is no or minimum pressure within the piston 13, but for moving or adjusting the intermediate chamber / space between the two opposing pistons 13 for moving / locking is pressurized.
  • the same is advantageously also implemented when the piston / bolt 13 is retracted or unlocked with respect to the chambers 27.
  • the advantage here is that the sensors 31 can detect the position of the piston (s) / bolt or their signal can advantageously be used for this purpose.
  • a second switch / button 30 which is widely spaced from the operating element 8.
  • the control unit or control is designed in such a way that both the switch / button 30 is actuated and a switch / button / bolt of the operating element 8 must also be actuated in order to enable the piston / bolt 13 to be moved, preferably both when locking / Extending and when unlocking / retracting the piston / bolt 13. This increases the operational safety of the mobile working machine 1 or the coupling and uncoupling of the working tool 2 and increases the service life of the (hydraulic) components.
