Estimating the term…
A quick-coupling device comprises a support (18) on which the female member (20) is mounted such that it can move between a position of retaining the male member (14E) in a position fitted into the female member (20) and a position of releasing the male member (14E) from the female member (20). This device also comprises a lever (24) articulated to the support (18) between a rest position, separated from the female member (20), and a position of collaboration with the female member (20), allowing this female member (20) to be driven toward its position in which it releases the male member (14E). As a preference, the lever (24) comprises means (26) for guiding the male member (14E), these being positioned on this lever (24) in such a way as to encourage guidance of the male member (14E) to mate it with the female member (20) when the lever (24) is in the rest position.
A quick-coupling device for male (14E) and female (20) members, of the type comprising a support (18) on which the female member (20) is mounted such that it can move between a position of retaining the male member (14E) in a position fitted into the female member (20) and a position of releasing the male member (14E) from the female member (20), characterized in that it comprises a lever (24) articulated to the support (18) between a rest position, separated from the female member (20), and a position of collaboration with the female member (20), allowing this female member (20) to be driven toward its position in which it releases the male member (14E).
The device according to claim, characterized in that the means of elastically returning the lever (24) comprise a spring-forming member (42) working in compression, inserted between the lever (24) and the support (18).
