An apparatus for detachably connecting a tool component to a frame component which is in turn adapted to be adjustably mounted on a vehicle. One of the components is provided with notched members for receiving engagement members on the other component. Contact members on one component are arranged to compressively engage resiliently compressible pads on the other component during entry of the engagement members into the notched members.

Apparatus for detachably connecting a tool component to a vehicle, comprising: (a) a frame component; (b) link means connecting said frame component to the vehicle, said link means being adapted to accommodate adjustment of said frame component both vertically and angularly about a horizontal first axis; (c) first notch means fixedly mounted on one of said components and adapted to interengage with first engagement means on the other of said components; (d) second notch means adjustably mounted on one of said components and adapted to interengage with second engagement means on the other of said components; (e) first operating means for adjusting said second notch means between an unlocked position opening in a direction transverse to the opening direction of said first notch means, and a locked position opening in a direction opposite to that of said first notch means; (f) resiliently compressible pad means on one of said components adapted to be compressively engaged by contact means on the other of said components; and (g) second operating means operable in conjunction with vehicle movement for adjusting said frame component between: (i) a first position at which said components are spaced apart and said second notch means, in its unlocked position, is facing said second engagement means, thereby permitting the vehicle together with said frame component to be advanced towards said tool component until said second notch means and said second engagement means interengage with each other; and (ii) an elevated inclined second position at which the tool component is suspended on said frame component, with said first engagement means and said contact means being respectively aligned with and spaced below said first notch means and said resiliently compressible pad means; (h) said second notch means being operative upon adjustment to its locked position to cause movement of said components relative to each other, resulting in said first engagement means entering into interlocked engagement with said first notch means, with an accompanying compressive engagement of said contact means against said resiliently compressible pad means.
