Fitting profiles have identifiable geometry on the male end, but care must be taken to use a compatible coupler. Couplers use springs and balls to lock mating nipples into place. A seal is effected using O-rings along the shaft of the nipple or by compression by the tip.
There are many variations in the design of quick couplers. The initial divergence is between those that can pick up any of a range of buckets and attachments by clamping onto the mounting pins for the attachment (known as "pin grabbers" or "pin couplers") and those that work only with buckets and attachments designed to suit that quick coupler (known as "dedicated").
For hoses and piping, a quick connect fitting, also called a push fitting or Quick Connect Coupling, is a coupling used to provide a fast, make-or-break connection of gas or liquid transfer lines.
IEC 60309 (formerly IEC 309 and CEE 17, also published by CENELEC as EN 60309) is a series of international standards from the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for "plugs, socket-outlets and couplers for industrial purposes".
AAR couplers on 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) metre gauge [7] and some passenger (FIAT 7131 DMUs) and freight rolling stock on standard and broad gauge. Small knuckle coupler with slot in knuckle for link and pin couplers on 750 mm (2 ft 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) Scharfenberg-type semi-automatic couplers on modern EMUs, DMUs and some passenger rolling ...
The link-and-pin coupler consisted of a tube-like body that received an oblong link. During coupling, a rail worker had to stand between the cars as they came together and guide the link into the coupler pocket. Once the cars were joined, the employee inserted a pin into a hole a few inches from the end of the tube to hold the link in place.
4.0L was produced by Ford Cologne Germany (like the unrelated and the all-new metric Taurus/Sable FWD 3.0 V6). Both were put in the North American Ranger, Aerostar, Explorer platforms. The 4.0L bellhousing and the 3.0L bellhousings "MAY" interchange, but they do not interchange with the previous Cologne engines.
