2. Quick coupler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_coupler

   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").

3. Skid-steer loader - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid-steer_loader

   Skid steer loaders have very good maneuverability and traction but typically lower lift capacity than forklifts. Skid steer loaders excel at snow removal, especially in smaller parking lots where maneuverability around existing cars, light poles, and curbs is an issue with larger snow plows. Skid steers also have the ability to actually remove ...

4. Three-point hitch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_hitch

   In engineering terms, three-point attachment is the simplest and the only statically determinate way of rigidly joining two bodies. A three-point hitch attaches the implement to the tractor so that the orientation of the implement is fixed with respect to the tractor and the arm position of the hitch.

A loader is a heavy equipment machine used in construction to move or load materials such as soil, rock, sand, demolition debris, etc. into or onto another type of machinery (such as a dump truck, conveyor belt, feed-hopper, or railroad car).

6. Tractor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tractor

   The Ford N-series tractor helped revolutionize modern mechanized agriculture with its Ferguson three point hitch. A tractor is an engineering vehicle specifically designed to deliver a high tractive effort (or torque) at slow speeds, for the purposes of hauling a trailer or machinery such as that used in agriculture, mining or construction.

7. Tank steering systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_steering_systems

   This makes the tank slow down, even if the brake is not applied. If the tank is climbing, or in soft terrain, forward motion may stop entirely. Another disadvantage is that the brakes constantly dissipate vast amounts of heat when steering, which is very power-inefficient. The brakes suitable to steer a large vehicle are also impracticably ...
