ABSTRACT:
A set of garden or household implements comprises various different garden tool and/or household implement heads and at least one handle which can be selectively attached to any of the heads by means of a quick-connect coupling. The coupling comprises a coupling sleeve on the handle and a coupling pin on each head. The pin and the sleeve are so configured that the pin cannot turn or tilt in the sleeve. Abutments on the pin and the sleeve limit the extent to which the pin can be pushed in. Removal of the head from the handle is prevented by a releasable locking member, which is provided on the sleeve and co-operates with the pin. The locking member can comprise a transverse screw or a sneck which engages in a peripheral groove in the pin or a transverse latch which can engage in a transverse bore in the coupling pin.
