ABSTRACT:
A quick-disconnect coupling for fixing tools or the like to a powered arm including a base, mounting structure on the base for affixing the same to an arm, a pair of hooks having oppositely facing openings, one of the hooks being immovably mounted on the base and the other being movably mounted on the base, and a latch movably mounted on the base and engageable with the movably mounted hook for preventing movement thereof. Interengaging cam surfaces are disposed on the movably mounted hook and the latch whereby the hook may cam the latch aside while moving to a latched position and there are also provided interengaging surfaces on the movably mounted hook and the latch so that forces applied to the latch by the hook, when the hook is latched, will not tend to move the latch to release the hook.
