ABSTRACT:
A vehicle coupler in which at least one cable coupling box is mounted on the coupling head for cooperation with a like coupling box on another coupling head to effect coupling together of conduits, such as air and electric conduits, when the vehicle is coupled to another vehicle. The coupling head has guide rods extending in coupling direction on which the coupling box is slidably mounted. The connectors which connect the coupling box to the rods include elastic inserts permitting movement of the coupling box in the lateral direction of the guide rods to provide for alignment of the coupling box with the coupling box with which it cooperates.
