Abstract

Disclosed is a coupling device (0) for coupling together first and second vehicles (100, 200), the coupling device (0) comprising at least one coupling mechanism (40) and at least one first outer part (21), the coupling device (0) being designed to selectively adopt a coupled configuration and an uncoupled configuration. The coupling device (0) also comprises a first leg (5) that can move relative to the coupling mechanism (40) between a use position of the first leg (5) and a storage position of the first leg (5) and a first movement control mechanism (6) of the first leg (5) designed to control the movement of this first leg (5) from its use position to its storage position when the coupling device (0) switches from its uncoupled configuration to its coupled configuration.

Abstract

Hitching device (40) designed to be fitted on a scooter (200) provided with at least one motor-driven wheel (201) and with a plate (202), this hitching device (40) having a hitching mechanism having a first end stop (41) and a first hook (42), which define a first receiving space (43), this first hook (42) being movable between first and second positions: - in its first position, the first receiving space (43) being configured to receive a crossbar (21) and prevent the removal of this bar; and - in its second position, the first receiving space (43) allowing said crossbar (21) to be moved towards an external zone (Z). The hitching device (40) has a first guide surface (60) tangent to said first receiving space (43) and disposed so as to extend parallel to said scooter (200) platform.

Abstract

The invention relates to a connection system (0) for connecting a wheelchair (100) to a motorised scooter (200). The system (0) comprises: - a first attachment interface (1a) for gripping a first tubular portion of the wheelchair (102a); - a second attachment interface (1b) for gripping a second tubular portion (102b) of the wheelchair; a detachable structure (2) which is provided with a transverse bar (21); the connection system (0) being configured to selectively assume: - a connection configuration, in which the detachable structure (2) is joined to the first and second attachment interfaces (1a, 1b); and - a release configuration, in which the detachable structure (2) is detached from each of the first and second attachment interfaces (1a, 1b).
