Mini excavator quick hitch, also known as a quick coupler or quick change mechanism. As the name implies, it is a mechanical device installed on the front end of a small excavator for quickly replacing various working devices (such as buckets, breakers, wood grabs, rotary pile drivers, etc.). In modern construction, landscaping, and agriculture, small excavators are popular for their flexible and efficient operating capabilities. However, when working, excavators need to replace a series of excavator attachments, which reduces work efficiency. The emergence of small excavator quick couplers has completely changed this situation and has become an essential tool to improve the operating efficiency of excavators and expand their application areas.

Advantages of Mini Excavator Quick-Change Couplers:
- Greatly save time and improve work efficiency: Traditional manual replacement of working devices is time-consuming and laborious, while quick-change connectors can complete the switch in just a few seconds, greatly shortening the auxiliary work time and increasing the actual working time of the excavator, thereby significantly improving the overall work efficiency.
- Expand machine functions and achieve multi-purpose use of one machine: Quick-change connectors allow mini excavators to quickly switch various working devices, easily competent for digging, crushing, grabbing, drilling and other work tasks, truly realizing “one machine with multiple functions”, improving equipment utilization and reducing equipment purchase costs.
- Reduce the labor intensity of operators: Traditional manual replacement of working devices requires operators to perform heavy physical labor, especially in harsh environments, the labor intensity is higher. The application of quick-change connectors allows operators to complete the replacement of working devices in the cab, greatly reducing labor intensity and improving the working environment.
- Improve construction safety: Manual replacement of working devices has certain safety risks, especially when working at high altitude or in narrow spaces. The remote operation characteristics of quick-change connectors avoid operators working in dangerous areas and effectively improve construction safety.
- Reduce long-term operating costs: Improved efficiency, reduced labor costs, and increased equipment utilization will effectively reduce the long-term operating costs of the equipment.
Wide Application Areas of Mini Excavator Quick-Change Connectors:
- Municipal construction and road maintenance: In urban road maintenance, pipeline laying, greening projects and other projects, mini excavators need to frequently switch working devices such as buckets and breakers. Quick-change connectors can greatly improve work efficiency and accelerate project progress.
- Landscaping and landscape engineering: In landscaping projects, mini excavators are often used for digging tree pits, leveling land, loading and unloading seedlings and other operations. Quick-change connectors can easily and quickly switch buckets, wood grabbers, rotary drills and other devices to meet diverse work needs.
- House construction and interior decoration: In narrow construction sites, mini excavators play an important role in house foundation excavation, indoor demolition, material handling and other aspects with their flexibility advantages. Quick-change connectors enable them to quickly adapt to different work scenarios and improve interior decoration efficiency.
- Agricultural production and farmland water conservancy: In farmland water conservancy construction, orchard management, greenhouse construction and other fields, mini excavators can be used for digging ditches, leveling land, planting and fertilizing and other operations. Quick-change connectors can help mechanize and intelligentize agricultural production.
- Emergency rescue and post-disaster reconstruction: After natural disasters such as earthquakes and mudslides, mini excavators play an important role in debris clearing, road clearing, and material handling due to their flexibility and versatility. Quick-change connectors allow them to quickly switch between various rescue accessories, improve rescue efficiency, and buy precious time for disaster rescue.
Working Principle of Mini Excavator Quick-Change Connector:
- Unlocking: The operator controls the hydraulic system in the cab to drive the hydraulic cylinder on the quick-change connector to push the lock pin or wedge to move and release the locking state of the connection mechanism with the working device.
- Replacing the working device: Operate the excavator arm to align the connection mechanism of the working device to be replaced with the main frame of the quick-change connector so that the connection holes on the two are aligned.
- Locking: Operate the hydraulic system again to drive the hydraulic cylinder to move in the opposite direction, push the lock pin or wedge to reset, and firmly lock the connection mechanism of the working device on the main frame of the quick-change connector.
- Safety check: After completing the locking, the operator should conduct a safety check to ensure that the working device is reliably connected to avoid accidental detachment during operation.
