Abstract:

The T-Point Lift is an electrically actuated, hydraulic, removable three-point hitch/lift assembly, which is installed on vehicles and equipment having a 2″ receiver mount, for quick installation and removal by one person. An inverted T shaped mounting frame with mounting points for an upper lift arm and two lower lift arms is inserted into a vehicles receiver. A hydraulic cylinder is mounted to the lift frame and upper lift arm which carries any attached load with assistance from attached lift links transferring the load to lower lift arms and providing sway control. An electrical power source is the only requirement for the attached hydraulic power pack with controls, thus not requiring any modification to the vehicle or equipment, to employ the apparatus in the manor for which it was designed, which tractor implements can be installed and used in accordance with their intended use up to and including category 1 three point implements.
