摘要

The invention relates to a front three-point lifting system (1) for frontal mounting onto the front of a vehicle (3) for receiving an accessory (5), wherein the accessory (5) can be removably mounted onto the lifting system (1) and driven by a bottom or rear power take-off (7) from the vehicle (3). The lifting system (1) comprises a supporting structure (9) as well as first and second lifting arms (15a, 15b) configured to receive the accessory (5) so as to lift and lower same, wherein ends (19a, 19b) of the lifting arms (15a, 15b) define the first and second attachment points (1a, 1b) of the lifting system (1), respectively. The lifting system (1) also comprises first and second lifting cylinders (21a, 21b) for driving the first and second lifting arms (15a, 15b), respectively. The lifting system (1) further comprises a third-point structure (27) for guiding the tilting of the accessory (5), the third-point structure (27) having a pair of ends (27a, 27b) that can be pivotably mounted on a forwardly arranged frontal portion (13) of the supporting structure (9) and a connection point (29) that can be removably connected onto the accessory (5), the connection point (29) defining the third attachment point (1c) of the lifting system (1) and the third-point structure (29) having a substantially U-shaped configuration so as to bring the connection point (29) thereof closer to the front of the vehicle (3).
