Abstract
A quick coupling implement for an aerial device has a base, a boom assembly, the implement, and an adapter. The adapter is emplaced on a portion of the boom assembly to allow for quickly coupling the implement. The adapter comprises a boom-raise-interfacing segment with at least one opening for securing to the boom raise of the boom assembly via a retaining pin. The adapter also comprises an implement-interfacing segment that presents a complementary shape to an adapter-receptor segment of the implement. The implement may be a utility platform for supporting a utility worker.
