Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring and managing correct connection and operation of hydraulic lines which establish the connection of a primary hydraulic circuit of an operating machine (10) with a secondary hydraulic circuit of a utility (20), said apparatus further comprising a plurality of ports comprising a female coupling or cartridge (30a) on the machine side of said line, which are adapted to accommodate a male coupling (30b) provided on the utility side of said line for connection of each of said hydraulic lines, said apparatus further comprising means for uniquely identifying each of said male couplings (30b), and means (40a) for identification of each of said ports comprising said female couplings or cartridges (30a), and a data transmission module (60) provided on said machine (10) for identifying said male couplings (30b) as they are being moved toward said ports (30a) and for indicating to the user the correct port for hydraulic coupling between said male couplings (30b) and said female couplings or cartridges (30a), thereby guiding the user in the operations to connect lines, wherein said means (50b, 50b') for identifying each male coupling (30b) comprise at least one passive RFID TAG coupled to each of said male couplings (30b) of each line, and said means (40a) for identifying each of said ports comprising a female coupling or cartridge (30a) comprise at least one sensorized element (40a) coupled to each port and comprising at least one microswitch adapted to detect that correct connection of the male coupling (30b) into the female coupling (30a) has occurred, and at least one visual signaling means for indicating to the user which machine-side port has to be coupled to the male coupling (30b) of the utility, said data communication module (60) being placed on board said machine (10) and comprising one or more RFID antennas adapted to actuate said passive RFID TAGs (50b, 50b') coupled to each of said male couplings (30b) and to read the unique return ID signal emitted by each of said RFID TAGs, and at least one microprocessor in signal communication with said microswitch and with said visual signaling means, said apparatus further comprising a remote platform (80) and wherein said electronic device (70) is in data communication via a network connection with said remote platform (80) so that the data concerning couplings and connections of the various hydraulic lines of the operating machines (10) and of the various utilities (20) sent by said data communication module (60) to the management application (App) for mobile devices (70) may be used to monitor the modes of use of the entire hydraulic system.
