A mounting device for securing a grapple tooth bar to a loader bucket or fork includes at least one guide arm rotatably secured to the loader bucket or fork and having a distal end. A grapple tooth bar mounting bracket is attached to the distal end of the guide arm where the grapple tooth bar positions within the grapple tooth bar mounting bracket. The grapple tooth bar is removably secured to the grapple tooth bar mounting bracket with at least one securing mechanism such that mounting device can be mounted to loader buckets or forks of varying widths and can accept grapple tooth bars of various lengths.

Attachment device for a loader bucket or fork

A bucket for a front end loader is formed with a minimum number of parts so that it can easily be assembled held in fixtures and welded with robot welders. The bucket includes a unitary panel that forms a bottom wall and a rear wall, with a curved junction wall between the bottom and rear walls. An integral top rail is formed at the upper edge of the rear wall for structural integrity. The formed top rail is made with a sloped top rail wall to increase the visibility of a load in the bucket to an operator in a cab of a skid steer loader. The bucket walls and parts which weld thereon have locating tabs and mating edges for locating the parts automatically, so that they can be welded into position. The bucket is made with brackets for mounting it onto a quick attachment plate of a skid steer loader.

Loader bucket construction for robot assembly

A rotary mower is mounted onto a skid steer loader through a four bar linkage on each side of a mower housing. The linkage is arranged to pivot relative to a mounting bracket on the skid steer loader and relative to a mower housing, with differential lengths between upper and lower sets of links of the four bar linkage. The upper link on each side of the mower is slidably connected to the mower housing to permit the mower housing to pivot a limited amount about a traverse axis during normal operation. The links include stop members that engage when the mower is raised a selected amount to stop relative movement between the links and also to shut off power to the motor driving the mower. The forward end of the housing has depending chains mounted with a channel and providing a shield.

A seat assembly and a power machine includes a seat having a front portion, a back portion, and first and second side portions. A base plate supports the seat, and a hinge is pivotably connected between the first side portion of the seat and the base plate. The second side portion of the seat is connected to the base plate to allow limited movement of the second side portion of the seat relative to the base plate. A spring is coupled to the seat and to the base plate and urges the second side portion of the seat away from the base plate. A Hall effect sensor housing supports a Hall effect sensor and is operably mounted to one of the base plate and the seat. A magnet is operably mounted to another the base plate and the seat and is positioned to cooperate with the Hall effect sensor so that the Hall effect sensor provides a sensor indicative of a position of the second side portion of the seat.

The present invention relates to an auger mount device for coupling an auger to a vehicle such as an excavator, skid steer loader, or the like, having a dipper stick and a bucket link. The auger mount device comprises a mounting plate having a dipper end, an auger end, and a pivot aperture adjacent to the dipper end. The pivot aperture is suitable for mounting the auger mount device to the boom. A fin is attached to the mounting plate. The fin defines a slot suitable for attachment to the bucket link. The auger is mountable to the auger end.
