Abstract
A push frame is provided for interconnecting an undercarriage of a tractor of a work vehicle and a blade of the work vehicle. The push frame comprises a first push-beam, a second push-beam, a first cross-beam, a second cross-beam, and a center joint. The first and second push-beams are spaced apart to be positioned on laterally opposite sides of the undercarriage relative to a fore-aft axis of the push frame. The first and second cross-beams are fixed respectively to the first and second push-beams laterally outwardly relative to the fore-aft axis and are attached to one another laterally inwardly relative to the fore-aft axis by the center joint of the push frame allowing relative movement between the first and second cross-beams. At least one of the first and second cross-beams varies in height.
