Abstract
The cab of a mobile machine may include a first vertical plane centrally positioned along a width of the cab and extending along a length of the cab. The cab may also include a frame with an integrated rollover protective structure. The frame may include an A-post, a B-post, and a C-post arranged along a side of the cab and extending along a height direction of the cab. An elongated portion of the A-post may be inclined from a vertical axis of the cab to make an acute angle with the first vertical plane and an acute angle with a second vertical plane orthogonal to the first vertical plane. And, an elongated portion of the B-post may be inclined from the vertical axis to make an acute angle with the first vertical plane and an acute angle with the second vertical plane.
