ABSTRACT:
An auxiliary implement adapted for use in combination with different makes and models of first implements includes an adjustable mounting for securing the auxiliary implement to different sizes and shapes of frame members in the first implements. The mounting comprises a bracket secured to a support in the auxiliary implement and the bracket includes a forwardly projecting portion engageable with the upper side of the frame member to which the auxiliary implement is to be connected. A side portion of the bracket extends laterally beyond the side of the support and includes a vertically extending hole formed therethrough. Mounted on the bracket forwardly of the hole is a rearwardly extending tongue having a free end portion located adjacent the hole. The forward end portion of a line in the form of a roller chain is connected to the tongue by being telescoped over the tongue and between the links of the chain. Pinned on the opposite end of the chain is a threaded bolt and the bracket is secured to the frame by wrapping the chain in a forward direction around the frame and telescoping the bolt upwardly through the hole. A nut threaded on the end of the bolt serves to draw the bolt upwardly and thereby tighten the chain around the frame. To keep the tongue from being bent during tightening, a spacer is telescoped over the bolt and fits beneath the free end portion of the tongue on one side of the hole. On the opposite side of the hole, a lug projecting upwardly from the spacer serves to support the other side of the nut thereby keeping the nut from binding on the bolt during tightening.
