Abstract: An ATV hitch attachment includes a first mounting point defined by a hitch coupling and two further mounting points defined by two brace arms inclined upwardly and outwardly to a respective connection location on the rear rack. A rigid connecting member has a pair of arms extending rearwardly for rigid connection by a sliding fit to a forward end of a pair of parallel frame members of an implement such that the rigid connection holds the implement in the operating position in a common horizontal plane with the arms. The implement can be lifted to a raised transport position by an electric actuator causing pivotal movement about a horizontal pivot axis transverse to the rear hitch. Ground wheels which are spaced from the ground in operating position which can contact the ground when the implement is raised to limit squatting movement of the ATV.

Abstract: An ATV has an accessory mounted at a front end providing a working tool, such as a blade, brush or snow blower, by a frame which extends underneath the ATV from a hitch coupling at the rear to a mounting plate which is clamped up under the belly pan of the ATV by a pair of straps at the front. The plate can be adjusted in height and position along the frame and can tilt front to rear to accommodate different makes of machine. The tilting can accommodate tilting of the frame if it is carried at the rear on wheels and floating relative to the hitch. The working tool is mounted on a stub frame portion pivotal upwardly and downwardly at the front of the frame. The working accessory can be adjusted side to side to change angle by a manually operable screw which drives a gear on the tool.

Abstract: A belly mower is provided for attachment to a vehicle of the ATV type. The mower includes a mower deck having a horizontal mounting plate and a depending skirt with a plurality of blades each mounted on a vertical shaft at spaced positions across the deck. The deck is shaped arranged such that it can be located behind the two front wheels of the vehicle and in front of the two rear wheel of the vehicle. The deck includes a rearwardly extending mounting arm for attachment of the deck to a rear hitch of the vehicle such that forward movement of the vehicle moves the deck forwards and maintains the deck between the front and rear wheels. The deck is also connected to the vehicle to prevent side to side movement of the deck.
