Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include implements with a linkage and suspension configured to provide downward pressure on tool to allow it to maintain a desired level of contact with a work surface. An adjustable biasing member such as an air bag provides upward pressure on the linkage to reduce downward pressure on the work surface from the tool. Shock absorbers can also be included to hold the linkage in place and limit bouncing of the tool when it is being transported.

Abstract: An implement capable of being attached to a power machine having a mounting portion and a tool portion. The mounting portion is configured to engage with, and be secured to, an implement carrier on the power machine. The tool portion is capable of performing a work function. The implement has a joint for attaching the tool portion to the mounting portion and an actuator having first and second ends with the first end attached to the mounting portion at a first actuator attachment point and second end attached to the tool portion at a second actuator attachment point. The tool portion is capable of rotating about an axis that extends through the joint. The joint is capable of pivoting so that the axis about which the tool portion rotates is rotatable with respect to the tool portion.

Abstract: An attachment configured to be attached to a power machine is disclosed. The attachment includes a blade having opposing first and second major surfaces and first and second edges. The attachment has first and second end plates each having opposing inner and outer surfaces. The end plates are fixedly attached to the first and second edges of the blade. The inner surfaces of the first and second end plates are positioned adjacent to and extend from the first major surface of the blade. The attachment further includes a support structure coupled to the blade. The support structure includes a first support member fixedly attached to and extending from both the second major surface of the blade and the outer surface of the first end plate.

Abstract: A snow blower attachment for a skid steer loader has a tall discharge chute used for loading high vehicles such as trucks. The discharge chute is folded in the center, and has a strut to support it in its working position. The strut is releasable for folding the chute, and has a saddle that rests on the snow blower housing so that the folded upper chute section is supported adequately during storage.
