According to some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter, a ride-on mower can include a main frame, a side member pivotally connected to the main frame, and a transaxle. The transaxle can include a pump portion that has a pump housing fixed on the main frame and a fluid displacement structure located in the pump housing. The transaxle can further include a motor portion including a motor housing and a fluid driven structure located in the motor housing. The motor housing can be separate from the pump housing, and the motor housing can be carried on and movable with the side member. Tubing can interconnect the pump portion and the motor portion.

A frame, in particular of a universal carrier, which &includes a chassis of the frame, a left axle with two portal suspensions at the ends of the left axle, a right axle with two portal suspensions at the ends of the right axle, and the double-sided stabilizing lever. The double-sided stabilizing lever is pivotally mounted on the chassis of the frame in the transverse direction. The axles are pivotally mounted on the chassis of the frame in the longitudinal direction. The double-sided stabilizing lever is connected to the left axle and the right axle and is arranged between them transversely.

A latch mechanism is used with agricultural equipment, such as a mower, for securing the header of the mower to the tongue during transport. A pivoting catch is mounted on the trail frame on which the header is mounted. A receiver for the catch is mounted on the tongue. During mower transport the catch is biased into engagement with the receiver by a first spring and secures the header to the tongue in a parallel orientation. When the mower configuration is changed to operational mode the catch is disengaged from the receiver using a second spring attached to the catch. A cable attaches the second spring to a wheel arm of a field wheel. Deployment of the field wheel into the operation mode draws the cable and second spring into tension, overcoming the biasing force of the first spring and pivoting the catch out of engagement with the receiver.

A self-propelled robotic work tool (1) is disclosed comprising a tool chassis (3) and a number of tool support members (61, 62, 63) attached to the tool chassis (3) and being configured to abut against a ground surface (27) in a first plane (P1) during operation of the work tool (1). The work tool (1) further comprises a number of snap fit assemblies (s1-s4) and a tool body (5) attachable to the tool chassis (3) via the number of snap fit assemblies (s1-s4). The number of snap fit assemblies (s1-s4) is configured to allow movement of at least a portion (5′) the tool body (5) relative to the tool chassis (3) between a lowered and a raised position in directions (d1, d2) substantially perpendicular to the first plane (P1) when the tool body (5) is attached to the tool chassis (3) via the number of snap fit assemblies (s1-s4).

Frame assemblies for a corn row head formed from components formed from different materials may include a frame portion having a first beam leg and a second beam leg formed of a first material and a skid plate attached to each of the first beam leg and the second beam leg formed from a second material different than the first material. The first material may be aluminum, and the second material may be steel. In some implementations, a breast plate joining the first beam leg and the second beam leg may be formed from the first material and may be welded to the first beam leg and the second beam leg. In other implementations, the breast plate may be formed from the second material and may be adhesively bonded to the first and second beam legs.

An agricultural machine includes a hitching support, at least one tool or group of tools, at least one support arm which is connected to the hitching support by a first joint and to the tool or tool group, and which is mounted so as to pivot about a transfer axis between operational and raised positions, and a safety device making it possible to carry out a safety movement under the effect of pressure. The safety device includes a lift connected to the hitching support by a second joint. The second joint is offset relative to the first joint in the direction of travel. The safety movement can include a second movement phase during which the lift is able to move the tool or the group of tools away from the ground.
