Connector for interconnecting frame members of a space frame assembly

A space frame assembly for a machine, the space frame assembly comprising:

• a plurality of frame members;
• and
• a connector to connect a frame member of the plurality of frame members to one or more other frame members of the plurality of frame members, the connector including:
• a body defining a surface and a projection extending outwardly from the surface along a main axis to define an axial end surface away from the surface, wherein the axial end surface defines a curvature having continuity across an expanse of the axial end surface to facilitate formation of a full penetration weld joint between an end of the frame member and the axial end surface upon a contact of the end of the frame member with the axial end surface,
• wherein the frame member defines an inner wall, an inner cavity, and an outer wall, wherein the end of the frame member defines a beveled surface extending inwardly and tapering from the outer wall towards the inner wall, the beveled surface defining a first included angle with respect to the inner wall and a second included angle with respect to the outer wall, and wherein the second included angle is larger than the first included angle.
