Attachment system for vehicle

An attachment assembly for a vehicle, the attachment assembly comprising:

• an attachment including:
• a first arm having a first arm end and an opposing second arm end;
• a second arm having a third arm end and an opposing fourth arm end;
• and
• a cross-member extending between the first arm and the second arm;
• a lateral member;
• and
• an attachment interface configured to selectively engage with the attachment to facilitate releasably coupling the attachment to the vehicle, the attachment interface including:
• a first connecting plate coupled to the lateral member proximate a first end of the lateral member;
• and
• a second connecting plate coupled to the lateral member proximate an opposing second end of the lateral member;
• wherein:
• each of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate includes (i) an upper interface positioned at an upper end thereof and (ii) a lower interface positioned at a lower end thereof;
• the upper interface of each of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate defines a first aperture;
• the lower interface of each of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate defines a second aperture;
• the upper interface includes a first portion that extends forward from the upper end and the lower interface includes a second portion that extends forward from the lower end;
• each of the first arm end of the first arm and the third arm end of the second arm includes (i) a first support coupled to and extending laterally from an upper portion thereof and (ii) a second support coupled to and extending laterally from a lower portion thereof;
• the first support defines (i) a first channel that selectively receives the first portion of the upper interface and (ii) a third aperture that selectively aligns with the first aperture to receive a first pin;
• and
• the second support defines (i) a second channel that selectively receives the second portion of the lower interface and (ii) a fourth aperture that selectively aligns with the second aperture to receive a second pin.

An attachment assembly for a vehicle, the attachment assembly comprising:

• a lateral member;
• an attachment interface including:
• a first connecting plate coupled to the lateral member proximate a first end of the lateral member;
• and
• a second connecting plate coupled to the lateral member proximate an opposing second end of the lateral member;
• wherein each of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate includes (i) an upper interface positioned at an upper end thereof and (ii) a lower interface positioned at a lower end thereof, wherein the upper interface includes a hook and the lower interface includes a bumper, wherein the upper interface of each of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate defines a first aperture, and wherein the lower interface of each of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate defines a second aperture;
• and
• an attachment including:
• a first arm having a first arm end and an opposing second arm end;
• a second arm having a third arm end and an opposing fourth arm end;
• a cross-member extending between the first arm end of the first arm and the third arm end of the second arm;
• a first outer plate coupled to and laterally spaced from the first arm end by a first upper coupler and a first lower coupler such that a first channel is defined therebetween that selectively receives the first connecting plate, wherein the hook and the bumper of the first connecting plate selectively engage with the first upper coupler and the first lower coupler, respectively;
• and
• a second outer plate coupled to and laterally spaced from the third arm end by a second upper coupler and a second lower coupler such that a second channel is defined therebetween that selectively receives the second connecting plate, wherein the hook and the bumper of the second connecting plate selectively engage with the second upper coupler and the second lower coupler, respectively.

An attachment assembly for a vehicle, the attachment assembly comprising:

• a lateral member;
• a plurality of arms spaced along a length of and extending forward of the lateral member;
• and
• an attachment interface including:
• a pair of interfaces coupled to the lateral member, one of the pair of interfaces positioned proximate each end of the lateral member such that the plurality of arms are positioned between the pair of interfaces;
• and
• a plate coupled to the plurality of arms such that the plate is positioned between the pair of interfaces and offset forward relative to the lateral member;
• wherein the plate and the pair of interfaces are configured to selectively engage with an attachment to facilitate releasably coupling the attachment to the vehicle.
