A cross support assembly is provided which is useful, for example, in earthworking equipment. Such an assembly can be mounted to extend between two lateral supports. A bracket extends laterally from the assembly and can serve as a supportive pivot for a bucket or the like. The assembly is generally hollow and acts as a torsion member. A bulkhead is welded in the cross support assembly and is positioned to directly receive forces exerted on the bracket. Usually the bracket and bulkhead are of unitary construction. The bulkhead extends within a generally tubular cross-member which also forms a part of the assembly and is attached between the lateral supports and into contact with the interior of the tubular member. Forces exerted on the assembly are thus generally compressively applied to the bulkhead welds adding to the overall strength of the assembly. |
