US Patent 7559719 Screed attachment for skid steer vehicle

A screed attachment is provided for an industrial vehicle, such as a skid steer vehicle. The attachment includes a pair of extendable beam assemblies and a mounting structure configured to support the beam assemblies on the forward attachment point of the vehicle. The beam assemblies are set apart sufficient for the skid steer to drive between the assemblies to engage the mounting structure. Legs are provided to support the beam assemblies when the screed attachment is in use. The screed attachment includes a screed plate supported by the extendable beam of the beam assemblies so that the screed plate can be extended over a concrete pour and retracted along the pour to perform the screeding operation. The screed plate is vertically adjustable and may be under the control of a laser leveling system.
