A hydraulically controlled bulldozer-blade attachment, particularly for application to an endless track tractor, exhibits, with a view to an improved versatility of use and a better adaptability to the various ground outlines, two half-blades which are linked to a liftable and depressable intermediate frame, the linking axes of the half-blades being at a backward incline relative to the vertical line with reference to the advance direction and each half-blade being controllable by a double-acting jack of its own. At their ends, the half-blades have sloping extensions which can be oriented about horizontal axes arranged in the direction of advance as controlled by double-acting jacks.

1. A hydraulically controlled bulldozer-blade attachment for an endless track tractor, comprising: a supporting frame securable to a tractor; a first intermediate frame pivotally connected to said supporting frame about a first horizontal axis extending transverse to a direction of advance of said tractor; a first double acting hydraulic jack connected between said supporting frame and said first intermediate frame for controlling an inclination of said first intermediate frame about said first axis; two second intermediate frames, each said second intermediate frame being pivotally connected to said first intermediate frame about a respective second horizontal axis extending transverse to a direction of advance of said tractor; a second double acting hydraulic jack connected between said first intermediate frame and each said second intermediate frame for independently controlling inclinations of said second intermediate frames about said second axes; a half blade pivotally connected to each said second intermediate frame about a respective third axis, each said third axis extending parallel to a first vertical plane extending in said direction of advance of said tractor, each said third axis being adjustable relative to a second vertical plane extending transverse to said direction of advance by one of said second jacks, said second jacks being adapted such that said third axes are rearwardly inclined to said second vertical plane; and a third double acting hydraulic jack connected between said second intermediate frame and each of said half blades for controlling inclinations of said half blades about said third axes. 2. The attachment of claim 1 including: an extension pivotally connected about a fourth axis to each said half blade at an end of said half blade opposite said third axis, each said fourth axis comprising a horizontal axis extending transverse to the length of said half blade, each said extension having a length extending at an obtuse angle relative to a respective half blade to which said extension is pivotally connected; and a fourth double acting hydraulic jack connected between each said blade and a respective extension for controlling inclinations of said extensions about said fourth axes.
