Problems solved by technology

This problem is exacerbated by mid-suspended or rear-suspended battery positioning at the rear of the unit, so the front of the unit is likely to lift off the ground when in use and not properly contact the turf, causing uneven cutting and possible lawn damage
Typically, additional ballast must be installed at the front of the lawn care equipment to account for this

Embodiment Construction

[0025] For the sake of clarity, only those components that are critical to an understanding of the invention are shown and described in detail. The remainder of the device will be understood to be conventional by those skilled in the art.

[0026] Such as Figure 1-5 As shown, there is provided a lawn care device, such as a lawnmower 100, which includes a housing cover 110 and four wheels 500 mounted on top of the main lawnmower chassis, the four wheels 500 Two wheels are arranged at both ends (not all shown). The normal forward direction of operation of lawnmower 100 is indicated in each figure by arrow OD.

[0027] The housing cover 110 includes a battery compartment 200 positioned toward the front of the lawnmower 100 . The battery chamber 200 is a substantially elongated space for receiving and fixing the battery 400 . The battery compartment 200 has an upper top portion 250 that provides a cover for the battery compartment 200 and also for the forward opening 210 rela...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a lawn-care apparatus (100) comprising a battery-compartment (200) having an access opening (210). A battery may be inserted into the battery-compartment (200) through the access opening (210) without displacing a roof section (250) which provides cover to the battery-compartment (200).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to lawn care equipment, and more particularly to an improved battery compartment arrangement for lawn care equipment. Background technique [0002] Many battery powered lawn care devices, such as lawnmowers, employ removable batteries that can be inserted into a downwardly sloped (vertical or sloped) battery compartment by lowering the battery. Battery compartments of this type typically include an openable cover to protect the battery compartment and its contents from, for example, rain. [0003] Problems associated with such devices include difficulty loading / unloading the batteries due to the placement and orientation of the battery compartment, and imbalance of the lawn care device due to the positioning of the batteries. [0004] Vertically loaded batteries may be initially easy to install as the installation is assisted by gravity, however, may be difficult to remove from the lawn care equipment due to the weight an...
