The bow - supported grass - cutting head 10 is articulated to one end of the traction frame 20 by a shaft 30 through a hole 40 on the shaft - connecting ear seat 122.

[0050] IV. Refer to Figure 9 , in Example 1 of the towing frame 20 of the present invention, one end of the trailer connector 22 is connected to the middle of the frame body 21.

[0051] V. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , in Example 2 of the towing frame 20 of the present invention, an L-shaped walking frame 29 is connected to the frame body 21 of Example 1 of the towing frame 20. The L-shaped walking frame 29 includes an L-shaped bracket 291, a universal wheel 292, and a spring bolt 293. The middle hole 40 of the L-shaped bracket 291 is movably connected to the frame body 21 through a shaft 30. The universal wheel 292 is connected to one end of the L-shaped bracket 291, and the spring bolt 293 is connected to the other end of the L-shaped bracket 291 and the end where the universal wheel 292 is located.

[0052] VI. Refer to Figure 7 and Figure 16 , in Example 3 of the towing frame 20 of the present invention, it includes a high-low multi-hole connector 28, a long connecting rod 26, and a short connecting rod 27. The number of the long connecting rod 26 and the short connecting rod 27 is equal. The upper hole of the high-low multi-hole connector 28 is hinged to one end of the long connecting rod 26 through a shaft 30, and the lower hole is hinged to one end of the short connecting rod 27 through a shaft 30. The other end of the long connecting rod 26 can be connected to the hole 40 at the upper end of the shaft connecting ear seat 122 through a shaft 30, and the other end of the short connecting rod 27 can be connected to the hole 40 at the lower end of the shaft connecting ear seat 122 through a shaft 30.

[0053] VII. Refer to Figure 13 , in Example 4 of the towing frame 20 of the present invention, it is formed by hinging one end of a double-end connecting rod 23 and the trailer connector 22 through a shaft 30.

[0054] VIII. Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 14 , in Example 5 of the towing frame 20 of the present invention, a second sprocket 25 with a chain 24 is further provided on the basis of Example 4 of the towing frame 20. One side of the second sprocket 25 is fixedly connected to the trailer connector 22, and the chain 24 is used to connect the second sprocket 25 and the first sprocket 125 on the shaft connecting ear seat 122.

[0055] IX. Refer to Figure 17 , the grass cutting unmanned vehicle of the present invention includes an unmanned vehicle 200 and at least one grass cutting module 100. One end of the towing frame of the grass cutting module 100 is movably connected to the rear of the unmanned vehicle 200 through a trailer connector or a screw, and the motor on the grass cutting module 100 is connected to the power supply module 50 on the unmanned vehicle 200 through a wire 300.

[0056] X. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 3 andFigure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , when adjusting the mowing height of the present invention, hold or grip the motor with one hand, and loosen the fasteners 124 such as screws or latches on the motor connector 123 of the bow support body 121 with the other hand. Then move the motor 11 on the motor connector 124 up and down to adjust the ground clearance of the mowing head 13 at the lower end of the motor 11. After determining the mowing height, fasten the fasteners 124 such as screws or latches on the motor connector 123.

[0057] See Figure 10 , Figure 11 , the usage mode of the L-shaped walking frame 29 of the present invention: when towing the mowing module 100 to move forward in the non-mowing operation state, one end of the spring bolt 293 can be locked on the L-shaped bracket 291 in the state shown in Figure 10 ; when mowing operation is required, pull the spring bolt 293 to unlock it from the L-shaped bracket 291, then hold the frame body 21 with one hand and grip one end of the L-shaped bracket 291 provided with only the spring bolt 293 with the other hand, and pull it up towards the direction of the bow-type mowing head 10 until the universal wheel 292 rises to the limit position. At the same time, another spring bolt 293 on the L-shaped bracket 291 is inserted into the frame body 21, that is, the retraction of the L-shaped walking frame 29 is completed; when using the L-shaped walking frame 29, first pull the spring bolt 293 stuck on the L-shaped bracket 291 to unlock it, and then push the other end of the L-shaped bracket 291 until the spring bolt 293 on it is inserted and locked on the frame body 21 (as shown in Figure 10 ).

[0058] See Figure 15 , Figure 18 , the way that the mowing module example 5 of the present invention fluctuates with the terrain under the traction of the unmanned vehicle and changes the mowing and passing angles: when the bow support body 121 is pulled and moves down from the edge of the pit, one end of the double-ended connecting rod 23 connected to it rotates counterclockwise (in the ground direction) around the trailer connector 22. During this process, the sprocket 25 on the trailer connector 22 pulls the chain 24 above the double-ended connecting rod 23, driving the sprocket 25 on the bow support body 121 to rotate clockwise, thereby driving the bow-type mowing head 10 to rotate clockwise by a certain angle around the other end of the double-ended connecting rod 23; when the bow support body 121 is pulled and moves up from the bottom of the pit, one end of the double-ended connecting rod 23 connected to it rotates clockwise (opposite to the ground direction) around the trailer connector 22. During this process, the sprocket 25 on the trailer connector 22 pulls the chain 24 below the double-ended connecting rod 23, driving the sprocket 25 on the bow support body 121 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby driving the bow-type mowing head 10 to rotate counterclockwise by a certain angle around the other end of the double-ended connecting rod 23.

[0059] As described above, it is only the specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the said claims.
