[0050] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0051] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by "up", "down", "front", "back", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present application. In addition, "first", "second", "third", "fourth" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0052] In order to enable those skilled in the art of this technology to better understand the solution of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0053] As Figure 1 shown, in this embodiment, a grass - discharging mechanism is provided. The mechanism includes a cutter head assembly, a first grass - collecting channel 2, a grass - collecting cover plate 6, a side guide groove plate 7, a grass - crushing cover plate 8, etc. The cutter head assembly includes a cutter head 1 formed by enclosing a side plate 12 and a top plate 11. Please refer to Figure 13 . The lower side of the cutter head 1 is open, allowing the grass to be trimmed to enter the inside of the cutter head 1 and cooperating with the blades in the cutter head assembly to achieve grass cutting. The blades can be arranged on the top plate 11 of the cutter head 1, and the cutting part of the blades is located inside the cutter head 1. Details are not described here and can be specifically referred to the prior art.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 13 , openings are provided on the top plate 11 and the side plate 12 of the cutter head 1. Among them, the openings can be a connected integral opening, or two openings separately provided on the top plate 11 and the side plate 12. There is no excessive limitation here, and both fall within the protection scope of this application. And the first end of the first grass collection channel 2 at least covers the opening on the top plate 11, so that the crushed grass in the cutter head 1 can enter the first grass collection channel 2 through the opening on the top plate 11, and then the grass is discharged backward by the first grass collection channel 2. Of course, the first end of the first grass collection channel 2 can also cover a part of the opening on the side plate 12, and the grass can be discharged backward through the openings on the top plate 11 and the side plate 12 together.

[0055] However, it should be noted that when the side grass discharge method is carried out, if the first end of the first grass collection channel 2 also covers a part of the opening on the side plate 12, then on the basis of covering the opening on the top plate 11, the side guide groove plate 7 also needs to cover a part of the opening on the side plate 12 corresponding to the first grass collection channel 2 to prevent the crushed grass from entering the first grass collection channel 2 through this part of the opening, and ensure that only the side grass discharge method is carried out.

[0056] The grass collection cover plate 6 is movably arranged on the first grass collection channel 2. The moving method can be rotation, sliding, etc. There is no excessive limitation here. Ensure that there is at least one preset position for the movable grass collection cover plate 6 so that the grass collection cover plate 6 can cover the opening on the side plate 12, so that the crushed grass cannot be discharged from the opening on the side plate 12. At this time, the inside of the cutter head 1 is only connected to the first grass collection channel 2, so as to realize the rear grass discharge method.

[0057] When the movable grass collection cover plate 6 moves to other positions except the above preset position, the grass collection cover plate 6 cannot cover the opening on the side plate 12. At this time, the opening on the side plate 12 is in an open state; in this case, different grass discharge functions can be realized by installing the side guide groove plate 7 or the crushed grass cover plate 8.

[0058] Specifically, when the opening on the side plate 12 is in an open state, a side guide groove plate 7 can be set at the opening on the side plate 12. Please refer to Figure 1 , the side guide groove plate 7 includes a side guide groove communicating with the opening on the side plate 12. When the side guide groove plate 7 is assembled in place, the side guide groove can communicate with the opening on the side plate 12, and the end of the side guide groove plate 7 can extend toward the cutter head 1, so that the end of the side guide groove plate 7 at least covers the opening on the top plate 11. Of course, the side guide groove plate 7 can also cover a part of the opening on the side plate 12, so as to completely block the connection between the first grass collection channel 2 and the inside of the cutter head 1. Thus, under the action of the side guide groove plate 7, only the side grass discharge method is realized.

[0059] Furthermore, when the opening on the side plate 12 is in an open state, a crushed grass cover plate 8 can also be set at the opening on the side plate 12, asFigure 2 and Figure 17 As shown in Figure 17 , the straw crushing cover plate 8 can cover the openings on the top plate 11 and the side plates 12, so that the inside of the cutter head 1 cannot communicate with the outside through the openings on the top plate 11 or the side plates 12, and thus the crushed straw is only located inside the cutter head 1, realizing the straw discharging method of the crushed straw.

[0060] In summary of the above embodiments, this application sets openings on the top plate 11 and the side plates 12 of the cutter head 1, and the first end of the first straw collecting channel 2 is arranged at the opening of the top plate 11, so that the first straw collecting channel 2 is communicated with the inside of the cutter head 1; when the rear straw discharging method is selected, through the movable straw collecting cover plate 6, the straw collecting cover plate 6 is closed with the opening on the side plate 12 at the preset position, and the cut grass is discharged backward through the first straw collecting channel 2; when the side straw discharging method is selected, the movable straw collecting cover plate 6 can open the opening on the side plate 12, and by arranging the side guide groove plate 7 at the opening of the side plate 12, the side guide groove of the side guide groove plate 7 is communicated with the opening of the side plate 12, and at the same time, the end of the side guide groove plate 7 can cover the opening on the top plate 11, so as to block the communication between the first straw collecting channel 2 and the inside of the cutter head 1, and make the cut grass enter the side guide groove plate 7 through the opening of the side plate 12 to realize side straw discharging; when the straw crushing method is selected, the movable straw collecting cover plate 6 can open the opening on the side plate 12, the straw crushing cover plate 8 is arranged at the opening of the side plate 12, and the straw crushing cover plate 8 can cover the openings on the top plate 11 and the side plates 12, so that the opening on the cutter head 1 is in a closed state, realizing straw crushing inside the cutter head 1. This application integrates three straw discharging methods, and the switching between each method is flexible and reliable, and users can select different straw discharging methods according to the actual situation.

[0061] In addition, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , a second straw collecting channel 3 is connected to the second end of the first straw collecting channel 2, and the two are detachably connected, and the second straw collecting channel 3 can be externally connected to a straw collecting box 4. When the rear straw discharging method is carried out, the crushed straw can enter the straw collecting box 4 through the first straw collecting channel 2 and the second straw collecting channel 3.

[0062] In some embodiments, the second straw collecting channel 3 can be arranged on the frame 01 of the mower through a limiting bracket 02. Please refer to Figure 3 , the specific setting method between the frame 01 and the limit can refer to the prior art, which will not be elaborated here. It is only necessary to ensure that the first straw collecting channel 2 and the second straw collecting channel 3 will not interfere with the tires or other surrounding parts during movement.

[0063] The second straw collecting channel 3 can be communicated with the first straw collecting channel 2 in a plug-in manner, that is, one end of the second straw collecting channel 3 is plugged into the second end of the first straw collecting channel 2, and a plurality of tensioning devices 5 are arranged on the outer periphery at the plugging position, so that the first straw collecting channel 2 and the second straw collecting channel 3 can have a stable connection effect.

[0064] Further, the tensioning device 5 can be distributed around the first grass collecting channel 2 and the second grass collecting channel 3. Please refer to Figure 4 , the tensioning device 5 includes a first fixing member 51, a second fixing member 52 and a tensioning rubber strip 53. The first fixing member 51 is fixed on the first grass collecting channel 2, the second fixing member 52 is fixed on the second grass collecting channel 3, and the tensioning rubber strip 53 connects the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52. By using the tensioning force of the tensioning rubber strip 53, the first grass collecting channel 2 and the second grass collecting channel 3 are tightly connected to ensure the connection stability. Simply put, the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52 can provide connection points for the first grass collecting channel 2 and the second grass collecting channel 3, and the tensioning rubber strip 53 stably connects the first grass collecting channel 2 and the second grass collecting channel 3 through two connection points.

[0065] In addition, the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52 can be the first type of screw fastener as shown in Figure 5 , or can be the second type of screw fastener as shown in Figure 7 . Among them, for both forms of screw fasteners, the head needs to be embedded in the channel walls of the first grass collecting channel 2 and the second grass collecting channel 3, and the rod part of the screw fastener protrudes from the channel wall, so as to provide a stable connection point for the tensioning rubber strip 53. In the first type of screw fastener, it includes a screw 514. The head of the screw 514 is provided with a double-layer gasket 511. Please refer to Figure 6 , the double-layer gasket 511 can be clamped on both sides of the channel wall. The rod part of the screw 514 is located outside the channel, and a bushing 512 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the rod part. Both ends of the tensioning rubber strip 53 are provided with limit holes 54 sleeved on the outer periphery of the bushing 512, so as to provide a tensioning force for the two fixing members to approach each other. A cap nut 513 is provided on the rod part of the screw 514 to prevent the tensioning rubber strip 53 from falling off the fixing member.

[0066] In the second type of screw fastener, it includes a T-shaped screw 521. Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the head of the T-shaped screw 521 is embedded in the channel wall, so that the T-shaped screw 521 is fixedly arranged. A locking nut 522 is provided on the T-shaped screw 521 to prevent the tensioning rubber strip 53 from falling off the fixing member. Of course, a bushing 512 can also be provided on the rod part of the T-shaped screw 521 to prevent the tensioning rubber strip 53 from directly rubbing against the rod part of the T-shaped screw 521. It should be noted that for the setting methods of the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52, including but not limited to the above two types of screw fasteners, as long as they can provide a stable connection point for the tensioning rubber strip 53, so that the first grass collecting channel 2 and the second grass collecting channel 3 can be stably and detachably connected, they all fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0067] In the embodiment of this application, a rotating member 61 for the grass collecting cover plate 6 to move is provided on the outer wall of the first grass collecting channel 2. Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10, the rotating member 61 includes a fixed bracket 611, a support shaft 613 and a torsion spring 614. The fixed bracket 611 is fixedly arranged on the first grass collecting channel 2, and side brackets 612 extending or protruding towards the same side are arranged at both ends of the fixed bracket 611. Both ends of the support shaft 613 are arranged on the two side brackets 612, which can be fixedly connected or rotatably connected, and there is no excessive limitation here. The grass collecting cover plate 6 can be rotatably connected to the support shaft 613, and an interference fit method can be adopted to reduce the rotational friction force between the grass collecting cover plate 6 and the support shaft 613, so as to ensure that the grass collecting cover plate 6 can rotate stably with the axis of the support shaft 613 as the rotation axis.

[0068] The torsion spring 614 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft 613. One end of the torsion spring 614 is fixedly connected to the fixed bracket 611 or the first grass collecting channel 2, and the other end is connected to the grass collecting cover plate 6. The torsion spring 614 has an initial torsion force for providing a torsion force for the grass collecting cover plate 6 to rotate towards the opening on the side plate 12; when the rear grass discharging method is adopted, under the action of the torsion spring 614, the grass collecting cover plate 6 has a pressing force for pressing against the opening of the side plate 12 to prevent the crushed grass from being accidentally discharged through the opening of the side plate 12. When the side grass discharging method is adopted, the grass collecting cover plate 6 can also be in contact with the side guide groove plate 7, and the grass collecting cover plate 6 with torsion force can provide a pressing force for pressing the side guide groove plate 7 against the cutter head 1 to improve the setting stability of the side guide groove plate 7; similarly, when the grass crushing method is adopted, the grass collecting cover plate 6 can also be in contact with the grass crushing cover plate 8, and the grass collecting cover plate 6 with torsion force can provide a pressing force for pressing the grass crushing cover plate 8 against the cutter head 1 to improve the setting stability of the grass crushing cover plate 8.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 2 , in some embodiments, the first end of the first grass collecting channel 2 is also provided with an extending end 21 extending towards the cutter head 1. The extending end 21 is in contact with the cutter head 1, and the extending end 21 has an inner contour adapted to the outer contour of the cutter head 1, so that the extending end 21 can be stably in contact with the cutter head 1 and has a certain sealing effect to prevent the crushed grass from being discharged through the gap between the first grass collecting channel 2 and the cutter head 1.

[0070] A side opening 22 corresponding to the opening on the side plate 12 is opened on the extending end 21, and the grass collecting cover plate 6 can cover the side opening 22 of the extending end 21 at the above-mentioned preset position, so as to close the opening on the side plate 12.

[0071] When using the side guide groove plate 7 and the grass crushing cover plate 8, it is necessary to cover the openings on the top plate 11 at the ends of the side guide groove plate 7 and the grass crushing cover plate 8 to prevent the crushed grass from entering the first grass collecting channel 2 through the openings on the top plate 11. To further improve the setting stability of the side guide groove plate 7 and the grass crushing cover plate 8, a clamping groove 71 can be provided at one end of the side guide groove plate 7 and / or the grass crushing cover plate 8 that covers the opening on the top plate 11. Please refer to Figure 14 and Figure 16, on the top plate 11, there are provided supporting lugs 13 that are engaged and clamped with the clamping grooves 71. Please refer to Figure 15 and Figure 17 , the side guide groove plate 7 and the straw crushing cover plate 8 can be hung on the supporting lugs 13, and with the pressing effect of the grass collecting cover plate 6, the side guide groove plate 7 and the straw crushing cover plate 8 are stably arranged.

[0072] Furthermore, on the grass collecting cover plate 6, there is also provided a lock assembly 62. The lock assembly 62 and the rotating member 61 are respectively arranged on both sides. Please refer to Figure 9 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the lock assembly 62 includes a lock tongue 622 and a return spring 624 connected to the lock tongue 622. The lock tongue 622 can be embedded in the grass collecting cover plate 6. At the end of the lock tongue 622, there is a hook-shaped portion 623, and the hook-shaped portion 623 is exposed relative to the grass collecting cover plate 6. One end of the return spring 624 abuts against the grass collecting cover plate 6, and the other end abuts against the grass collecting cover plate 6, so as to provide an elastic force for the lock tongue 622 to extend outwards. When the movable grass collecting cover plate 6 rotates to the opening of the side plate 12, the hook-shaped portion 623 can extend into the side opening 22 of the extension end 21, and the hook-shaped portion 623 can be engaged with the inner edge of the side opening 22, thereby preventing the grass collecting cover plate 6 from detaching from the extension end 21 of the first grass collecting channel 2, and cooperating with the rotating assembly on the other side of the grass collecting cover plate 6 to form a stable connection structure between the grass collecting cover plate 6 and the extension end 21; and after the movable lock tongue 622 is compressed inwards, it can disengage from the inner edge of the side opening 22, thereby disengaging the engagement, so that the grass collecting cover plate 6 can move freely again. In addition, the lock assembly 62 further includes a lock buckle pressing plate 621 that covers the lock tongue 622 and the return spring 624, so that the lock tongue 622 and the return spring 624 have a relatively enclosed space to isolate the interference of external weeds.
