Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lawn mowers, and in particular to a lawn mower with an adjustable cutter head height. Background Art
[0002] At present, most of the mowing height lifting structures of lawn mowers are like the "wheeled liftable cutter disc" proposed in the Chinese utility model with the announcement number CN212064908U. The height adjustment device is a parallelogram connecting rod structure, including two connecting rods, a connecting rod and an electric push rod; wherein, the two connecting rods are respectively arranged in parallel at the front and rear ends of the frame; each of the connecting rods is provided with three hinge points, including an upper hinge point at the upper end, a middle hinge point at the middle part and a lower hinge point at the lower end; the lower hinge point is hinged to the frame, and the middle hinge point is hinged to the frame; the connecting rod is arranged between the two connecting rods, and the two ends of the connecting rod are respectively hinged to the two upper hinge points; one end of the electric push rod is hinged to the frame, and the other end is hinged to one of the upper hinge points of the connecting rods.
[0003] When the height of the frame with the cutting knife is adjusted, the electric push rod is used for driving, and under the action of the parallelogram connecting rod structure, the height of the frame with the cutting knife can be adjusted.
[0004] However, when the height of the rack is adjusted by the parallelogram connecting rod structure, the rack will also move forward or backward by a certain amount due to the rotation of the parallelogram connecting rod structure.
[0005] In this type of lawn mower, especially when a heavy internal combustion engine is used as the power source for driving the cutter disc, if the lawn mower moves forward and backward during the lifting process, the center of gravity of the lawn mower will move forward or backward significantly, which is not conducive to the control of the lawn mower body; In addition, it is easy to hit the hard obstacles in front due to the additional forward movement or the additional backward movement during lifting, which will cause great damage to the blade and the output shaft of the internal combustion engine; Furthermore, when the chassis is raised or lowered while the blade is rotating to mow the grass, the additional forward movement or the additional backward movement during the raising or lowering process may cause large mowing resistance and impact, thereby reducing the vehicle's passability.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] See also Figure 1-7 A lawn mower with adjustable cutter head height includes a frame 1, a chassis 2, a lifting mechanism and a linear lifting guide mechanism, wherein the lifting mechanism is used to drive the chassis to perform lifting activities relative to the frame.
[0026] A cutter head assembly 5 and a cutter head driving assembly 6 for driving the cutter head assembly to work are provided on the chassis 2. The cutter head assembly 5 can be used to trim grass, bushes, etc. The height of the chassis 2 is adjusted by the lifting mechanism, so that the trimming height of the cutter head assembly 5 can be adjusted.
[0027] The frame 1 is provided with a traveling mechanism 7, which is used to enable the frame 1 to be conveniently moved on the ground.
[0028] In some embodiments, the traveling mechanism 7 includes a left traveling assembly 701 and a right traveling assembly 702 respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the forward direction of the lawn mower.
[0029] In some embodiments, the traveling assembly includes, for example, a traveling wheel set.
[0030] In some embodiments, the lawn mower can be manually propelled for walking.
[0031] In some embodiments, the travel wheel groups of the left travel assembly and the right travel assembly of the lawn mower can be driven by the same travel drive assembly; in other embodiments, they can also be driven separately by different travel drive assemblies, such as the left travel drive assembly 703 drives the left travel assembly 701, and the right travel drive assembly 704 drives the right travel assembly 702.
[0032] The travel drive assembly includes, for example, power parts such as a motor and an internal combustion engine.
[0033] In some embodiments, the travel drive assembly further includes a power transmission assembly to transmit the power output by the power member of the travel drive assembly to the corresponding travel wheel assembly.
[0034] In some embodiments, the travel assembly includes, for example, a travel track assembly. The travel track assemblies of the left and right travel assemblies may be driven by the same travel drive assembly; in other embodiments, they may be driven independently by different travel drive assemblies, such as the left travel drive assembly driving the left travel assembly and the right travel drive assembly driving the right travel assembly.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the walking track assembly of the left walking assembly 701 is driven by the motor of the left walking drive assembly 703, and the walking track assembly of the right walking assembly 702 is driven by the motor of the right walking drive assembly 704, so as to have greater travelability.
[0036] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a lifting link mechanism 31. The lifting link mechanism 31 is provided between the frame 1 and the chassis 2.
[0037] In this embodiment, the lawn mower with adjustable cutter head height also includes a lifting drive mechanism, which is used to drive the lifting link mechanism 31 to change the connecting rod shape of the lifting link mechanism 31, so that the chassis 2 is raised or lowered relative to the frame 1 under the action of the lifting link mechanism 31.
[0038] A linear lift guide mechanism is provided between the frame 1 and the chassis 2. When the chassis 2 is raised or lowered relative to the frame 1, the linear lift guide mechanism guides the chassis 2, limiting its rise or fall to a linear motion. For example, when the frame 1 is horizontal, the chassis 2 can be limited to vertical lift.
[0039] In this embodiment, the lifting link mechanism 31 includes a first adjusting arm 311 and a second adjusting arm 312 .
[0040] An articulated seat 201 is provided on the chassis 2, one end of the second adjusting arm 312 is rotatably connected to the articulated seat 201 of the chassis, the other end of the second adjusting arm 312 is rotatably connected to one end of the first adjusting arm 311, and the other end of the first adjusting arm 311 is suitable for being driven by the lifting drive mechanism.
[0041] The first adjusting arm 311 has a hinge portion 3111 , and the hinge portion 3111 is rotatably connected to the frame 1 .
[0042] The lifting drive mechanism drives the first adjusting arm 311 so that when the first adjusting arm 311 rotates on the frame 1, the height of one end of the first adjusting arm 311 changes accordingly; at this time, through the connection with the second adjusting arm 312, the height of the chassis 2 also changes; for example, when the height of one end of the first adjusting arm 311 increases, the height of the chassis 2 correspondingly increases; when the height of one end of the first adjusting arm 311 decreases, the height of the chassis 2 correspondingly decreases.
[0043] In this embodiment, the linear lifting guide mechanism includes a linear guide rail 401 and a guide slide 402 slidably arranged on the linear guide rail. The connecting portion on the linear guide rail 401 and the connecting portion on the guide slide 402 correspond to two different connecting portions (403, 404) constituting the linear lifting guide mechanism.
[0044] The first connection portion 403 of the linear lifting guide mechanism is connected to the chassis 2 , and the second connection portion 404 of the linear lifting guide mechanism is connected to the frame 1 .
[0045] When the height of the chassis 2 changes, the height change path of the chassis 2 is limited to a straight path through the linear guidance of the linear guide rail 401 and the guide slide 402 and the rotation connection of the second adjustment arm 312.
[0046] When the frame 1 is in a horizontal setting, the height change path of the chassis 2 can be set to be defined as a vertical path.
[0047] In some embodiments, the matching mode between the linear guide rail 401 and the guide sliding member 402 can be set to corresponding shapes according to different needs, such as being set to a sliding match between a round shaft and a guide sleeve, being set to a sliding match between a square shaft and a U-shaped slide rail, being set to a sliding match between a polygonal shaft and a polygonal slide rail groove, etc.
[0048] In some embodiments, the lifting drive mechanism includes a linear drive assembly 81, which includes a driving body 811 and a moving part 812 driven by the driving body to move linearly. The mounting portion on the driving body 811 and the mounting portion on the moving part 812 correspond to two different mounting portions (813, 814) constituting the linear drive assembly.
[0049] When the driving body 811 drives the moving part 812 to move linearly, the distance between the two mounting parts (813, 814) changes. For example, the two mounting parts are driven to adjust to shorten the distance, or the two mounting parts are driven to adjust to lengthen the distance.
[0050] The first mounting portion 813 of the linear drive assembly is rotatably connected to the frame 1 , and the second mounting portion 814 of the linear drive assembly is rotatably connected to the other end of the first adjustment arm 311 .
[0051] When the driving body 811 of the linear drive assembly drives the moving part 812 to move linearly (the two mounting parts are driven to adjust to a shorter spacing or the two mounting parts are replaced and adjusted to a longer spacing), the first adjusting arm 311 is acted upon to rotate on the frame 1 through the rotational connection between the first mounting part 813 and the frame 1, the rotational connection between the second mounting part 814 and the other end of the first adjusting arm 311, and the rotational connection between the hinge part 3111 and the frame 1.
[0052] It can be understood that the other end of the first adjustment arm 311 is pushed or pulled by the linear drive assembly 81 , so that the first adjustment arm 311 can rotate on the frame 1 through the rotational connection between the hinge portion 3111 and the frame 1 .
[0053] When the first adjustment arm 311 rotates on the frame 1, the height of one end of the first adjustment arm 311 changes accordingly. At this time, through the connection with the second adjustment arm 312 and the lifting guidance of the linear lifting guide mechanism, the chassis 2 can be raised and lowered along a specified path.
[0054] In some embodiments, the linear drive assembly 81 includes an electric push rod, the cylinder body of the electric push rod and the piston rod of the electric push rod are respectively the driving body and the moving part of the linear drive assembly, and the operation of the electric push rod causes the piston rod to extend and retract.
[0055] The first mounting portion 813 of the linear drive assembly can be a connector on the cylinder of the electric push rod, and the second mounting portion 814 of the linear drive assembly can be a connector on the piston rod of the electric push rod located outside the cylinder. In other embodiments, the positions of the two mounting portions can be interchanged, so that the first and second mounting portions represent different locations.
[0056] In some embodiments, the lifting linkage mechanism 31 further includes a third adjustment arm 313 and a fourth adjustment arm 314 .
[0057] On the first adjustment arm 311 , the arm length portion from the hinge portion 3111 to one end of the first adjustment arm 311 forms a first force arm 3112 .
[0058] One end of the fourth adjustment arm 314 is rotatably connected to the hinge seat 201 of the chassis, the other end of the fourth adjustment arm 314 is rotatably connected to one end of the third adjustment arm 313 , and the other end of the third adjustment arm 313 is rotatably connected to the hinge portion 3111 .
[0059] In some embodiments, the length of the third adjustment arm 313 is the same as the length of the first force arm 3112 , and the length of the fourth adjustment arm 314 is the same as the length of the second adjustment arm 312 .
[0060] Specifically, a length L1 from the rotational connection position of the hinge portion on the first force arm to the rotational connection position on one end of the first adjustment arm, and a length L3 from the rotational connection position on one end of the third adjustment arm to the rotational connection position on the other end of the third adjustment arm satisfy L1=L3; The length distance L2 from the rotational connection position on one end of the second adjusting arm to the rotational connection position on the other end of the second adjusting arm, and the length distance L4 from the rotational connection position on one end of the fourth adjusting arm to the rotational connection position on the other end of the fourth adjusting arm satisfy L2=L4.
[0061] The first force arm 3112 , the second adjustment arm 312 , the third adjustment arm 313 , and the fourth adjustment arm 314 form a quadrilateral connecting rod structure.
[0062] like Figure 3 、 4 As shown, under the condition of being able to lift vertically, an independent quadrilateral connecting rod structure can be formed between each hinge part and the corresponding hinge seat.
[0063] During the lifting and lowering process, when the chassis is hit, no matter it is a front impact or a rear impact, the independent quadrilateral connecting rod structure can form a tensioning + supporting effect between each hinge part and the corresponding hinge seat.
[0064] Specifically, the first force arm 3112 and the second adjustment arm 312 constitute a first force-bearing structure, and the third adjustment arm 313 and the fourth adjustment arm 314 constitute a second force-bearing structure.
[0065] When the first force-bearing structure formed by the first force arm 3112 and the second adjustment arm 312 provides tension, the second force-bearing structure formed by the third adjustment arm 313 and the fourth adjustment arm 314 can simultaneously provide support. Conversely, when the first force-bearing structure formed by the first force arm 3112 and the second adjustment arm 312 provides support, the second force-bearing structure formed by the third adjustment arm 313 and the fourth adjustment arm 314 can simultaneously provide tension, thereby achieving uniform force distribution and impact resistance.
[0066] When the chassis is hit, each hinged portion and the corresponding hinged seat can obtain a unique protection effect through the independent quadrilateral connecting rod structure, which can better protect the lifting connecting rod mechanism when the chassis is hit.
[0067] In some embodiments, the length of the third adjustment arm 313 is the same as the length of the first force arm 3112 , the length of the fourth adjustment arm 314 , and the length of the second adjustment arm 312 .
[0068] Specifically, the length distance L1 from the rotation connection position of the hinge part on the first force arm to the rotation connection position on one end of the first adjusting arm, the length distance L3 from the rotation connection position on one end of the third adjusting arm to the rotation connection position on the other end of the third adjusting arm, the length distance L2 from the rotation connection position on one end of the second adjusting arm to the rotation connection position on the other end of the second adjusting arm, and the length distance L4 from the rotation connection position on one end of the fourth adjusting arm to the rotation connection position on the other end of the fourth adjusting arm, satisfy L1=L2=L3=L4.
[0069] The first force arm 3112 , the second adjustment arm 312 , the third adjustment arm 313 , and the fourth adjustment arm 314 form an equilateral quadrilateral connecting rod structure.
[0070] In this embodiment, by setting the first force arm 3112, the second adjustment arm 312, the third adjustment arm 313, and the fourth adjustment arm 314, when the chassis 2 is driven to rise and fall, it can play a good force balancing role and has good impact resistance.
[0071] In some embodiments, the hinge portion 3111 is located on the first adjustment arm between one end of the first adjustment arm 311 and the other end of the first adjustment arm 311 .
[0072] The arm length from the hinge portion 3111 to the other end of the first adjustment arm 311 forms a second lever arm 3113 , and the length of the second lever arm 3113 is greater than that of the first lever arm 3112 .
[0073] Please refer to the following for details: Figure 6 The length distance L1 from the rotation connection position of the hinge part on the first force arm 3112 to the rotation connection position on one end of the first adjustment arm, and the length distance L5 from the rotation connection position of the hinge part on the second force arm 3113 to the rotation connection position on the other end of the first adjustment arm satisfy L1<L5, which makes it easier to drive the chassis 2 to rise and fall, and makes the impact force reacting to the lifting drive mechanism smaller.
[0074] like Figure 3 、 6As shown, in some embodiments, the first mounting portion 813, the second mounting portion 814, the first adjustment arm 311, the second adjustment arm 312, the third adjustment arm 313, and the fourth adjustment arm 314 have the same rotation axis. The rotation axis is horizontally arranged, for example, corresponding to the left and right directions when the rack moves forward.
[0075] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism includes two lifting link mechanisms, which are spaced apart along the rotation radial direction of the hinge portion. The two lifting link mechanisms are respectively a first lifting link mechanism 31 a and a second lifting link mechanism 31 b .
[0076] The lifting mechanism further includes a first connecting rod 32 , one end of which is rotatably connected to the first adjustment arm of the first lifting link mechanism 31 a , and the other end of the first connecting rod 32 is rotatably connected to the first adjustment arm of the second lifting link mechanism 31 b .
[0077] When the first adjustment arm of the first lifting link mechanism 31 a rotates, the first adjustment arm of the second lifting link mechanism 31 b rotates accordingly.
[0078] When the rotation axis of the hinge portion 3111 is the left-right direction, the first lifting link mechanism 31 a and the second lifting link mechanism 31 b may be arranged with a front-to-back spacing in a rotation radial direction corresponding to the front-to-back direction.
[0079] In some embodiments, two lifting mechanisms are provided, and the two lifting mechanisms are spaced apart along the rotation axis of the hinge portion. The two lifting mechanisms are respectively a first lifting mechanism 3a and a second lifting mechanism 3b.
[0080] For example, the rotation axis of the hinge portion 3111 is in the left-right direction, and the first lifting mechanism 3a and the second lifting mechanism 3b can be arranged with a left-right spacing.
[0081] In some embodiments, there are two lifting drive mechanisms, which act on the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism respectively. For example, the two lifting drive mechanisms are the first lifting drive mechanism 8a and the second lifting drive mechanism 8b.
