The connection between the nut 51 and the driven shaft 85 is more stable, and the adjustable range is large, and the processing cost is lower. The nut 51 and the driven shaft 85 are arranged on the chassis of the frame 1, and a frame 5 is provided at the lower end of the nut 51. The bottom of the frame 5 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the mowing chassis 31. The output shaft 82 rotates to drive the output gear 83 to rotate, and then drives the driven gear 84 to rotate, and then drives the driven shaft 85 to rotate, and then drives the nut 51 to reciprocate along the axis direction of the driven shaft 85, so that the mowing chassis 31 can reciprocate along the axis direction of the driven shaft 85, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height between the mowing chassis 31 and the ground, and adjusting the lifting of the mowing chassis 31 by the forward and reverse rotation of the first driving member 81.

[0023] The frame 1 is provided with a second driving member 6, on which an output shaft 61 is driven and installed, and the output shaft 61 is drivingly connected to a transmission assembly 4, which includes a first transmission wheel 41 connected to the output shaft 61 and a second transmission wheel 42 for driving the blade in the mowing chassis 31 to rotate. The present embodiment also includes a third transmission wheel 43, which is used to be connected to another blade in the mowing chassis 31, so that the two blades in the mowing chassis 31 are driven to rotate by the rotation of the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43, thereby improving the mowing efficiency. The first transmission wheel 41 is connected to the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43 through a belt or chain. The first transmission wheel 41 is provided with a sleeve 411 sleeved on the outer periphery of the output shaft 61, and the output shaft 61 is slidably arranged in the sleeve 411. The sleeve 411 has an axial hole 412 corresponding to the connecting portion of the output shaft 61. The cross-sections of the axial hole 412 and the output shaft 61 are non-circular cross-sections.

[0025] The frame 5 has a connecting hole 52 for installing the shaft of the sleeve 411 and the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43. By installing the sleeve 411, the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43 on the frame 5, the sleeve 411, the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43 can move back and forth with the frame 5. The output shaft 61 can be slidably connected in the sleeve 411. Therefore, when the frame 5 is at any height above the ground, the rotation of the output shaft 61 can always drive the sleeve 411 to rotate, and then drive the first transmission wheel 41 to rotate. In this embodiment, the first transmission wheel 41, the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43 are pulleys or sprockets.

[0026] A box body 7 for protecting the output assembly 8 is installed on the frame 1 . The box body 7 has a cavity 71 inside. The output assembly 8 is installed in the cavity 71 , so as to prevent dust and grass clippings from adhering to the output assembly 8 .

[0027] Rollers 32 are provided at both ends of the mowing chassis 31 so that the mowing chassis 31 can move better when it is close to the ground.

[0028] When adjusting the height: by operating the first driving member 81 on the control switch 2 to rotate forward and reverse, the output shaft 82 is driven to rotate, and then the output gear 83 is driven to rotate, and then the driven gear 84 is driven to rotate, and then the driven shaft 85 is driven to rotate, and then the nut 51 is driven to reciprocate along the axis direction of the driven shaft 85, so that the mowing chassis 31 can reciprocate along the axis direction of the driven shaft 85, so as to adjust the height between the mowing chassis 31 and the ground, and the output shaft 61 is always kept in a connected state in the shaft hole 412, so when the second driving member 6 is started to mow the grass, the output shaft 61 can also drive the first transmission wheel 41 on the sleeve 411 to rotate, and then the second transmission wheel 42 and the third transmission wheel 43 are driven to rotate through the belt, so that the two blades in the mowing chassis 31 can mow the grass.
