Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lawn mowers, in particular to a swing arm type front wheel mechanism for a zero-turn lawn mower. Background Art
[0002] A lawn mower, also known as a lawn car, includes a body, a drive axle, wheels, and a mechanical brake device. There is a mowing device at the bottom of the body. The power source of the lawn car is a solar panel carport and a battery pack. The lawn car has the advantages of no noise and exhaust pollution, low cost, and low failure rate. Lawn cars are often used for mowing garden lawns.
[0003] In the current market, since there are usually mud pits, puddles and other potholes on uncut lawns, the wheels of a lawn mower will sink into the potholes when passing through the potholes, causing the entire vehicle to tilt, which may affect the quality of mowing at the least and may cause the vehicle to overturn in severe cases. Therefore, a swing-arm front wheel mechanism for a zero-turn lawn mower is proposed to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0021] See also Figure 1-3In this embodiment, a swing arm type front wheel mechanism for a zero-turn lawn vehicle comprises two fixed columns 1 and a fuselage 11. A swing arm 2 is installed at the bottom of the two fixed columns 1. The two swing arms 2 are rotatably connected to eccentric shafts 3. Wheels 4 are fixedly sleeved on the surfaces of the two eccentric shafts 3. A connecting box 5 is fixedly installed on the opposite side of the two fixed columns 1. A disassembly structure 6 is arranged inside the two connecting boxes 5. The two connecting boxes 5 are connected to a crossbeam 7 through the disassembly structure 6. A fixing block 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the fuselage 11. A main shaft 8 is rotatably connected to the middle of the right side of the fuselage 11. Four limit rods 10 are fixedly installed on the right side of the fuselage 11.
[0022] A rotary block is fixedly installed on the top of the two-way threaded rod 601, and the rotary block is provided to facilitate the rotation of the two-way threaded rod 601. A clamping rod 603 is fixedly installed on the right side of the two moving blocks 602. Through grooves are opened on the tops of the two connecting boxes 5. The through grooves are provided to facilitate the two clamping rods 603 to extend out of the connecting box 5. When in use, the two-way threaded rod 601 is rotated by the rotary block to make the two moving blocks 602 move relative to each other, and the two moving blocks 602 drive the two clamping rods 603 to be inserted into the clamping grooves of the crossbeam 7 for fixation.
[0023] A number of slots are provided on the surface of the beam 7, and all of the slots are compatible with the clamping rod 603. A rotating hole is provided in the middle of the beam 7 to facilitate the rotation of the main shaft 8 in the beam 7. The main shaft 8 and four limit rods 10 can pass through the beam 7 and the fixed block 9 and extend to the outside. The four limit rods 10 are grouped in pairs, and the two groups of limit rods 10 are respectively located at the upper end and the lower end of the beam 7. The setting of the limit rods 10 can limit the up and down displacement of the beam 7.
[0024] When implementing, follow these steps:
[0025] 1) First, one of the wheels 4 falls into the pit, and the wheel 4 drives the crossbeam 7 to tilt through the fixed column 1, the main shaft 8, etc.;
[0026] 2) Then, four limit rods 10 are provided to limit the inclination range of the cross beam 7;
[0027] To sum up, the swing-arm front wheel mechanism of the zero-turn lawn mower is provided with a crossbeam 7, a main shaft 8, etc. When a pothole appears on the lawn, when one of the wheels 4 falls into the pothole, the wheel 4 will drive the crossbeam 7 to tilt through the fixed column 1, the connecting box 5, the main shaft 8, etc., and the inclination amplitude of the crossbeam 7 can be limited by the provision of four limit rods 10, thereby reducing the influence on the wheel 4 that has not fallen into the pothole. Through the above-mentioned provision, even if the wheel 4 falls into the pothole, the main body 11 will not be affected, thereby ensuring its mowing efficiency and having high practicality.
