DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment discloses a lawn mower driving device, which includes a driving member and a transmission mechanism. In this embodiment, the driving member is an engine 20, and the transmission mechanism includes a gear unit and a pulley unit.

[0020] The gear unit is drivingly connected to the output shaft 21 of the engine 20, and the pulley unit is drivingly connected to the power shaft 31 of the rotary cutter 33. The gear unit transmits the power provided by the driving member to the pulley unit through a transmission shaft 13; the pulley unit includes a first pulley 14, a second pulley 15 and a balance wheel 171, the first pulley 14 and the second pulley 15 are connected by a first synchronous belt 18, the balance wheel 171 is located between the first pulley 14 and the second pulley 15, and is pressed against the outer side of the first synchronous belt 18 to push the first side of the first synchronous belt 18 inward toward the second side; the balance wheel 171 is mounted on a swing rod 172, and can swing relative to the first pulley 14 and the second pulley 15, and a tension spring is mounted on the swing rod 172, and the tension spring provides a tendency force for the balance wheel 171 to always press against the first synchronous belt 18. By setting the balance wheel 171, the tension of the first synchronous belt 18 can be adjusted in real time. When the rotary cutter 33 encounters a hard object and causes the second pulley 15 to get stuck, the balance wheel 171 will swing to adjust the tension of the first synchronous belt 18 to avoid the second pulley 15 from affecting the first pulley 14. Except for the second pulley 15, other components of the drive device can operate normally, and the lawn mower can still operate normally. When the rotary cutter 33 passes over the hard object, the running resistance of the second pulley 15 disappears. Under the action of the balance wheel 171, the tension of the first synchronous belt 18 is restored, and the second pulley 15 resumes normal operation under the drive of the first pulley 14. When encountering a hard object during the operation process, the transmission mechanism can protect itself to avoid damage to the components, and after passing over the hard object, the transmission mechanism can resume normal operation by itself, with strong adaptability, and the entire operation process is continuous and smooth without jamming, and the operation efficiency is high.

[0021] The output shaft 21 of the engine 20 is arranged horizontally, the power shaft 31 of the rotary cutter 33 is arranged vertically, the gear unit includes a first gear 11 and a second gear 12 meshing with each other, and the first gear 11 and the second gear 12 are both bevel gears; the transmission shaft 13 is arranged vertically, the first gear 11 is fixedly connected to the output shaft 21 of the driving member, the second gear 12 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the transmission shaft 13; the first pulley 14 is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the transmission shaft 13. Through the cooperation of the gear unit and the pulley unit, cross transmission can be realized, making the layout of the entire drive device more reasonable and compact, and the output torque can be adjusted by adjusting the gear ratio and the wheel diameter ratio, which is energy-saving and efficient.

[0022] The power shaft 31 of the rotary cutter 33 is rotatably assembled on the assembly disk 32, and the second pulley 15 is fixedly mounted on the power shaft 31 and is located below the assembly disk 32; the swing arm 172 includes a rotating end and an assembly end that are relatively arranged, and the rotating end is rotatably assembled on the assembly disk 32, and the balance wheel 171 is rotatably suspended below the assembly end. The above layout can make full use of the assembly space and make the structure of the entire lawn mower more compact; the central axis of the balance wheel 171 is parallel to the central axes of the first pulley 14 and the second pulley 15, and is arranged close to the first pulley 14. The above arrangement can increase the swing torque of the balance wheel 171 and reduce its swing resistance, so as to respond more sensitively to the jamming of the second pulley 15.

[0023] An anti-slip edge is protrudingly provided on the wheel wall of the balance wheel 171 to prevent the first synchronous belt 18 from slipping out, and the anti-slip edge is arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the balance wheel 171; the two anti-slip edges are respectively arranged at the upper end and the lower end of the balance wheel 171, and the first synchronous belt 18 is abutted against the middle part of the balance wheel 171. The spacing between the two anti-slip edges is greater than the width of the first synchronous belt 18. The above arrangement can enable the first synchronous belt 18 to have a certain degree of mobility in the axial direction of the balance wheel 171 to avoid jamming.

[0024] The pulley unit also includes a third pulley 16 which is connected to the driving shaft of the driving wheel 41. The third pulley 16 is connected to the first pulley 14 through the second synchronous belt 19. The first pulley 14 is provided with a first belt groove and a second belt groove in sections along its axial direction. The first synchronous belt 18 is inserted in the first belt groove, and the second synchronous belt 19 is inserted in the second belt groove. The setting of the balance wheel 171 eliminates the influence of the second pulley 15 on the first pulley 14, thereby eliminating the influence of the running resistance of the rotary cutter 33 on the driving wheel 41. The driving wheel 41 and the rotary cutter 33 can share a power source. When the rotary cutter 33 encounters a hard object, the transmission mechanism can protect itself and restore normal operation by itself. The driving wheel 41 can always maintain stable movement without frequent shutdown and restart. It has strong adaptive ability and is energy-saving and efficient.
