[0022] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] The structure of the utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the steering mechanism of the lawn mower provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes a support assembly 1, the support assembly 1 includes a support frame 101, two active tires 2 are rotatably installed at the front of the support frame 101, a mowing assembly 3 is installed at the front of the support frame 101, and a steering assembly 4 is also provided at the rear of the support frame 101, the steering assembly 4 includes a crossbeam 104, the crossbeam 104 is fixed to the middle of the support frame 101, a guide tube 105 is fixedly connected to the side of the crossbeam 104 away from the support frame 101, a screw tube 401 is screwed inside the guide tube 105, a rotating shaft 403 is rotatably installed inside the screw tube 401, a mounting seat 404 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the rotating shaft 403, and a steering tire 408 is rotatably installed on one side of the mounting seat 404.

[0025] The above-mentioned lawn mower steering mechanism has two active tires 2 installed at the front of the support frame 101, and a mowing assembly 3 is installed at the front of the support frame 101 to provide forward power and mowing function. The steering assembly 4 at the rear of the support frame 101 is composed of a crossbeam 104 fixed to the middle of the support frame 101. A guide tube 105 is connected to one side of the crossbeam 104, and a screw tube 401 is installed inside the guide tube 105, and a rotatable shaft 403 is installed inside the screw tube 401. The lower part of the shaft 403 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 404, and a rotatable steering tire 408 is installed on one side of the mounting seat 404. When steering is required, the direction of travel of the lawn mower is changed by rotating the steering tire 408. This design uses the steering tire 408 to share the steering task, reduces the demand for manpower, and thus greatly reduces the burden on the operator. At the same time, the triangular support structure formed by the two active tires 2 and the steering tire 408 increases the stability of the lawn mower and ensures smooth operation under various terrain conditions.

[0026] In this embodiment, two handles 102 are fixedly connected to the upper portion of the support frame 101 , a fixing tube 107 is fixedly connected to the center position of the upper portion of the support frame 101 , and a shovel plate 103 is fixedly connected to the lower portion of the support frame 101 .

[0027] Two handles 102 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the support frame, which facilitates the operator to hold and control the lawn mower. A fixed pipe 107 is fixedly connected to the center of the upper part of the support frame 101 to increase the stability and firmness of the structure. In addition, a shovel board 103 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the support frame 101. The shovel board 103 is designed to scoop up the pressed grass and guide it into the mowing component 3 for mowing, ensuring that the lawn can be evenly mowed and improving the mowing effect.

[0028] In this embodiment, a plug 406 is rotatably mounted inside the fixed tube 107, and the upper part of the plug 406 passes through the upper part of the fixed tube 107 and is fixedly connected to the second rotating disk 407. The outer part of the screw tube 401 is fixedly connected to the first rotating disk 402, and the upper part of the rotating shaft 403 is fixedly connected to the plug rod 405, and the upper part of the plug rod 405 is plugged with the plug 406.

[0029] A rotatable insert tube 406 is installed inside the fixed tube 107, and the upper part of the insert tube 406 passes through the top of the fixed tube 107, and a second turntable 407 is fixedly connected thereto. A first turntable 402 is fixedly connected to the outside of the screw tube 401, and a plug rod 405 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the rotating shaft 403, and the upper part of the plug rod 405 is plugged into the insert tube 406. By rotating the first turntable 402, the vertical height of the rotating shaft 403 in the screw tube 401 and the steering tire 408 can be controlled. This design allows the height of the lawn mower to be adjusted according to the terrain and work needs, thereby improving the adaptability and work efficiency of the lawn mower. Rotating the second turntable 407 is used to facilitate the steering operation, making the operation more simple and flexible.

[0030] In this embodiment, the mowing assembly 3 includes a rotating rod 301, two supporting plates 106 are fixedly connected to the lower part of the support frame 101, the rotating rod 301 is rotatably installed between the two supporting plates 106, and a roller cutter 302 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 301. A gear ring 304 is fixedly connected to the inside of the driving wheel, and gears 303 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating rod 301, and the two gears 303 are respectively meshed and connected with the gear rings 304 in the two driving wheels.

[0031] When the operator pushes the lawn mower, the driving wheel rotates, driving the gear ring 304 inside it to rotate. Due to the meshing connection between the gear ring 304 and the gear 303, the rotation of the gear ring 304 is transmitted to the rotating rod 301 through the gear 303, so that the rotating rod 301 drives the reel 302 to rotate. The diameter of the gear ring 304 is larger than the diameter of the gear 303. This proportional design enables the reel 302 to perform mowing operations at an appropriate speed, ensuring the efficiency and effect of the lawn mower. By driving the reel 302 through the driving wheel, the reel 302 can be rotated at a variable speed, thereby improving the efficiency and effect of mowing.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model:

[0033] When in use, two active tires 2 are installed at the front of the support frame 101, and a mowing assembly 3 is installed at the front of the support frame 101 to provide forward power and mowing functions. The steering assembly 4 at the rear of the support frame 101 is composed of a crossbeam 104 fixed to the middle of the support frame 101. A guide tube 105 is connected to one side of the crossbeam 104, and a screw tube 401 is installed inside the guide tube 105, and a rotatable shaft 403 is installed inside the screw tube 401. The lower part of the shaft 403 is fixedly connected to a mounting seat 404, and a rotatable steering tire 408 is installed on one side of the mounting seat 404. When steering is required, the direction of travel of the lawn mower is changed by rotating the steering tire 408. This design utilizes the steering tire 408 to share the steering task, reduces the demand for manpower, and thus greatly reduces the burden on the operator.
