Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of garden tool technology, and specifically relates to a garden tool. Background Technology

[0002] In garden maintenance, lawn mowers are a common tool used to trim lawn edges and hard-to-reach areas. Most lawn mowers on the market today feature handles attached to the tail and support shaft. This design allows the operator to move the mowing head using the support shaft with both hands positioned forward and backward, thus trimming the lawn. Its advantage lies in better control of the mower's direction and balance, ensuring precise operation.

[0003] However, this design also has some shortcomings. First, during use, the weight of the lawnmower is mostly concentrated on the handle of the support rod, leading to increased hand fatigue on the side holding the support rod. After prolonged use, the operator may experience wrist discomfort and even develop overuse injuries. Second, current lawnmower handles are all fixed, which causes inconvenience in subsequent use. For example, when the lawnmower is not in use, the fixed handle is inconvenient to store, takes up a lot of space, and is not easy to carry. In addition, since the handle is not adjustable, it cannot meet the personalized adjustment needs of different operators based on usage habits and other factors, which to some extent limits the applicability and comfort of the lawnmower. Therefore, to address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a lawnmower handle that provides balanced two-handed operation, reduces operator hand fatigue, and is easy to store and adjust, thereby improving the efficiency and comfort of the lawnmower.
