Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of garden machinery, and in particular to a lawnmower. Background Technology
[0002] A lawnmower, also known as a lawn trimmer, is a mechanical tool used for mowing lawns and vegetation. With increasing environmental awareness, green areas in major cities are expanding, and the variety of turf types is becoming more diverse. The rapid development of the lawn industry has led to a growing demand for lawnmowers.
[0003] A lawnmower moves by rotating wheels powered by a motor to mow grass. When the motor fails, the user needs to carry or push the lawnmower. The lawnmower is heavy, and the rotation of the wheels to drive the motor's output shaft requires overcoming significant resistance, making it inconvenient to move the lawnmower after the motor fails. Utility Model Content
[0004] To facilitate the movement of the lawnmower and improve its practicality, this application provides a lawnmower.
[0005] The lawnmower provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A lawnmower includes a lawnmower body, a motor, a drive shaft, wheels, and a connecting post. The drive shaft is rotatably connected to the lawnmower body, and the axis of rotation of the drive shaft is horizontal. The motor is connected to the lawnmower body and is used to drive the drive shaft to rotate. The wheels are coaxially connected to the outer circumference of the drive shaft, and a sleeve is coaxially connected to the wheels. The sleeve is fitted onto the outer circumference of the drive shaft. The drive shaft has a limiting hole, the axis of which is perpendicular to the axis of the drive shaft. The sleeve has a connecting hole for communicating with the limiting hole. The connecting post is embedded in the connecting hole and the limiting hole to achieve circumferential fixation of the wheels and the drive shaft.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the motor is working normally, the connecting post is embedded in the limiting hole and the connecting hole, so that the wheel and the drive shaft are circumferentially fixed. The motor can effectively drive the drive shaft to rotate, thereby driving the wheel to rotate and realizing the autonomous movement of the lawnmower. When the motor is damaged, the connecting post can be removed, and the wheel can rotate relative to the drive shaft. This makes it easy for the user to push the lawnmower body to drive the wheel to rotate and realize the movement of the lawnmower body. This reduces the difficulty of moving the lawnmower in the event of motor failure and improves the practicality and convenience of the lawnmower.
[0008] Preferably, it also includes a fixing pin, a limiting ring is connected to the outer periphery of one end of the connecting post, a fixing hole is provided on the outer wall of the connecting post away from the limiting ring, and the fixing pin is embedded in the fixing hole.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, a limiting ring is connected to the outer periphery of one side of the connecting column, and a fixing pin is embedded in the fixing hole on the other side of the connecting column to prevent the connecting column from disengaging from the limiting hole and the connecting hole. When it is necessary to remove the connecting column, the fixing pin can be removed from the fixing hole, so that the connecting column can smoothly disengage from the limiting hole and the connecting hole, thereby improving the reliability and convenience of the lawnmower.
[0010] Preferably, the fixing pin includes an embedding section, a limiting section, and a connecting section. The connecting section is arc-shaped. One end of the embedding section is connected to the connecting section, and one end of the limiting section is connected to the other end of the connecting section. The embedding section is embedded in the fixing hole, and the limiting section abuts against the outer wall of the connecting post.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the fixing pin and the connecting post are connected, the limiting section is bent away from the embedding section, the embedding section is embedded into the fixing hole, the limiting section is released, and the limiting section is pressed against the outer wall of the connecting post, so as to realize the connection between the fixing pin and the connecting post, reduce the possibility of the fixing pin loosening and falling off during use, and improve the reliability and safety of the lawnmower.
[0012] Preferably, the end of the limiting segment away from the connecting segment is inclined to the side away from the embedding segment, and the limiting segment is provided with a limiting groove, the groove wall of which abuts against the outer wall of the connecting column.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the movement of the limiting section away from the connecting section guides the installation of the fixing pin, improving the convenience of fixing pin installation. The limiting section is provided with a limiting groove, and the groove wall abuts against the outer wall of the connecting column, improving the stability of the connection between the fixing pin and the connecting column.
[0014] Preferably, the outer periphery of the wheel is connected with a plurality of protrusions, and the plurality of protrusions are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the wheel.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, several protrusions are connected to the outer periphery of the wheel. These protrusions are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the wheel, which increases the friction between the wheel and the ground, reduces the possibility of wheel slippage during the movement of the lawnmower, and improves the practicality and applicability of the lawnmower.
[0016] Preferably, the bumps are divided into two groups, and the two groups of bumps are symmetrically distributed along the wheel rotation axis.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the bumps are divided into two groups and symmetrically distributed along the wheel rotation axis, which enhances the wheel's grip and stability, helps the lawnmower to operate on surfaces with different coefficients of friction, and improves the lawnmower's applicability.
[0018] Preferably, the two groups of protrusions are staggered.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, two groups of several protrusions are symmetrically distributed and staggered along the wheel rotation axis, which can disperse and reduce the vibration and noise caused by the contact between the protrusions and the ground during the wheel rolling process, thereby improving the smoothness and comfort of the lawnmower operation.
[0020] Preferably, there are four wheels, which are divided into two groups. The two groups of wheels are symmetrically distributed along the wheel rotation axis. Two wheels in the same group are spaced apart along a line perpendicular to the wheel rotation axis. The number of drive shafts and motors is the same as the number of wheels and corresponds one-to-one.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, four wheels are set up, and the number of motors is the same as the number of wheels and corresponds one-to-one, making the lawnmower four-wheel drive. By using different motors with different speeds, the different wheels will have different speeds, thus realizing the steering of the lawnmower and improving the convenience of lawnmower operation.
[0022] Preferably, the device also includes a speed reducer, the number of which is the same as the number of motors and corresponds one-to-one. The speed reducer is connected to the lawnmower body, the output shaft of the motor is coaxially connected to the input shaft of the speed reducer, and the output shaft of the speed reducer is coaxially connected to the drive shaft.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the speed reducer can effectively reduce the output speed of the motor and increase the torque, thereby ensuring the smooth rotation of the drive shaft and improving the working stability and efficiency of the lawnmower.
[0024] Preferably, the handle is U-shaped, and the two ends of the handle are respectively connected to the two sides of the lawnmower body along the wheel rotation axis.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a U-shaped handle, users can easily move the lawnmower by pushing it when the motor is damaged, thus improving the practicality and convenience of the lawnmower.
[0026] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0027] 1. When the motor is working normally, the connecting post is embedded in the limiting hole and the connecting hole, which fixes the wheel and the drive shaft circumferentially. The motor can effectively drive the drive shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the wheel to rotate, enabling the lawnmower to move autonomously. When the motor is damaged, the connecting post can be removed, and the wheel can rotate relative to the drive shaft. This allows the user to push the lawnmower body to drive the wheel to rotate, thus moving the lawnmower body. This reduces the difficulty of moving the lawnmower in the event of motor failure and improves the practicality and convenience of the lawnmower.
[0028] 2. A limiting ring is connected to one side of the connecting post, and a fixing pin is embedded in the fixing hole on the other side of the connecting post. This is used to prevent the connecting post from disengaging from the limiting hole and the connecting hole. When it is necessary to remove the connecting post, the fixing pin can be removed from the fixing hole, so that the connecting post can be smoothly disengaged from the limiting hole and the connecting hole, thereby improving the reliability and convenience of the lawnmower.
[0029] 3. When connecting the fixing pin and the connecting post, bend the limiting section away from the embedding section, embed the embedding section into the fixing hole, loosen the limiting section so that the limiting section presses against the outer wall of the connecting post, thus connecting the fixing pin and the connecting post, reducing the possibility of the fixing pin loosening and falling off during use, and improving the reliability and safety of the lawnmower.

The outer wall of the connecting post 5 fits against the wall of the connecting hole 4111 and the fixing hole 52.
[0050] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5A lawnmower also includes a fixing pin 6. A fixing hole 52 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting post 5 on the side away from the limiting ring 51.
