[0002] Automatic lawn mowers are increasingly widely used in the market, especially in Europe and America, where their automation and intelligence have made them a popular choice for modern homes and businesses. Intelligent lawn mowers not only improve work efficiency but also reduce labor costs. Automatic lawn mowers also play an important role in environmental protection. Compared to traditional manual mowing, lawn mowers are characterized by low noise and high efficiency, reducing environmental pollution.
[0003] When using a lawn mower for routine lawn maintenance, it's essential to set the appropriate mowing height. The mower height should be set to the height required for the lawn. Different grass species have different requirements, so the setting should be adjusted according to the actual situation. Furthermore, lawns are not always flat; most have uneven surfaces. If the mower height is not adjusted in time, it will damage the blades and affect the lifespan of the mower. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides an automatic grass cutter with adjustable blade height.
[0005] The technical solution is as follows: An automatic lawn mower, the key features of which are: a support frame and a power mechanism disposed in the middle of the support frame; adjustable tracks are provided on the outer side of both the left and right side walls of the support frame; and a motor is provided on the rear side of the power mechanism, which can drive the tracks to run.
