When the reel blade 102 forms a shearing structure with the bed knife blade 12, the blade edge of the reel blade 102 is opposite to the blade edge of the bed knife blade 12.

[0016] In some embodiments, the hob blade 102 extends spirally on the roller 101 , the bed knife blade 12 is a straight blade, and the bed knife blade 12 is rectangular.

[0017] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, in some embodiments, the bed knife adjustment structure 100 includes two side shells 10 disposed oppositely, a bed knife bracket 11, a bed knife blade 12, a pressure block 13, a fastener 14, and an eccentric member 15. The bed knife bracket 11 is located between the two side shells 10 disposed oppositely and is connected to the two side shells 10 disposed oppositely. The bed knife blade 12 is located between the two side shells 10 disposed oppositely and is connected to the bed knife bracket 11. The fastener 14 is used to fix the pressure block 13 to the side shells. The pressure block 13 and the side shells form a through hole 110 facing the bed knife bracket 11, and the aperture of the through hole 110 can be adjusted by the fastener 14. The eccentric member 15 includes a first sub-shaft 151 and a second sub-shaft 152. The diameter of the second sub-shaft 152 is smaller than the diameter of the first sub-shaft 151. The first sub-shaft 151 is located in the through hole 110. A connecting hole 120 is provided in the bottom knife bracket 11. The second sub-shaft 152 is provided in the connecting hole 120 and is clearance-matched with the bottom knife bracket 11. The eccentricity of the second sub-shaft 152 relative to the first sub-shaft 151 is greater than the gap between the second sub-shaft 152 and the bottom knife bracket 11.

[0018] In the present application, since the bed knife adjustment structure 100 includes two relatively arranged side shells 10, a bed knife bracket 11, a bed knife blade 12, a pressure block 13, a fastener 14 and an eccentric member 15, the eccentric member 15 includes a first sub-axis 151 and a second sub-axis 152, the diameter of the second sub-axis 152 is smaller than the diameter of the first sub-axis 151, the second sub-axis 152 is arranged in the connecting hole 120 of the bed knife bracket 11 and is clearance-matched with the bed knife bracket 11, the first sub-axis 151 is located in the through hole 110, and the aperture of the through hole 110 formed by the pressure block 13 and the side shell can be adjusted by the fastener 14, the bed knife blade 12 is located between the two relatively arranged side shells 10 and connected to the bed knife bracket 11, and the bed knife bracket 11 is located between the two relatively arranged side shells 10 and connected to the side shell. Therefore, when When the aperture of the through hole 110 is adjusted to a preset aperture and a clearance fit with the first sub-shaft 151, and when the eccentric member 15 rotates and the side shell is stationary, the second sub-shaft 152 rotates around the central axis of the first sub-shaft 151. Since the eccentricity of the second sub-shaft 152 relative to the first sub-shaft 151 is greater than the clearance between the second sub-shaft 152 and the bed knife bracket 11, the bed knife bracket 11 rotates relative to the side shell, and the bed knife blade 12 rotates with the rotation of the bed knife bracket 11, so that the bed knife blade 12 can be adjusted to a suitable position parallel to the reel blade 102 in the lawn mower robot 1 (it can also be understood that the bed knife blade 12 is parallel to the roller 101), and at the same time, a suitable gap is formed with the reel blade 102 in the lawn mower robot 1 to facilitate mowing the lawn. After the adjustment is completed, the aperture of the through hole 110 formed by the pressing block 13 and the side shell is reduced by the fastener 14 to clamp the first sub-shaft 151, thereby achieving locking without causing the bed knife blade 12 to deviate.

[0019] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3. Figure 3 is a partial enlarged schematic diagram of part A in Figure 1.

[0020] As shown in FIG2 , the two side shells 10 disposed opposite to each other refer to the first side shell 10a and the second side shell 10b disposed opposite to each other. As shown in FIG1 , the pressing block 13 includes a first pressing block 13a and a second pressing block 13b. The first pressing block 13a and the first side shell 10a form a first through hole 110a facing the bed knife bracket 11. As shown in FIG1 and FIG2 , the second pressing block 13b and the second side shell 10b form a second through hole 110b facing the bed knife bracket 11. The two ends of the bed knife bracket 11 are respectively provided with first connecting holes 110a and 110b. 20a and the second connecting hole 120b. The eccentric member 15 includes a first eccentric member 15a and a second eccentric member 15b. The first eccentric member 15a is located between the first through hole 110a and the first connecting hole 120a, and the second eccentric member 15b is located between the second through hole 110b and the second connecting hole 120b. It should be noted that the first eccentric member 15a includes a first sub-axis 151 and a second sub-axis 152, and the second eccentric member 15b also includes a first sub-axis 151 and a second sub-axis 152. Thus, the first eccentric member 15a and / or the second eccentric member 15b can be rotated to adjust the position of the bedknife blade 12, thereby ensuring an appropriate gap between the bedknife blade 12 and the reel blade 102 for easier lawn mowing. It should be noted that only one side of the bedknife blade 12 can be adjusted, or both sides can be adjusted. Furthermore, when adjusting only one side of the bedknife blade 12, the other side can remain unchanged, making adjustment more convenient.

[0021] The first connection hole 120a and the second connection hole 120b may both be blind holes.

[0022] During assembly, the second sub-shaft 152 of the eccentric member 15 can be first inserted into the connecting hole 120 of the bottom knife bracket 11, and then the pressure block 13 and the side shell are connected by the fastener 14. The aperture of the through hole 110 formed by the pressure block 13 and the side shell is adjusted by the fastener 14 so that the eccentric member 15 can rotate relative to the through hole 110, or cannot rotate relative to the through hole 110.

[0023] In some embodiments, a flat groove 153 is provided at one end of the first sub-shaft 151 of the eccentric member 15 away from the second sub-shaft 152 , so that a flat-blade screwdriver can be inserted into the flat groove 153 to rotate the eccentric member 15 .

[0024] In some embodiments, the fit tolerance between the second sub-shaft 152 and the connecting hole 120 is H7 / g6. In some embodiments, when adjusting the gap between the bedknife blade 12 and the hob blade 102 by adjusting the bedknife blade 12, the diameter of the through hole 110 formed by the pressing block 13 and the side shell can be adjusted by the fastener 14 so that the fit tolerance between the first sub-shaft 151 and the through hole 110 is H7 / g6.

[0025] In other embodiments, the fit tolerance between the second sub-shaft 152 and the connecting hole 120 may also be of other tolerance grades, as long as the eccentricity of the second sub-shaft 152 relative to the first sub-shaft 151 is greater than the gap between the second sub-shaft 152 and the bed knife bracket 11. By adjusting the aperture of the through hole 110 formed by the pressure block 13 and the side shell via the fastener 14, the fit tolerance between the first sub-shaft 151 and the through hole 110 may also be of other tolerance grades, as long as the first sub-shaft 151 can rotate relative to the through hole 110 and the through hole 110 can serve to limit the rotational space of the first sub-shaft 151.

[0026] In some embodiments, the eccentricity of the second sub-axis 152 relative to the first sub-axis 151 is between 0.1 and 0.3 mm. The gap between the second sub-axis 152 and the bed knife bracket 11 is less than 1 mm, which is more compatible with the bed knife bracket 11.

[0027] In some embodiments, the fastener 14 includes a fastening screw, and the fastener 14 includes a first fastener 14a and a second fastener 14b, wherein the first fastener 14a and the second fastener 14b are respectively located on either side of the eccentric member 15. The fastener 14 connects the pressure block 13 and the side shell, and the diameter of the through hole 110 formed between the pressure block 13 and the side shell can be adjusted by loosening or tightening the fastener 14, resulting in a simple structure and more convenient adjustment.

[0028] The pressing block 13 is in a cubic shape, and a first arc-shaped groove is provided on the side of the pressing block 13 facing the side shell. Correspondingly, a second arc-shaped groove is provided on the side of the side shell facing the pressing block 13. When the fastener 14 connects the pressing block 13 and the side shell, the pressing block 13 abuts against the side shell, so that the first arc-shaped groove and the second arc-shaped groove are combined to form the through hole 110 facing the bottom knife bracket 11.

[0029] In other embodiments, the fastener 14 may also be of other structures, as long as it can connect the pressing block and the side shell and can adjust the aperture of the through hole through the fastener 14 .

[0030] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 and 3, the bedknife adjustment structure 100 further includes a gasket 16, which is sleeved on the second sub-shaft 152 and located between the first sub-shaft 151 and the bedknife bracket 11. The gasket 16 can reduce friction between the first sub-shaft 151 and the bedknife bracket 11, thereby saving effort when rotating the eccentric member 15 and reducing wear between the eccentric member 15 and the bedknife bracket 11.

[0031] The above is an implementation method of the embodiment of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the embodiment of the present application. These improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present application.
