The disclosure provides a multi-purpose portable gardening tool with multiple heads and combinations, belonging to the technical field of electric gardening tools. It solves the technical problems that the existing gardening tools have single function and are inconvenient to carry. The multi-purpose portable gardening tool with multiple heads and combinations includes a main machine, a function head, an extension tube, an extension intermediate head and a function intermediate head; the function head or the extension intermediate head is in spigot joint with a head end of the main machine, a head end of the extension intermediate head is connected to the extension tube having the function intermediate head at a head end thereof, and the function head is in spigot joint with a head end of the function intermediate head. The gardening tool in the disclosure at least includes three function heads, and may further extend more functions and methods of application by combining the function heads to the main machine and combining the main machine to the extension intermediate head, the function intermediate head and the extension tube, so that the gardening tool has more abundant functions to carry out multi-job operations only by one set of equipment, thereby improving convenience of use.

The invention relates to an adjusting device, which includes a lifting device for adjusting a position of an attachment in use and a locking mechanism. The lifting device is switched between a locking position and a free position under a locking action of the locking mechanism, the lifting device drives the attachment to move to a first position when the lifting device is in the locking position; and the lifting device drives the attachment to move to a second position so as to work when the lifting device is in the free position. The adjusting device of the present invention has a simple structure, a low production cost, an easy maintenance, and a garden tool using the adjusting device can conveniently and quickly adjust the position of the attachment connected to the garden tool.

Mulch kit control lever

A mulch kit control lever includes a handle pivotably mounted to a support plate with a tension spring connecting the handle to the support plate and urging the handle to pivot to either a mulching position or a side discharge position relative to the support plate. The tension spring is connected before the mulch kit control lever is installed on the mower deck. A retainer slides in a slot in one of the support plate and the handle preventing over-travel of the handle past the mulching position and the side discharge position.

Multi-functional garden implement

A multi-functional garden implement comprises an underframe, and a power motor is secured to the underframe. The multi-functional garden implement also comprises an adapting tube, inside which a transmitting shaft is rotatably connected. One end of the transmitting shaft connects to a working head. A locking sleeve is secured to the underframe, and the end of the adapting tube movably inserts into the locking sleeve. There is a locking piece designed on the locking sleeve, which allows the locking sleeve to clamp the adapting tube and secure the adapting tube onto the locking sleeve. The present multi-functional garden implement can replace the working head quickly, so that it has functions of cutting, micro tilling, etc.

Rotary mower with cutting deck with bidirectional cutting blades
12096720 · 2024-09-24 · ·

A rotary lawn mower has one or more grass cutting blades that are rotatable in opposite directions about a vertical axis or axes. Each blade is double edged having front and rear cutting edges on each end of the blade. Each blade end has a front sloped face inboard of the front cutting edge and a rear sloped face inboard of the rear cutting edge. These faces create air flow within the cutting chamber when cutting grass regardless of the direction of rotation of the blade. The direction of rotation of each blade is reversed to switch between discharge and mulching modes of operation. A flow director has a curved vertical guide wall that guides the grass clippings through a discharge opening in the discharge mode and that guides the flow of grass clippings away from the discharge opening in the mulching mode.
