An apparatus, system and method of securing attachments to a utility vehicle, particularly a stand-on, zero-turn mower. The apparatus includes an A-shaped mounting assembly having a base with first and second ends and a tubular member extending outwardly from the first end. The tubular member defines a bore that receives a shaft extending from the attachment. The mounting assembly is positioned vertically above a mower deck but on an opposite side of the frame of the mower relative thereto. The second end of the mounting assembly and part of the mower deck are secured to the frame using the same connectors. A hydraulic actuator engages a forwardmost end of the assembly and is actuatable to raise or lower the assembly relative to the frame, pivoting the assembly about the connectors. The attachment and mower deck are substantially simultaneously operable to perform separate landscaping tasks while the mower moves across a surface.

A grass mowing machine for high power applications includes a controller monitoring a total implement load of multiple implements connected to lift arms on a grass mowing machine. The controller determines if the total implement load consistently exceeds available power. If the total implement load consistently exceeds available power, the controller disables at least one but not all of the implements, and provides a signal to at least one but not all of the lift arms to raise the implements.

An autonomously robotic machine for performing one or more agricultural operations. The machine includes a frame having a length and an adjustable width. A plurality of ground-engaging mechanisms are coupled to the frame for propelling the machine in a direction of travel. The machine includes a controller, a power-generating device, and a generator. The controller controls the machine, and the generator receives mechanical power from the power-generating device and produces electrical power. A docking assembly is coupled to the frame. The docking assembly includes a power unit and at least one coupler for coupling to any one of a plurality of agricultural implements.

A lawn mower comprises a power assembly, a cutting blade driven by the power assembly, and a cover, wherein the cover comprises a main body, a rear cover pivotally connected to the rear of the main body, and a partition portion dividing the main body into a cutting cavity and a grass-collecting cavity, the partition portion comprising a baffle, the rear cover is selectively pivotal between an open position and a closed position. The baffle is driven by the rear cover.

Provided is an intelligent garden robot with multifunctional modules. By providing functional components that are driven by a driving device to automatically carry out snow sweeping, mowing or leaf blowing, users can connect different functional components to traveling component when they need to carry out snow sweeping, mowing or leaf blowing, and can replace the functional components on the traveling component at any time. The functions of snow sweeping, mowing and leaf blowing are integrated into the intelligent garden robot with multifunctional modules. During the actual application process, the functional modules are driven along the cleaning path by the traveling components, and the snow sweeping, mowing and leaf blowing operations can be automatically completed according to user's needs, replacing the traditional method of manual cleaning. The applicability of the intelligent garden robot with multifunctional modules is improved while improving the efficiency of garden cleaning and reducing labor costs.

A modular equipment assembly may include a base unit and a secondary front unit. The base unit may include a base frame, a motor, a tool interface, one or more wheels, and a handle. The motor may be mounted on the base frame. The tool interface may be disposed within the base frame in mechanical communication with the motor to removably attach a first tool head to the base frame. The one or more wheels may be mounted to the base frame apart from the movable tool to support the base unit. The handle may be mounted to and extend rearwardly from the base frame. The secondary front unit may be removably attached to the base unit, the secondary front unit may include a secondary front frame selectively disposed in front of the base frame forward from the tool interface to move with the base unit.

An apparatus, system and method of securing attachments to a utility vehicle, particularly a stand-on, zero-turn mower. The apparatus includes an A-shaped mounting assembly having a base with first and second ends and a tubular member extending outwardly from the first end. The tubular member defines a bore that receives a shaft extending from the attachment. The mounting assembly is positioned vertically above a mower deck but on an opposite side of the frame of the mower. The second end of the mounting assembly and part of the mower deck are secured to the frame using the same connectors. A hydraulic actuator engages a forwardmost end of the assembly and is actuatable to raise or lower the assembly relative to the frame, pivoting the assembly about the connectors. The attachment and mower deck are substantially simultaneously operable to perform separate landscaping tasks while the mower moves across a surface.
