The present application discloses an integrated trimmer device that is attached to the existing wheel fixture of a lawnmower. The integrated trimmer device may be used as a string trimmer or as a lawn edger. There is an ongoing desire by those in the art to increase the efficiency of mowing and trimming activities. Combining the two activities into one task helps provide for such need.

An arbor adapter for converting a common angle grinder to a compact line trimmer is disclosed. The trimmer, as converted, is powerful, efficient, and as safe as any of the typical uses for angle grinders. The prototype line trimmer is 13″ in length and may be operated with one hand if desired. Conventional line trimmers are in the 66″ range, or five times the length of the present invention. The invention requires no alteration of the factory angle grinder and guard. The invention could be modified as to material composition yet still meet the original scope and claims.

A cutting head body for an agricultural machine, such as a mower or a trimmer, is configured to receive a cutting line for cutting weeds, grass, or other materials. The cutting head body includes an inlet area having a cavity with a node location configured to receive a node of a cutting line, and an outlet area having a cavity configured to open to an exterior of the cutting head body. The cutting head body may include a first passageway connecting the inlet area to the outlet area and a second passageway connecting the inlet area to the outlet area. The cutting head body is rotatable about a rotational axis to move the cutting line. In some embodiments, the cutting head body is fixed to a rotatable shaft. In some embodiments, the cutting head body rotates about a fixed shaft.

A handheld lawn maintenance tool having a power head to which an adapter is attachable to allow both battery-powered and gasoline-powered working attachments to be attached thereto. The power head includes a power source, integrated first and second handles, a power generator, and a first attachment mechanism to which the adapter and/or working attachments are attachable.

The trimmer head (1) includes a housing (3) and a spool (5) that can be housed in the housing. A pair of ring members (35A, 35B) with teeth inclined at opposite inclinations can be selectively coupled to the head, to engage the trimmer head (1) in combination with trimmer apparatuses having engine that rotates selectively in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction.

A spool and a trimmer head. The trimmer head includes a housing defining a cavity and rotatable about an axis. A spool is supported in the cavity and operable to support line to be dispensed. The spool is movable along the axis relative to the housing, and the spool and the housing define cooperating conical surfaces to center the spool during movement of the spool toward and in a position relative to the housing.

A trimmer line spool has first and second spool chambers for a trimmer line. First and second holder pairs are provided. The first holder pair has first and second trimmer line holders associated with the first spool chamber and the second spool chamber, respectively. The second holder pair has first and second trimmer line holders associated with the first spool chamber and the second spool chamber, respectively. The trimmer line holders of the first holder pair each have a first opening for the trimmer line. The trimmer line holders of the second holder pair each have a second opening for the trimmer line. A diameter of the first openings is larger than a diameter of the second openings. The first openings are positioned at an angle of 150° to 210° to each other. The second openings are positioned at an angle of 150° to 210° to each other.

Ergonomic gripping mechanisms of battery-operated electric cutting apparatus are provided. The electric cutting apparatus may include a cantilevered cutting head, an adjustable telescoping shaft, a rear grip portion, a pistol grip, and a forearm shaft. The adjustable telescoping shaft may be pivotally connected to the cantilevered cutting head. The rear grip portion may have a first end connected to the adjustable telescoping shaft. The pistol grip may have a first end extending at a first angle from the second end of the rear grip portion. The forearm shaft may extend from the second end of the pistol grip at a second angle. The forearm shaft may have a top side comprising a forearm pad having an exterior surface configured to receive a forearm of a user. The exterior surface of the forearm pad may be parallel to an axis defined by a longitudinal extension of the adjustable telescoping shaft.

One apparatus for providing high-resolution CSI feedback includes a processor and a radio transceiver. The processor computes sets of amplitude and phase parameters for one or more channel compression matrices. Here, each channel compression matrix corresponds to one transmission layer of a multiple-layer transmission, where each channel compression matrix is comprised of one or more column vectors. The radio transceiver sends indications of the sets of amplitude and phase parameters to one or more network entities is a mobile communication network.
