A walk reel mower has a traction frame that carries at least one ground engaging member operatively powered by a prime mover. A rotatable cutting reel is operatively powered by the prime mower for pushing grass against a bedknife to cut the grass. A handle assembly is used to guide and manipulate the mower, and a traction bail on the handle assembly disengages and engages the traction drive. The traction bail is movable between first and second positions that have a range of motion large enough to permit the user to move the control into at least one intermediate position to produce a reduced ground speed greater than zero but less than the nominal ground speed.

A walk reel mower has a pivotal rear traction drum that can be selectively disposed in two different mowing positions that allow a single mower to cut grass on golf course greens as well as tee boxes with no degradation in cutting or power performance. The reel cutting unit has a pivotal rear shield to allow the rear shield to be pivotally adjusted to maintain its radial spacing relative to the orbit of the reel at a desired amount as the reel diameter decreases due to wear.

An electric working machine in one aspect of the present disclosure includes a motor, an information output circuit, a control circuit, and a drive stop circuit. The information output circuit outputs state information that indicates a state of the electric working machine. The control circuit executes a motor control process in accordance with a computer program. The drive stop circuit executes a motor stop operation. The motor stop operation includes disabling a permission to drive the motor by the control circuit to stop the motor in response to the state information indicating that the motor should be stopped. The motor stop operation is implemented by hardware.

An improved grass-discharging-passage stirring and cutting mechanism for a rear shaft at a bottom of a lawn mower. Ultra-thin blades are adopted since a grass-discharging passage is very narrow and small while many stirring and cutting rods and blades are used. The blade is firstly placed into mixed buried soil, is subjected to thermal treatment, is scanned by variable-frequency electromagnetic field and laser, and is subjected to electromagnetic co-penetration heat treatment under platinum-rhodium catalysis; then the blade is subjected to organic post-treatment, is heated at a co-penetration turning point of 723 C., and then quenched in organic matter of horse urine; a noise-elimination inner shaft of the rear shaft of the lawn mower is hollow and has a plurality of noise-elimination wedges for facilitating noise elimination and reduction. The improved mechanism may be powered directly by a three-stage planetary retarder connected to an electric motor.

An electric walk behind greens mower includes an electric reel motor rotating a cutting reel; an electric traction motor rotating at least one traction drive roller; and an electronic control unit commanding the electric traction motor and the electric reel motor to rotate at reduced speeds during a turn if an electronic signal indicates a deviation from a normal walk speed. The electronic control unit also may determine if the actual speed of the electric traction motor is substantially less than the speed specified by a speed lever, and then command the electric reel motor and the electric traction motor to rotate at a lower speed than specified by the speed lever. The electric walk behind greens mower also may include a battery management system that activates a low voltage power supply if a key switch is turned from the off position to the run position, and that provides a start signal to an electronic control unit if the key switch is momentarily turned from the run position to the start position whereby the electronic control unit activates a high voltage power supply to the electric reel motor and the electric traction motor.

The reel cutting unit has a pivotal rear shield to allow the rear shield to be pivotally adjusted to maintain its radial spacing relative to the orbit of the reel at a desired amount as the reel diameter decreases due to wear. The ground speed of the walk reel mower is automatically slowed during turns of the mower by a mechanical cable assembly that links a user operable throttle control and throttle reducing control to a prime mover throttle. Finally, the leverage provided by the mower handle assembly when placed in a lowered position is used by the user to more easily deploy a kickstand.

A walk reel mower has a traction frame that carries a handle assembly to accommodate users of different heights. A pivotal bail on the handle assembly allows the user to slip a traction clutch to temporarily slow the mower down when turning the mower around. The handle assembly has a resilient isolator that acts in shear to permit the traction frame of the mower to maintain the quality and the height of cut when operated by users having a heavy downpressure touch on the handle assembly. A fixed head reel cutting unit or a flex head reel cutting unit can be interchangeably carried on the traction frame using a common mount therefor. Backlapping can be accomplished in situ by using an idler wheel between a driven transport wheel and the reel of the cutting unit to reverse the direction of the reel.

The present invention provides an embedded-outer rotor motor direct driven mower driving wheel and a mower. The embedded-outer rotor motor direct driven mower driving wheel comprises a driving wheel main body formed by the assembling of a wheel side cover I, a wheel side cover II, and a wheel body sandwiched between the wheel side cover I and the wheel side cover II, the wheel side cover I, the wheel side cover II and the wheel body are enclosed to define a cavity, an outer rotor motor is mounted in the cavity, an outer rotor portion of the outer rotor motor is fixedly arranged relative to the driving wheel main body, an internal stator portion of the outer rotor motor is provided with a fixed shaft penetrating through the wheel side cover I and extending out of the driving wheel main body, and the wheel side cover I is provided with a shaft hole I allowing the fixed shaft to penetrate through. The present invention arranges the outer rotor motor inside the driving wheel and directly drives the mower driving wheel through the outer rotor motor, thus, transmission precision and reliability are good, and the inner space of the mower is more reasonable.
