A traveling vehicle includes: a traveling machine body supported by a pair of left and right driving wheels; a pair of left motor and the right motor configured to independently drive the driving wheels; a riding part disposed behind the traveling machine body and connected to the traveling machine body, and configured to enable riding of a worker; a handle connected to the traveling machine body so as to be swingable left and right with respect to the traveling machine body; a plurality of load sensors for detecting a forward and backward weight shift of the worker who is riding on the riding part; a rotation angle sensor for detecting a leftward and rightward swinging operation amount of the handle; and a controller for controlling operation of the left and right motors based on detection values by the plurality of load sensors and the rotation angle sensor.

An electrical cord management apparatus that is operable to position an electrical cord of a electrically powered device being held by a user such that the electrically powered device is in front of the user wherein the electrical cord management apparatus is configured to maintain the electrical cord extending outward from the electrically powered device behind the user. The electrical cord management device includes a planar body having a first slot and a second slot configured to releasably secure the body to a user. Extending outward from the body away from a user is a support arm. The support arm extends outward and is further mounted to extend at a downward angle so as to maintain a desired position of the electrical cord engaged therewith. The support arm a keeper secured thereto that is operable to releasably secure a portion of an electrical cord therein.

A control system can be used for a walk-behind self-propelled machine that includes a handle, a power source, a drive assembly, and an implement selectively driven by the power source. The control system can include a touch sensor located on the handle configured to transmit a contact signal indicative of an operator of the walk-behind self-propelled machine physically contacting the handle at a predetermined location. The system can further include a controller that is in electrical communication with the touch sensor and configured to enable the power source to drive the implement, such as a lawnmower blade, when the controller receives the contact signal.

A mower includes a main body, a height adjustment motor, a gear assembly, a clutch assembly and a cutter motor assembly. The height adjustment motor drives the gear assembly to rotate through the clutch assembly. The clutch assembly includes a connecting shaft movably connected with the height adjustment motor to achieve a separation and an engagement of the height adjustment motor and the gear assembly. The cutter motor assembly includes an adjustment rod, the adjustment rod is connected with the gear assembly and can be lifted and lowered reciprocally under a drive of the gear assembly to drive a blade to be lifted and lowered reciprocally. The adjustment rod is provided with an end part abutting the gear assembly to limit a rotation of the gear assembly, so that the height adjustment motor is separated from the connecting shaft.
