Steering bar for lever controlled vehicle
11608104 · 2023-03-21 ·

A steering bar for a lever-controlled vehicle provides for single hand operation of the lever-controlled vehicle. For example, the steering bar couples to the control levers for a zero-turn mower, providing safer, easier operation of the mower and making the mower handicap accessible. The steering bar can easily be installed on any dual steering zero turn mower. Steering is easier because turning it controlled by rotating the steering bar either right or left, with control of forward and reverse movements by pushing or pulling the bar. Speed, turning direction, or motion forward or reverse are all controlled by a single bar with a single hand. The steering bar is coupled with a selectively extensible control shaft to accommodate for the differing displacement length between the control levers during turning movements. The steering bar is coupled with the control levers with a ball and socket joint.

20230073356 · 2023-03-09 ·

A gardening tool, such as a mower, has a main body having an accessory, such as a mowing blade, and a motor for driving the accessory. A handle is rotatably connected to the main body. At least one operation assembly is associated with the handle for being operated by a user to control the motor when the handle is located in a predetermined position. A control system prevents the motor from being controlled by the operation assembly and halts the motor when the handle is located out of the predetermined position.

Work vehicle

In a work vehicle, a pivot axis of an operating lever and a rotary axis of a potentiometer are located on a same axis. An interlocking mechanism includes an input part which inputs power of the operating lever following the operating lever about the pivot axis as a pivot, and an output part which is supported to a rotary operation shaft and outputs power of the input part to the rotary operation shaft. The input part and the output part are operably connected via a connecting pin.
