A walk power mower has a traction drive system that includes a front transmission powering a pair of front wheels and a rear transmission powering a pair of rear wheels. A first one of the transmissions provides forward motion of the mower when it is active and a second one of the transmissions provides rearward motion of the mower when it is active. A slidable handle grip on the handle having a cross bar long enough to be gripped by both hands of the user activates the first one of the transmission when it is slid downwardly on a handle out of a neutral position thereof. The slidable handle grip activates the second one of the transmissions when it is slid upwardly on the handle out of the neutral position.

A walk power mower having a cutting deck supported upon the ground by a front and rear wheel(s). The mower includes a traction drive system incorporating a bidirectional transmission adapted to propel the mower alternatively in both forward and reverse directions. In some embodiments, the mower may include a single bidirectional transmission (e.g., powering only rear wheel(s) or only front wheel(s) of the mower), while in other embodiments, two bidirectional transmissions may be provided to power both the front and the rear wheel(s). In other embodiments, the mower may include a bidirectional transmission powering the rear wheel(s), while the front wheel(s) may be attached to the deck via a caster assembly.

A walk-behind self-propelled working machine includes a main body, an operation switch, and a handle device. The main body includes a moving assembly and a drive motor. The operation switch is connected to the drive motor. The handle device is connected to the main body and includes an operation member, a connecting rod, and a sensing device. The operation member includes a gripping portion for a user to hold. The connecting rod is connected to the main body. The sensing device is configured to sense a thrust that is applied to the handle device to drive the walk-behind self-propelled working machine and further includes a pressure sensor and a pressing member. When the gripping portion receives the thrust, the pressing member applies a force along a preset straight line to the pressure sensor to drive the pressure sensor to deform.

A bag assembly for a utility machine includes a bag for collecting lawn debris and a frame supporting the bag. The frame defines a mouth configured to receive the lawn debris from the utility machine. The frame is expandable to vary a size of the mouth.

A drive system of a lawn mower includes a drive belt, a drive pulley, a drive shaft pulley and an idler pulley. The drive pulley is disposed at a rocking transmission of the lawn mower to transfer drive belt motion to power for a set of wheels of the lawn mower via the rocking transmission when the rocking transmission is engaged. The drive shaft pulley is operably coupled to a drive shaft of the lawn mower to rotate responsive to rotation of the drive shaft. The drive shaft pulley engages the drive belt responsive to engagement of the rocking transmission.
