A single-axis agricultural machine with continuous speed variation and independent power take-off includes an internal combustion engine, a clutch assembly, wheels, a power take-off for work tools controlled by a gearbox, and a guide handlebar with controls. A primary shaft extends from the clutch assembly and controls a gear reduction, at the output of which a coupling transmits the motion to a shaft of the power take-off. A hydrostatic assembly draws motion from the internal combustion engine through the clutch assembly, a first kinematic chain being coupled thereto, and is connected to a second kinematic chain that retracts in the gearbox and that controls an axle of the wheels through a final reduction. Three shaft assemblies transmit motion respectively from the engine toward the power take-off, from the engine toward the hydrostatic pump, from the hydrostatic motor to the final reduction, and from the final reduction toward the wheel axle, the three shaft assemblies being arranged orthogonal to each other.

A vertical tine tiller having vertically oriented tine assemblies that are configured to rotate about vertical axes is provided. The tiller includes a power source that drives a horizontally-aligned driveshaft, which can selectively drive a transmission assembly. Horizontal rotation of the driveshaft is directly transferred into vertical rotation of a pair of drive rods to which the tine assemblies are attached.

Systems and methods for tilling ground material are provided. According to one embodiment, a tiller system is provided comprising two coiled conical blades that penetrate ground material to provide both forward propulsion and tillage of the ground material. An operator of the tiller system can adjust the angle at which the coiled conical blades penetrate the ground material to achieve an optimal balance of forward propulsion, stability, and tillage of the ground material.

A walk behind power equipment device includes a frame (or housing), an engine supported at least in part by the frame or housing, a mobility assembly operably coupled to the frame and to the engine to provide mobility of the walk behind power equipment device responsive to operation of the engine, a working assembly and a handle assembly. The working assembly is operably coupled to the frame and to the engine to facilitate performance of a working function of the walk behind power equipment device responsive to operation of the engine. The handle assembly is operably coupled to the frame via a handle coupler to provide steering inputs responsive to which the mobility assembly moves the walk behind power equipment device via a handle apparatus of the handle assembly. The handle coupler is configured to provide at least vibration isolation and handle apparatus orientation adjustment.

An agricultural machine includes an engine for power delivery, at least one axle provided with two wheels, a handlebar and a power take-off. The agricultural machine further includes a hydromechanical clutch group interposed between the engine and the at least one axle and a first and a second lever associated with the handlebar controlling the hydromechanical clutch group. The hydromechanical clutch group includes a actuation piston hydraulically controlled by the first and second lever movable between a first raised position, in which the actuation piston imposes to the hydromechanical clutch group the transmission of the motion from the engine to the wheels and to the tool, and a second lowered position in which the actuation piston frees the hydromechanical clutch group by kinematically disconnecting the engine from the wheels and the tool.

A facility agricultural laser measure and control motor rotary tillage flattening machine includes a front axle part, a lifting equipment, a rotary tillage component, a battery pack, a rear axle steering part, a rotary flattening component and a rack. A front axle housing connects with the rack. The rotary tillage component comprises a DC motor, a gearbox and a rotary tillage blade. The DC motor connects with the gearbox through transmission. An output shaft of the gearbox connects with the rotary tillage blade. The rear axle steering part includes a rotary seat, a rotary shaft, a steering handlebar, a rear axle stand and squirrel-cage hubs. An upper end of the rotary shaft is equipped with a steering handlebar. The rear axle stand is equipped with two squirrel-cage hubs through a supporting axle. The rotary flattening component connects with the rack through an electromotive handspike and a flexible torsion bar.

The disclosed technology relate to a device and system that include an outdoor power equipment power unit or cart configured to releasably couple a number of different interchangeable attachments or work implements to a common power unit, where some attachments include and/or require operator presence control, while other attachments do not include and/or require operator presence control. The outdoor power equipment power unit includes a power transfer coupling member operatively coupled to the drive shaft and configured to transfer rotational power to the associated attachment; and an operator presence actuation member operatively coupled to the operator presence control member, the operator presence actuation member configured to rotate in response to user actuation of the operator presence control member.

A walk-behind working tool having a frame, a power source, and a handle attached to the frame is provided. The working tool includes at least one axle operatively connected to the frame and a pair of wheel assemblies connected to the axle. The wheel assemblies include a hub, a rim, a tire, and a flexible vibration dampening assembly that operatively connects the hub and rim, wherein the dampening assembly is configured to reduce the vibration transferred between the rim and hub and through the handle to the operator. The dampening assembly includes a plurality of elastic elements having a spring constant for smoothing out movement of the frame when the working tool is guided over rough or uneven ground.

A driveline assembly for equipment, such as a tiller, includes a pair of counter-rotating bevel gears supported on a wheel shaft and rotatable relative to the wheel shaft. The driveline assembly includes a first slider gear movable between a first position in which the first slider gear is engaged with a first bevel gear of the pair of bevel gears, and a second position in which the first slider gear is engaged with a second bevel gear of the pair of bevel gears. When the first slider gear is engaged with the first bevel gear, the first bevel gear becomes operatively connected to a rotatable tine shaft to rotate tines in a first direction. When the first slider gear is engaged with the second bevel gear, the second bevel gear becomes operatively connected to the rotatable tine shaft to rotate the tines in a second direction opposite the first direction.

The disclosed technology relate to a device and system that include an outdoor power equipment power unit or cart configured to releasably couple a number of different interchangeable attachments or work implements to a common power unit, where some attachments include and/or require operator presence control, while other attachments do not include and/or require operator presence control. The outdoor power equipment power unit includes a power transfer coupling member operatively coupled to the drive shaft and configured to transfer rotational power to the associated attachment; and an operator presence actuation member operatively coupled to the operator presence control member, the operator presence actuation member configured to rotate in response to user actuation of the operator presence control member.
