A riding type vehicle has a driving source, a left wheel and a right wheel, a transmission configured to receive power from the driving source to independently operate and drive the left wheel and the right wheel with regard to a rotation direction and a rotation speed, and caster wheels separately provided in a front-rear direction with respect to the left wheel and the right wheel, the riding type vehicle including two first sensors arranged on both left and right sides more to a front side than a rear end of the vehicle, the two first sensors configured to detect an obstacle target located on a rear side, the obstacle target being a target becoming an obstacle at the time of reversing or turning.

Embodiments of the present invention relates to a self-moving apparatus and a method for controlling same, the self-moving apparatus including: a housing; a movement module for driving the housing to move; an ultrasonic module configured to transmit an ultrasonic signal and receive an echo signal formed through reflection of an obstacle; and a control module installed on the housing and connected to the ultrasonic module, to implement an ultrasonic detection function by processing the echo signal, thereby controlling a movement mode of the movement module. The control module can control disabling of the ultrasonic detection function according to a received preset signal.

Mowers are provided with a safety system to prevent obstacles, such as animals, located in the field from being hit by cutters of the mower. The safety system includes a control unit and at least one detector to detect the obstacle and then provide a warning signal to the control unit, when the obstacle is detected. The control unit provides a separation signal to at least one safety device in response to receiving the warning signal, and the at least one safety device causes separation between the obstacle and the at least one cutter in response to receiving the separation signal. The safety device may be at least one shield which is movable between a retracted position and a protecting position in which it extends in front of the at least one cutter to prevent contact between the at least one cutter and the obstacle.

The present invention relates to an auxiliary wheel for a lawn mower which includes an installation unit coupled to a main body of a lawn mower, a swing unit coupled to the installation unit to be swingable in one direction or the other direction, a wheel unit connected to the swing unit to be swingable with the swing unit, and a fixing unit installed on an outer portion of the installation unit and configured to fix the swing unit to be swingable in the other direction. When the wheel unit swings in the one direction, the main body is pressed against the ground, and when the wheel unit swings in the other direction, the main body is spaced apart from the ground.

A controller on a harvester vehicle is arranged to automatically identify a header in electrical communication with the vehicle upon key activation of the harvester vehicle. Programming instructions on the controller can generate notifications to the user based upon a state of activation of the float mechanism and the state of header identity detection. The controller also prompts the user to confirm the identity of the header if the detected identity of the header has changed. The controller also uses header identity to log usage hours of the header on the computer controller in association with the identity of the header such that maintenance schedules for a plurality of different headers interchangeably used on a common harvester vehicle can be tracked.

An agricultural header includes: a header frame; at least one cutting unit carried by the header frame and including a cutting element and a driveshaft coupled to the cutting element; and a gearbox configured to drive the cutting element. The gearbox includes a gearbox output rotatably coupled to the driveshaft; and a clutch including an intermediate shaft and at least one clutch shoe rotatably coupled to the intermediate shaft and displaceable between a non-engaging position where the at least one clutch shoe does not engage the gearbox output and an engaging position where the at least one clutch shoe engages the gearbox output. The clutch is configured such that the at least one clutch shoe displaces to the engaging position when a rotational speed of the intermediate shaft reaches a threshold value.

A riding type vehicle has a driving source, a left wheel and a right wheel, a transmission configured to receive power from the driving source to independently operate and drive the left wheel and the right wheel with regard to a rotation direction and a rotation speed, and caster wheels separately provided in a front-rear direction with respect to the left wheel and the right wheel, the riding type vehicle including two first sensors arranged on both left and right sides more to a front side than a rear end of the vehicle, the two first sensors configured to detect an obstacle target located on a rear side, the obstacle target being a target becoming an obstacle at the time of reversing or turning.

A radio-controlled mower with a frame (2), a motor unit (4), rolling bodies (3) configured to move said frame (2) on an area of ground (T), a central cutting unit (5), and one or more side cutting units (6; 6A, 6B); wherein said frame (2) and each side cutting unit (6; 6A; 6B) are mutually movable.

Disclosed is a mobile robot configured to cut lawn in a work area. The mobile robot may include a main body, a weight sensing sensor, an obstacle sensing sensor, a blade, and a processor. The mobile robot may execute an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm and/or a machine learning algorithm, and perform communication with other electronic devices in a 5G communication environment. As a result, it is possible to enhance user convenience.
