A battery pack for an electric work vehicle includes: a box-shaped housing; a transport wheel provided to the housing; a transport handle; a bracket fixed to the housing; a swing shaft for swingably connecting the transport handle and the bracket, between a vertical posture in which the transport handle extends upward from the housing and a horizontal posture in which the transport handle lies above the housing; and a vertical socket for receiving a base end part of the transport handle of the vertical posture to resist a torque of the transport handle caused during an operation.

In an electric work vehicle, a power feeding assembly which connects a battery device to a power controller unit so as to feed power includes a fixed connector which is fixed to the battery device and electrically connected to the battery device, a cable harness connected to a power controller unit, and a free connector which is connected to an end of the cable harness and connectable to a fixed connector, and a connecting operation tool is configured to be movable the free connector between the connecting position in which the free connector is connected to the fixed connector and the detaching position.

A steering system for a mower can include a wheel-specific driving unit for each wheel and a controller for providing control signals to each wheel-specific driving unit to thereby cause each wheel to be independently rotated at a different speed during a turn. By independently rotating each wheel, the mower can complete a turn without damaging the grass. The controller may also provide control signals to cause each steerable wheel to be positioned in a different wheel direction during the turn.

A work vehicle includes a main body frame and left and right axle drive devices that drive left and right rear wheels. The axle drive devices include left and right electric motors that are housed and fixed in a motor housing that is fixed to the main body frame and left and right gear mechanisms that are housed in gear housings that are fixed to left and right ends of the motor housing and are connected to the respective electric motors to transmit power. A motor shaft of each of the electric motors rotates the corresponding wheel via the corresponding axle-integrated rotating member including the axle. The motor shaft is also arranged to overlap, along the axial direction, with an inner portion of a circumscribing circle of a maximum outer diameter portion of the corresponding axle-integrated rotating member.

A hydrostatic transmission subassembly for a vehicle includes an adapter manifold and a hydraulic pump mounted to the adapter manifold. The pump includes a pump housing and a pump porting manifold including pump porting for communicating fluid to and from the pump. The adapter manifold may include a mounting section adapted for mounting to the vehicle and a fluid interface section extending from the mounting section. The fluid interface section includes a pump interface having pump interface porting, in which the pump interface engages with the pump porting manifold to fluidly connect the pump interface porting with the pump porting. When the mounting manifold is mounted to the vehicle via the mounting section, the mounting manifold supports the hydraulic pump. The fluid interface section also includes a motor interface having motor interface porting for fluidly connecting to a motor, which enables the mounting manifold to fluidly connect the pump and motor.

An electric work vehicle includes: a carrier 32 in which a battery can be stored and a support portion 40 is provided; a carrier storage portion provided in a vehicle body and capable of holding the carrier 32; a guide portion 21, 22 that is capable of supporting, via the support portion 40, the carrier 32 operated so as to be lifted from the ground, in a state in which the carrier is lifted from the ground, and guiding the carrier 32 toward the carrier storage portion; and a positioning portion 42 configured to, when the carrier 32 placed on the ground is operated so as to be lifted and the support portion 40 has reached a position at which the support portion 40 can be supported by the guide portion 21, 22, stop the operation of lifting the carrier 32.

A riding lawn mower comprising, a pair of rear drive wheels, a pair of front wheels, a deck positioned between the pair of front wheels and the pair of rear drive wheels, a rotatable cutting blade, and multiple battery packs removably coupled to the riding lawn mower and structured to provide power to the riding lawn mower, each battery pack graspable and removable by a user, wherein the multiple battery packs jointly provide power to the riding lawn mower.

A coolant pump assembly having a combined hydraulic drive pump and a coolant circulating pump is disclosed herein, for use in connection with a utility vehicle, such as a ride-on or stand-on mower. Such a vehicle includes at least one combination pump assembly that utilizes a first fluid circuit to hydraulically drive a wheel of the vehicle and a second fluid circuit to cool one or more vehicle components.

A zero turning radius mower has an internal combustion engine mounted transversely on a pair of longitudinal frame members behind an operator seat and a pair of rear drive wheels. The engine rotates a flywheel on a horizontal axis perpendicular to the longitudinal frame members. A gearbox is mounted to one of the longitudinal frame members, with a horizontal input shaft driven by the engine and a vertical output shaft engaging one or more rubber belts. A vent passage is provided through the output shaft of the gearbox and between a hub of a rotary fan and the output shaft.

The invention provides a mower, which comprises a battery package assembly and a frame for bearing the battery package assembly; the battery package assembly comprises a battery package and a fixing plate, the battery package is fixed on the fixing plate, a plurality of first pulleys are arranged at the bottom of the fixing plate, and the first pulleys are distributed along the installation direction of the battery package assembly. The frame comprises a supporting surface, and the first pulleys are supported on the supporting surface. The battery package assembly of the lawn mower moves on the supporting surface in a rolling mode, generated friction force is small, and convenience and labor saving can be achieved for the mounting and dismounting processes of the battery package assembly.
