An electrically actuated mulch control lever includes an upper plate and a lower plate pivotably mounted together on a top surface of a mower deck. A compression spring is retained between the upper plate and the lower plate urging the upper plate and the lower plate to pivot together. An electric linear actuator is connected to one of the plates, and a mulch gate hinge is attached to the other plate.

A head 1 for brush cutter suitable for cutting grass and herbaceous plants having a support element 2, rotatable about a vertical axis Y-Y thereof, connected to a series of first pins 3 and a series of second pins 4. The series of first pins 3 is coupled to a first plurality of cutting elements 5 and the series of second pins 4 is coupled to a second plurality of cutting elements 6.

Said first plurality of cutting elements 5 defines a cutting plane P1 and said second plurality of cutting elements defines a second cutting plane P2, spaced apart from the previous one. The first and second plurality of cutting elements 5, 6 having, over an angular sector of 360° , an alternating arrangement.

A mulch diverting apparatus includes a panel configured to be coupled with a lawnmower. The panel includes a body portion defining a first side, a second side, an upper side, and a lateral surface configured to face the lawnmower. A first projection extends from the lateral surface of the body portion. The first projection extends toward the first side of the panel. A second projection extends from the lateral surface of the body portion. The second projection extends toward the second side of the body portion. A third projection extends from the lateral surface of the body portion. The third projection defines an orifice. A fourth projection extends from the lateral surface of the body portion. The fourth projection includes an arm extending from the body portion.

A mulch gate control lever includes a handle that moves a mulch gate on a vertical pivot axis between a first mulching position and a second side discharge position. A torsion spring biases the handle to move into a first position slot at a first end of a slotted bracket to retain the mulch gate at the first mulching position, and into a second position slot at a second end of the slotted bracket to retain the mulch gate at the second side discharge position.

A convertible lawnmower includes a housing and a mulching system. The housing includes a discharge opening. The mulching system includes a mounting ring and a shutter ring. The mounting ring is coupled substantially concentrically to the housing and includes an upper surface, a lower surface, and a sidewall that extends substantially axially therebetween. The sidewall is formed with a retaining groove and at least one installation groove. The retaining groove extends at least partially circumferentially within an inner surface of the sidewall and each installation groove extends axially from the lower surface to the retaining groove. The shutter ring is only coupled to mounting ring via the retaining groove such that the shutter ring is selectively shiftable between a mulching mode and a discharge mode.

The invention relates to a mower having a removable mower deck, and a removable attachment which includes a hopper and conveyor assembly for discharging particulate material from the hopper. The attachment and mower deck may be mounted on the frame of the unit together or separately. The attachment may be configured for rapid mounting and dismounting on the frame of the mower.

The invention provides a lawn mower, which comprises a power assembly, a cutting blade driven by the power assembly, and a cover, wherein the cover comprises a main body, a rear cover pivotally connected to the rear of the main body, and a partition portion dividing the main body into a cutting cavity and a grass-collecting cavity, the partition portion comprising a baffle, the rear cover is selectively pivotal between an open position and a closed position. The baffle is driven by the rear cover.

A lawn debris vacuum machine having a mobile housing with an inlet chute and a discharge chute, and a motor mounted on the housing that is connected for rotatably driving a vacuum impeller disposed in the housing between the inlet chute and the discharge chute. A thrasher protrudes into the inlet chute and is rotatably driven from the motor to break up debris in the inlet chute which would otherwise be sufficiently large enough to block the inlet chute. A rotating brush is mounted to the housing at the opening of the inlet chute for brushing debris into the inlet chute. The brush is rotatably driven in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the machine's progress.

A convertible lawnmower with a mulching mode and a discharge mode includes a housing and a mulching system. The housing includes a discharge opening. The mulching system includes a mounting ring and a shutter ring. The mounting ring is coupled substantially concentrically to the housing and includes an upper surface, a lower surface, and a sidewall that extends substantially axially therebetween. The sidewall is formed with a retaining groove and at least one installation groove. The retaining groove extends at least partially circumferentially within an inner surface of the sidewall and each installation groove extends axially from the lower surface to the retaining groove. The shutter ring is only coupled to mounting ring via the retaining groove such that the shutter ring is selectively shiftable between a mulching mode and a discharge mode.

A lawn mower may include: a blade configured to cut grass; a grass collection unit configured to collect the grass cut by the blade; and a fan configured to generate an air flow that blows the grass cut by the blade toward the grass collection unit. The grass may include heavy grass cut long by the blade and light grass cut short by the blade. Among the heavy grass and the light grass having entered the grass collection unit, the grass collection unit may be configured to collect the heavy grass and discharge the light grass out of the grass collection unit.
