Abstract: An auxiliary edge trimmer apparatus is attached to a lawnmower and includes a flywheel drive wheel portion connected to the lawnmower drive shaft. An attachment assembly is connected onto portions of the lower housing wall of the blade housing of the lawnmower. A trimmer assembly is attached to the attachment assembly and includes a bearing portion connected to the attachment assembly, a rotatable shaft assembly received by the bearing portion, a driven wheel connected to a proximal end of the rotatable shaft assembly, and a trimmer blade connected to a distal end of the rotatable shaft assembly. In accordance with an alternatively preferred embodiment of the invention, a manually actuatable control cable is attached through suitable structure to the drive shaft supported on the lawnmower housing between the drive wheel and the auxiliary trimmer apparatus to control engagement and disengagement thereof.

Abstract: An edger attachment apparatus is provided for attaching to a drive-shaft-to-attachment coupling of a string trimmer device after the string trimmer head has been detached from the drive-shaft-to-attachment coupling. A relatively small diameter, power transmission driving gear is driven by an edger driven shaft. A relatively large diameter, power receiver gear is driven by the relatively small diameter, power transmission driving gear. A blade assembly drive shaft is connected to the relatively large diameter, power receiver gear. An edger blade assembly is driven by the blade assembly drive shaft. A wheel assembly support is attached to the gear housing, and a wheel assembly is connected to the wheel assembly support. In one embodiment, a height adjustment assembly is provided. In another embodiment, a tilt adjustment assembly is provided. In another embodiment, both a height adjustment assembly and a tilt adjustment assembly are provided.

Abstract: A hand-holdable trimmer for garden and lawn applications has an elongated housing defining an air passage extending from the trimmer's rotating trimmer head to a collection container for cuttings mounted distally on the housing. An impeller wheel driven by the trimmer motor causes air to flow under positive pressure from the region surrounding the trimmer head through the housing air passage to eventually deliver the trimmer cuttings to the collection container. A dual, axially adjustable trimmer head assembly also is provided to more efficiently cut grass, weeds, etc. into small pieces capable of being easily transferred to the collection container.
