  • Patent number: 6226967
    Abstract: For conveyance of mowed material a conveyor device comprised of a conveyor belt (26) is employed between the mowing mechanism and collection container. The conveyor belt (26) is comprised of two equally paced oppositely driven endless conveyor belts, which run about drive (40, 44) and guide rollers (36, 46), which are mounted on horizontal axles (41, 47, 53). The conveyor belts (32, 34) exhibit two conveyor segments (56, 58) which are parallel and lie opposite to each other, which in the absence of mowed material to be conveyed (22) lie against each other, which receive mowed material (22) from the mowing mechanism (14) and of which the spacing with respect to each other can be increased by the mowed material (22) and of which their respective separation is increased by the spreading force of the mowed material (22) against the spring force (54).

  • Patent number: 6026635
    Abstract: Mowing mechanism for lawn mower with a housing (10) and at least one motor driven blade disc provided in the housing (18, 20), on which cutting blades (20, 24) are secured. Pairs of each other opposing cutting blades (20, 24) extend outwardly from the blade disk and parallel to them, wherein each pair is comprised of an upper blade (22) and a lower blade (24). The cutting blades (22, 24) can exhibit shovel like bent edges (32) for achieving a ventilator effect. When desired two identical blade disks (18, 20) can be provided to each other in the housing, wherein the areas of coverage of the respective blades (22, 24) overlap with each other.
