Publication number: 20240065147Abstract: An electric lawn apparatus is provided including a frame having an upper body and two side plates extending downwardly from sides of the upper body defining a cavity therein, an operator seat mounted on the upper body, two drive motors secured to the side plates away from the cavity, and a battery compartment formed within the cavity. The battery compartment receives battery packs therein along a rear-front axis of the electric lawn apparatus in a side-by-side orientation, where each battery pack has a maximum rated voltage of approximately 40V to 80V. A ratio of the cumulative energy output of the battery packs to a lateral distance between the drive motors is greater than or equal to approximately 0.23 kW/cm.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: BLACK & DECKER INC.Inventors: Abhisheka MOTURU, Jefrey R. KUCERA, Jason F. BUSSCHAERT, Jesse J. WERSHING, Carl MUSAT, Evan FOREMAN, John B. FOGLE, Elizabeth G. WINK, Kevin L. PULLEY
