Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for worksite equipment path planning is provided. An example system may include an autonomous vehicle configured to operate a camera and position sensor to capture image data associated with a worksite. The system may also include a worksite analysis engine comprising processing circuitry configured to receive the image data of the worksite captured by the autonomous vehicle and generate a virtual layout of the worksite based on the image data. The worksite analysis engine may also receive equipment data and crew data, and generate a workflow based on the virtual layout, the equipment data, and the crew data. The workflow may include workflow assignments for each crew member at the worksite, each workflow assignment indicating a task, equipment to perform the task, and an equipment path for the task.

Abstract: A snow removal device includes a frame, an engine supported at least in part by the frame, a mobility assembly and a bucket assembly. The mobility assembly is operably coupled to the frame and the engine to provide mobility of the snow removal device responsive at least in part to operation of the engine. The bucket assembly is operably coupled to the frame and houses a material conveyor and an impeller, each of which operate via power from the engine to provide snow removal operations. The bucket assembly includes one of each of a first stage housing, an impeller housing, and a discharge chute base. The bucket assembly is formed such that at least two among the first stage housing, the impeller housing, or the discharge chute base are integrally molded or cast as a single unitary component.

Abstract: A lawn mower includes a cutting device placed underneath a mower deck housing that surrounds the cutting device. The lawn mower further comprises a grass outlet in the mower deck housing. The outlet is leading cut grass via a discharge chute to a bag where the grass is collected. The end of the discharge chute is provided with a door that closes the discharge chute when the bag is removed from the lawn mower. The door is rotatable around an axis parallel to the axial direction of the discharge chute and automatically rotated to not cover the end of the discharge chute when the bag is secured to the lawn mower.
