Patent number: 12426544Abstract: A riding lawn care vehicle may include a frame, an engine, a steering assembly, a support platform and a front platform. At least a pair of drive wheels may be operably coupled to the frame. The engine is operably coupled to the frame via an engine platform. The engine is disposed between the drive wheels to selectively provide drive power to the drive wheels via respective hydraulic pumps. The steering assembly includes control levers operably coupled to respective drive wheels via the respective hydraulic pumps. The steering assembly enables steering of the lawn care vehicle based on drive speed control of the drive wheels responsive to positioning of the control levers. A neutral position of the control levers may be adjusted via a neutral position adjustment assembly.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2021Date of Patent: September 30, 2025Assignee: HUSQVARNA ABInventors: Corey Fisher, Brian Downing, Joshua Lawrence, Timothy Wicker, Juan Plasencia, Darren Chandler, Jordan Craven, Travis Lyons, Rick Nelson, Braxton Reese, Juan Rodriguez, Jerry Sandy, Eric Tse, Chris Russell, Steven Benedict, Jake Bagwell

Publication number: 20180263182Abstract: An outdoor power machine apparatus includes a prime mover, such as a combustion engine or an electric motor. The outdoor power machine is operable to carry out machine function, e.g. a material handling function. An electronic controller is connected to a machine function and identifies a specific user and controls the machine function based on the identity of the user. The controller may be configured to permit or deny operation of the machine function based on the user's identity. The controller may be configured to operate the machine function in a desired manner based on the user's identity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2015Publication date: September 20, 2018Inventors: Matthew Albinger, Duncan Burns, Jr., Eric C.
