  • Publication number: 20250351943
    Abstract: According to examples, a backpack power equipment may include a power equipment, a base frame to be worn on a user's back, a connecting member connecting the power equipment to the base frame about an axis at a first height from a bottom of the base frame, a motor controller module mounted to the base frame, and a battery management module mounted to the base frame. The motor controller module and the battery management module are both positioned above the first height. By positioning the motor controller module and the battery management module above the first height, more of the weight may be at a higher position, which may enable a user to maintain a more upright posture during use, which may improve ergonomics of the backpack power equipment disclosed herein.
