Abstract: A lawn mower includes a blade, a motor connected to the blade, and a housing storing the blade in the housing and is configured to mow grass underneath the housing. The lawn mower includes a grass container to contain the mowed grass and a connecting member that connects the housing to the grass container. The housing is provided with a ceiling opening communicating with a flow path inside the connecting member. The ceiling opening overlaps with a region corresponding to a rotation range, of the blade, projected upward along a drive shaft.

Abstract: A work machine comprises, a drive source, a working unit that includes a rotary member rotated by the drive source and performs a predetermined work by rotation of the rotary member, and a control unit that controls the drive source so that output of the rotary member partially takes different values in one rotation of the rotary member.

Abstract: A prime mover of a mower that is a work machine comprises: a motor having a motor rotation shaft extended along a substantially vertical direction, and a motor housing disposed coaxially with the motor rotation shaft; a centrifugal fan disposed above the motor; and a motor cover that accommodates the motor and the centrifugal fan so as to extend to the upper end of a side part of the centrifugal fan. A cooling air inlet is formed in the motor housing, the centrifugal fan having a base part provided above the cooling air inlet, and the outer diameter of the base part being greater than the outer diameter of the cooling air inlet.

Abstract: A cutter blade for a lawn mower has an upper blade and a lower blade. The upper blade has an upper blade base and an upper outer end positioned above and further radially outward than the upper blade base. The lower blade has a lower blade base and a mowing section positioned below and further radially outward than the lower blade base. The upper blade base overlaps the lower blade base.

Abstract: A mower capable of reducing noise generated by rotation of a cutter blade is provided. A mower is provided with an upper cutter blade and a lower cutter blade (15) inside a housing. The lower cutter blade has a wing portion (42) and a wing chamfered portion (51). The wing portion overhangs upward from a second rear end portion (47) of the lower cutter blade on an opposite side in a rotational direction, at both end portions (45) in a longitudinal direction. The wing chamfered portion is chamfered so that a wing outer end portion (53) of the wing portion is inclined from an upper surface to a lower surface.

Abstract: The rear shield of a walk-behind lawnmower extends downward from a rear end part of a housing and is in the form of an elastic sheet. The sheet has a thin-walled part formed in a central site in a heightwise direction between an upper end part and a lower end part, the upper end part being attached to the rear end part of the housing. The thin-walled part has a thickness set to be smaller than a thickness of other parts.

Abstract: A lawnmower capable of being switched between a bagging mode and a mulching mode is disclosed. The lawnmower includes a shutter mechanism provided on an internal peripheral surface of a housing which opens downward for storing a cutting blade. The shutter mechanism is switched, by the operation of the shutter mechanism, between a bagging mode for delivering cut grass from the housing to a cut grass storage container and a mulching mode for discharging the cut grass out below the housing. The shutter mechanism has a kicker on a shutter body positioned in the interior of the housing. The kicker guides the cut grass to the bottom of the housing during the mulching mode.
