  • Patent number: 5457846
    Abstract: A portable power blower includes a body and a handle mounted on a top of the body. The body includes a prime mover, a fan volute chamber, a fan housed in the fan volute chamber and attached to one end of an output shaft of the prime mover, and an air inlet of the fan volute chamber formed in front of the fan. A main guard member is so mounted as to cover one side surface of the fan volute chamber on which the air inlet is formed, and a gap for radially introducing external air into the air inlet is formed between a rear side of the main guard member and the one side surface. The gap is in open communication with atmosphere at a top portion of the body. A bottom guard member connected to the main guard member and the fan volute chamber covers bottom portions of the fan volute chamber and the prime mover, and a sub-guard member connected to the bottom guard member and the fan volute chamber covers sides of the prime mover which oppose the main guard member and the bottom guard member, respectively.

  • Patent number: 5383330
    Abstract: A hand-held edger is disclosed which is so constructed that the lower portions of the gear box and the safety cover member are prevented from directly scraping against the ground during trimming operation to enable abrasion thereof to be avoided, and that tendency to be caught by lawn grasses and liability to wobble are extremely reduced to enable improved operational properties to be attained. The hand-held edger comprises a supporting rod 14 one end of which is connected to a prime mover, a gear box 20 connected to the other end of said supporting rod 14, a rotary blade 22 which is driven by power transmitted from said prime mover via said gear box 20, a safety cover member 12 which covers said rotary blade 22, and a traveling wheel 17 journal-supported by a rear portion 12b behind said gear box 20, wherein a ring-shaped traveling auxiliary wheel 30 is rotatably mounted over the circumference of said gear box 20.
