  • Patent number: 5277017
    Abstract: A transformer unit mountable above the cutting deck of a mid-size, walk behind rotary mower, effectively converts the mower into a riding mower. The transformer unit is configured so as to allow an operator to be seated above the cutting deck, while still being able to comfortably control the mower by means of the original operator control handle, which is relocated by the transformer unit to the front end of the mower. The transformer unit comprises a support frame which is affixed to a cutting deck support structure. The support frame includes a vertically tiltable floor unit that extends over the top of cutting deck. An auxiliary operator control handle attachment fixture is mounted to the forward end of the support frame adjacent to the front end of the mower and is configured to engage and support the operator control handle, such that the operator control handle extends above the cutting deck adjacent to a position where the operator is to be situated.
