Abstract: A rod mechanism for a garden tool having a main body includes a first rod pivotally connected to the main body and movable between an in-use position and a storage position. A locking component engages the main body to lock the first rod in one of the in-use position and the storage position. An actuator moves between a released position and a triggered position, the actuator when in the triggered position unlocking the locking component from the main body, the actuator when in the released position orienting the locking component so as to be lockable to the main body. A second rod connected to the first rod moves to a preset position allowing the actuator to move to one of the triggered position or the released position. A position sensor on the main body generates a sensing signal when the first rod pivots to at least one of the in-use position and the storage position.

Abstract: A handle assembly for a garden tool includes a housing having a gripping portion defining an extension direction, the housing defining a cavity for detachably mounting a battery pack, the battery pack being configured to be inserted into the cavity along the extension direction of the gripping portion. A related garden tool includes a link assembly; a working mechanism arranged at one end of the link assembly; and a power mechanism arranged at the other end of the link assembly. The power mechanism includes a gasoline engine with an electric starting system having a starting motor powered by the battery pack.

Abstract: A garden tool includes a base, a motor arranged on the base, a cutting tool drivingly connected with the motor, a power supply, a main control module electrically connected with the power supply and used for controlling the motor, and a tilt angle detecting module connected with the main control module. The tilt angle detecting module detects a tilt angle between the cutting tool and a horizontal plane. When the tilt angle is greater than a preset value, the tilt angle detecting module sends a shutdown signal to the main control module. The main control module turns off the power supply to stop the electric motor upon receipt of the shutdown signal. A related method of use is disclosed.

Abstract: A rod mechanism for a garden tool comprises a first rod pivotally connected to the main body of the garden tool and lockable at least in the in-use position or in the storage position; wherein the first rod has an actuator and a locking component; wherein the locking component is unlocked from the main body of the garden tool by triggering the actuator, and the locking component is locked up with the garden tool main body by releasing the actuator; wherein the rod mechanism also includes a second rod movably connected with the first rod; wherein while the second rod moves to a preset position, the actuator may be triggered or released; wherein the main body of the garden tool has a position sensor, which is configured to generate a sensing signal when the first rod rotates to the in-use position and/or the storage position.

Abstract: A technological method for synthesizing optically pure L-/D-lactide by using a biogenic guanidine catalysis method. The method of the present invention comprises: by using biogenic guanidine creatinine (CR) as a catalyst and L-/D-lactic acid (90% of mass content) as a raw material, synthesizing optically pure L-/D-lactide by using a reactive reduced pressure distillation catalysis method.
