Abstract

A garden tool power system comprises a motor, a reducer and a transmission shaft. The motor transmits the power to the transmission shaft through the reducer to drive wheels on the transmission shaft to rotate. The reducer comprises a pinion connected to an output end of the motor and a gear engaged with the pinion. The transmission shaft includes left and right shafts connected with each other through a connecting shaft. The gear mounted on the connecting shaft has at least two guiding rods transversely located thereon and two centrifugal blocks located between the guiding rods. Each guiding rod has a spring surrounded therearound and each spring located between two centrifugal blocks has two opposite ends respectively abutted against the corresponding portions of the centrifugal blocks. A fixing sleeve provided on the periphery of the centrifugal blocks is mounted on the transmission shaft and has buckle structures matching with the centrifugal blocks.

Claims (11)

1. A garden tool power system with automatic walking function comprising:

a motor;

a reducer; and

a transmission shaft;

wherein the motor transmits power to the transmission shaft through the reducer to drive wheels provided on the transmission shaft to rotate, and wherein the reducer includes a pinion connected to an output end of the motor and a gear engaged with the pinion, and wherein the transmission shaft includes left and right shafts connected with each other through a connecting shaft, and wherein the gear is mounted on the connecting shaft and has at least two guiding rods transversely located thereon and two centrifugal blocks located between the guiding rods, and wherein each of the guiding rods has a spring surrounded therearound and each of the springs is located between the two centrifugal blocks and has two opposite ends respectively abutted against a corresponding portion of the centrifugal blocks, and wherein a fixing sleeve provided on a periphery of the centrifugal blocks is mounted on the transmission shaft and has buckle structures matching with the centrifugal blocks.

2. The garden tool power system with automatic walking function, as recited in claim 1 , wherein the connecting shaft is respectively connected with the left and right shafts through transition fit.

3. The garden tool power system with automatic walking function, as recited in claim 1 , wherein the gear engages with the connecting shaft through clearance fit.

4. The garden tool power system with automatic walking function, as recited in claim 1 , wherein the pinion and the gear are arranged in a housing of the reducer, and wherein the housing comprises left and right housings assembled together through a bolt, and wherein the pinion is assembled to the left housing via a bearing, and wherein the left and right shafts are respectively connected to the left and right housings through corresponding bearings.

5. The garden tool power system with automatic walking function, as recited in claim 4 , wherein the fixing sleeve comprises a left fixing sleeve housed in the left housing and a right fixing sleeve housed in the right housing, and wherein the buckle structures are respectively defined on the left and right fixing sleeves.

6. The garden tool power system with automatic walking function, as recited in claim 5 , wherein the buckle structures are convex portions symmetrically defined on inner walls of the left and right fixing sleeves.

7. The garden tool power system with automatic walking function, as recited in claim 5 , wherein the left and right fixing sleeves are respectively mounted to the corresponding left and right shafts through corresponding positioning pins.
