Abstract

The invention provides a blade and a lawn mower. The blade comprises a flat middle portion, and two end portions respectively disposed at two opposite ends of the middle portion, wherein a cutting edge is located on the end portion, and wherein each end portion includes a first end portion and a second end portion, and wherein the second end portion is located between the middle portion and the first end portion, and wherein along the longitudinal direction of the middle portion, the ratio of the length of the first end portion to the length of the blade in a horizontal plane is between 0.045 and 0.09. The blade and the lawn mower have advantages that grass can be smashed completely by the blade to achieve an optimal grass smashing effect, the structure is simple and the cost is low.

Claims (25)

1. A blade for a lawn mower, comprising:

a flat middle portion; and

two end portions respectively disposed at two opposite ends of the middle portion;

wherein a cutting edge is located on the end portion, and wherein each end portion includes a first end portion and a second end portion, and wherein the second end portion is located between the middle portion and the first end portion, and wherein along the longitudinal direction of the middle portion, the ratio of the length of the first end portion- to the length of the blade in a horizontal plane is between 0.045 and 0.0669.

2. The blade according to claim 1 , wherein two end portions are located at two opposite ends of the middle portion in a center-symmetric manner.

3. The blade according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second end portions are twisted relative to the middle portion along the longitudinal direction of the middle portion, and wherein the twisting direction of the first end portion is opposite to the twisting direction of the second end portion.

4. The blade according to claim 2 , wherein each end portion has a front surface and a rear surface opposite to the front surface, and wherein the cutting edge is located on the front surface and includes a first part located at the first end portion and a second part located at the second end portion, and wherein the first part of the cutting edge is lower than the second part of the cutting edge in height direction.

5. The blade according to claim 4 , wherein the rear surface has a first portion located on the first end portion and a second portion located on the second end portion, and wherein the first portion is higher than the second portion in height direction.

6. The blade according to claim 5 , wherein the second end portion twisted downwardly from the middle portion entirely forms a second slope surface located between the front and rear surfaces, and wherein the second part of the cutting edge is higher than the second portion of the rear surface in height direction.

7. The blade according to claim 6 , wherein the first end portion twisted upwardly from the second end portion entirely forms a first slope surface located between the front and rear surfaces, and wherein the first part of the cutting edge is lower than the first portion of the rear surface in height direction.

8. The blade according to claim 7 , wherein the first slope surface forms a first angle with respect to the middle portion, and the second slope surface forms a second angle with respect to the middle portion, and wherein the first angle is equal to the second angle.

9. The blade according to claim 8 , wherein the first and second angles are within the range from 8 degree to 15 degree.

10. The blade according to claim 7 , wherein along the longitudinal direction of the middle portion, the ratio of the length of the first end portion to the length of the second end portion in the horizontal plane is between 0.25 and 0.5, and wherein the length of the middle portion is two times of the length of the second end portion in the horizontal plane.

11. The blade according to claim 10 , wherein the ratio of the length of the first end portion to the length of the second end portion in the horizontal plane is 0.33.

12. The blade according to claim 10 , wherein the length of the blade in the longitudinal direction of the middle portion is less than 43 cm.

13. A blade for a lawn mower including:

a middle portion configured as a flat-plate shape; and

two end portions respectively disposed at two opposite ends of the middle portion;

wherein a cutting edge is located on the end portion, and wherein each end portion includes a first end portion and a second end portion, and wherein the second end portion is located between the middle portion and the first end portion, and wherein when the—length of the blade is greater than 43 cm, the length of the first end portion is less than or equal to 30 mm.

14. A lawn mower, comprising:

a body;

a prime mover received in the body;

a blade driven by the prime mover to cut grass and including:

a flat middle portion; and

two end portions respectively disposed at two opposite ends of the middle portion; wherein a cutting edge is located on the end portion, and wherein each end portion includes a first end portion and a second end portion, and wherein the second end portion is located between the middle portion and the first end portion, and wherein along the longitudinal direction of the middle portion, the ratio of the length of the first end portion- to the length of the blade in a horizontal plane is between 0.045 and 0.0669.
