Therefore, football lawns, park lawns, golf course lawns, school lawns, community lawns, and the like have been produced. In order to facilitate the management and maintenance of the lawn, lawn mowers have been invented to perform large-scale lawn trimming, weeding, and the like. The lawn mowers are classified into a push type lawn mower and a riding type lawn mower according to the use situation, and are suitable for small-sized lawns and large-sized lawns. The existing riding lawn mowers usually have the functions of collecting grass, breaking grass and discharging grass. For example, U.S. patent application No. 20190116732a1 discloses a riding mower having a grass discharge mechanism including a grass collection box pivotally mounted to a body and a lever pivotally mounted to the body and cooperating with the grass collection box. When the operating rod is rotated, the grass collecting box rotates under the action of the operating rod, so that the grass discharging opening of the grass collecting box faces downwards, and grass discharging is facilitated. Although the grass discharging mechanism can discharge grass, the operation is extremely laborious, especially when the grass collecting box is filled with grass.
In view of the above, there is a need for a new riding mower to solve the above problems.

The box body 331 comprises a bottom wall 301, a top wall 302 arranged opposite to the bottom wall 301, and a side wall 303 arranged between the bottom wall 301 and the top wall 302, wherein the bottom wall 301, the top wall 302 and the side wall 303 together enclose a containing cavity 304 for containing grass and a grass discharge opening 305 matched with the box door 332. The bottom wall 301 is inclined from an end away from the door 332 to an end close to the door 332, so that the grass in the receiving cavity 304 can slide out of the grass outlet 305 under the action of gravity. The side walls 303 include a rear wall 3031 mounted on the backrest 231 and side walls 3032 located at both sides of the rear wall 3031. The rear wall 3031 is provided with an observation window 3033 and a transparent plate 3034 sealing the observation window 3033. This is provided to facilitate the user to observe whether the container 331 is full of grass. Meanwhile, the observation window 3033 is arranged on the rear wall 3031, so that a user can observe the observation window only by turning the head, and the use experience of the user is effectively improved. The transparent plate 3034 may be a transparent plastic plate or a transparent glass plate. The side wall 3032 is provided with an opening 3035 matched with the communication pipe 34 so as to communicate the air duct with the accommodating cavity 304. The connection pipe 34 may be a hose, a bellows, etc., to which the present invention is not particularly limited. The box door 332 is pivotally mounted on the box body 331 through a door shaft 3321 and is matched with the grass discharge port 305 to close the box body 331. The door shaft 3321 is fixedly installed at one side of the door 332, and is configured such that the door shaft 3321 and the door 332 cannot rotate relatively, that is: the door shaft 3321 and the door 332 rotate together. A moment arm 3322 is also provided on one side of the door shaft 3321. The moment arm 3322 is fixedly mounted to the door shaft 3321 and is rotatable with the door shaft 3321. A ring button 3323 is further disposed on a side of the door 332 away from the door shaft 3321. In this embodiment, the door 332 is located on a side of the cabinet 331 away from the backrest 231, but in other embodiments, the door 332 may also be disposed on two sides of the cabinet 331, that is: the side wall 3032 is configured as a door. In addition, in the present embodiment, the door shaft 3321 is horizontally disposed, so that the door 332 can rotate up and down; however, in other embodiments, the door shaft 3321 may be vertically disposed, so that the door 332 can rotate left and right.
Referring to fig. 3 and fig. 1, the operating mechanism 40 is engaged with the door 332 and configured to: when the operating mechanism 40 is in the first state, the door 332 is opened by the operating mechanism 40 to discharge the grass in the grass collecting box 33; when the operating mechanism 40 is in the second state, the door 332 is closed to prevent grass collected by the grass collecting mechanism 30 from leaking out of the grass collecting box 33. The operating mechanism 40 includes an operating lever 41 and a link 42 pivotally mounted on the body 20 or the case 331 via a rotating shaft (not shown). The lever 41 includes a handle 411 and a follower arm 412 on both sides of the rotation shaft. The link 42 has one end mounted to the moment arm 3322 and the other end mounted to the driven arm 412. When the handle 411 is rotated, the driven arm 412 is rotated by the handle 411, so as to drive the link 42 to move, and the door shaft 3321 is rotated by the combined action of the link 42 and the moment arm 3322, so as to open the door 332. Referring to fig. 4, the opening angle α of the door 332 is preferably 30 degrees. In this embodiment, the end of the connecting rod 42 facing away from the driven arm 412 is mounted on the moment arm 3322, and the door shaft 3321 is rotated by the moment arm 3322, so as to open the door 332. However, in other embodiments, an end of the link rod 42 facing away from the driven arm 412 may also be directly mounted on the door 332, so that the door 332 rotates under the action of the link rod 42, and the door 332 is opened; at this time, the door shaft 3321 can rotate freely, that is: the door shaft 3321 and the door 332 can rotate relatively; of course, the door shaft 3321 may be fixedly installed on the door 332 or the box 331.
Referring to fig. 5 and 3, the locking mechanism 50 includes a latch assembly 51 cooperating with the door 332 and a control assembly 52 for controlling the latch assembly 51 to open or close. When the control assembly 52 is in the first state, the latch assembly 51 is out of contact with the door 332, such that the door 332 is in the unlocked state; when the control assembly 52 is in the second state, the latch assembly 51 is reset such that the door 332 is in the locked state. The locking assembly 51 includes a pivot 511 pivotally mounted on the body 20 or the case 331, and a locking device 512 fixedly mounted on the pivot 511, wherein the locking device 512 rotates along with the pivot 511. The control assembly 52 comprises a lever arm 521, an elastic element 522, a brake cable 523 and a brake lever 524 mounted on the handle 411. The moment arm 521 is fixedly mounted on the pivot 511 and can rotate along with the pivot 511. One end of the elastic element 522 is mounted on the arm 521, and the other end is mounted on the body 20 or the box 331. One end of the brake cable 523 is mounted at one end of the arm 521 away from the elastic element 522, and the other end is mounted on the brake lever 524. When the user pulls on the lever 524, namely: when the control assembly 52 is in the first state, the arm 521 rotates around the pivot 511 under the action of the brake cable 523 and drives the pivot 511 to rotate, so that the latch 512 rotates under the action of the pivot 511, at this time, the elastic element 522 is in an elastically deformed state, the latch 512 is out of contact with the buckle 3323, and the door 332 is in the unlocked state. When the user releases the brake lever 524, namely: when the control assembly 52 is in the second state, the moment arm 521 is reset by the elastic element 522, so as to drive the pivot 511 to rotate, and further the lock catch 512 rotates by the pivot 511, and the lock catch 512 is engaged with the ring catch 3323, so that the box door 332 is in the locked state.
When using the riding lawn mower 100 of the present invention, the brake lever 524 is first tightened so that the door 332 is in an unlocked state; then, the handle 411 is rotated to open the door 332, thereby facilitating grass discharge. When grass is discharged, the handle 411 is rotated to close the door 332, and then the brake handle 524 is released to lock the door 332.
Compared with the prior art, the grass discharging mechanism of the riding type mower 100 is simple and labor-saving in operation, so that the operation experience of a user is effectively improved.
Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
