Abstract

The invention relates to a device which can be fitted onto a lawnmower for gathering up dead leaves. It consists of a steel rotor 1 and of a sheet metal flange 4. The device according to the invention is especially intended for gathering up dead leaves or other lightweight refuse lying on the ground. It is used over all grounds which are accessible to a lawnmower and particularly over grassy grounds or grounds covered with gravel where conventional means do not give satisfaction. The device according to the invention operates by suction.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La présente invention a pour objet,à titre de produit industriel nouveau,un dispositif qui s'adapte aux tondeuses à gazon permettant à celles-ci de ramasser les feuilles mortes ou autres détritus légers 3on- chant le sol.DESCRIPTION
The subject of the present invention is, as a new industrial product, a device which adapts to lawn mowers enabling them to pick up dead leaves or other light detritus on the ground.

Sur un sol herbeux ou recouvert de graviers,le ramassage des feuilles mortes n'est pas toujours commode pour peu que les feuilles mortes soient de petites dimensions. (jujubier,saule pleureur,prunier,bouleau...)
Le dispositif objet de la présente invention est remarquable en ce qu'il est adaptable à toutes tondeuses à gazon, à couteau horizontal ro tatif,équipée d'un panier(9)pour la réception du gazon coupé.On grassy ground or covered with gravel, the collection of dead leaves is not always convenient as long as the dead leaves are small. (jujube, weeping willow, plum, birch ...)
The device which is the subject of the present invention is remarkable in that it is adaptable to all lawn mowers, with a rotary rotary knife, equipped with a basket (9) for receiving the cut grass.

Le montage du dispositif, objet de l'invention,est réalisable par l'utilisateur,en quelques minutes. The device, object of the invention, can be assembled by the user in a few minutes.

Une forme d'exécution de l'invention est décrite ci-après,à titre indicatif et nullement limitatif,en se référant aux dessins annexés. An embodiment of the invention is described below, by way of indication and in no way limiting, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Le dispositif abjet de l'invention comporte:
-un rotor en acier(I)qui s'adapte à la place du couteau de la tondeuse,et sur lequel sont fixées deux ailettes(2)(3).Le rotor est équilibré dynamiquement.The device subject of the invention comprises:
-a steel rotor (I) which adapts to the place of the mower knife, and on which two fins (2) (3) are fixed. The rotor is dynamically balanced.

-un flasque en t81e(4)au centre duquel est pratiqué un orifice circulaire(5),fixé le plus hermétiquement possible par son rebord perforé(6)(7),à la périphérie inférieure du carter(8)de la tondeuse-.La forme du flasque est particulière à chaque modèle de tondeuse. -a flange in t81e (4) in the center of which is formed a circular orifice (5), fixed as tightly as possible by its perforated edge (6) (7), at the lower periphery of the casing (8) of the mower-. The shape of the flange is specific to each model of mower.

La figure I représente le rotor en vue horizontale avec ses deux ailettes(2)(3).  Figure I shows the rotor in horizontal view with its two fins (2) (3).

La figure 2 représente le rotor en vue de dessus.Le trou central(II) et la largeur de la pièce(I)dolvent correspondre exactement aux dimen nions du couteau de la tondeuse. et s'adapter parfaitement sur l'embase (12)de l'arbre moteur. Figure 2 shows the rotor in top view. The central hole (II) and the width of the part (I) must correspond exactly to the dimensions of the mower blade. and fit perfectly on the base (12) of the motor shaft.

La figure 3 représente le flasque(4)en vue horizontale suivant coupe  Â.Il présente un rebord(7)perforé(6 > pour assurer sa fixation sur le carter(8)de la tondeuse. Figure 3 shows the flange (4) in horizontal view along section  Â.Il has a flange (7) perforated (6> to ensure its attachment to the housing (8) of the mower.

La figure 4 représente le flasque(4)en vue de dessus.L'dpaisseur de la tble est volontairement exagérée pour la clarté du dessin. 4 shows the flange (4) in top view. The thickness of the table is deliberately exaggerated for the clarity of the drawing.

La figure 5 représente schématiquement le dispositif monté sur la tondeuse.Le carter(S) et le flasque(4)sont en coupe. Figure 5 shows schematically the device mounted on the mower. The casing (S) and the flange (4) are in section.

Il est bien entendu que l'invention n'est pas rigoureusement limitée à la présente description qui constitue seulement un exemple auquel des modifications mineures peuçent être apportées sans qu'on s'écarte du principe de fonctionnement de l'invention. It is understood that the invention is not strictly limited to the present description which constitutes only an example to which minor modifications can be made without departing from the operating principle of the invention.

Le rotor(I)peut comporter plus de deux ailettes,sa forme et ses dimensions sont en rapport direct avec la forme intéreure du carter(8) de la tondeuse. The rotor (I) may comprise more than two fins, its shape and its dimensions are directly related to the internal shape of the casing (8) of the mower.

Le flasque(4)peut etre fixé au carter(8) par divers procédés.Pour un bon fonctionnement du dispositif selon l'invention il est essentiel que l'air centrifugé par les ailettes(2)(3)du rotor(I)ntait d'autre issue que l'entrée(IO)du panier(9)  The flange (4) can be fixed to the casing (8) by various methods. For proper functioning of the device according to the invention it is essential that the air centrifuged by the fins (2) (3) of the rotor (I) is other way out than the basket (9) entry (IO)
