 この特許文献2に示された回転刃は、ナイロンコードが磨耗により延出長さが短くなったときには、保持部材に巻回されているナイロンコードを繰り出して延出長さを延長できる調整機能を備えているとともに、ガイド部材の外周より内方への雑草等の切断対象の進入がガイド部材によって阻止されることから、切断対象が高速旋回するナイロンコードの先端部分によって効率的に切断されるという機能を有する。 The rotary blade shown in Patent Document 2 has an adjustment function that allows the extension length to be extended by feeding out the nylon cord wound around the holding member when the extension length of the nylon cord is shortened due to wear. In addition, since the guide member prevents the cutting object such as weeds from entering the inside of the outer periphery of the guide member, the cutting object is efficiently cut by the tip portion of the nylon cord that rotates at high speed. It has a function.
 しかしながら、特許文献2に示された回転刃は、保持部材の構成が複雑で重量があり、かつ、高価とならざるをえないという難点がある。また、特許文献2に示された回転刃のナイロンコードの保持機構として特許文献1の構成を採用したのでは、軽量化が達成でき、かつ安価ともなるが、ナイロンコードの延出長さ調整ができず、使い勝手が悪くなるという問題がある。 However, the rotary blade shown in Patent Document 2 has a drawback in that the structure of the holding member is complicated, heavy, and expensive. In addition, when the configuration of Patent Document 1 is adopted as the nylon cord holding mechanism of the rotary blade shown in Patent Document 2, the weight reduction can be achieved and the cost can be reduced, but the extension length of the nylon cord can be adjusted. There is a problem that it is not possible and it becomes unusable.

 以下、本発明の好ましい実施の形態につき、図面を参照して具体的に説明する。 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.
 図1ないし図10は、本発明の一実施形態に係る草刈り機用回転刃A(以下、単に回転刃Aという)が用いられた草刈り機Bを示している。図1によく表れているように、草刈り機Bにおいては、操作管12の基端側には、駆動源としての小型エンジン10が連結されており、その回転出力が、後記する伝動軸(図示略)を介して操作管12の先端方に支持された、減速機構16aを内蔵するギヤボックス16から突出する回転刃取付け軸14に伝達される構成となっている。小型エンジン10としては、作業者の携帯性を考慮して、たとえば排気量が25cc程度のものが用いられる。回転刃取付け軸14の基端側大径部および先端側小径部に、それぞれ雄ネジ14a,14bが形成され、基端側の雄ネジ14aには、金属製の回転刃押さえ17が螺合されている。 FIG. 1 to FIG. 10 show a mower B using a rotary blade A for mowing machine (hereinafter simply referred to as “rotary blade A”) according to an embodiment of the present invention. As clearly shown in FIG. 1, in the mower B, a small engine 10 as a drive source is connected to the proximal end side of the operation tube 12, and the rotation output thereof is a transmission shaft (not shown). ) Is transmitted to the rotary blade mounting shaft 14 protruding from the gear box 16 having a built-in speed reduction mechanism 16a supported on the distal end of the operation tube 12. As the small engine 10, for example, an engine with an engine displacement of about 25 cc is used in consideration of the portability of the operator. Male screws 14a and 14b are formed on the base end side large diameter portion and the distal end side small diameter portion of the rotary blade mounting shaft 14, respectively, and a metal rotary blade holder 17 is screwed onto the base end side male screw 14a. ing.
 本実施形態に係る草刈り機Bは、次のようにして、操作レバー18の回動操作によって回転刃Aの支持角度を変更できるように構成されている。 The mower B according to the present embodiment is configured so that the support angle of the rotary blade A can be changed by rotating the operation lever 18 as follows.
 図1および図2に示すように、操作管12は、基端側の第1部分12aに対し、先端側の第2部分12bが、操作管12に套挿したコイルばね19によって常時先端方に付勢されながら伸縮可能に組み合わされている。操作管12には、先端が操作管12の先端から延出する可撓管20が内挿され、この可撓管20には、少なくとも先端が可撓性を有する伝動軸11が通挿されている。伝動軸11の回転駆動力は、上記ギヤボックス16から突出する回転刃取付け軸14に伝達される。第2部分12bには、操作レバー18が一定の抵抗を付与されつつ回動可能に支持されている。操作レバー18には、リール部18aが形成されており、操作レバー18を前後に回動することにより、一端を第1部分12aに連結したケーブル21の他端をリール部18aに巻き取ったり繰り出したりすることができるようになっている。操作レバー18をケーブル巻き取り方向に回動することにより、第2部分12bを上記コイルばね19の弾力に抗して操作管12の基端方向に引っ込め、操作管12の全長を短縮することができ、ケーブル繰り出し方向に回動することにより、第2部分12bをコイルばね19の弾力によって操作管12の先端方向に伸ばし、操作管12の全長を伸長させることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the operation tube 12 has a distal end side second portion 12 b that is always moved toward the distal end by a coil spring 19 inserted into the operation tube 12 with respect to the proximal end side first portion 12 a. Combined to be stretchable while being energized. A flexible tube 20 having a distal end extending from the distal end of the operation tube 12 is inserted into the operation tube 12, and a transmission shaft 11 having at least a distal end is inserted into the flexible tube 20. Yes. The rotational driving force of the transmission shaft 11 is transmitted to the rotary blade mounting shaft 14 protruding from the gear box 16. The operation lever 18 is rotatably supported by the second portion 12b while being given a certain resistance. The operation lever 18 is formed with a reel portion 18a, and by rotating the operation lever 18 back and forth, the other end of the cable 21 having one end connected to the first portion 12a is wound or fed out to the reel portion 18a. You can do that. By rotating the operation lever 18 in the cable winding direction, the second portion 12b can be retracted in the proximal direction of the operation tube 12 against the elasticity of the coil spring 19, and the total length of the operation tube 12 can be shortened. The second portion 12b can be extended in the direction of the distal end of the operation tube 12 by the elasticity of the coil spring 19 by rotating in the cable feeding direction, and the entire length of the operation tube 12 can be extended.
 上記操作管12の第2部分12bの先端部には、斜め下方に向けて延びるアーム12cが固定連結されており、当該アーム12cの先端には、上記ギヤボックス16が横方向軸22を中心として回動可能に支持されている。上記可撓管20およびこれに内挿された伝動軸11の全長は一定であるから、上記操作レバー18の操作により操作管12の全長が伸長させられると、可撓管20が操作管12の内部に引き込まれ、操作管12の全長が短縮させられると、可撓管20が操作管12の先端から押し出される。これにより上記ギヤボックス16およびこれに支持された回転刃Aは上記横方向軸22を中心として回動し、これにより操作管12に対する回転刃Aの角度を所望のように変更することができる。 An arm 12c extending obliquely downward is fixedly connected to the distal end portion of the second portion 12b of the operation tube 12, and the gear box 16 is centered on the lateral axis 22 at the distal end of the arm 12c. It is rotatably supported. Since the total length of the flexible tube 20 and the transmission shaft 11 inserted therein is constant, when the total length of the operation tube 12 is extended by the operation of the operation lever 18, the flexible tube 20 is connected to the operation tube 12. When the entire length of the operation tube 12 is shortened by being pulled inside, the flexible tube 20 is pushed out from the tip of the operation tube 12. As a result, the gear box 16 and the rotary blade A supported by the gear box 16 rotate about the lateral axis 22, thereby changing the angle of the rotary blade A with respect to the operation tube 12 as desired.
 上記操作管12の適部には、作業者は把持して操作管12を左右に振回操作するためのハンドル23が設けられている。 A handle 23 is provided at an appropriate part of the operation tube 12 so that the operator can hold it and swing the operation tube 12 left and right.
 草刈り機Bの構成や形式は、上記したものに限定されない。たとえば、実施形態のように操作管12の基端に小型エンジン10が直接的に取り付けられる場合もあるし、蛇腹管に内挿されたフレシキブルな伝動軸を介してたとえば背負い枠に搭載されるエンジンが連結される場合もある。また操作管の先端部に搭載した小型エンジンにより回転刃を直接的に回転駆動する形式のものもある。あるいは、車輪付きのフレームにエンジンおよび動力伝達機構を搭載し、これによって回転刃を回転駆動する形式のものもある。要するに、本発明は、適宜の動力源によって回転駆動される回転刃取付け軸を備えるものであれば、いかなる形式の草刈り機にも適用することができる。 The configuration and type of mower B are not limited to those described above. For example, the small engine 10 may be directly attached to the proximal end of the operation tube 12 as in the embodiment, or the engine is mounted on, for example, a back frame through a flexible transmission shaft inserted into the bellows tube. May be concatenated. There is also a type in which the rotary blade is directly driven to rotate by a small engine mounted at the tip of the operation tube. Alternatively, there is a type in which an engine and a power transmission mechanism are mounted on a wheeled frame, thereby rotating the rotary blade. In short, the present invention can be applied to any type of mower as long as it includes a rotary blade mounting shaft that is driven to rotate by an appropriate power source.
 上記回転刃取付け軸14には、本発明によって特徴づけられる回転刃Aが取付けられる。 Rotating blade A characterized by the present invention is mounted on the rotating blade mounting shaft 14.
 この回転刃Aは、図4ないし図7によく表れているように、上記回転刃取付け軸14に取付けられて回転させられ、かつ、コード状切断部材40を保持する保持部材100と、この保持部材100に対してその回転軸心(回転刃取付け軸14と同一軸心)を中心として相対回転可能なガイド部材500とを備えている。なお、以下の説明において、半径方向というときは、上記保持部材100ないし回転刃Aの半径方向を意味する。 As shown in FIGS. 4 to 7, the rotary blade A is attached to the rotary blade mounting shaft 14 and rotated, and the holding member 100 that holds the cord-like cutting member 40 and the holding member 100.

The holding mechanism 200 is arranged in the circumferential direction of the connecting portion 210 to which the large-diameter portion 41 at one end of the cord-like cutting member 40 is connected and the lower support plate portion 130, and the cord-like cutting member 40 is wound around. It basically has a plurality of hanging portions 220a, 220b, 220c, and 220d. As the cord-shaped cutting member 40, for example, one end of a nylon cord is crushed by heat or knotted to form a large-diameter portion, or a nylon cord material cut to a predetermined length A commercially available product having a cylindrical large-diameter portion 41 formed at one end thereof is used.
 上記連結部210は、図4、図7-9に良く表れているように、上部支持板部110の外周に凹入部112を設けることによって上方に臨ませた下部支持板部130に上記連結壁部120にもつながる壁部211を起立させ、この壁部211に、その上面に開放するスリット212を設けることにより形成されている。当該スリット212は、上記コード状切断部材40が通過でき、上記大径部41が通過できない幅となっている。 As shown in FIGS. 4 and 7-9, the connecting portion 210 is formed on the lower support plate portion 130 facing upward by providing a recessed portion 112 on the outer periphery of the upper support plate portion 110. The wall portion 211 that is also connected to the portion 120 is erected, and the wall portion 211 is formed by providing a slit 212 that opens on the upper surface thereof. The slit 212 has a width that allows the cord-shaped cutting member 40 to pass therethrough and prevents the large-diameter portion 41 from passing therethrough.

A straight line L connecting the rear position of the hanging portion 220d (fourth hanging portion) farthest from the connecting portion 210 from the rear position of the hanging portion 220a (first hanging portion) closest to the connecting portion 210. It is formed by providing a groove portion 122 that includes and opens outward in the radial direction of the holding member 100. In the present embodiment, the connecting wall portion 120 includes a protrusion 121 that protrudes between adjacent winding portions 220a, 220b, 220c, and 220d (the protrusion 121 corresponds to each roller in the upper support plate 110). The protrusions 113 formed on the outer periphery of the upper support plate 110 are provided by providing the notches 111 at the upper position of the shaped member 221). 121 or the connecting wall 120 is dug inward in the radial direction so that the bottom 122a has a groove 122 extending linearly from a position behind the first hook 220a to a position behind the fourth hook 220d. Forming. The bottom 122a of the groove 122 does not necessarily have to be linear, and may be a groove formed deeper as long as the straight line L is included. The vertical width of the groove 122 corresponds to the diameter of the cord-like cutting member 40, and is preferably set to a vertical width that can restrain the cord-like cutting member 40 fitted in the groove 122 in the vertical direction.
 本実施形態ではまた、上記保持機構200に、上記掛け回し部220a,220b,220c,220dに掛け回されたコード状切断部材40が上記220a,220b,220c,220dから離脱するのを防止する第1の離脱防止手段410および第2の離脱防止手段420が設けられている。第1の離脱防止手段410は、上部支持板部110における各掛け回し部220a,220b,220c,220dの上位位置に切欠き部111を設けることにより上部支持板部110の外周に形成される突出部113が、当該第1の離脱防止手段410(離脱防止壁)として機能する。上記したように、突出部113の下面とローラ状部材221(掛け回し部220a,220b,220c,220d)の上端との間には、コード状切断部材40が横方向に通過しうる程度の隙間Sが形成される。第2の離脱防止手段420については、上記装着容易化手段300として形成した溝部122が当該第2の離脱防止手段420としても機能する。 In this embodiment, the holding mechanism 200 also prevents the cord-like cutting member 40 hung around the hung portions 220a, 220b, 220c, 220d from being detached from the 220a, 220b, 220c, 220d. One detachment prevention means 410 and a second detachment prevention means 420 are provided. The first detachment preventing means 410 is a protrusion formed on the outer periphery of the upper support plate portion 110 by providing a notch portion 111 at an upper position of each of the hanging portions 220a, 220b, 220c, 220d in the upper support plate portion 110. The portion 113 functions as the first detachment prevention means 410 (detachment prevention wall). As described above, there is a gap between the lower surface of the protruding portion 113 and the upper end of the roller-like member 221 (the hung portions 220a, 220b, 220c, and 220d) that allows the cord-like cutting member 40 to pass in the lateral direction. S is formed. As for the second detachment preventing means 420, the groove 122 formed as the attachment facilitating means 300 also functions as the second detachment preventing means 420.
 本実施形態ではさらに、連結部210に連結されたコード状切断部材40がこの連結部210から容易に離脱するのを防止する第3の離脱防止手段430が設けられている。この第3の離脱防止手段430は、連結部210を形成する壁部211と、上記第1の掛け回し部220aとの間に、連結壁部120から半径方向外方に突出する凸部123を設け、連結部210に基端が連結されたコード状切断部材40が当該凸部123を回ってから第1の掛け回し部220aの背後に向かうようにしている。 In the present embodiment, a third detachment preventing means 430 for preventing the cord-like cutting member 40 connected to the connecting portion 210 from easily detaching from the connecting portion 210 is further provided. The third detachment preventing means 430 includes a convex portion 123 protruding outward in the radial direction from the connecting wall portion 120 between the wall portion 211 forming the connecting portion 210 and the first hanging portion 220a. The cord-shaped cutting member 40 having the base end connected to the connecting portion 210 goes around the convex portion 123 and then goes to the back of the first hanging portion 220a.
 図4、図7から分かるように、本実施形態の保持部材100は、中心を挟んで反対側に位置する2か所の連結部210どうしを結ぶ直径に関し、左右対称に構成されている。これにより、コード状切断部材40を連結部210から時計回り方向の経路で掛け回し部220a,220b,220c,220dに掛け回すこともできるし、逆に、連結部210から反時計回りの経路で掛け回し部220a,220b,220c,220dに掛け回すこともできる。このような構成により、回転刃Aの回転方向に応じて、コード状切断部材40を適切に装着することができる。 As can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 7, the holding member 100 of the present embodiment is configured symmetrically with respect to the diameter connecting the two connecting portions 210 located on the opposite side across the center. As a result, the cord-shaped cutting member 40 can be hung from the connecting portion 210 along the clockwise route to the hung portions 220a, 220b, 220c, 220d, and conversely, from the connecting portion 210 along the counterclockwise route. It can also be hung around the hung portions 220a, 220b, 220c, and 220d. With such a configuration, the cord-shaped cutting member 40 can be appropriately mounted according to the rotation direction of the rotary blade A.
 ガイド部材500は、中心筒部511およびこの中心筒部511の下端から延出する円形ディスク部520を備え、この円形ディスク部520は、保持部材100の外周と対応する付近までは水平に延び、それより外周側は、上方に変位させられている。このように、本実施形態におけるガイド部材500は、その外径が保持部材100の最大外径より大となっている。この実施形態においては、中心筒部511付近は金属によって形成され、円形ディスク部520のその余の部分は樹脂によって形成されている。このガイド部材500における中心筒部511の内面には、軸方向に重ねた2個のベアリング530がその外輪531を圧入することにより保持されている。このガイド部材500は、上側のベアリング530の内輪532を保持部材100のボス部102の下面に当接させた状態で、これらベアリング530および保持部材100のボス部102の中心孔101を通したネジ軸15の先端雌ネジ部を回転刃取付け軸14の先端側雄ネジ14bにねじ込むことにより、当該ネジ軸15に対し、その軸線(回転刃取付け軸14の軸線)を中心として相対回転可能に支持される。同時に、保持部材100が回転刃取付け軸14に対し、相対回転不能に支持される。 The guide member 500 includes a central cylindrical portion 511 and a circular disc portion 520 extending from the lower end of the central cylindrical portion 511. The circular disc portion 520 extends horizontally to the vicinity corresponding to the outer periphery of the holding member 100, The outer peripheral side is displaced upward. Thus, the guide member 500 in the present embodiment has an outer diameter larger than the maximum outer diameter of the holding member 100. In this embodiment, the vicinity of the central cylinder portion 511 is made of metal, and the remaining portion of the circular disc portion 520 is made of resin. Two bearings 530 stacked in the axial direction are held on the inner surface of the central cylindrical portion 511 of the guide member 500 by press-fitting the outer ring 531. The guide member 500 is a screw that passes through the center hole 101 of the bearing 530 and the boss portion 102 of the holding member 100 in a state where the inner ring 532 of the upper bearing 530 is in contact with the lower surface of the boss portion 102 of the holding member 100. By screwing the tip female screw portion of the shaft 15 into the tip-side male screw 14b of the rotary blade mounting shaft 14, the screw shaft 15 is supported so as to be relatively rotatable around the axis (axis of the rotary blade mounting shaft 14). Is done. At the same time, the holding member 100 is supported so as not to rotate relative to the rotary blade mounting shaft 14.
 コード状切断部材40は、図10に示すように、その先端側から上記凸部123と第1の掛け回し部220aとの間に差し込み、上記溝部122を通って先端が第4の掛け回し部220dの背後からさらに半径方向外方へ延出するようにし、基端部側を上記凸部123の外側を回した上で、上記壁部211の上面からスリット212に嵌め込み、最後に大径部41が壁部211の側面に係止されるように先端側を引っ張ることにより、保持機構200に保持される。上記したように、装着容易化手段300を形成する溝部122が第1の掛け回し部220aの背後位置から第4の掛け回し部220dの背後位置までの直線Lを包含しているため、上記のようにコード状切断部材40を曲げたりすることなく差し込むだけで、容易に必要な位置に導くことができ、また、上記壁部211のスリット212に嵌め込むだけで連結部210に連結することができ、コード状切断部材40の装着が極めて簡単に行える。装着状態では、第1の離脱防止手段410である上記突起部121(離脱防止壁)および第2の離脱防止手段420として機能し得る上記溝部122により、各掛け回し部220a,220b,220c,220dからのコード状切断部材40の離脱が防止される。また、コード状切断部材40の基端部は、第3の離脱防止手段430を形成する上記凸部123により強制的に屈曲させられた状態で上記スリット212に上から嵌め込まれているため、スリット212から容易に離脱することはない。 As shown in FIG. 10, the cord-shaped cutting member 40 is inserted between the convex portion 123 and the first hanging portion 220 a from the tip end side, and the tip is passed through the groove portion 122 to the fourth hanging portion. 220d is further extended outward in the radial direction from the rear side, and the base end portion is turned outside the convex portion 123, and then fitted into the slit 212 from the upper surface of the wall portion 211, and finally the large diameter portion. By pulling the distal end side so that 41 is locked to the side surface of the wall portion 211, it is held by the holding mechanism 200. As described above, since the groove portion 122 forming the attachment facilitating means 300 includes the straight line L from the back position of the first hooking portion 220a to the back position of the fourth hooking portion 220d, Thus, the cord-like cutting member 40 can be easily guided to a required position by simply inserting it without bending, and can be connected to the connecting portion 210 simply by being fitted into the slit 212 of the wall portion 211. The cord-shaped cutting member 40 can be mounted very easily. In the mounted state, the hooks 220a, 220b, 220c, and 220d are provided by the protrusion 121 (detachment prevention wall) that is the first detachment prevention means 410 and the groove 122 that can function as the second detachment prevention means 420. The cord-like cutting member 40 can be prevented from being detached from. Further, the base end portion of the cord-shaped cutting member 40 is fitted from above into the slit 212 in a state where it is forcibly bent by the convex portion 123 forming the third detachment preventing means 430. It does not easily leave 212.
 コード状切断部材40は、磨耗によって次第に短くなる。この場合には、次のようにしてコード状切断部材40の延出長さを延長することができる。すなわち、当初第4の掛け回し部220dに掛け回されていたコード状切断部材40を、図7において仮想線で表すように、第3の掛け回し部220cに掛け回し直す。本実施形態では、各ローラ状部材221の上端と上部支持板部110との間にコード状切断部材40が横方向に通過しうる隙間Sが形成されており、かつ上部支持板部110の外周部に各ローラ状部材221を上方に臨ませる切欠き部111が形成されているので、ローラ状部材221からコード状切断部材40を掛け外す作業、および、隣のローラ状部材221に掛け回す作業を、容易に行える。このようにして、コード状切断部材40の延出長さは、隣り合うローラ状部材221間の距離に相当する長さ延長される。コード状切断部材40の先端が再び磨耗して延出長さが短くなった場合には、上記と同様の操作をしてコード状切断部材40を第3の掛け回し部220cから第2の掛け回し部220bに掛け回し直せばよい。コード状切断部材40の先端がさらに磨耗して延出長さが短くなった場合には、同様にして、コード状切断部材40を第2の掛け回し部220bから第1の掛け回し部220aに掛け回し直せばよい。第1の掛け回し部220aに掛け回した状態においてさらに延出長さが短くなった場合には、コード状切断部材40を交換することになるが、コード状切断部材40は、大径部41を引っ張って引き抜くことにより、容易に取り外すことができるし、新たなコード状切断部材40を上記したように容易に装着することができる。 The cord-shaped cutting member 40 becomes gradually shorter due to wear. In this case, the extension length of the cord-shaped cutting member 40 can be extended as follows. That is, the cord-shaped cutting member 40 that has been initially wound around the fourth hooking portion 220d is looped around the third hooking portion 220c as shown by the phantom line in FIG. In the present embodiment, a gap S through which the cord-like cutting member 40 can pass in the lateral direction is formed between the upper end of each roller-like member 221 and the upper support plate portion 110, and the outer periphery of the upper support plate portion 110. Since the notches 111 are formed so that each roller-like member 221 faces upward, the work of detaching the cord-like cutting member 40 from the roller-like member 221 and the work of hanging around the adjacent roller-like member 221 Can be easily performed. In this way, the extension length of the cord-like cutting member 40 is extended by a length corresponding to the distance between the adjacent roller-like members 221. When the distal end of the cord-like cutting member 40 is worn again and the extension length is shortened, the cord-like cutting member 40 is operated from the third hooking portion 220c to the second hook by performing the same operation as described above. What is necessary is just to hang around the rotation part 220b again. When the distal end of the cord-like cutting member 40 is further worn and the extension length is shortened, the cord-like cutting member 40 is similarly changed from the second hanging portion 220b to the first hanging portion 220a. Just hang it around. When the extension length is further shortened in the state of being hung around the first hanging portion 220a, the cord-like cutting member 40 is replaced. By pulling and pulling out, it can be easily removed, and a new cord-like cutting member 40 can be easily attached as described above.
 草刈り機Bを用いて草刈り作業を行う際には、たとえば、スロットルレバーを操作するなどして小型エンジン10のスロットルの開度を上げると、小型エンジン10の回転出力により、回転刃Aのうち、保持部材100ないしコード状切断部材40が回転させられる。エンジンのスロットルの開度を調節することにより、コード状切断部材40の回転数を調節することができる。エンジンの回転出力は、伝動軸13からギヤボックス16内の減速機構16aにより減速され、回転刃取付け軸14を介して保持部材100ないしコード状切断部材40へと伝えられる。保持部材100ないしコード状切断部材40の回転数は、たとえば5,000~6,300rpmに達する。回転刃Aの外径(ガイド部材500の外径)をたとえば300mmとすると、コード状切断部材40の先端部の周速は優に350km/hに達する。この回転刃Aを地面に沿って移動させてゆくと、雑草等の比較的軟質細状の物体は、ガイド部材500によってそれ以上の半径方向内方への進入が阻止され、高速で旋回するコード状切断部材40による横方向からの強烈な衝突を受け、その衝撃によって難なく切断される。コード状切断部材40は、直径が高々3mm程度であり、かつ軽量であるが、先端部の周速が上記のようにきわめて高速であるため、軟質である雑草等の茎を切断するのには十分な運動エネルギを有しているのである。 When mowing using the mower B, for example, if the throttle opening of the small engine 10 is increased by operating a throttle lever or the like, the rotation output of the small engine 10 causes the rotary blade A to be held. The member 100 or the cord-shaped cutting member 40 is rotated. The rotational speed of the cord-like cutting member 40 can be adjusted by adjusting the throttle opening of the engine. The rotational output of the engine is decelerated from the transmission shaft 13 by the speed reduction mechanism 16 a in the gear box 16, and is transmitted to the holding member 100 or the cord-shaped cutting member 40 via the rotary blade mounting shaft 14. The rotation speed of the holding member 100 or the cord-shaped cutting member 40 reaches, for example, 5,000 to 6,300 rpm. When the outer diameter of the rotary blade A (the outer diameter of the guide member 500) is, for example, 300 mm, the peripheral speed of the distal end portion of the cord-shaped cutting member 40 easily reaches 350 km / h. When the rotary blade A is moved along the ground, a relatively soft and thin object such as weed is prevented from entering further inward in the radial direction by the guide member 500, and the cord turns at high speed. In response to a strong collision from the lateral direction by the cutting member 40, it is cut without difficulty by the impact. The cord-shaped cutting member 40 has a diameter of about 3 mm at most and is lightweight. However, since the peripheral speed of the tip is extremely high as described above, it is necessary to cut a soft stalk such as weed. It has enough kinetic energy.

However, the number of the wrapping portions 220a, 220b, 220c, and 220d in each region may be any number as long as it is plural. Alternatively, the holding member 100 may have three or more circumferential regions, and the number of the cord-shaped cutting members 40 extending from the holding member 100 may be three or more.
 実施形態に係る回転刃Aにおいてはまた、保持部材100ないし回転刃取付け軸14に対して相対回転可能なガイド部材500を設けているが、このガイド部材500を設けるかどうかは、選択事項である。 In the rotary blade A according to the embodiment, the guide member 500 that can rotate relative to the holding member 100 or the rotary blade mounting shaft 14 is also provided. Whether or not the guide member 500 is provided is a matter of choice. .
