Abstract: A chute control assembly for a snow thrower having a housing, handle, and a chute includes a control mechanism, a connecting mechanism, and a guide mechanism. The control mechanism includes an actuator mechanism that allows an operator to manually control the orientation of the chute from a position spaced apart from the chute. The connecting mechanism transfers rotation of the actuator mechanism to the guide mechanism. The guide mechanism is attached to the chute and rotates and adjust the orientation of the chute in response to rotation of the actuator mechanism in order to change the direction that snow is thrown from the snow thrower.

Abstract: A lawnmower which includes a housing, and a passive cleaning assembly for removing detritus from the housing, the passive cleaning assembly being moveably mounted on the housing. The passive cleaning assembly can include a ground-contacting portion, which contacts the ground during use, thereby causing the cleaning portion to move with respect to the housing during movement of the lawnmower. Movement of the lawn mower with respect to the ground causes the cleaning portion of the passive cleaning assembly to move with respect to the housing and to thereby remove detritus from the housing.
