Abstract: A chute rotation control system for a snow thrower is disclosed. One example embodiment is a chute rotation control system configured to rotate a chute of a snow thrower, comprising: a chute rotation motor coupled to the chute via one or more gears, wherein the chute rotation motor is configured to alternately rotate the chute clockwise and counterclockwise; a left chute control configured to receive one or more left user inputs and to generate a left output signal; a right chute control configured to receive one or more right user inputs and to generate a right output signal; and a motor controller configured to receive the left input signal and the right input signal, to cause the chute rotation motor to rotate the chute counterclockwise in response to the left input, and to cause the chute rotation motor to rotate the chute clockwise in response to the right input signal.

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.
