摘要:
A string trimmer having a cutting head with a spool, where replacement cutting line can be wound onto the spool. The trimmer includes a powered winding button that rotates a motor in a reverse direction from its operation direction, and at a slower speed to wind the replacement cutting line.

A trimmer head for a trimmer having a shaft defining a rotation axis. The trimmer head comprising a housing including a main housing and a lower cover, and wherein the main housing contains a pair of opposed eyelets through which trimmer line is discharged. A spool encased within the housing, with a bump knob connected thereto, and having a passageway with opposed ends and extending from one side of the spool to another, the opposed ends being alignable with the eyelets to receive the line. A first set of a plurality of ramps located on an inside surface of the main housing and a second set of a plurality of ramps located within a center barrel of the spool. The two sets of ramps interact to control the direction of releasing line from the trimmer head and forcing indexing of the spool when the bump knob is bumped.

Line-winding spool for grass-cutting heads, comprising a central body provided with a central axis of rotation coinciding with the axis of rotation of the grass-cutting head when inserted into it, said central body having a circumferential side area on which there is defined the annular area where the cutting line is wound, said spool having at least one channel crossing said central body transversally, provided with two openings on opposite portions of said side area for the insertion of the cutting line, said at least one channel having two opposite first segments starting from said openings towards the inside of the central body, and a curved connection segment between said first segments having a concave shape with the concavity upwards, said central body defining, in said concavity, a cavity, whose bottom is at a lower axial height than the axial height of said openings, characterized in that said curved connection segment has a lower surface that is substantially continuous along all its extension so as to be substantially closed downwards, with respect to the outer environment, to allow a single passage of the line from a said opening towards the opposite opening without the line exiting from said central body.

A trimmer head in which a cutting line can be loaded to a spool includes a housing connectable to a driving shaft. A line outlet is disposed in the housing and the spool is connected to the housing. In a line winding mode, the spool includes a position where an end of a line leading channel is aligned with the line outlet and a cutting line may enter the line leading channel and will be in clearance fit with the line leading channel. When the spool is rotated with respect to the housing, a portion of the cutting line in the line leading channel is pressed tightly therein, and the portion of the cutting line extending from the line leading channel can be pulled toward the spool.
摘要:
A trimmer head assembly and the method of configuring the trimmer head assembly. The trimmer head assembly has a housing that attaches to a string trimmer machine. A spool is provided inside the housing. The spool rotates about an axis of rotation. The spool can move longitudinally along the axis of rotation between a first position and a second position. A ratcheting mechanism is provided between the trimmer head housing and the spool. When the spool is in its first position, the ratcheting mechanism enables the spool to continuously rotate about the axis of rotation in the direction opposite that in which the trimmer head assembly spins. The ratchet mechanism also prevents the spool from rotating within the housing in the same direction in which the trimmer head is spinning.
摘要:
An aerodynamic trimmer head for use in flexible line rotary trimmers having a plurality of aerodynamic elements defined by the upper and lower head surfaces that during rotation of the head, draw air downwardly about the trimmer drive mechanism onto the upper head surface and move the air outwardly from the head into the plane of the extended cutting line and at forward inclination in the direction of rotation. The downwardly moving air cools the trimmer drive mechanism and the outwardly and forwardly moving air reduces the drag on the head and the extended cutting line. The aerodynamic elements preferably include a plurality of troughs extending downwardly and forwardly along the upper head surface, a perimeter surface for deflecting air moved by the troughs into a generally horizontally extended zone of moving air about the extended cutting line and a plurality of dimples formed in a lower surface of the head.

A rotary cutter for a mower has a cord for cutting grass and the like by rotating itself; a reel for housing the cord and feeding the cord while intermittently rotating; a case for housing the reel; a cover for covering the case; and a pressing body protruding from the case. The pressing body is axially movable by being pressed, and intermittently rotating the reel. The reel and the pressing body are integrally constructed. Concave grooves for inserting the cord are provided in the reel in a radial direction and the cord is wound by fitting it to the concave grooves.

摘要:
A trimmer head for use in a flexible line rotary trimmer including a housing adapted to be operatively connected to the trimmer to effect rotation of the head and a spool operatively connected to the housing for rotation therewith. The spool defines at least one inwardly extending line receptor channel, preferably formed by a plurality of inwardly tapered walls so as to be polygonal in cross-section. So configured, the channel walls will securely grip the cutting line upon the line being inserted in the channel and wound about the spool. To provide uniform winding of the line, a plurality of cam, cam abutment and sliding surfaces are operatively connected to the housing and spool such that when the spool is manually rotated relative to the housing in the drive direction, the spool is caused to reciprocate axially within the housing evenly distributing the line about the body of the spool.
摘要:
A cutting head for a rotary trimmer is provided. The cutting head of the present disclosure provides a control mechanism for loading a spool member of the cutting head quickly and efficiently without having to disassemble the cutting head. In one embodiment, a control mechanism is provided in the cutting head interacting between a follower member and a spool member so as to provide for one way rotational loading of flails, e.g., cutting line, into the cutting head; in other words, to load the flails, the spool member is rotated continuously 360° in one direction only, e.g., clockwise. In another embodiment, a cutting head allows the flails to be loaded by a ratcheting-type operation, i.e., a back and forth rotational movement, which is less fatiguing and even more efficient in its loading operation.
