Abstract
A rotary lawn mower cutting blade with reduced drag and improved cutting ability includes a central mounting section, intermediate sections, and outboard sections along a common longitudinal axis and disposed about a common center of rotation. The outboard sections include downward and inward projecting sections. The cutting blade also preferably includes cutting edges on the full extent of the leading edge of the outboard section including the downward and inward projecting sections. Additionally, the outer section can be twisted slightly to enhance airflow upward.
Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/706,165 filed Feb. 15, 2007 entitled, “Rotary Lawn Mower Cutting Blade.” The above application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a cutting blade for rotary lawn mowers.
- 2. Prior Art
- Conventional rotary lawn mower cutting blades are made of an elongated flat metal plate, rectangular in shape, with a central mounting portion and an outer portion having a leading beveled cutting edge, and a bend or twist of either the entire outer portion of the blade or just the trailing edge of the outer portion to generate airflow used to draw the uncut grass upward into the path of the cutting edge and to expel the cuttings from the cutting area. Raised teeth may be added to the trailing edge of the outer portion of the blade to produce a mulching action.
- The problem with present art rotary lawn mower cutting blades is that the central mounting portion is generally in the same plane as the cutting portion, resulting in lost energy as the central mounting portion passes over and impinges upon the top edge of the cut grass and residual clippings. Energy is wasted, efficiency of the lawn mower is impaired, and airflow through the cutting area is restricted.
- It is the object of this invention to provide a novel rotary lawn mower cutting blade which has improved cutting abilities and can operate with greater efficiency.
- According to the invention, a rotary lawn mower cutting blade which provides for improved cutting action with greater efficiency, comprises a central mounting portion, two oppositely extending intermediate portions connecting to outer portions which are in turn joined to downward-turned end portions which are in turn joined to inward turned cutting portions.
- According to the invention, the downward-turned end portions may be straight or curved and may be directed downward in a perpendicular orientation from the plane of the central mounting portion, or at some obtuse or acute angle therefrom. The downward-turned end portion may also be skewed to the axis of rotation of the cutting blade, which places the leading edge of the end portion at a greater or less distance from the center of rotation than the trailing edge.
- According to the invention, airflow can be enhanced during rotation of the blade by applying a slight twist to the intermediate or outer portion of the blade, the trailing edge of the outer portion, the trailing edge of the cutting portion, or some combination thereof .
- Reference will be made to the preferred embodiment, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawing figures. The figures are intended to be illustrative, not limiting. Although the invention is generally described in the context of this preferred embodiment, it should be understood that it is not intended to limit the scope of the invention to this particular embodiment.
- Certain elements in selected views of the drawings may be illustrated not-to-scale, for illustrative clarity. Elements of the figures can be numbered such that similar (including identical) elements may be referred to with similar numbers in a single drawing. Such relationships, if any, between similar elements in the same or different figures will become apparent throughout the specification, including, if applicable, in the claims and abstract.
- The structure, operation, and advantages of the present preferred embodiment of the invention will become further apparent upon consideration of the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a rotary lawn mower cutting blade according to the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of theouter portion 8 of the cutting blade shown inFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of a rotary lawn mower cutting blade according to the present invention; -
FIG. 4 is a partial perspective view of theouter portion 8 of the cutting blade shown inFIG. 3 . Areas in the respective foregrounds ofFIGS. 1-4 can be regarded as areas forward of the illustrated cutting blade. Areas in the respective background ofFIGS. 1-4 can be regarded as areas rearward of the illustrated cutting blade. - Referring now to
FIG. 1 andFIG. 2 , there is shown a rotarymower cutting blade 101 that is an embodiment of the present invention having acentral portion 2 which includes a central bore 1 for attachingblade 101 to a source of rotating power. The cutting blade is further provided withouter portions 7 which are joined to thecentral portion 2 byintermediate portions 8 along a common longitudinal blade axis. Thecutting portions 10, which have leadingcutting edges 6 andtrailing edges 5, are joined to theouter portions 7 through thedownward portions 9. Theouter portion 7 has atrailing edge 3 and thedownward portion 9 has atrailing edge 4. As seen inFIG. 1 , the central portions, intermediate portions, and outer portions can be generally planar and can be disposed generally in a common plane. The leadingcutting edges 6 of thecutting portions 10, which are beveled from the inner surface of thecutting portion 10 downward in this embodiment, are continued through thedownward portions 9 where the bevel direction becomes outward andouter portions 7 where the bevel direction becomes upward, however it of course may be understood that the direction of bevel and portions of the blade which are beveled to form a cutting edge can vary. - In this embodiment, the cutting blade is twisted slightly in the
intermediate portion 8. This will facilitate directing air upward during rotation of the cutting blade as air is directed upward along the surface of theouter portion 7 and thecutting portion 10. As an alternative,trailing edge 5 and/ortrailing edge 3 can be bent or twisted upward to create upward airflow during rotation of the cutting blade, and can also be formed into teeth as in U.S. Pat. No. 6,487,840 to create a mulching action of the grass clippings. - In this embodiment, the plane of the
downward portions 9 are perpendicular to the plane of thecentral portion 2, however this angular relationship may be acute or obtuse. Therefore, where in this specification and claims I employ the term “downward”, I intend an angular relationship which will result in a general downward projection. The plane of thedownward portion 9 can also be skewed or twisted in the vertical plane so as to cause thetrailing edge 4 to be further away from the center of rotation of the cutting blade than any other point on the surface of thedownward portion 9. This vertical twist will result in airflow being directed outward during rotation of the cutting blade which will improve removal of the grass clippings from the cutting area. -
FIG. 3 andFIG. 4 illustrates acutting blade 201 that is a second preferred embodiment of the invention. Thecutting blade 201 is substantially identical to cuttingblade 101, with the exception that thedownward portion 9 is curved rather than straight.Edge 11 that is shown as being intermediate ofedge 5 andedge 6 and which is labeled inFIGS. 2 and 4 and shown through the views can be regarded as an interior edge of the respective cutting portion on which it is included. As shown inFIGS. 1 and 3 , an interior edge of a first cutting portion can generally face an interior edge of a second cutting portion. - Compared to prior art designs, the present invention provides a cutting blade with improved energy efficiency by moving the central mounting portion and intermediate portions well above the cutting surface, improved cutting action by providing for multiple cutting edges, and a cutting blade which is economical to produce.
- While this invention has been described in the specification and illustrated in the drawings with respect to a preferred embodiment, it is understood that all changes and modifications that come within the spirit of the invention are desired to be protected. Undoubtedly, many variations or equivalents may be substituted for elements of the invention by one having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention most nearly pertains, and such variations are intended to be within the scope of the invention, as disclosed herein;
