JP 2000-270649 A (claim 2, paragraph 0009, FIG. 5, FIG. 11)

  However, in the riding-type mower described in Patent Document 1, the second sled body is not supported sufficiently firmly because its front end and rear end are rotatably supported with respect to the mower housing. When the self-propelled vehicle body travels, there is a risk of vibration with respect to the moor housing, and there is also a possibility that the second sled body rubs against the moor housing and generates an abnormal noise.

  Therefore, in view of the problem given by the riding type mower according to the prior art exemplified above, the object of the present invention is that the sled body is moved up and down in conjunction with the height adjustment of the gauge wheel with respect to the moor housing. It is an object of the present invention to provide a riding mower that hardly vibrates when the self-propelled vehicle body travels.

A first characteristic configuration of the present invention is a riding-type grass mower in which a mower housing housing a cutting blade is connected to a self-propelled vehicle body so as to be movable up and down, and a height-adjustable gauge wheel is provided on the mower housing. There,
A sled body is fixed to the lower part of the left and right ends of the mower housing along the front-rear direction, and the pair of left and right gauge wheels are pivotally supported by the sled body.

  In the riding type mower according to the first characteristic configuration of the present invention, since the sled body itself is fixed to the mower housing, there is no possibility that the sled body vibrates during the traveling of the self-propelled vehicle body. Further, since the gauge ring is pivotally supported by the sled body firmly fixed to the moor housing as described above, the gauge ring is pivotally supported more easily and it is easy to perform a more accurate cutting height adjustment function. In addition, since the sled body is also used as a member for supporting the gauge wheel on the mower housing, an effect that a simple structure is sufficient as compared with the configuration in which the gauge wheel is supported on the moor housing via a dedicated member can be obtained. . Further, in this configuration, since the sled body itself is firmly fixed to the mower housing, the sled body can have a function as a side bumper.

  Another feature of the present invention is that the sled body is bolted by a bracket so that the relative height of the sled body can be changed.

  With this configuration, the height adjustment of the sled body and the gauge ring can be performed at the same time only by changing the mounting height of the bracket.

  Another feature of the present invention is that the gauge ring is pivotally supported by the bracket.

  In this configuration, the gauge ring is supported by the sled body in a manner that is pivotally supported by the bracket of the sled body, so that the bracket supports the sled body to the mower housing and the member that supports the gage ring to the sled body. It is also used for the simplification of the structure.

  Another feature of the present invention is that the leading end of the sled body is provided with a guide portion that is inclined upward in the front-rear direction, and the gauge wheel has a front end that is front and rear than the outer periphery of the gauge ring. It exists in the point provided in the position used as the direction center side.

  With this configuration, even when a convex stepped portion of the ground exists in the direction of travel of the sled body, the outer circumference of the gauge ring is lifted by the convex stepped portion before the guide portion of the sled body. The possibility that the tip of the body collides with a convex stepped portion of the ground and the ground and turf are shaved by the sled body is suppressed.
