MOWING MACHINE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240276908 titled 'MOWING MACHINE

The patent application describes a mowing machine that utilizes a memory, a processor, and a main body with drive and cutting blade motors to efficiently cut grass based on the state of grass growth in a target region.

  • The processor acquires information on grass growth, predicts the load on the cutting blade motor during cutting, sets a travel path based on this prediction, and controls the drive motor to follow the set path.
  • This innovative technology optimizes the mowing process by adjusting the machine's movement based on the anticipated load on the cutting blade motor.
  • By accurately predicting the load on the cutting blade motor, the mowing machine can efficiently cut grass without unnecessary strain on the motor.
  • The technology enhances the overall performance and effectiveness of the mowing machine by intelligently adapting to the grass growth conditions in the target region.
  • This patent application introduces a smart and efficient way to mow grass by dynamically adjusting the machine's travel path based on predicted load requirements.

Potential Applications: - Landscaping and lawn care services - Agricultural machinery for crop maintenance - Parks and recreational facilities maintenance

Problems Solved: - Inefficient grass cutting due to lack of real-time load prediction - Overloading of cutting blade motor leading to machine malfunctions - Uneven grass cutting due to inconsistent motor load management

Benefits: - Improved efficiency in grass cutting operations - Reduced maintenance costs for mowing machines - Enhanced precision in grass cutting for a well-maintained appearance

Commercial Applications: Smart Grass Cutting Technology: Enhancing Efficiency in Lawn Care and Landscaping Markets

Questions about Smart Grass Cutting Technology: 1. How does the processor acquire information related to the state of grass growth? 2. What are the potential cost-saving benefits of using this technology in lawn care services?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in smart mowing technology and its impact on the landscaping industry for improved efficiency and cost-effectiveness.


Original Abstract Submitted

a mowing machine, including: a memory; a processor coupled to the memory; and a mowing machine main body including a drive motor configured to drive a movement mechanism and a cutting blade motor configured to drive a cutting blade configured to cut grass, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire information related to a state of grass growth in a mowing target region, predict a load that will be applied to the cutting blade motor at a time of cutting the grass based on the acquired information related to the state of grass growth, set a travel path based on the predicted load, and control driving of the drive motor such that the mowing machine main body travels along the set travel path.
