History of Lawn Mower
It's been around since 1805, when lawn mowers were manual and had no power support.
In 1805, Plucknett, an Englishman, invented the first machine to harvest grain and cut weeds. People pushed the machine and drove the rotary knife to cut grass through gear transmission. This is the prototype of lawn mower.In 1830, Bill Pudding, a British textile engineer, obtained the patent of the roller mower and won praise.
In 1832, Lan Sames Agricultural Machinery Company began mass production of drum mower.

In 1831, kabylie, a British textile master, obtained the world exclusive patent of lawn mower.
In 1833, Lan Sames Agricultural Machinery Company began mass production of drum-type lawn mowers.
In 19th century, this kind of lightweight and easy-to-control drum mower was widely used in green belts along traffic roads.
In 1902, Inns of London, an Englishman, made a drum mower powered by an internal combustion engine, and its principle has been extended to this day.
We usually see this kind of lawn mower on American country TV. It can be used to mow the lawn easily.
With the rapid rise of the lawn industry, China began to use the powered reciprocating mower in the 21st century. At the end of the 19th century, protecting a lawn was a physically demanding task. For example, in the big manor of Blenheim (a village in western Bavaria, Germany), if 200 workers are employed, then 50 of them are lawn maintenance workers. In the season when grassland grows wildly, it is necessary to cut grass every ten days. The lawn mowers hold very long tools (sickle: the blade is serrated, and you need to use a grindstone to keep it sharp) and cut grass in a row (actually, it works more like sawing grass with a saw). After the work is finished, the lawn is covered with sawn grass leaves, and then the grass leaves on the ground are picked up to feed the cattle and sheep on the farm, thus saving time and reducing the damage to the grassland. It consists of a parallel four-bar lifting device, a frame, a left and right wing weeding device and a whole machine deviation adjusting device.
