ABSTRACT:
A resilient and flexible discharge deflecting chute for a lawn mower deck. A discharge deflecting chute utilizing a flexible sheet shaped into a chute-like form by a frame. A flexible, resilient discharge deflecting chute has memory characteristics and returns to shape even after substantial deflection from obstacle contact. Preferably, a flexible, resilient material selected for this discharge deflecting chute has sufficient stiffness to substantially maintain its shape in normal operation. The flexible, resilient material selected for this discharge deflecting chute has sufficient flexibility to deflect substantially when contacted by obstructions during mowing operations.
