ABSTRACT:
A transmission for self-propelled walking lawn mowers includes a casing, an input shaft inserted into an opening formed in the casing, an output shaft disposed perpendicular to the axis of the input shaft, a drive gear mounted on the input shaft, a drive gear mounted on the output shaft, a power transmission gear mechanism for transmitting drive power from the input shaft to the output shaft, and bearing structures for supporting the input shaft. The bearing structures include a lower supporting structure disposed adjacently below the lower end of the input shaft, and the lower supporting structure includes a supporting member which projects from the inner wall of the casing to a position adjacently below the lower end of the input shaft, wherein a lower-end face of the input shaft and an upper face of the supporting member are engaged to hold the input shaft at its horizontal position, thereby reducing the height of a lawn mower.
