A trimmer head which receives fixed-length trimmer line segments has a housing with a side wall forming an open end with opposed holes formed therein. The trimmer head receives an insert that is rotated by the main housing. The insert has an arcuate channel from the first hole to the second hole adjacent the opposed side of the insert body when the insert body is in a load/unload position. The insert body is rotatable and movable axially with respect to the housing to an operational position where the line segment is forced to take an indirect path between the first and second holes securing the line segment in place during use of the trimmer head.

Fixed line rotary head trimmer with quick friction rotational lock for string trimmer machine

A combination blower assembly and string trimmer whereby the string trimmer head is easily detachable without the use of any tools. The device includes a blower assembly that further includes an upper and lower housing mated together to form a volute-shaped cavity where an impeller with airfoil-shaped blades reside. The detachable string trimmer head is located under the lower housing of the blower assembly and is easily attached or removed from the blower assembly by a simple push and turn motion. The blower assembly further includes an air inlet and air inlet cover. When the air inlet cover is rotated to a position where the air inlet is open the blower assembly is operable and the string trimmer is inoperable. Furthermore, when the air inlet cover is rotated to a position where the air inlet is closed the blower assembly is inoperable and the string trimmer is operable.

Combination blower assembly and string trimmer

A starter mechanism for an internal combustion engine having a spring that is wound during the starting operation of the internal combustion engine. As the operator pulls the starter rope of the engine the starter spring begins to wind creating a force within the spring. Once the spring force overcomes the compression force of the piston the spring will unwind thereby turning the crankshaft of the engine and consequently starting the engine. The starter rope is returned to the housing of the starter mechanism by the use of a rope return spring.
