Abstract
A mower including a cutting device connected in an articulated manner to a frame, the cutting device including two groups of mowing elements and each one of the two groups of mowing elements including drive elements. A transmission means transmits movement from a driving source to the drive elements of each one of the two groups of mowing elements. The transmission means includes an input means located at least approximately in the middle of the frame seen crosswise to the direction of work and movement distribution means for distributing the movement of the input means to the drive elements. The two groups of mowing elements are connected rigidly to one another, and the cutting device is connected to the frame by a deformable quadrilateral device. The drive elements of each one of the two groups of mowing elements include a transmission that extends over the one of the mowing elements located on the outside end of the corresponding group of mowing elements. Finally, the movement distribution means of each one of the two groups of mowing elements includes a distribution shaft with universal joints, the distribution shaft conducting movement to the transmission of the corresponding group of mowing elements.
