A machine for cutting grass and the like of the type comprising a frame (1a) to which are made integral an operating engine (2), a driving seat (3), means (4) for steering the machine and a front grass-cutting plate (60), characterized in that such grass-cutting plate (60) comprises at least one or more pairs of cutting blades (61) made to rotate via means (2a, 63, 66, 67, 61a) of transmission of the drive from engine (2) and a guard (62) for protecting such cutting blades, which is extended toward the middle part of the machine by a duct (63) capable of engaging a cut-grass collecting container (9) located centrally with respect to the axes of rotation of front wheels (7) and rear wheel (8) of the machine and located in the lower position grazing the ground as shown in FIG. 3 , the action of pushing the cut grass toward such container being exerted by the pressure generated by the rotation of cutting blades (61 ).
A machine for cutting grass, comprising a frame to which are connected an operating engine, a driving seat, means for steering the machine and a front grass-cutting plate, said grass-cutting plate including at least one pair of cutters and a guard for protecting said cutters which is extended toward the middle part of the machine by a duct, said duct capable of engaging a cut-grass collecting container located centrally with respect to the axes of rotation of front wheels and rear wheels of the machine, and means for transmitting the drive from said engine to rotate said pair of cutters, said transmitting means including at least a pair of universal joints consisting respectively of two tubular members telescopically connected to one another and capable of allowing shifting parallel to itself of a horizontal cutting plane of said cutters, the rotation of said cutters generating and exerting a pressure on cut grass thereby pushing the cut grass toward said container.
