Abstract

The pincers are operated by an articulated handle (2) and a push/pull rod (5) which is mounted movable on same. Only the front half (9) of the pincers is forked near the joint (5). The actual grippers (7) seizing the weeds are made from spring steel wire bent round in a thumb-shape. The pincers can be operated by spring tension and requires only one draw cable (4). When pulling or sliding the pincer handle (2) the grippers attached to the bottom of the pincer halves (8,9) open and close accordingly. USE/ADVANTAGE - The thin wire of the grippers can reach easily through the ground to seize the weed at the root and enables easier gardening.

Description

Neben der üblichen Unkrautbekämpfung mittels Spaten, Hacken und Harken ist man oft bestrebt, einzelne Pflanzen mitsamt der Wurzel herauszuziehen, besonders bei Nässe, um ein Wiederanwachsen zu vermeiden.In addition to the usual weed control using spades, Chopping and raking is often the goal, individual Pulling out plants together with the roots, especially when wet to prevent regrowth.

Es ist bekannt, daß das Unkrautzupfen zumeist mit den Händen und mit Schutzhandschuhen vorgenommen wird. Außerdem sind bekannt eine kurze Unkrautzange aus einem gebogenen, federnden Blechstreifen (DE 36 01 595) sowie langstielige Zangen mit Greiferbacken (DE 32 26 210, DE 40 10 144) oder mit Greiferkrallen (DE 39 19 375).It is known that weed plucking mostly with the Hands and with protective gloves. A short weed pliers are also known a curved, resilient sheet metal strip (DE 36 01 595) as well as long-handled pliers with gripper jaws (DE 32 26 210, DE 40 10 144) or with gripper claws (DE 39 19 375).

Bei der Arbeit mit den Händen oder einer kurzen Unkraut­ zange ist tiefes Bücken oder Niederknien erforderlich, die Pflanzen lassen sich oft schlecht anfassen, und es mangelt an der Fingerkraft. Hinzu kommt Verschmutzung besonders bei Nässe und Verletzungsgefahr in der Nähe von Dornen.When working with your hands or a short weed pliers require deep bending down or kneeling, the plants are often difficult to handle, and it lacks finger strength. There is also pollution especially when it is wet and there is a risk of injury nearby of thorns.

Die langstieligen Unkrautzangen mit Greiferbacken oder -krallen ermöglichen das Arbeiten in aufrecht er Körper­ haltung; sie sind jedoch für den Zweck entschieden zu aufwendig gebaut, unhandlich und schwer, so daß das gewünschte leichte und schnelle Unkrautzupfen garnicht möglich ist.The long-handled weed tongs with gripper jaws or -claws allow working in an upright body attitude; however, they are decided for the purpose too elaborately built, unwieldy and heavy, so that desired light and quick weed plucking not at all is possible.

In den meisten Fällen ist es erforderlich, das Unkraut an der Wurzel zu packen. Das ist bei der Verwendung von Greiferbacken schwierig und mangelhaft, weil zuviel Erde mit aufgenommen wird.In most cases, weeds are required to grab at the root. That is when using Gripper jaws difficult and poor because too much Earth is included.

Keines dieser Geräte läßt eine leichte Feinarbeit in engstehenden Pflanzenkulturen zu.Neither of these devices allows for slight fine work closely related crops.

Der im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, Pflanzen auch durch das Erdreich hindurch greifen und herausziehen zu können.The invention specified in claim 1 is Underlying problem, plants also through the soil reach through and pull out.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, daß sich der ausreichend dünne Draht der Greifer bei leichtem Auf- und Abbewegen der Zange durch das Erdreich drücken läßt und schnelles Arbeiten bei wenig gebeugter Körperhaltung und ohne viel Fingerkraft aufzuwenden möglich ist.The advantages achieved with the invention exist especially in that the sufficiently thin Wire the gripper with a slight up and down movement of the Let pliers push through the ground and fast Work with little flexed posture and without it is possible to use a lot of finger force.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist im Anspruch 2 angegeben. Diese Weiterbildung ermöglicht es, weiter entfernte und schlecht erreichbare Pflanzen herauszuziehen.Another embodiment of the invention is in Claim 2 specified. This training enables it, more distant and difficult to reach plants pull out.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben. Es zeigen:An embodiment of the invention is in the Drawing shown and will be described in more detail below described. Show it:

Fig. 1 Seitenansicht. An der Zangenhälfte 8 befindet sich fest am oberen Ende der Handgriff 1 und im Gelenk 3 gelagert das Gelenkende vom Zangen­ griff 2, an dessen freiem Ende eine leichte Zug- und Schubstange 4 eingehakt ist, die zur gelenkigen Verbindung 6 der im Zangengelenk 5 gelagerten Zangenhälfte 9 führt, so daß beim Ziehen oder Schieben des Zangengriffs 2 die unten an den Zangenhälften 8 und 9 befestigten Greifer 7 schließen beziehungs­ weise öffnen. Fig. 1 side view. On the pliers half 8 is fixed at the upper end of the handle 1 and in the joint 3 , the joint end of the pliers handle 2 , at the free end of a light pull and push rod 4 is hooked to the articulated connection 6 of the pliers half 5 mounted in the pliers joint 9 leads so that when pulling or pushing the pliers handle 2 the gripper 7 attached to the bottom of the pliers halves 8 and 9 close or open, respectively.
