Description

SPECIFICATION Rock and brick extracter The invention relates to a rock or brick extracter to fit on the back hoe or backacter of an Excavator To act as a rake, soil leveler, rubble loader, rubble remover, remover of soil from rubble.

This application describes improvements or modification in the invention described in my application No 8514124 dated 5th June 1985 and No. 8518765 dated 24 July 1985.

The extracter can be made in various size,s to fit small or large machines One embodiment of the invention is shown in the attached drawings Figure 1 Shows a rear elevation of the extractor resting on base Figure 2 Shows the extracter tipped into a rakeing position Figure 3 Shows the extracter tipped into the loading position Figure 4 Shows one of the tines which together form the extracter Figure 5 Shows a front perspective view of the extracter Figure 6 Shows one of the teeth used to tip the tines Reference A Shows the tines Reference B Shows the teeth for the tines Reference C Shows bars fitted between the tines Reference D Shows support bars for the tines Reference E Shows connecting points to Excavator Reference F Shows the base of tool Reference G Shows plates fixed to extracter Reference H Shows where teeth are fixed to the tines The gap left between the tines is for the dirt to filter though The Rock and Brick extracter is a tool made of plate steel which contains a number of similar Tines set just far enough apart to remove brick rubble or any other junk and to leave the site and soil clean The number of Tines depends on the size required if a Tine is thick as for a large excavator, the center of the Tines are further apart If a Tine is thin as for a small excavator then the Tine centers are nearer Between the Tines at the rear, rods will be fixed to stop too much rubble falling though when loading (As to Ref, C in drawings) Plates are fitted to the base of the tool and the rear to give strength where required All, so the plate at the rear can be used as a leveling blade (As to Ref, G in drawings) When the tool is set on its teeth it acts as a rake to pull forward, to lift, to reach back, and pull forward, to clean and level. (As in Fig. 2 in drawings) On the end of each Tine, teeth are fitted, to be replaced when required.

These,s can be made to shapes required The Tines are then fixed to a top plate on the top plate will be fixed the type of top required to fit any make of excavator (Ref, E in drawings)

CLAIMS 1. A Rock and Brick Extracter comprising of a number of tines in the form of a rake to fit any Excavator like any other attachment, to act as a tool and to be removed when not required. To be used as a rake and loading fork.

2. A Rock and Brick Extracter as stated in Claim 1 can be moved back and forward like a rake and load like a bucket.

3. A Rock and Brick Extracter has teeth which can be removed by bolts and is fixed to an Excavator by pins held in by clips.

4. A Rock and Brick Extracter as in Claim 1, is to fit like a tool as in Claim 2. To work and move like a Rake and load like a bucket, removable parts as stated in Claim 3.

A Rock and Brick Extracter substantially as described herein with reference to Figs. 1-6 of the accompanying drawings.
